I have been off the path for over a year. Life took over and I succumbed to laziness. Oct 1 -- I begin again. I am going to do the T25/Body Beast hybrid. I want to do a little bit of everything I love.

Before I decided to buy a heart rate monitor to sync with MFP, I used this calculator for T25: homeworkoutexpert.com/ After getting my HRM, I found the above to be about 95% accurate. I do not know if other calculators like this one exist out there for other programs. Good luck!!

I have been pleasantly surprised and pleased with progress already. At this point (now day 3 of week 3 of P90), the only real modification I have are press jacks -- my knees cannot jump yet. Some day! I have broken through the walking push-ups. Coordination, not being my strong suit, is more of the challenge for me (as…

Today I started my P90 Sculpt path. Okay. I know understand clearly what you are saying about the pushups. I will be honest - I was okay with the modified first set of half pushups (okay meaning I did 6), but the walking half pushups? I walked forward and then.....my brain could not figure out how to walk backward.…

I finished my T25/Body Beast hybrid on Monday. As I was laying on the floor after workout #3 of my three-fer (it was Beast Abs), as with all Beachbody products there are adverts for coaches and such. However, the first was for P90X3 (which I have done and loved). As I laid there listening to his voice I thought - you…

Nice work!!!

First of all, size does not matter with OA. It is a 12 step program to help in recovery from an unhealthy relationship with food. I used to attend meetings and was amazed by many things, but the one commonality that we all had (when I say we - there were people of normal size, plus size, morbidly obese, anorexic): we all…

I remember vividly P90X3 had pushups....Plyo type...and that was like - nope. I can completely relate to upper body weakness as that is truly my challenge area. Give me legs any day....not like walking with all that weight didn't keep those quads and glutes in some sort of strength shape, right?!? I really loved Tony…

I am excited to hear about your progress!

I have not done Insanity yet -- but what I have LOVED about Shaun T is that, in the beginning I could hardly make it through T25 -- and now -- PIECE OF CAKE! I loved seeing progress -- really boosted my resolve! KEEP IT UP!! :smile:

I have been looking for a group to join where members are using Beachbody as their primary fitness. I have completed 2 rounds of 21DF, 1 of P90X3, 1 of T25, and 1 of Body Beast. Right now I am on week 5 of a 12 week hybrid of Body Beast / T25 and am IN LOVE with this combination! It is the best of both worlds and I have…

I went gluten free for a few months (it was part of an elimination diet as well), so I wanted to throw out a couple of things I learned. And, I will be honest, I skimmed through the comments so if this is a repeat, my apologies. First, be very careful with non-gluten grains. They may be processed in a facility with wheat…

My family (Hungarian) always used a little sugar and cinnamon as the crepe filling. It is divine!

One day at a time (or sometimes one meal at a time), you can do it!

This is an issue I went through a year ago and finally landed on four pair of shoes (two cross trainers, one court, and one minimalist shoe) that I wear depending upon what workout I am going to do on that day. My cross trainers are Avia and Reebok, court is Asics, and my minimalist is Adidas. I also SWEAR by runners socks…

I don't know how the FitBit works, but I have a Garmin Vivosmart -- what that does is adjusts total calorie burn with what has already been entered into MFP. So, I do enter my cardio manually and allow the Vivosmart to adjust for my steps and calorie burn that is more than the estimate I entered. I also allow for negative…
