There is no equipment needed for the Alpha cycle except for a floor mat. The music is not my favorite - nothing recognizable that you can get lost in and therefore forget you are even working out - but the music samples Shaun T’s voice telling you to “focus,” so it’s not all bad.

The DVD production is clean, the stage is FOCUSed, and Shaun T’s featured exercisers each have their own testimonies of success of the program. You get the aforementioned calendar - perfect for putting on your wall to remind you to GET FIT and DO IT - and all nine DVDs fit in a nice slim wallet that’s small and compact enough to slip into your purse if you go out of town unexpectedly. I’m a packaging sucker, and the packaging on this program is tight. This workout is hard. I marked the “barely made it” more times than I’d like to admit on the included calendar. Focus T25 is not for those who like to “have fun” and feel like they aren’t working out (you know, people like me). This workout is not for the faint of heart. Beta, but I guess that’s because Alpha did what it was supposed to do and gave me a strong foundation for the Beta moves! It’s always good when a program does what it says it will! I didn’t notice that much of an increase in the difficulty of Alpha vs. I did four weeks of the Alpha and one week of Beta. But I guess when you are doing an intensive speed, agility program you’ve gotta expect some of that. I will say that there was a lot of repetition of the same moves across all 11 workouts. So variety is definitely a plus of this program. Each cycle has five different workouts, one for each day of the week with double days on Fridays and a Stretch DVD for you to recover on Sundays. So if you like to sweat and work hard, Focus T25 is perfect for you.įocus T25 is a two-cycle program: a beginning 5-week Alpha cycle followed by a 5-week Beta cycle.

Hard work, intense work, bone-cracking, knee-aching-the-next-morning work. Plop my two kids in front of an episode, and I get 25 minutes with Shaun T! This plan could work for me! But if you’re going to work out for “just” 25 minutes you can bet your booty it’s going to be WORK. Get fit and fab in just 25 minutes? Um, yes I like the sound of that - that is about the same duration of a Dora the Explorer episode.
