  • Hi Ladies, sorry I haven't checked in in a while. Happy to see you are all still going strong! Way to go gmansmom, 6 pounds lost is incredible!! I have beast arms today and I'll do total body tomorrow and that will wrap up the Bulk phase for me!! Moving on to the BEAST phase :happy: I have reached my initial goals at this…
  • Aaww Melanie, hope you are feeling back to 100% soon! It's so hard to WO when you don't feel great. But great job getting it done! Yes, there are a lot of duplicate names, lol. My real name is Jenna. I'll try to sign off that way with each post to make it easier :) Have an awesome weekend girls! ~Jenna
  • Good morning! We got home from our cruise yesterday and I survived turning 40! ;) I had great workouts on the boat. I did 30 minute cardio circuits and BB every day. The food part, not so good. I lived off desserts, eek!! I got on the scale this am and somehow, I didn't gain any weight, woot, woot, lol. But I'll really see…
  • Happy Monday everyone, let's start the week off STRONG! Welcome back gmansmom, from your post, it sounds like you had a great time on your vacation! My husband has surprised me with a 4 night cruise for my 40th birthday, we leave today :smile: I'm going to take my BB workouts with me and try my best to eat as well as I…
  • Happy Sunday ladies! Today is my rest day. I usually dread rest days, but I feel like I need it today. Deb - I loved the first phase of P90x3! Then I started doing BB. Now I'm just using the cardio videos from the program to supplement BB. I tried to continue on with doing both programs together as they were designed, but…
  • I have to say I'm a little jealous of all the soreness you all are having. I'm lifting as heavy as I can, but rarely get sore anymore. I like a little soreness, makes me feel like I'm getting something out of it, lol. As far as supplements, I use Now brand Whey Protein Isolate (natural flavor). I LOVE it. I also take…
  • Wow Debra, 9 pounds is a lot in 21 days! Way to go, proud of your effort and will power! Good luck with managing the calories for Body Beast. Let us know how much you are increasing and the results. Hope everyone had a fabulous Easter weekend. I had a few too many desserts, oops! Thanks girls, my doctor switched my pill…
  • Thanks Melanie and Deb for the answers :) It's crazy the differences in calories burns for different people. I want to burn more! lol:bigsmile: Melanie, I haven't done the tempo workouts yet. But as far as I'm aware, for the tempo workouts you vary the amount of time you lift and release the weight (and at the moment, I'm…
  • Welcome to all the new people, it's great to see some activity on here! I finished the second week of the Bulk phase. Today I'm going to do the total body workout for the fun of it. I'm curious if any of you wear heart rate monitors and what your calorie burns are. My numbers are always so low with this program, I don't…
  • Good morning girls! I'm in the second week of the Bulk phase and still going strong. I can see more muscle definition which is exciting :happy: . On the downside, I've been at a standstill for weight loss. I can't tell if it's because I started a new birth control pill or because of the added muscle. I'm hoping it's the…
  • My husband and I just finished Sagi's Week 3, but it took us 4 weeks to do it. My husband likes a Mon-Sun type schedule so I've added extra cardio days to make it work. I can't really pinpoint how long it takes to see changes. I started P90x3 a few weeks before BB, so some of the changes could be from that. I was very sore…
  • A big welcome to our new ladies, good to have you here! Jag720 Glad you are liking it. I felt the same way, so good to get back to good old fashion weight lifting! But I must say, if I wasn't doing P90x3 along with it, I'd be missing the cardio and plyo stuff also. I wish they would create a program that effectively…
  • Good morning Ladies! Let's start the week strong!! We've been on vacation the past 4 days. Brought my DVD's to workout at the hotel and there was no DVD player :frown: I did the best I could with some Insanity and T-25 videos off of YouTube. Gotta make due with the resources you have! I ate great until yesterday. Yesterday…
  • Hi Ladies! I'm in the middle of the 3rd week, still loving it. I did legs and shoulders on the same day this week because I'll need to skip a day due to traveling. That was rough, lol! I'm still doing a P90x3 video before BB and so far, I'm able to do both without problems. My weights are very similar...…
  • You are on the right track. You can also print out the worksheets on beachbody.com. Those should help also. You will do 4 sets of a lot of the exercises. The 4th set is the "drop" set. It's done without resting after the 3 rd set and with reduced weight. So for example, you may start with 8lbs for set one, 10 lbs set 2, 12…
  • Welcome ladies! I'm so glad You both are starting about the same time as me. I just finished week 2. My weeks aren't going to match his exactly because I need a Monday-Sunday schedule with Sat & Sun off. I'm doing it with my husband and he insists on having those days off, lol. I am doing an extra Body beast cardio on…
  • Welcome! Can you tell us about your results from the first round?
  • Started BB on Monday. So far so good, really liking it! I'm feeling my chest, tris and legs today, but just enough to be a good pain :) I'm also adding cardio through P90x3 or T-25. I just can't separate myself from it.
  • Thank you! It calculated a similar number.
  • I received my DVD's today! I have a question. Sorry if this has already been discussed, I haven't gone through all 16 pages of discussion. Are you guys following their calorie calculator? Seems like its been written for guys and the calories seem high. Anyone else think that? I do realize I should eat more to gain muscle,…
  • Last year I did Jamie Eason's Live Fit, Insanity and T-25. Then I slacked a couple months this winter :frown: I've been doing T-25 and P90X3 for a few weeks. I love P90X3, but I really need more weight training. I've been doing too much cardio.
  • Hi Ladies, I'm excited to see this group! I've ordered Body Beast and will be starting it in about a week! Looking forward to the challenge :smile:
