Where are you with T-25? Day 1?

Best way to keep us on track... ideas? Weekly stat checkin? (measurements, weight)

    Day 1, complete!!! I'll try to check in as often as possible, but weekly stat check-in will be awesome!

    Today was day 2. I found today a bit easier with the stretches, until the last 10 minutes. Then it was really hard and I had to take a few breaks!!

    Yes - I like starting on Mondays but I'm game for earlier than next Monday (unless everyone took stats yesterday before starting T25?)

    I have done T25 once fully, lost about 20lbs, I tried a second time and just wasn't into it. I took measurements and stats this past Monday, started tracking calories this week and will start day 1 of T25 this coming Monday. Can't wait and good luck to everybody!

    I did my stats on the weekend, and I'm planning to do them again on Saturday.

    Just finished speed 1. I kind of liked it better than the cardio one.

    If anyone wants to do stat updates, let's start at some point this weekend by posting current stats if you choose to share (commiserate...) - weight and/or measurements?

    MFP could with working out the number of calories each T25 workout burns so they can be measured accurately against our food/exercise log. I've started T25 for the second time after finishing it last year prior to my holiday. I felt amazing afterwards but sadly let standards slip when I came back from hols when I should have just started it up again....now i'm back to square one no thanks to the extra Christmas treats I've been nibbling on. But it seriously does work and once you've finished the programme it just needs to become part of your general lifestyle. Well done everyone for trying..Dont give up!

    Started this yesterday, so experienced Speed 1.0 today. So glad there was no one else in the house - I must have looked like an octopus trying to dance.

    Anyone got any coordination to spare?

    Anyone else really aching from speed1.0 yesterday? Not sure how I'm going to get through today's exercise!

    Oh yes, my legs are aching like mad from the knees down. I'm sure it'll all be good once you get going today - I know that my aches usually disappear once I start working out again.

    Just got to convince the 2yo that she does actually want a nap so daddy can be murdered by Shaun T again! ;)

    Ha, ditto! Total Body Circuit was a real tough one for me (I was even having trouble keeping up with Tania by about half way through). Sick thing is I'm kinda looking forward to doing it again next week...

    Oy - I need something to support my wrists for the pushups and planks. Wussy wrists are painful with all those after Day 3. Yowza.

    Just finished Day 3 total body circuit...sadly I am mostly with the modifier (especially the planks) but can do some of the jogging on spot/squat stuff....

    I (unofficially) started this 1 week before Christmas. I'm so uncoordinated that I needed extra time to get a feel for the moves/dvds (-so I could "Nail It!"). I started out by (barely) keeping up with the modifier- now, it feels too slow for me (-which is awesome!).
    Officially, I started on 5th. I have weak wrists & golfers elbow in my dominant arm, so weight-bearing exercises can hurt.

    Things I've noticed:
    -Weight training gloves help with stability.
    -Total body conditioning & Speed1.0 kill my knees, if on the carpet (-moved these workouts to the tile-area).
    -I use Fitbit Charge (love it)- but does anyone have a guestimation of calories burned w/T25? -Sorry if this was already answered! :)

    Hey Polywoggs! It's tough to guess how many calories an individual burns, because it's all dependent on your own body... For me, I burn about 250-300 calories doing the T25 (I've only done the 1st three so far.)

    My running partner and I would run and wear HRMs... she weighed more than I did and would always burn more calories because of this. That's why it's hard to guesstimate such numbers because it's not really a one-size-fits-all formula.

    Hey Monnix, no worries! I'm mostly with the modifier too and once upon a time, I was in pretty decent shape. I'm sure we're gonna get better and we'll be able to do the "regular" moves! Just keep it up!!!

    Yeeaah... that sounds so fun... :\ Still, hopefully I'll have a fighting chance of getting at least one round of it right!

    Today should've been called 'Shaun T's Ab HELL'. As per my entry on coach.me today:

    "Today I hate Shaun T. I'll love him when I take my next round of stats, but now? I hate him..."
