BeachBody Faithful

I love this thread!!!!

I'm doing INSANITY right now. I completed BBL and loved it. But I'm soo into Shaun T and the intesity of these workout. I'm probably going to do another round. But I also really wanna try REV ABS cause I love the capoeira and martial arts moves that it has.

Brett Hoebel the trainer from Rev Abs, is one of the new mystery trainers on The Biggest Loser! How good is Beachbody?!?!?!

I love Beachbody. I have done Turbo Jam, Slim in 6, Slim Series but only for a couple of weeks and about to start ChaLEan Extreme. The only shame is that they are so hard to get in the UK....

They are great programs!

I started with Slim in 6 after my son was born 5 years ago and wore TWO sets of them out. Seriously! Now I'm doing Turbo FIre which I love! When I reach my goal weight I'm moving on to Chalene Extreme or a hybrid of that and Turbo Fire!

Wearing the CD's out???? Now that is hardcore. Good for you.

I did Core Synergistics this morning. Haven't done this workout in a while. It was fun to hear Tony saying, "superman, banana, superman....." My plan is to get in a short run at lunch as well.

Well the first set was VHS (does anyone remember VHS...rofl), that's not hard to do...lol!

Ours is definitely a Beachbody home! My daughter has done Hip Hop Abs, I've done Turbo Jam, we've both done Insanity and ChaLEAN Extreme (I am on my 3rd round and my daughter is on her 2nd round). We also have P90X and have subbed in the cardio, yoga and ab/core workouts from it many, many times! Tony can be a bit goofy and Shaun T is just a cutie, but our fave coach is Chalene she is so motivating - I love it when she says, "get up! you're not tired!" and my daughter will argue back at the TV! Turbo Fire is definitely next on our list, but my daughter wants to get through a ChaLEAN/Insanity hybrid first - that's her plan for looking killer in her Prom Dress, so we've been referring to our workouts as Prom Time! :laugh:

That is awesome that she is already got that focus and has a prom goal. She's not simply trying to eat 100 calories a day to fit into a prom dress, she's getting fit. You got to share it with us when prom comes up.

We are a Beachbody household too. My kids (now 12 and 13) have done Shaun T's kids workout. It didn't impress them much, so we got them Power 90 before summer started. They got through levels 1 and 2 of Power 90 and now are on level 3. Both of them are improving in gym classes this year. We also have the old Hip Hop Abs, P90X and Insanity. Next purchase this month will be Turbo Fire.

Oh I am a BB Fan too... anyone who has pushed play and completed a BB program can't not like them (IMO)

I did one round of P90X, followed by a four month break to build a house, followed by Insanity and back onto P90X (since I had the best results with the X) and am going to be starting doubles and including TurboFire into the schedule at lunch hour

Oh yeah, I am hooked!!

I finished my first round of Turbo Fire right before Christmas and am doing an Insanity/Turbo Fire hybrid for the month of January. I plan to move on to Turbo Fire/Chalean Extreme in February so I can start working on muscle definition. I'm a BB junkie....in the past I've done P90, P90 Master Series, Insanity, RevAbs, Turbo Jam, and Chalean Extreme. My all time favorite program is Turbo Fire because it gave me the best weight loss results and I looked forward to pressing play every day.

I also take the BB Activit multivitamins, Slimming Formula (green tea and pyruvate), and Shakeology. I've lost 43 lbs since starting BB programs and have kept the weight off for 5 years. The stuff works if you put the effort in.

Just finished week 1 of P90X today, (sort of, I'm working out with a coach who doesn't like/won't do the Yoga X) 5 AM, 5 days a week. Was doing Kenpo, Plyo, some Ab Ripper and Tony 1 on 1 with him for ~2 months, 3X/week to get ready for the X. Tomorrow I pick up a set of 50 lb PowerBlock dumbells I found on Craig's List for only $150 -Very Psyched to have my own weights for next week, and the BB pushup bars will arrive at the end of the week too.

It's amazing what I can see happening after the cardio intro and just 1 week of P90X: where the muscles are and will be, the love handles shrinking. I've lost just 8 pounds, 3 of those this week alone. I wish I had done body fat % calipers before starting the cardio. Last week before starting the X I was 25%, which is just downright scary. I can see that I'm building a bunch of muscle and dropping the fat. I'm looking forward to that being lower at 30, 60 and 90 days! Just starting to get into the nutrition plan, though I've been logging everything I eat, cutting down fat intake and increasing protein.

BRINGING IT!

Finishing first week of round 2 . . . legs and back today, and ab ripper - oofa!

Is anyone on Shakeology, and how long have you been on it?

Just started that as well . . .

I've been drinking Shakeology for about 2 months. I've noticed increased energy and regularity. I love that I can toss it in my Magic Bullet and be out the door quicker in the mornings
