T25 Beta Review

I am on week 3 of the Beta round of T25.  I wanted to post another review on my progress and thoughts so far.  Keep in mind that I am 20 weeks pregnant, so I have been modifying with lower impact moves, although I still try and do as many without modifications as I can.  Most of the modifications come in the ab/ floor exercises, which I either do on a BOSU, or try and come up with a standing version.

Pros: 
  • 25 minutes is easy to get in!  Even when I don't feel like working out, I can talk myself into 25 minutes.
  • Shaun T is the perfect trainer.  Pushes you, but fun and nothing annoying about him.
  • Beta is very different than Alpha, so you get a wide variety.  I did love Beta, so at first, I was bummed to be done, but Beta has its own perks, and I love it now as well.
  • Even pregnant, my arms and legs have slimmed down and become more toned.  (My stomach obviously is growing, but I feel like my obliques are firmer.)  I've been told you store fat when pregnant, but I don't think that has happened for me yet, which is just fine.  I started with enough fat stores, haha!
  • 5 weeks is just long enough to get the routine, but not long enough to get bored!  I just ordered the Gamma round (doesn't come with the basic order) for another 5 weeks of T25.
Cons:
  • None
I really tried to come up with a con, but couldn't.  This is my favorite Beachbody program so far (or at least, it ties with Turbo Jam and Turbo Fire, but it's shorter.)  The only thing I could see for other people is that if you are a beginner, this may not be the best place to start.  However, with modifications and being 25 minutes, even newbies can make this work.

Order T25 Today!
