Hi, Did you use liquid Stevia or granulated? Do you have measurments for what you did, or just eyeball everything? I am going to make these :)

Accountability Round 2 T25 Alpha Week 5 Day 4 Cardio Complete I see a pattern going.. Bad day yesterday, stellar workout today. Max hr 155 Avg 138 with many spikes into the hi 140's. My resting HR has dropped 5-8 points. It now sits between 55-65. Pre-workout resting HR was anywhere from 66-81. I find my HR goes up quick…

Accountability Round T25 Alpha Week 5 Day 3 Total Body I was overconfident this week. Not sure what happened this AM but I am wiped. Could only eat 1/2 my breakfast. Total body kicked my behind today. After coming so close to killing it on Monday I faded and the last 8 minutes where horrendous. Sad I won't get another go…

Forget about the binge. Keep moving forward starting today:) Its been a little while since I did upper focus. I think I remember it being a bit low on the HR Burn.

Accountability Round 2 T25 Alpha Week 5 Day 2 Abs NAILD IT!!- Pushed hard and made it through the workout with 0 breaks and 0 mods. Abs are killing but I did it. Little disapointed that HR is low in this workout but it is still a good ab work. 3 more workouts and back to BETA..Goal is to Nail Total Body tomorrow and then…

Accountability Round 2 T25 Alpha Total Body Circuit HR High 171 Avg 144. I finally broke through my wall and maintained a 140 HR for the entire 25 minute work out. I pushed through everything taking only 2 10 sec breaks during oblique knee push-ups. Nailed 98% of this work out. With 2 more goes at this week, expect to see…

Accountability Today we took a 5 mile hike up "Telegraph Pass." This is a rocky hike, first you hike roughly 2 miles over rocky/hilly terrain then the fun starts as you climb a half mile paved trail up a service road roughly 1500-1800 feet. The hole while I was carrying my 3 year old on my shoulders (34 pounds) Runkeeper…

STATurday Total Weight Loss: 36.2 Weight 3 Waist 0 Hip 0 Chest +1 Right Arm 0 Left Arm 0 Right Thigh 1 Left Thigh 0.5 At least I am showing a 3 pound weight loss for the week. Not really sure where the weight came off. Small movements on the measurements. My waist hasn't moved in a couple of weeks emoticon I am hoping it…

Lets start out by saying I am a scale addict. My wife has to put the scale up at times to keep me off it. With that being said, scales are the most unreliable way to measure progress. I have seen my weight go up 2 pounds in a week but I lost an inch off my waiste and hips. You should both weigh and use measurments to…

Sleep Sounds good. 4am workouts are starting to be a killer.

Accountability T25 Round 2 Week 4 Day 5 Doubled Total Body + Speed 1.0 I tried my hardest to smash Total Body but in the end TBC won. I followed it up with Speed 1.0 and figure I smashed it. I specificaly worked on pushing everything to the max today and think I actually completed Speed 1.0 the way it was designed. For the…

Bedrock - Happy BETA Phase, I will be back to Beta in exactly 11 days..Can't wait. I miss Beta. I finally was able to nail every Alpha Video except Core Cardio. I am hoping to nail Core Cardio by the end of week 5 but the planks are a killer on my shoulders.

Hi Painting Dreams, I would like to sujest the following progression. It was developed by an aquaintence of mine from Beachbody motivation group. this man has made a huge change in his life and has a great transformation. I am not sure on your ability but I sujest: Bridge (included below), Power 90, T25, Insanity I am…

Accountability Round 2 T25 Week 4 Day 4 Lower Focus Well, this is my least favorite workout in the series. I can push as hard as I need to and barely keep my HR over 100. At 1 point I hit 135 but for the most part it stayed in teh 90's. Perhaps if I add waits. I do feel the workout in the thighs though and I guess that is…

Accountability Round 2 T25 Alpha Week 4 day 3 Core Cardio Gahhh, I nailed everything but the damn plank push-ups. Made it through the first round of tap left right, tap push-ups, next time they showed up I floundered miserably. I punished everything else. Only a few more shots at nailing this workout before Beta Burpees…

I would try upping your protein. Add some tuna, protein shake to your diet. My coach recomends something like 1 gram of protein per pound of weight.

