It was Pyramid day. Love that workout and it goes by super fast.1

Skipped T25 last night. Didn't sleep well the night before and didn't have the necessary energy. Went for a 30 min. walk/jog instead. Lower Focus tonight. Really wish I had time in the mornings to work out. I'd have to get up and at it at 4 a.m. My body doesn't cooperate with my brain that early. LOL2

I do p90x; currently on week two. Tomorrow is recovery day then week 3. I'm having issues with footwork on kenpo x.1

Greetings, P90X veteran here. Just started a new round of the original P90X this week. My off days are typically Saturdays although this week it ended up being on Tuesday. I have two young kids so I have to be at least a little flexible with the off days. If you want to friend me grayjoseph or any other P90X people fee free to do so. My lightly used blog has some links to previous results which were quite honestly impressive. The program works.2

Almost done week 4 of T25 Alpha. Second total body circuit done today. Although it is still tough I am looking forward to moving into beta just to have some different workouts...and commentary. (Derek has ah-mazing squats..arghh) Hopefully my coordination and balance will improve.1

Ended the week with Ript Up. Most of it anyway. It’s been one of them weeks and it all just caught up to me. Tomorrow is rest day and I will get back on track Sunday.
Keep going. You Can Do It!1 -
"SHAUN WEEK: INSANE FOCUS Day 6...really still 5-ish?: Speed 4.0"=Done!1

I just wanted to put myself out here! My team made a facebook accountability group with an amazing group doing 21 day fix and 80 day obsession. I would love to plug more people in who are looking for added accountability. No strings attached, just looking to grow our tribe and help others get the same amazing results that I had with my first round of 80 day obsession. Just shoot me a message on here or email me at baleighfox805@gmail.com and I would love to get you plugged in. Lets kick our health to the next level.0

Alright, just want to vent a little. My wife and I did the entire max30 insanity. During that time I lost 26lbs and many inches off my body. It was hard, but I felt good. We started p90x3 directly after insanity max 30. We are now 6 weeks in and I have only lost 6lbs since then. I have been hovering around the 258 mark since june 18th. I am starting to get frustrated at this point.. Not sure what to do. I am eating good and working out, but just not seeing the changes now1

Hey, to all y'all that are doing T25 Focus (Alpha round, specifically):
Do you ever get through the whole 25 minutes without any short rests, slow-downs and/or modifications?
Which videos can you do 100%?0 -
Yes, I did alpha last year and did almost all of it without modifications or breaks. Sometimes I have to pause if my hair falls out if it's bun, but if it stays, I do the whole thing without slowing down. I can't remember a modification...but I do remember my knees getting really sore from all the lunges.0
-
Today I did the whole red rockin'body DVD (rock it out, booty time, and hard core abs)0
-
And to those doing 80DO... don't you feel ripped off with the workouts being repeated so much throughout the month? Even the warm-up stays the exact same =/
When I heard 80 different workouts, I thought I'd get exactly that... not the same workout with the gang in different outfits...
The other thing... do y'all really get a challenge out of those loops and sliders? I guess they work for me (though I double up on loops and literally have nowhere to progress to now, and I'm just in week 2), but I'm not too impressed, tbh --and I kind of roll my eyes when the much-more-fit-than-me casts say how much they're struggling...0 -

Cool. I'm not quite there yet, I have to take a two-three second breather here and there, but going non-stop is my goal. It's fun though, I appreciate the challenge!1 -

WOW! Excellent job!! I’ve been through Alpha & Beta twice. I still have to follow Tonya for a lot of it.
Stretch is done for the day. Tomorrow is week 3 of Gamma. I’m going to up my weights a bit. I’m really looking forward to the start of my workout week.

