  • Good for you!!! Congrats on finishing the program, what an awesome accomplishment! Tomorrow starts my 7th week in, and I am definitely loving it and am just so motivated to keep going - already planning to take MMA training with my husband after we finish, we both really like the striking/muay thai stuff :) Well good luck…

  • I love it so far! It's definitely hard, but I didn't expect it to be easy so that's no shocker. It's a little tough at first to come to terms with not being able to do all of the exercises without modifying them or stopping for extra water breaks, but at the same time, this is supposed to be an extreme program so I figure…

  • Hi! I'm doing Tapout (today is day 1 of week 2) and following the nutrition guide :) So far not too much in the way of results, but it's only been a week since I've been working out, and about 10 days or so of following the nutrition guide. I definitely feel like I am a little tighter and a little lighter, and have lost a…
