My newsfeeds have been full of posts about T25 and the posts aren't as much by my fellow coaches as they are by other awesome friends who are kicking butt and taking names. I know that fitness can be a tricky subject so I thought I'd answer some FAQs and open up an AMA (ask me anything) in the comments below. Cool? Awesome.
Q. Do I have to have done Insanity or Asylum to do T25?
A. Absolutely not. While ShaunT may have been inspired by those with awesome results coming out of Insanity and that sequel, Asylum, FocusT25 is stand alone.
Q. Ok, that's all well and good but what if I haven't been working out at all? I've got a lot of weight to lose and I haven't been active at all the past months/years/decade... You really think I can handle this?
A. Yes. Definitely yes. There's an awesome modifier in the videos and she makes every move non-impact so you can still get a great workout regardless of your beginning ability!!
Q. 25 minutes? Sounds too good to be true. There's gotta be a catch.
A. There is! You have to be willing to WORK. Yes, the workouts are only 25 minutes long BUT if you put I. The work for every minute and push yourself to you limit, you're going to see great results.
Q. So since this is such an awesome program, I can eat whatever I want, right?
A. *cringe* Suuuure.... Eat anything you want. But if you want to see results and feel healthier, you have to clean up your nutrition. No worries though, the program comes with a nutrition guide and I can help you get everything in place to make your nutrition as simple as possible.
Q. How many days each week?
A. 5. ShaunT recommends a double workout on Fridays but you could do that on Saturday if you want. It's worth it though to do the workouts back to back!
Q. I'm not sure I can do this... I get sidetracked or discouraged when I try to finish a program... I'll be lucky to make it through the first two weeks. Are you sure this is worth it?
A. I'll help you make sure it's worth it. I run monthly challenge groups and when you commit to the program and your nutrition, I'll include you in the monthly group where we will keep you on track and supported. You're never alone. I promise. I know family and friends aren't always quick to be supportive - no matter how much they love us - because fitness and health are such personal subjects. Accountability groups are no judgement zones where you'll be surrounded by others who are fighting the same fight you are!!
So now it's your turn... What do you want to know?