I am starting week 5 of Alpha tomorrow. My cardio is weak so I often pause for 15-20 seconds to rest. I have definitely seen progress in my stamina and strength. Speed is probably the easiest for me since the stretches provide a chance to rest. I haven't done any straight through yet but it is getting closer.1 -
Today: The Firm hard core fusion followed by TurboFire HIIT 20. I think the HIIT 20 is actually less intense than HIIT 151

Haha I love Speed because it's the one workout in Alpha where I can almost (95%) say "nailed it".
Although, to be honest, another part of me always thinks "what the heck?" Like, the stretches feel nice, but I wonder why they're there in mid workout (if the idea is to max it out in those 25 minutes). Alas, I do enjoy the feeling of dignity following along in Speed haha... and I'm pretty sure I still don't do 100% >.<
In the other workouts: I always need 5 second breathers here and there, but I appreciate that my challenge is to aim for better and full completion throughout the course of the weeks
P.S. Lower focus KILLS me with the pulsin' and holdin' of the lunges, dang! My dignity goes out the window in those sections, I nope my way through it =/ lol1 -
"Insanity: The Asylum Vol 1 Speed & Agility"=Done! if you're feeling good, go through it again he says...LOL! NOPE!1
-
Pyramid is done! Great workout and I was able to do almost all of it. Dang pyramid pushups 😉
I increased the weights from 7.5 to 10# (I’m sure that’s wimpy for some lol). I can feel it. I’m looking forward to Extreme in a few days to see what the extra weight does.
Keep going everyone! You’ve got this! 🙂0 -

You're definitely going to be increasing muscle mass on P90x3 so that could account for some of it. Good luck sounds like you're getting great results.

Yeah I'm tired of seeing them use all 3 of the loops. I'm about to just use ankle weights. The sliders to work for lunges and planks though.
I'm still mixing in Cathe Friedrich DVDs for more varied and harder cardio because I hate the 2 cardio workouts and only 2 days of cardio wouldn't work for me. I need almost daily cardio. I'm also substituting her workouts for an occasional 80 DO workout- legs for legs, total body for total body, etc. And I wish there was more upper body work!1 -
Did the P90X3 Isometrix today - wowza - that was hard.1
-
Speed 3.0 today. I’ve found that I can’t do burpees without my back hurting. But I modify them and still move 🙂0

"Insanity: The Asylum Vol 1 Strength"=Done!
"I'M NOT. MESSIN' WITCHOO. TODAY!"1 -
Last week of T25 Alpha-Ab Intervals today, almost nailed it. So proud I have been sticking to it for nearly 5 weeks. Did my double Fridays and only missed 2 Sunday stretch days. Beta starts next Monday😀
So encouraging to see everyone checking in and working hard. 👏1 -
Finished weeks 2 of 80 Day Obsession and Focus T25 Alpha Round!!
Tomorrow is REST day for me, yee haw n.n
I'm doing a hybrid because right now I have the time, energy... and 80DO is more strength focused while T25 is more cardio oriented, so I feel I get the best of both worlds = )
I'm learning to love 80DO --which at first I didn't find challenging enough-- I think the key is in the weights. I'm nudging them up every time and dang... my pulse does indeed go up... I literally have to catch my breath in Legs day (which is when we can lift the heaviest) and I'm learning to appreciate that feeling of progress. And T25, what can I say, Shaun T's workouts are always a challenge, they're fun and dynamic... luv him.
Where I'm starting to lose willpower is in keeping my nutrition under control u.u... it gets really boring to watch what you eat and not give in to past habits... but I'm hangin' in there. Like MFP has taught me, I try to squeeze some moderate/sensible amount of goodies in, instead of restricting them all the way. It's not the same as mindlessly nibbling away on chips and cookies throughout the day, but hey, if we were able to do that without consequences, we wouldn't be in this friggin' journey, haha.
The scale (and measurements) aren't moving too much lately, which is pretty frustrating, but I've been at this (eating better, working out) for 5 months now, so I know results slow down towards the end. I hope a nice whoosh is on its darn way though, because what's more motivating than measurable results?! I'm trusting the process in the meantime, as MFP has also taught me = )
Good luck to everyone on their goals!!1
