However, the workouts are not actually 25 minutes long. After doing the workouts, I now know the “T” stands for the T in Shaun T’s name and the “25” is the length of the workouts. The setting for the workouts is a big room with “T25” on the back wall. You also get a bonus stretch workout, a nutrition guide, rotation calendars and some other little guides–fast track, quick start, etc. However, looking at the breakdown on Beachbody’s website, it looks like I did get everything except for the resistance band.Īlpha Phase contains 5 workouts, Beta Phase contains 5 workouts and Gamma Phase contains 4 workouts. Since I bought this program used off of Ebay, I am not sure I received everything. If you are inspired by their weight loss because that is your goal then you have to also create a calorie deficit–just like they did–to achieve similar results. They worked out consistently and stopped eating crap. They are also due to what the person puts in their mouth. All of those amazing before and after pictures you see that inspire you to purchase these programs are never due to the workouts alone. If you want results, two things are crucial–consistency and diet. What I can say with confidence applies to any program, not just this one. I did not approach these workouts as a weight loss program so I didn’t follow the diet plan or tape measure myself before starting. So that’s what you will get in this review. I can compare them to other workouts and programs and share whether I like them or not. But since I do workout consistently I can gauge their level and intensity, as well as what I notice about myself while I am doing them. So when I do these programs they are always combined with other things. That is because I workout longer than 25 minutes a day. Now, I cannot give a truly accurate review of this or any other program like it. The idea behind this program (and many other programs out there these days) is fast results in less time. I now own Focus T25 Alpha, Beta and Gamma. And I won it super cheap! The first time I bid! So things have apparently changed. I even deleted it from my ebay following tab. Then, due to a comment on this blog, I decided to try again. I won P90X3 super cheap (finally!) and decided it just wasn’t in the cards for me to own Focus T25. So I just stopped trying. I always lost the bids tho because the price quickly escalated out of my price range. That didn’t stop me from following (and bidding) on it on Ebay many times over the past few years. I couldn’t decide from the information and trailer that Beachbody provided whether I really wanted this program or not. diet is the 1st most important tool.I have been on the fence about this program for a long time. I am not a beginner, but i do both HIIT and weightlifting when im wanting to cut weight.Īnd i think everybody here will tell you. muscle needs fuel meaning calories just to exist. just a general note in my opinion, putting on muscle is a sure fire weight loss strategy. i don’t know how much muscle mass you have. My opinion is to start where u feel you will keep it up and continue. i think doing a bench press would be a beginner move by comparison. but if its due to difficulty level with body control or priorities in goals, etc. I mean, im not sure why you say your not ready to start weights. To follow either t25 or tabata work out, which one do you think is the best for fast weight loss with a proper diet, thanks.personally, the best, most effective tabata workouts ive done are using weights. Hi gentlemen, I don't feel like I'm ready to start lifting weights yet, I want to lose about 20 kilos first, and I'm looking
