It's a beachbody program. It's like insanity, but it's easier and cut down to a half hour. A lot of people like the program.
So people who are doing/have done T25-- do you also weight train and do cardio in addition to the 25 min workouts? Getting a great workout in only 25 minutes sounds amazing! I'm at the gym almost two hours between weight training and 30-45 minutes of cardio.0 -

Shaun T is the trainer, and he gets the calories scorched very well. He's my favorite trainer. You can lift if you wish to build muscle also, but you'll also be just fine doing only t25.0 -
I'm 20 and just starting to get into fitness. I've been doing Zumba, Blogilates, and taking walks. Hopefully will start weight training in small doses.0

I've been going to the fitness classes at my gym 5-6x a week! My favorites are spin, and a tabata style resistance training "definition" class. I've also been focusing on getting 100 - 130g protein and more omega 3s. My diary is open if any of you want food ideas! Also, feel free to add
Noticed that a lot of you do at home workouts, I used to love Jillian Michaels a few years back and got great results doing a couple of her dvds!0 -

Interested for sure I'm getting there slow but steady0

I'm 22 and also interested! I did Insanity with a bunch of my dorm friends and loved it, they all lost at least 20 lbs or more in the first month. I didn't lose anything but got a lot more toned. I have hypothyroidism and had just been diagnosed when we started, so I don't blame the program (how could I?!) for my lack of scale results. I'll take non-scale victories any day0

Hi, I'm 23 and have (over the course of about 2 years and being quite "on and off") lost about 30 pounds. At the start of this year I made a true commitment to living a healthy lifestyle and haven't turned back! After the semester ended I began working out and started insanity yesterday. I love swapping recipes and think this thread is a great idea. It seems pretty rare to find people our age on here. So yea... I'm in!0

Hi! I'm glad you found this "community" thread. I'm glad you mentioned your commitment to living a healthy lifestyle, that is KEY and something I've struggled with during my "weight loss" endeavors. I'll admit that I've tried many of the crazy fad diets out there and have finally learned that losing weight and getting in shape really is about changing your lifestyle and being committed to it. There are no quick fixes if you want to have lasting results.0 -
I'm 19 and would love to see healthy recipes too ! And fitness etc.0

I'm 22 and I started a healthier lifestyle about 10 days ago, so I'm pretty new to this. I'm looking to lose a few pounds but most importantly gain muscle. I did my first two workouts of Starting Strength this week and I'd love to hear about some more high-protein recipes and see how well everyone else is doing. Please add me0

I want in on this im 22
I mix it up between doing insanity and Zuzka Lights Z Cut Strength. Some times both. So generally an hour to an hour and a half work out. Which i easily stick with.
I have a consistency problem with food though, ill eat good for 3 days and then on the fourth have a binge evening0 -
Hey, I'm 25 and getting back into shape so that I can stay healthy... I've gotten great results, despite working a desk job, with playing a ton of sports alternated with heavy lifting/bodyweight routines. I think that what's made the biggest difference has been changing my mindset - both concerning food and how I feel about myself.
Foodwise, I steam everything haha. Chicken breasts, eggs, fish, and all sorts of veggies. It tastes good, and I'm lazy0 -
YES PLEASE. I'm 22, a recipe fiend, and no one will swap with me :c Count me in!0

Hi! I'm 22 and, after gaining like 50lbs in college, I am trying to get healthy again. I lost twenty pounds between september and december using a really strict diet and then got off track but was able to maintain. I have 30 more pounds to go so I started using MFP to become more accountable. I've been lifting at the gym but I've been having a really hard time getting into any cardio, which I really should be doing. Any suggestions would be awesome! And feel free to add me!0

Count me in I'm 24 and just joined my local gym. I have been cleaning up my diet and doing a lot more cardio/group classes. I finally have the summer off and the time to dedicate to changing my life. Cooking isn't my favorite thing to do, but I am learning to enjoy it now that I have the time! Looking forward to swapping recipes!
Are you going to make a group?
