I've got 20 lbs yet to lose but as much as I've worked out, it never budged. Maybe this workout set works for me right now? I don't know but I've tried Les Mills, P90x, T25, Insanity, Cathe, etc and while I enjoyed them, I wore myself out. Cranky all the way around.
I'm an advanced exerciser and if I didn't order MetaShred, I was going to order Hammer & Chisel, but the instructors esp. Autumn would get on my nerves.  I've tried 21 Day Fix twice and didn't make it through 3 days.In the workouts that I've tried before, I'd wake up with DOMS, but my shoulder or knees would be cranky and talking to me. I've had DOMS with Meta, but I'm energized all day and I sleep through the night. Something I've struggled with my whole life. I've always known that if I just cut back on some stuff, the weight would move, maybe my planets aligned right with this combo. I've always kinda shrugged off the "only 30 minutes" talk, but MetaShred is intense enough for me right now. Happy Saturday! |

It is really amazing that one can get a good workout in 30 minutes. I have been reading good books so I use the time saving to just read and relax. The combo is very meditative. I find sweaty workouts meditative. |

Are you simply alternating days with both sets in order? And these are the only workouts you are doing? |

dela,
I'm rotating the sets so this next week I'll do: MetaShred + SpeedShred Rotation Sun: Meta: Lightbody Leanout Mon: Speed: Extreme Endurance Tues: Meta: Thermogenic Tempo Training Weds: Speed: 3 Move Mayhem Thurs: Meta: 5 Minute Death Sets Fri: Speed: Metabolic Matrix Depending on how I feel is where the day of rest goes. The next week, I'll just pick up with the next 3 from SpeedShred and 3 from MetaShred. Other than the above, I'm walking at least 2 miles with my dd (3-4 times) a week. Not powerwalking, just trail walk/hike HTH Lesia |

When I first dallied with the two sets, I thought there would be a lot of cross over moves (training the same muscles which leads to over-training) but so far (I'm on Day 20) it's not bothering me. What's great about BJ is that the variety of moves he gives you for that round, you can change what you don't like to what you can do!
Example: Today I did Super Strength from SpeedShred. There is a box squat move with a weight. I tried the way he showed, but I wanted an extra oomp so I took my 25 lb weight plate, did the box squat (where you butt touches the box and then stand up) but I added an overhead press when I stood up. Wowza! It took it to the next level. In 30 sec. I was able to crank out at least 8-10 reps. Just right! |

Delta-Fit/SpeedShred is a bigger system (18 workouts or so) and on the intermediate side.
MetaShred imho is tougher! It's SpeedShred on steroids! I'm combining both because since I've been doing DF/SS longer, I know how to increase/decrease intensity + to me, it has a different focus. Lesia |
