Whether or not anyone labels it with the term "exercise" is irrelevant. The fact that it burns calories is what's important. Walking (fast or slow) is an excellent alternative to doing nothing.

Been doing it for 6 weeks, love it!

I'm not in any groups or anything, but I just wanted to chime in and say don't worry too much about Beta. It's tough, sure, but if you pushed yourself hard through Alpha, you'll find Beta a fun, refreshing experience.

T25 includes a Nutrition Guide, not a plan. It's there to offer some basic nutrition information and recipe ideas. You're free to eat whatever you want and adapt it to your goals, though many people here would recommend you eat more than 1300 calories a day.

Focus T25, makes it easy to burn 300+ calories in 25 minutes.

Week 4 and loving it.

I've never had Shirataki noodles, but I'm willing to give anything a try at least once. Thanks for sharing!

Focus T25. It's back in stock and shipping is free until the end of the month.

Starting Week 4 on Monday, lost several pounds and inches through the workouts and following the nutrition guide. I enjoy the program a lot, and I can't wait to start the Beta and Gamma phases. It isn't nearly as intimidating as Insanity, but you're given the opportunity to push yourself just as far. I recommend it to…
