  • I don't necessarily have back pain from my breasts, but I'm definitely familiar with it as I've had scoliosis since childhood, wore a back brace as an adolescent and have had two spinal fusion surgeries. In the past few years I've made a conscious decision not to let my back pain keep me from getting in shape, but it's…

  • So the way I've been breaking it down thus far is Legs day, Bis/Tris/Shoulders day and Chest and Back day (with some overlap between the upper body days). I try to mostly focus on compound moves like squats, deadlifts, OHP, bench, lat pulls, dips, pull ups, etc. so that I'm also using other muscles. This has been my…

  • I have idiopathic scoliosis that was diagnosed at age 11 (now 24). I wore a back brace for 2 years in childhood, then had spinal fusion to correct my still-advancing curve at age 18, then developed a complication and had the fusion revised at age 20. My curve is double, one thoracic one lumbar, forming a backward S. I…

It was too high impact and I was constantly working through pain and injuries. I developed such severe lower back pain that I was…
    in Real Focus T25 Results? Anyone got a unbiased review? Comment by khaleesi_16388 July 2014
  • I would tend to agree with the previous posts in a few regards. 5lb/wk loss is not sustainable long term and will lead to so-called yo-yo dieting. The same goes for such a strenuous daily exercise routine and severe caloric restriction. You will end up starving your body of essential nutrients and it will go into survival…

  • Prior to leaving for my recent 3 week vacation, I did about 8 weeks of T25. I had previously done P90X and was getting great results (I'm 24 and didn't do much of ANYTHING active the first 20 years of my life, have always been pretty "skinny-fat"). I loved going from zero to strong and fit and saw major muscle growth and…
