Had a look at the T25 stuff tonight as my time is limited at the moment.
What are the likely results from this programme?
I guess it depends on what condition you are in now, I remember you did Insanity not too long ago like me so that should mean your fitness is decent?
As I say I am on week 2 of beta now and I am enjoying it. I have lost 12 lbs so far, the weight loss is not as drastic as with Insanity for me but I think in part that is because it is easier to lose when there is more of it, if I'd done T25 instead of Insanity back when I was 2 stone heavier, I may have lost more.
With T25 I have noticed I am actually getting a body shape back for the first time in over a decade, so it is lean definition which is my expectation now. I'm 1 to 2 jeans sizes smaller than I was when I started, so that is a definite T25 thing, my waist is smaller in 6 weeks of T25 than it was with 8/9 weeks of Insanity. But again, is that cumulative effect? Possibly. I expect to lose a few more pounds and that, combined with the core strengthening, should see me come out of this with muscle definition and weight loss. I am also much more flexible now, but again it is hard to say whether that is just T25 alone or a combination of Insanity and then progressing to T25.
T25 is undoubtedly more convenient than Insanity, but I can't shake the basic feeling that 25 mins of exercise, however much you push, just isn't going to be the same as 50-60 mins with Insanity. Shaun T says Insanity is harder, T25 is smarter. But I am seeing results so weight loss and definition, alongside a general feel good feeling from doing the exercises and eating well, would be my take on what to expect.
