I'd like to do the work out with my husband. Can we be able to do the training at the Same time.? I mean, will be there 'bands' and such for both?

I rarely used the bands, so yes what a great way to stay motivated. It's easier when someone else is working with you. Happy exercising.

hi I bought my bands separate from DVD. I think you would have to buy an extra one if you purchases whole package. I purchases DVD for 24 and band for 10. Good deal and good video easy to follow workouts.

I don't, but I don't see any reason why you couldn't. Honestly, I would probably get bored. I threw in a day where I would lift weights, and then I would throw in the P90 Cardio routine on the off days.

Yes, no problem. There's an A and a B program. You can set some zones for one and the rest on the other so they can run separate schedules. I do that with mine as well.

There are a few different workouts. I typically do the disco workout and I do the dance party. Of course the disco has disco music..the dance party. Has some Michael Jackson, Madonnna, etc......

I would recommend you get to the point of being able to do one, but it may still work. I could only do 1 or 2 when I got it. The bands that come with it gives a lot of resistance so it probably will work.

You probably will not be able to do this. I'm 5'3", 135 pounds and 20 years old, pretty fit and some of the routines still kick my butt. I would recommend Gilad's Quick Fit System... I lost 45 pounds on this program after I had my daughter

You should definitely invest in some crosstrainers. There is a lot of lateral movement in this program. I put down interlocking gym flooring over my carpet. Looks like a big grey puzzle but working great to keep the sweat off my carpet and easing the wear and tear.

I HIGHLY suggest getting a mat...the resistance band should come with your package but don't use weights.

There is a low impact modification for people with bad knees, back, ankles, etc. My wife could not do Insanity because of the high impact, but she has finished Alpha and Beta rounds of T25 with amazing results doing all low impact modification. What's the best is we can do it together for motivation. I do the regular workout and she follows Tanya, the low impact modifier person.I highly recommend this workout to anyone. In fact, we saw such dramatic results, we are now doing the Gamma cycle.

I second Karen. There is one cardio DVD included with this set but it is truly a strength training program. No jumping or bouncing required. I LOVE this program, hope you do too. One note - it's actually cheaper to buy direct from BB, you get one more free workout DVD and then you can send it back if you don't like it. Let me know if you want details. I'm a coach. Thanks!

It's going to be very challenging but any exercise program will be if you haven't worked out much before. Go slowly. Modify as much as you need. Pause the DVD if you need. As long as you come back every day and push play you WILL get better, stronger and leaner. Don't use weights at 1st and I double the warmup and cool down times. Good luck.

You could use bands but I think the dumbbells are a better workout. 2 sets of two different weights would be a good start and then more later as you get stronger. As far as how heavy?, that's up to your current strength level but starting lighter is smarter as you are required to use them and focus on balance at the same time. I recommend a chin up bar but it does not need to be fancy. I also recommend the medicine balls. I bought an 8# and 10# ball which has its advantages and disadvantages. I have 2 different weights to use with the different exercises but when you have to use them both, the two sizes make it asymmetrical but still workable. I may buy another one of each since 4 balls come in handy for the later workouts. I really enjoy rolling out the muscle groups and think a foam roller is important but it does not need to be expensive. Cheap ones may get flattened after a short while so I wouldn't get too cheap with this item. Hope this helps.

I'm not an expert, but I don't think that's advisable. If you want a single piece of equipment to do both, I suggest you keep looking for a combination style machine. I have seen them here designed to work multiple areas. The only caution is that combination equipment often comes with trade offs in performance or design.

It's not possible for me, HOWEVER, my goal is not working out, but to not sit during hours that I spend on the computer/online. Have reviewed the data and it seems, at least from what I was able to determine, that walking, even "slowly", vs. sitting is much, much preferable. I do my working out at other times.

Not for a beginner if you do not go at your own pace. It is hard on your knees but using a larger workout pad helps. I am 60 years old, was not very active for two years with my shoulder (operated on twice in 2012), so I was way out of shape at the start of T25. I just went at my own pace at first and did not try to keep up with the people in the workouts. I am kicking butt now, for me. My shoulder is coming around. The main thing is to know your own body and not over do it. I love being done in 25 minutes!

Depending on the size of the gym you would probably need two. I would try one first.

Try this: Go to a pull up bar and try to hang from one hand (DON'T just let your weight drop on your hand entirely, place the weight of your body on just one arm but keep your feet on the floor, then slowly remove your feet if you feel you can) are you able to hang on for a few seconds with ONE hand? then yes you can start with the trainer. If you cannot, go lighter. See how long you can hang with both arms, it should be at least 25-30 seconds before messing with the trainer. I went for the trainer even though I have been doing pull ups/chin ups and such for a few years, and I wasn't able to close it at first. I used a cheaper grip instrument as a warm up then would try to close the trainer in sets of 1 to 5 reps. I also did some static holds. Now I can close it 5 times with my right hand (dominant) and 3 times with my left hand. This is after about a month of training. I don't think I'd suggest getting the guide, get the trainer and also a cheaper gripper, the guide is too expensive and you'll outgrow it really fast. I mean, you can use it for a warm up for a while, and then you can gift it or sell it to a novice trainee - I'm just saying I wouldn't. I plan to give my trainer to my son someday! I'm sure it'll last that long (don't have a kid yet) Good luck!
