BeachBody on Demand Weekly Review: Week ending 10/23/15

Beachbody on Demand Weekly Review

It’s been about a week and a half since we ended the 30-day FREE trial of Beachbody on Demand.

The one thing I was most worried about, was that now that I wasn’t blogging about what I did every day, would I keep up with exercising?

The answer is mostly yes, except for weekends. Last weekend I just needed the sleep, and didn’t get to exercise. Hopefully it won’t be that way every week, and I’ll have 5-6 days of exercise each week.

Here’s what I’ve been doing since the 30-day free trial ended:

  • 10/14 Turbo Fire Abs 10 and Turbo Fire Stretch 10 – This has become a go-to when we want to do something that isn’t cardio and don’t want to spend a lot of time. It’s nice and quick, and we both feel like we’re getting a great ab workout.
  • 10/15 Master Trainers – Round 12 – Express Insanity LIVE with Katy Meuer – I was playing around on the Beachbody on Demand website, and noticed a “Master Trainers” section that isn’t on the Roku. It has a bunch of 30 minute routines not found anywhere else. So I set the laptop up, and we did it from that. It wasn’t as good as using the Roku, but was pretty good. I liked the routine.
  • 10/16 Turbo Fire Abs 10 – We didn’t have much time, and this was better than doing nothing.
  • 10/19 P90X3 MMX – I still love this workout!
  • 10/20 Turbo Fire Abs 10 & Turbo Fire Stretch 10 – See above.
  • 10/21 Master Trainers – Round 65 Express Turbo Kick LIVE! Julie Voris – This one wasn’t very exciting, and I doubt we’ll do it again. I was SO hoping that it would be at least a little similar to P90X3 MMX, but it wasn’t even close. There wasn’t really that much kicking at all.
  • 10/23 Turbo Fire HIIT 25 – We really liked this one. I thought we had done it before, but a lot of them have such similar names in Turbo Fire. It turned out to be one we hadn’t done before, and was 4 sets of routines, each done twice. It was a great workout, and I got over 2,000 steps from it! It’s just under 25 minutes, and that’s including the warmup and cooldown.

What did I get out of the past week and a half?

  • I think that Turbo Fire Abs 10 along with Turbo Fire Stretch 10 will continue to be a “go-to” when we don’t have a lot of time, but want to feel like we at least got a good ab workout. It’s quick, but it’s rough!! It’s also great for days where we don’t want to do cardio, and don’t want to spend 5 minutes figuring out what to do.
  • I still love P90X3 MMX. Nothing has changed. I’m sure I’ll keep doing this once a week. It’s fun and I wish there was more like it.
  • I think Turbo Fire HIIT 25 will become a new “once a week” workout just like the P90X3 MMX. It was easy to follow, but there were a lot of great moves. I got a lot of steps, was exhausted by the end of the workout, and really, really enjoyed it.
  • I really do need to put a bit more effort into working out. I took both days of the weekend off, and when I had something to do early on a weekday, just skipped it instead of doing something later in the day. I really want to average 6 days a week working out, so I’m going to have to make sure that happens.

So far I’m still really glad I continued and am paying for Beachbody on Demand. Even after a month and a week, I’m still finding a lot of new workouts. I’m still having fun, and doing something different each morning.
