So I've been pretty consistent doing the videos in the mornings and I think that has definitely helped. Sometimes, I've had to do it in the afternoons or even evenings and I feel like my energy levels are significantly lower. Ah well, here goes:
Cardio
This workout definitely focused on the gradual build up. It started slow but by the end, my calves were on fire and it was pretty much an entire lower body focus. There were some core moves but it definitely got tough in the BurnOut section.
Ab Intervals
I think this is a workout that could've been added in more frequently. If you're familiar with P90X's Ab Ripper X, you'll enjoy this 25 minute ab focused video. The best part to me was that it also worked your back. Yeah! Your back is an important part of your core and this workout was great!
Speed 1.0
Probably the video that required the most coordination and balance. Some parts of it were very "dance like" but I didn't mind because it really made me focus on my form for every move. Fortunately, there were lots of stretches that gave you that break from the constant moving.
Lower Focus
The title of this one is a dead giveaway for what you're in for. Lots of quad and hamstring work. Since these are such large muscles, I definitely saw that I burned more calories and sweat like crazy!
Total Body Circuit
Holy shoulder burn! This is the only video in the first set that had a legitimate upper body focus. It was the hardest video (for me) but definitely my favorite. With exercises moves like Shoulder-Tap Push-Ups and 180 degree squat jumps into burpees.
So for the results... I lost 7lbs on the scale! I'm not sure how that breaks down into pounds of fat vs. pounds of muscle but I'm looking for 8-12 pounds during the Beta round. If you're doing T25, comment and let me know how it's going for you! What should I be prepared for? What is your favorite workout?
