Hey everyone,

I re-started TF yesterday and I'm just looking for buddies to keep motivated. I've had the programme for almost a year and have been doing it inconsistency. I got to week 5 the first time, week 7 the second and have also had periods of doing whatever workouts I fancied.

This time I'm going to try to stick to doing the workouts in order but taking any extra days off I need to in between and ignoring the days of the week they're scheduled for - in other words, not being a perfectionist and thinking I've flunked the whole week if I don't manage to get all the workouts done on the right days! It will probably take me longer than 20 weeks but hey, that's life!

I have a 17-month-old, so working out can sometimes be hard to fit in, but I'm committed to actually finishing the programme this time.

Send me a friend invite if you're committed too!

  • Hey,

    I started on the 9th too! How is it going for you?

    So far so good for me, I LOVE the workouts! I skipped the rest day because saturday is my ultimate rest day, so I didn't want to change that.
    However, I don't think that I'll finish the program - I'm at home at the moment but from September I'm in the apartment again and the neighbours don't really appreciate jumping at all - which doesn't mean that I'll stop exercising because that I'll never do :-))

    Keep it up!!

    I'm halfway through week 2! I've done TF before as well but I think I only got to like week 11. I plan on doing all 20 this time:) I've got a 3 year old and 5 year old so I totally understand. Neither of them nap so it's hard to get up to 60 minutes w/o them wanting to be right up in my business:) Feel free to add me if you'd like!

    Oh and I can relate to the challenge when you have kids. I have an 8 year old and a 2 year old. But definitely determined to make this happen

    *waves* Hello everyone!

    Thanks for your replies - I've hopefully friended you all so we can keep up with it together.

    It's going great so far. Last time I did it, I was getting up at 5am to do it before my daughter woke and it was always difficult as she never woke at the same time (sometimes 5.30am, sometimes 7am) and she only napped for 30 mins in the morning and afternoon. Plus I only had time to eat half a banana before working out. Now she naps at a more regular time, so I'm working out around 11am and it's so much easier keeping my energy up after a good breakfast!

    Chalene is such a great trainer and motivator!

    Good luck with it everyone!
