What is Focus T25?
Focus T25 is a full-body workout program developed by Shaun T, a Beachbody fitness instructor, and creator of Insanity and Insanity Max:30.
These intense workouts use your own body weight to give you the results of working out for an hour in just 25 minutes through its use of high intensity interval training (HIIT). Which means maximum results in less time.
Some benefits of HIIT training:
- reduce your heart rate
- Lower blood pressure
- lower blood sugar levels
- build lean muscle
- Increase metabolism and weight loss potential
Personally, I’m a huge fan of the program. As a busy working mom with little kids, I found that it was the perfect workout to get amazing results with just a short daily workout.

Getting started with the T25 workout program
Equipment
While the program boasts that it requires no equipment, for your comfort, it’s recommended that you have the following:
- Mat (both me and my knees love this mat)
- Towel
- Water bottle
If you choose to do the Gamma cycle you will incorporate hand weights.
Accessing the Program
Focus T25 is available as a dvd workout series and streaming via a BeachBody On Demand subscription.
Note that the T25 DVD box set is no longer on Amazon at time of writing , but there are several options on eBay.

The Focus T25 FAQ

Should I do T25?
While the Focus T25 workouts include modifications to accommodate various fitness levels, as this is an intense workout, it does require a baseline level of fitness. If you have bad knees, you may want to consider a different program.
If you workout regularly, you are most likely a great candidate for T25. if you do not exercise regularly, you may want to start a regular exercise regime before attempting T25.
Using the Free Printable T25 Calendar PDF
Each of the free printable Focus T25 Calendar templates include the following:
- The daily exercise to follow the workout schedule
- A Daily Self assessment where you can select whether you nailed the workout or barely survived. Tracking this will help you to see trends and also track you progress as you get stronger.
- Weekly Progress Tracking on Saturday. I have created 2 different calendars for each download with different way to track your progress.
Tracking Weekly Progress
For each phase, I’ve included 2 different calendars. The only difference is how you track your progress on Saturdays.
The first tracks your weight and body measurements including chest, waist, thigh, and arm circumference.
However, getting caught up in measurements can lead to both disordered eating and unhealthy exercise habits. Which means tracking measurements doesn’t necessarily lead to a healthier lifestyle.
And truthfully, measurements aren’t always the best way to track progress. For me personally, I like to track my energy levels and strength.
Therefore, I’ve added a second page with space to track progress and reflect with 2 prompts:
- How I feel – This allows you to track your strength and energy level. Are you sleeping better? Feeling stronger? Getting a mood boost?
- Plan for next week – This is a space to reflect how you might change your plan for next week based on what you learned this week. Maybe you want to plan to workout at a different time of day. Or have a snack before you workout in order to increase energy.
You have both options, so use what’s best for you!
