I did the fit test yesterday and wooooow. I almost feel bad for counting any of the switch kicks or whatever they're called because I can't even kick my leg out straight in front of me. I didn't even try the two push-up ones since I can barely do a real pushup! Also I was worried about the ones that incorporated the jumps because I live in an apartment and someone is below me and I'm not looking to piss my neighbors off. I think I'm going to have to modify any exercises that involve jumps.

i did fit test yesterday and was very pleased with how i did but i ate before i started and barfed in my mouth a bit. i know, yuck right. today i wanted to learn from yesterday so i did workout day 1 on an empty stomach. i was disappointed with the amount of breaks i took. to the people that are happy with their performance, are you eating before your workout and how long before your workout. i am having one other issue. both days i sweat so much that the spot i am working out on gets surprise slippery spots. is anyone else having this issue and if so what did you do about it?

I take a lot of breaks too and then I get mad at myself at the end. But the point is you are moving and keeping at it and will see improvements. I do not eat before I do it as I'm a night shifter so I wake up in the middle of the afternoon, work out, shower and then head to work. So I eat after. As far as the sweaty spots, I have found it best to keep two towels by me. One to wipe off my face and the other to wipe off the area I'm working out on as well as my hands, otherwise I slide around.

i will try again tomorrow on empty stomach and have those towels ready. lol, why didn't i think of that. seems so simple now that you've said it. i know your right. i will just keep at it. if i am not happy with my performance, i will just have to keep repeating till i am. thank you

This looks really interesting and very tempting!! How much time and commitment does it take to do this effectively? I would love to, but im not sure if it is for me..... And tips?

There is no equipment (which I love!), just your body. The workouts in month 1 are about 45 minutes and in month 2 are between 45-hour.

Just finished Day 2 (Plyometric Cardio) and I used my HRM. I took a few more breaks than I would have liked and completely failed at the one exercise but I still burned 421 calories during the 42min workout and I made it through without quitting.. I CAN DO THIS!

started with fit test yesterday,,, that was difficult. Today I started the first workout ion the schedule, after 15 minutes i realized it was only the warm up... i was almost dying. I stopped. then got mad at myself but i will try again tomorrow. i have to tone up I really dislike the way i look. I give up so easily . :sad: by reading these posts i hope to stay motivated

keep going even if you have to take 5 second breaks, you will get through it!

I'm in!!
