PiYo Group

Options
Hi ladies! Yesterday was my first day of PiYo and I already am falling in love with it! If there's anyone else out there currently getting ready to start PiYo or is only a few days in, I'd love for you to join this thread. I'm looking for 5-10 ladies who are interested and I'd like to get a group of us going on here! Feel free to add me and start any discussions here :smile:

    Hey there. I just started it on 11/3 as well. Recently I moved and haven't had the opportunity to rejoin a gym and take group classes. I was getting bored on the treadmill, so I decided to do a 21-day challenge recommended to me by an acquaintance and picked this up. Even though it's only the third day, I can feel my muscles talking back to me!

    I am interested in buying the PIYO workout system and starting it too. Can you tell me anything about it? How strenuous is it? I have some health issues and don't want to hurt myself.

    I know, its crazy how fast you feel it start to work! Oddly enough I am really feeling it in my core. I feel like the balancing acts are really making me focus more on stabilizing with my core. I especially love that I can workout barefoot now!

    I started PiYo on 10/30 and I like it. Planning to give it the full 60 days. I'm way overweight and terribly out of shape. I find some of the things hard to do but with the modifications that are shown on the DVD I can usually get it done. I don't love the triceps pushups but I know they are going to make me stronger. I just go as far down as I can each time. I'd love to be in a group that is doing PiYo but I've not done anything with the social part of MFP so not sure how it works.

    It's no impact and there are lots of modifications available so it might be worth giving a try. What specifically are you want to know about?

    I think you are going to really enjoy the program. Low impact, no jumping, not to strenuous, always a modification shown and the classes are relatively short in time.

    I started it a couple weeks ago, but life got in the way and I'm determined to start it again this weekend!

    Feel free to add me on here! I created a PiYo group but wasn't sure how many people I'd get to join in, but I will definitely get you ladies into it. I thought we could all post daily what class we did, how we felt, how we did with food/water intake etc!

    I just finished my first round of PiYo with an accountability group. I love that it is suitable for anyone really from die heart yogis to folks just looking to get lean tight muscles. I lost a total of 11 lbs and 14 inches overall (followed the meal plan 80% to a tee lol). I'd love to share my results and other friends' if anyone is wondering how effective the program is.

    @mcsweetly- do you have any restrictions? PiYo is low impact with no jumping and focuses on strengthening and flexibility. Also, there is a moderator. Hope this helps! If you are interested in knowing more about the program or a special promotion that is currently going on let me know.

    I did not see anywhere that she said she ordered it. Unless maybe you PM'd her already did the same that someone else is now offering. Especially since you just had another post that you are a coach.

    I am friends with her on Facebook also, that's how I knew that she ordered it. Wasn't trying to cause any problems, was just saying! Not trying to promote my coaching business here on MFP. I know we are not allowed to do that on this website. I merely started PiYo myself and created a Piyo group also to try and get some other ladies involved for some extra motivation and accountability.
