    In week 3 & Love it! I would say just find a time you can be consistent everyday ( I do it first thing every morning) and just keep With it. So much more energy & I really look forward to waking up and working out!!! Also, like others I haven't done a double friday as time constraints in morning and getting myself and 3 year old out the door make it impossible unless I get up at 4:30!! : ) so, I have been doing the ab interval on saturday with another form of cardio. (Usually extra speed 1.0) and stretch/rest on sunday! Think you'll love it. Good luck!!!

    Day 2 in the books. Did speed 1.0. Loved it!


    In week 3 and its definitely my favorite workout!! Love it!
  • Day 3 completed. I found this the hardest of all so far, but I had cycled to work today as well which is 20 mile round trip.

    The moves into and out of the plank progressions I found particularly hard as I am a big guy (260 lbs), hoping that with time and some weight off/power built these will get easier.

    Good luck with day 3 everyone

    I'm excited about Beta because I'm moving on to something different (I get bored easily). I did the Core Cardio the first day, but I must have still been asleep because I can't remember much .,, lol (I workout early A.M., usually 4:30 or 5:00). Today, I did Speed 2.0 and HOLY COW! "Speed" is right! I was cracking myself up trying to keep up with the modifier, but I was having fun. Definitely a good solid cardio! I'm looking forward to the introduction of the resistance band and strength training during this Beta phase!

    Have any of you doing T25 done Rockin' Body? How does it compare?

    Tomorrow is Day 4 of Week 3 of T25 Beta cycle and I also have the Rockin' body videos. They are absolutely nothing alike. RB is more dance - great cardio workouts and I still do them because they are fun. T25 is much harder (IMO). I personally think T25 produces much better results.

    I'm on my 2nd round of T25, week 3 Beta. I absolutely love it. I did the program all the way through the first time, including Gamma and Gamma Hybrid.

    Tips, just take your time. You WILL get stronger and modify less. By the time I reach the final week of each phase, I'm not modifying at all.

    I have completed T25, including Gamma and Gamma Hybrid.

    My biggest tip is modify when you need to and don't feel like because you're modifying that you're not working. I have rheumatoid arthritis, so I still have to modify some moves that my joints just don't like, but I still get one heck of an awesome workout!

    Yes, I lost weight and a TON of inches, even this close to my goal, but more importantly I have seen a HUGE increase in my stamina and strength. Last year I started doing C25K and was unable to run for more than 3-4 minutes at a time and quickly gave up on becoming a runner. This year, after finishing T25, I made my next goal completing a 5k race. So, I signed up for one and started training. Amazingly enough my stamina and conditioning from T25 has improved so much that I can already run a full 5k, without really doing any actual training for a run.

    I recommend this program to everyone. For the first time in my life I feel like I am an athlete and I owe a huge part of that to T25!
