Always modify when you need do! It does not mean you are not still getting in a great workout! I use the modifications a lot and still feel it! Make sure to pay attention to form over pace because if you have improper form doing a move, it could lead to injury! If you are looking at Beachbody programs, I would say look at…

Yeah!!! So glad to see someone else doing Slim in 6 as well! I just started with my first day of Start It Up yesterday! Would love to be accountability buddies!! I have never fully finished a program always jumping from one to another, but I really want to see this one through! It's only 6 weeks right? :smiley: I'm not too…

I alternated between Banish Fat Boost Metabolism, No More Trouble Zones (another of her DVD's; it is on YouTube if you want to check it out), and an optional exercise DVD (sometimes yoga, pilates, or a light cardio/strength) each week for 6 weeks. That made it so that I only did each DVD twice a week (I rested on Sunday)…

These are all so motivating! Thank you for sharing!! :smile:
-
Thank you for the recipe! Sounds so good!! :)
-
Following for the great ideas!! :)
-
Bumping for the great advice! :)
-
Following for all the great hummus recipes!! :)

Mmmmmm, I am definitely going to have to try out the garlic cheddar biscuits along with many other recipes in this post! :) Thanks for all the great ideas!!

Thank you for your feedback. I have contemplated (and even started) Body Revolution a few times but seem unable to stick with it at this point. I'm glad to see that someone else is doing the Prep Schedule along with something else and seeing great results. I might try a week just Prep Schedule then and see how I feel and…
-
I'm about to start the Prep Schedule on Monday. In addition to the toning, have you had weight loss? I have a little over 30 pounds I would like to lose so would like to see some weight loss as well. I would like to stick only with this Prep Schedule right now if it will help with the weight loss. Should this be enough…

I wanted to let you know that I am still planning on doing this with you all! I will probably just update on my previous week every Sunday or Monday instead of updating daily. This week, I have already skipped Monday and Tuesday. I think in order to still be on schedule and not have to start over next week, I will plan on…
-
I will start with you as I have tried to start a few times and can't seem to get past the first week. Not that it is too hard (although it does make me feel worked), but I just let life get in the way! :) Well, that and I'm just not a 'cardio' person so the first cardio day always throws me off because I can't talk myself…
-
I've been wondering myself about combining Body Revolution with T25. Keep us updated on how you like that. Right now though I'm struggling just getting through the first week without giving up! This week is my 3rd try on the 1st week. My hopes though are to complete Body Revolution then do it again perhaps in conjunction…
-
I know in T25 they show the modification for this as just basically less intensity. She just lifts each leg and the alternate arm without the jumping (of course I know that takes the plyo part away). :) Just do what you can then do your jogging in place and continue to work into it. Each day, week, etc, you will be able to…

This is a bit late in response, but just in case you was still trying to decide I wanted to respond. Either one will give you a workout! You can't spot reduce, but just keep in mind to focus on working all those muscles when doing any of the zumba dances. You don't have to buy the Zumba Core to get the core benefit. I own…
-
I can deal with slow shipping (within reason) as long as the product is good, and I actually receive it! :) Thank you for some feedback on this! :)
-
That is what I am having problems with as well. All the bad reviews! It really is scary! I had a bad deal on trying to buy the Insanity DVD's for a 'great price' and got taken. Of course, that was through Ebay so they gave me a refund (even though they couldn't recoup from the sellers because they had shut down all their…
-
Looks like great deal! Was wondering if you know anyone who has ordered things off that site before. Just looking up reviews and kind of scared to order from them without knowing if others have first hand experience with them. There are a lot of people putting really bad things about the company out there, but I never can…
-
Saving for later as we are wanting to get rid of processed and canned foods as much as possible! :) Really needed some great meal ideas for lunch, supper, and snacks.
-
Fantastic results!! What a difference!! I have been trying to decide whether or not to go for it and do JMBR (I've tried to begin a few times unsuccessfully), and I think I will definitely try to start and stick to it! I hope that I am able to achieve as great of results as you did! I have about 25 lbs still to lose (give…

I am also a SAHM plus homeschooling. I have a 4 year old boy and 5 year old girl. I am 33 (will be 34 in Jan) and 5'3". My starting weight was around 172. A little over 300 days logging in but with many bumps along the way, I am down to 148. 140 is my 'healthy' BMI weight, but the ultimate goal is between 125-130. I will…

Turbo Jam (shows low impact modifications and even points out one of the ladies who has lost over 70 pounds and looks fantastic and has only used the low impact modifications).
-
I know for some Jillian Michael's, a mini trampoline could be used to help with the knees, but I wonder as well if it could help with sound. Having done Insanity though, the mini trampoline would be too small because you move around a lot, but maybe you could think along these lines. I wonder perhaps if you had an elevated…

LOL!!! Amen to that!! :) Yeah, running man is killer. I am not the biggest fan of mummy kicks. I can handle suicides (didn't say I love them, but I can handle them), but those two moves are the ones I dread doing. The running man is number one on that list though!! :)
-
Just the words 'Cardio 3' sounds tough, but good to know only 20 seconds per move!! :) It is a mind game with me, and I can trick it for short periods. The minute long exercises stretch that time limit though, and I start to feel weak! :) I am so excited to start this journey through the 90 days of Body Revolution, and…
-
Thank you for everyone's replies! This seems like such a great group!! I just finished workout 2 that I skipped yesterday, and I am amazed at how out of shape I have become (especially since just a little over 2 months ago, I completed a month of Insanity)!! I am barely even able to keep my balance during the lunge ab…
-
I have just started this week. Did Monday's workout but missed yesterday so I will be trying to fit yesterday and today's in today. :) I am not doing the Kickstart this week although I have contemplated switching it up and doing the Kickstart my second week. This week I am just trying to get back in the groove of doing a…

The Yoga Conditioning for Weight Loss DVD I have is with Suzanne Deason. In the intro, she explains that the yoga itself does not exactly contribute to the weight loss, but it will give yourself a mind/body connection that will allow you to better choose healthier foods, etc when you have that connection, are less…
-
I am behind on this as I just started yesterday. Is it just me or does it drive anyone else crazy in workout 1 that she only does side crunches for the leg abductions on one side? Both times through she only does them on the same side! This usually does not bother me as I am very familiar with her sometimes doing this in…
