Shaun T makes me freaking insane

I hate him. Not because he forces me to do stuff I don't wanna - such as globe jumps and walking pushups- but for his stupid sayings and bad pronunciation. Every morning I dread hearing him say "C'mon y'all!" and drop the first "T" in "important": He ALWAYS says "Impor-ent." Arrrgh I hate that!
There's more.
In cardio recovery, he mixes up squats and lunges at least twice. Sigh, why i notice these things and why they bother me is a whole different topic.
Also, I don't have all that much to lose, but still- looking at all the those super fit people in the videos isn't motivating for me, it's freaking depressing. It wouldn't have killed them to throw a couple people with ten (or twenty) pounds to lose in the video. Beach body acts like this workout program is "super super insane" - give me freaking break. I've yet to burn more than 320ish calories in a workout. When I play sports, I burn more like 500/ hour and that's including time on the sidelines.
I'm on week three and "pushing through y'all!" SMFH. Just too stubborn to quit.
What does he do that drives you 'insane'?

Wow, maybe you should be doing a different program if it bothers you that much... haha. You shouldn't dread your workouts! Personally I love Shaun T! I think he's a really great motivator. I feel like he always says the right things to keep me going just as I'm about to give up.
On the subject of the people in the video, I think they are super motivating. Maybe these workouts aren't for you if you don't have a competitive streak in you. Every day I like pushing myself harder to try and keep up with them (and beat them on the fit test). And if you're not burning as many calories as you'd like, either a) maybe you need to adjust your HRM or b) you're not pushing yourself hard enough. I suspect the latter since you don't seem to like the videos and I'm sure you're probably not giving it your all.
If your heart's not in it, just quit now. Find a program that suits you better.0 -

I was just saying this same thing last weekend!! I completed the first month and then totally quit. The workouts are too long for my busy day (single mom who works full time), I don't find him motivating at all, and it just seemed more like torture than a workout. I know it's supposed to be challenging but, I have to enjoy it to continue. I am about a week into Jillian Michaels 30 day shred. The workouts are shorter but still kick my butt and I find I look forward to working out again. Maybe try something different?0 -
It is a good program, but i always wondered the same thing
Why didn't he throw in some people that looked like they actually needed to work out.
I think that would have motivated people more.0 -
channel that anger into a tougher workout. grrrrrrr the power is yours..0

if this is what he looks like he can talk to me in any way he wants lmao:laugh: :laugh:0 -
I feel that way about Tony Horton. I CANNOT handle that man enough to do P90X, even if I could do that many pull-ups. Hearing his "jokes" one time is waaaaaaaay more than enough.0
-
His poor grammar does bother me, but I try to ignore it. But really, when he says "when your legs IS" I can't help but cringe. I don't mind his use of the word "y'all" because I hear that all the time, but the grammar issues do get to me. I like how hard he makes me work, though, so I deal with it.
I can't believe you haven't burned more than 320ish calories in a work out. I easily burn at least 450 calories in every workout (except cardio recovery) and I'm not overweight. I just finished week 4- I'm a little afraid of the Max workouts that I have to start in a week, but I'm looking forward to working harder and getting in better shape.0 -
Wow, maybe you should be doing a different program if it bothers you that much... haha. You shouldn't dread your workouts! Personally I love Shaun T! I think he's a really great motivator. I feel like he always says the right things to keep me going just as I'm about to give up.
On the subject of the people in the video, I think they are super motivating. Maybe these workouts aren't for you if you don't have a competitive streak in you. Every day I like pushing myself harder to try and keep up with them (and beat them on the fit test). And if you're not burning as many calories as you'd like, either a) maybe you need to adjust your HRM or b) you're not pushing yourself hard enough. I suspect the latter since you don't seem to like the videos and I'm sure you're probably not giving it your all.
If your heart's not in it, just quit now. Find a program that suits you better.
In case you didn't notice, I wasn't asking for a reason to quit... LMAO. Actually I think it hilarious that this is your advice.... unsolicited advice.
Reminds me of a movie quote I love from "Elvira: Mistress of the Dark": "If I wanted your opinion, I'd beat it out you" lol just kidding

I know you didn't ask for advice, but I'm just saying... for example, I don't like to run, so I don't make myself run. You don't have to make yourself do something you don't like!0
-
Also, I don't have all that much to lose, but still- looking at all the those super fit people in the videos isn't motivating for me, it's freaking depressing. It wouldn't have killed them to throw a couple people with ten (or twenty) pounds to lose in the video.
I was just saying this same thing last weekend!! I completed the first month and then totally quit. The workouts are too long for my busy day (single mom who works full time), I don't find him motivating at all, and it just seemed more like torture than a workout. I know it's supposed to be challenging but, I have to enjoy it to continue. I am about a week into Jillian Michaels 30 day shred. The workouts are shorter but still kick my butt and I find I look forward to working out again. Maybe try something different?
Yep, this is my second attempt to complete the 8 or 9 weeks... last year i made it through the first month only and then quit because he was driving me crazy and I got bored with the workouts. This time I'm dedicated to finish.... even though I'd rather be jogging outside or lifting weights. I figure doing all the different moves is working out areas I tend to ignore perhaps. It's definitely a good workout and I'm hoping I'll burn more in the MAX part.
And just because you don't like something doesn't mean it's time to quit!!!!! RIGHT?!?!?!0 -
I know you didn't ask for advice, but I'm just saying... for example, I don't like to run, so I don't make myself run. You don't have to make yourself do something you don't like!
Hey that's ok, we have a difference of opinion. 4 years ago i didn't like running either but i kept at and i freaking love it now. I don't usually give up.... that's my stubborn personality. I gave up on Insanity last year for a number of reasons and never felt quite right about it. Also it sure feels like an accomplishment when you complete something that wasn't necessarily fun.
Also this is of a rant than a request for advice....0 -
He is not my favorite personality and neither is Jillian anymore (use to really love her) but i still do the workouts occasionally i just turn the volume down and blast some music works for me. 0

