Do you like better than 80DO?

[Kathy G]

Liz - No problem! I hope you enjoy them when they're available to everyone on BOD!

Kate - In order of like:
1) 80 Day Obsession
2) New 21 Day Fix
3) New 21 Day Fix Extreme

But I like that the new 21 Day Fix is only 30-35 minutes long so I can add more if I have time or just do the workout by itself. With 80DO, the longer workouts took more planning in the morning (or I had to make sure I was up early enough to fit an hour in!)

There are drop sets in the exercises with weights and a modification to the exercises without weights. Autumn has you do 30 seconds with the heavier weight, then drop down to the lighter weight for the second 30 seconds. She doesn’t always say what weights she’s using so some of these are a guess, lol. You just have to figure out what works for you for each exercise. Also, the rest period between each exercise has been reduced to about 15-20 seconds so I was scrambling to jot things down!

Is anyone using UPF as a way to lose weight? I am not asking about any of the details of the nutritional aspect--just curious if any of you have had success with it as far as pounds/inches lost?

I've been loosely following it and I'm down 3.5 lbs. so far (but I've also been on a cruise and had holidays and birthdays too!)

Sorry for the delay. I am just losing momentum for the live version of 21 Day Fix Extreme! I don't know why but it has a little bit of a dread factor for me. I think it's all the "intentional" let's try to make this harder stuff. It's not that it's extremely advanced, I'd say it's high intermediate/low advanced level (with a modifier to make it easier). I think I felt this way about the original 21 Day Fix Extreme set too. I only did it once through and liked the "add-on" workouts better so I did those more than the set. Your opinion may be totally different than mine when they're posted to BOD! Plus you may beat me to the finish too.

3.5 lbs in spite of a cruise and other celebrations is fantastic!

[lizr]

Day 1 is done. Stupid surrenders...

I have slacked on my fitness the last couple months so I'm not where I was when I did 80DO last year. But it feels good to be back at it and having a program to follow. I do find Autumn very motivating. Not sure I love this cast as much as I loved the ones I spent 80 days with but it's still early....

Thank you leigh! Unfortunately it was some of the Xmas weight I had accumulated since November, lol!