Accountability Round 2 T25 Week 4 Day 2 Double Cardio/Abs Was not able to work out Monday as we did a lot of family stuff, bike rides, playground, walking dog but burned a bunch of calories. Today we did a double to make up for yesterday. Nailed both Cardio and Abs today. I made it through Abs without any major breaks,…

Accountability Just went for a 10 mile bike ride with my wife and boys. Burned 476 calories for the 1hr 7 min ride.

Yes, she is doing T25 with me as well. She has no wait loss but is constantly losing inches around her body. I think she is building muscle at a higher rate than fat loss. Muscle weighs 2 x as much as fat :)

Hay Bedrock, This has been a rest weekend. 2 things very important when working out and dieting. 1. T25 will build some muscle and you may see some increase but keep pushing play and results will come. I have had at least 3 weeks of increase in weight and inches but they go back down and I am at 31 pounds lost total so…

STATurday Total Weight Loss: 33.2 Weight 1 Waist 1 Hip 0.5 Chest 0.5 Right Arm 0 Left Arm 0 Right Thigh 0 Left Thigh 0 Not bad, after this weekends splurge and yesterdays brownie with caramel + almonds + oatmeal cookie I expected to have no change this week. a 1 pound loss and 1 off my waist was a happy bonus. Bedrock - I…

Accountability T25 Round 2 Week 3 Day 5 Comlpeted Core Cardio and am on track to smashing it by the end of week 5. Completed the spiders and first round of spider push-ups. Avg HR 142 (highest so far. I completed 45 Burpees this am. I can instantly tell when my HR goes above 150. I was at Burpee 30 and I collapsed, lungs…

Accountability FT25 Round 2 Week 3 Day 4 Lower Focus Well, I am nailing the Alpha phases except for Core Cardio. This was another workout where I pushed hard. Hr was in the 140's for some of it but dropped way down 84 at one point. Lower focus is too slow for my taste, I am not sure if I am getting looney but I love the…

Accountability T25 Alpha Round 2 Speed 1.0 This is now my favorite video from Alpha series I nailed it today. I complained that with all the stretch breaks I could not maintain a good HR. Today I pushed hard, I can't believe how much energy I had. I was sweating, exhausted, but kept going. When teh work out ended I felt…

Accountability Round 2 T25 Week 3 Day 1 Core Cardio Made it through the workout pushing hard. It appears the harder I push, the harder the video is. I almost made it through the plank, tap, tap pushup series. I will nail the entire seriers before the end of Alpha. by the end of the video my lungs were burning, abs hurt…

Bedrock - 2.0 is much better than speed 1.0 :) I am hoping after I complete the next 8 weeks I will enjoy Speed 3.0 in Gamma. I got scared of Gamma and decided to do another round of Alpha/Beta before takling Gamma.

Accountability Round 2 Week 2 Day 5 Abs I suck at this video, my abs suck and I can barely push through, having to modify or rest several times. Wish my hipflexors would improve. I did make it through the video with a lot of self-talk and determination. Burpee Challenge - Day 4: 20 completed, I added a jump at the end.…

Not over training, I think I am eating too few calories. I uped my lunch calories by 200 and my energy shot way up this afternoon. Looking forward to STATurday.

Accountability Round 2 Week 2 Day 4 Cardio Brought my A game to the workout but my knees did not follow. I pushed hard for 22 minutes. Knees went into the "Danger pain" so I lightened up a lot and modified for the last 2 minutes. I am starting to get worried, my knees are slowly starting to hurt more and more as I push…

Accountability T25 Round 2 Week 2 Day 3 Speed 1.0 Much better workout than yesterday. I nailed this one. I pushed hard enough that I was looking forward to the stretch breaks this time. HR monitor is not working so I don't know my Avg HR. 20 burpees during Speed 1.0 + my 10 burpees afterwards for the Burpee challenge. JZ -…