Shaun T does the Cat Pee diet hence why I do not like him!!0
-
If you don't like his mother tongue, then switch the volume off !0

and what the hell is wrong with say'in Ya'll!!!!!!0

Reported for attacking someone in a post. This Shaun T. Also for taking away from the glory that is Mr T. One clearly has better hair.

And if you're not burning as many calories as you'd like, either a) maybe you need to adjust your HRM or b) you're not pushing yourself hard enough. I suspect the latter since you don't seem to like the videos and I'm sure you're probably not giving it your all.
If your heart's not in it, just quit now. Find a program that suits you better.0 -
I agree with the below. Not everyone will love the same programs! Beachbody has a guarantee on their programs so if you truly hate it, I'd say return it and find something you like. I personally didn't like P90X and wasn't able to finish the program because I was so bored, but when I got Turbo Fire and ChaLEAN Extreme I fell in love with the workouts. Beachbody certainly isn't just Insanity, so check out the others!Wow, maybe you should be doing a different program if it bothers you that much... haha. You shouldn't dread your workouts! Personally I love Shaun T! I think he's a really great motivator. I feel like he always says the right things to keep me going just as I'm about to give up.

I hate him. Not because he forces me to do stuff I don't wanna - such as globe jumps and walking pushups- but for his stupid sayings and bad pronunciation. Every morning I dread hearing him say "C'mon y'all!" and drop the first "T" in "important": He ALWAYS says "Impor-ent." Arrrgh I hate that!
There's more.
In cardio recovery, he mixes up squats and lunges at least twice. Sigh, why i notice these things and why they bother me is a whole different topic.
Also, I don't have all that much to lose, but still- looking at all the those super fit people in the videos isn't motivating for me, it's freaking depressing. It wouldn't have killed them to throw a couple people with ten (or twenty) pounds to lose in the video. Beach body acts like this workout program is "super super insane" - give me freaking break. I've yet to burn more than 320ish calories in a workout. When I play sports, I burn more like 500/ hour and that's including time on the sidelines.
I'm on week three and "pushing through y'all!" SMFH. Just too stubborn to quit.
What does he do that drives you 'insane'?
This cracks me up! Because I agree that sometimes he can be annoying. But so can all instructors.
I love him. I think he's gorgeous. I love his body. I love his workouts.
But, I've noticed the same things you have, and it drives me crazy. What is it he says on Cardio Abs... "knees is" or something like that. LOL
I don't mind the "C'mon ya'll" though. It just makes me laugh.
But his grammar does annoy me.
And I also hate the super fit girls in there. That's something I actually really love about P90X - those people are real. The guys don't strut around topless, and the girls are FIT. REAL women. Not ridiculously perfect girls with ripped abs. UGH.0 -

this is how i feel too!! llol alsoi think ANY work out dvds canget annoying sometimes maybe switch to tony horton or whatever his name is on the p90x when i tried that his voice drove me nutts sooo its a personal thing youll find whay ya like0 -

I think he's trying to appeal to the masses that don't use proper grammar. At least he isn't condescending like Jillian i like her workouts and used to love her. I absolutely can't make it through 30d/s because of her attitude. I hope you find something you like and keep going that is what the main goal is right?0
-
Once I learned the workouts in Month 1, I put on my music. Now I am in Month 2 and my favorite part is when he says, "This is not a game!" His grammar and silly little things he says to motivate just make me laugh. I hate it when he tells me I only have 20 seconds left. When my muscles are on fire 20 seconds feels like a life sentence.0
-
LMAO!!! I have to agree, his voice is ANNOYING!!! I almost didn’t get the program because I thought he was remedial from watching the infomercial. However, I LOVE the workout. I’m at the end of week two and committing to 2x a day for the rest of month 1. The trick is to turn your TV down very low and play your own music in the background. I’ve done it enough to know the moves and what he says, so I don’t have to be bothered with questionable voice and vocabulary.
Side note: I personally would not want to see an overweight person in a workout dvd.. that does nothing to motivate me!! I’m pushing hard in this program because I’m trying to get like the girl with those killer abs! A fat person cannot give me that motivation!!0 -
Yea he was obviously kidding. You seem to be a bit edgy. Maybe you should try a beach body workout, I hear shaun t. Is pretty awesome. Hah that's a joke too since they seem to be missing the mark.Reported for attacking someone in a post. .
Are you kidding me??? LMFAO. This is why I don't usually post in the forums. Did you miss the bit where I said we simply have a difference of opinion? Did my movie quote upset you? Get a life. SMH.0 -
After seeing hip hop abs He lost any chance of ever being taken seriously in my book.0
-
I used to think he was cool but after reading a review on Insanity by the American Council on Exercise where they pretty much tore Shaun T down saying he knew nothing about emphasizing safety, form, and that the workout had no real logic to it, I pretty much stopped believing in him.0
