I am actually doing a second round right now with heavier weights and doing more of the advanced moves.

Here are my results from the first round:

Hi everyone. I'm doing body revolution. I do my main excersize in the morning and extra cardio in the evening. I'm starting week 2. I can't see changes yet as it's so early. Do you mind ladies if I add you ? It would be much easier if from time to time I could write to someone that does the same program. Also what is T25?

Thank you

It's the new(ish) Shaun T program. The guy who did Insanity. It's a most cardio workout that's the same length of time as Body Revolution, but it's non-stop, high intensity (sometimes with weights now that I'm in Beta) and it's super fun. I've seen more fat loss with this program than any other I've done. I lose weight slowly and still do, but I'm losing faster and my body shape is changing more with T25. But I love the weights in Body Revolution, so I refused to give it up!

I'm just finishing up week 1 tomorrow so please add me as well. There is a pretty active group that started the beginning of January that I joined, but since I just started last week, I'm lagging behind most of the members. However, It's nice to see their posts so I can know what's pain is coming my way. I'll post the link to the group in a few minutes in casae you want to join as well.

Since it has less weights do you find you are still getting toned? I like weights better than cardio but I plan on rotating between the two programs if I get T25. Do you know if the Gamma phase is more weights or cardio?

I'm definitely getting toned. Especially in the legs. I also wear weight gloves to get some extra toning in my arms. Beta has weights, but is still a lot of cardio. Gamma is A LOT of weights with cardio. Only Speed 3.0 doesn't use the weights. But you're still getting your heart rate up and moving a lot. But I would still say the majority of the time in the workouts is still cardio. And even with the weights you don't do all the different types of moves that you would do in Body Revolution. There's a lot more variety as far as weights are concerned in Body Revolution. Especially with combo moves and such.

I'd forgotten how much I hate JM workouts. I did week 1, workout 2 last night after T25 total body circuit & I was certain I was going to throw up!

I'm just ending week 3, I think I started 1/20, and I've lost 4-5 lbs. I know I shouldn't say "only," but I thought I'd drop more so far. I am very good with my calories, and I never miss a workout with BR. Anyone else see slow results in the first phase?

The first time I lost 5.2 lbs and this time 3.4 lbs in Phase 1. Phase 2 I lost 7 lbs and then on Phase 3 (I did 13 weeks) I lost 6.6. I also did follow MFP which was set to lose 1.4 lbs a week. I did not follow the diet and I did have some cheat days in there.

I love the JM workouts. I did ripped in 30, finished week 4, and i've been just continuing doing whatever week I feel like throughout the week. Im getting another JM program soon, just to switch things up.
