  • Well, not had the best weekend diet wise. It was my sons birthday so I Obviously had to have a little bit of cake and party goddies lol

    but..... then it was my birthday weekend and I was taken out for the day doing an tree top assault course and after that I ate like a good un. I didn't know that I could consume so much food.

    I'm back on it today and looking forward to my workout :D

    Hey everyone! Today I did TBC and actually feel like I made some progress with the planks. I also did Stretch today since I was crazy busy yesterday. I fell off on my eating this weekend because my husband i going to be out of town for the next few weekends so we went out a few times but i wasn't TERRIBLE. I will admit that I had pasta on Saturday but just did a basic garlic oil sauce instead of Alfredo (my favorite) and only ate half. I plan to just do extra Zumba to make up the difference in calories.

    I hope that everyone had a good Monday!

    Lower focus for me yesterday. I have realised that I hate it lol I thought it was abs I didn't like, but no, definitely lower focus. it just kills my legs! Which is obviously the point, it means its doing something, but wow!
    Cardio today!

    Hey team! Did Lower Focus and again i am seeing improvements. Since this is the first time I did this one on a single day it was nice to be able to push and not have to save my energy for that extra workout. My legs felt like jelly during all the lunge pulses. I still have to get out of it for a few seconds in the middle but i am getting better. My goal is to not stop next time. This workout makes me sweat so good! I still have problems with the lunge squat progression and alignment but i am getting a bit faster at least. I am looking forward to cardio tomorrow. I can't believe that we are halfway through Alpha! Time is really flying.

    I plan to shake my butt to a little zumba later this evening.

    Have a great evening!

    Welcome along...

    It's an impossible question to answer about your heart, the only thing that can be said is that with every session of exercise you do, your overall health and stamina will improve and you'll start to notice you are out of breath less, have more energy, can complete more etc etc...

    Any exercise is better than none!

    Cardio done! I did pretty well but i have a really sharp pain in my back/shoulder that really prevented me from going full speed. It feels like when you sleep wrong and get a crick in your neck but it is in such a strange place i have no clue how i did it. It is like under my right lat in my back. It prevented be from doing anything fast or aggressive on my left side so I feel like i couldn't go at 100%. I took some advil and will hopefully just be able to wait it out.

    We will see how it is tomorrow...if it is still feeling the way that it is right now I might have to do TBC on Saturday emoticon

    Anyway, have a great day team!

    Good Evening guys!

    The week 3 double day is in the books and it kicked my behind. I had to take a 4 hour break in between TBC and Ab Invervals, I was just too exhausted. Right after ab intervals I did a 20 minute Zumba session to get a better calorie burn today. I always try to go a little harder on the day before STATurday. I am a bit nervous about this one because I was pretty bad last Saturday and Sunday. I have been clean all week and did some extra Zumba sessions to make up for the extra calories that I consumed but you just never know!

    It is so interesting to me that I had a tough time with energy yesterday and today, I am thinking that maybe it has something to do with the order of the videos this week. It seems like doing TBC, then Speed 1.0 then Lower Focus sucked a lot of energy from me. Looking at the schedule for next week, I am not sure that it is going to get any better emoticon.

    Have a great one guys....I will update my STATurday info in the morning.

    So, week 5 total body done. I think I'm getting better. I've found I'm not looking at the tv as much and wondering how to move my body into that move anymore and can focus on the actual exercise.

    So, on track so far with weight loss and feeling better so...

    FOCUS!

    Hi Team!

    I am sorry for the long absence...a lot has happened since Sunday. I was excited to find out that I am expecting our husband and I's first child so needless to say, my T25 journey is being put on hold for a while.

    I wish you all the best of luck and I look forward to tackling T25 next year...I am sure that I will have lots of weight to lose!

    Keep up the good work team and keep pushing play!

    Started Beta yesterday. I looked at the timer and saw 12.53 minutes left & thought I WILL NEVER MAKE IT!
    Then I just FOCUSED and the next time I looked there was only 3 minutes left :)

    Just push play ppl. You can do it :wink:

    Staturday results: lost total of 8 pounds and 5.5 inches:love:

    I am so looking forward to Beta! I had a quick watch of the workouts last week to see what it coming, and for most of them I was like "Ohh yeah, I can do that" (a couple of things made me go Oooooh that looks tough...). It does look more intense but also looks like it just builds on what we have been doing and tweaks it a little.

    I did my workout on Monday, but didn't get the abs interval done yesterday. My 7 year old daughter had surgery so we were up at 5am and it was a long stressful exhausting day, so I just flagged the workout. She needed me more than I needed to exercise. But it will be double workout today to catch up.
