Afraid of Imax extreme... anyone else?

[ChicagoJen]

Hello All,

Well, I've had the Terminator DVD for a couple of weeks and I've been avoiding Imax extreme like the plague. Imax and Imax 2 are bad enough, my gosh! By interval 9 in Imax2 I'm making boo hoo sounds that no one's hearin' and I don't even care! LOL!

Does anyone else have the same phobia? I have the same problem with Body Max...I've done it 2 times! Give me major weight work any day... all of that cardio just kills me!

I'm just going to take the plunge and do Imax Extreme... If I modify, I modify... All in due time, I guess...

Keep up the hard work everyone and have a great weekend!

It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The original IMaxes were harder IMO.

IMAX Xtreme in my opinion is really a lot of fun! It is not as bad as you think! Give it a go!

Its hard! I have only done it once!!

I agree with Andrea, IMax Extreme is easier than the original Imaxs. The C&W step portions give you a longer time to rest between the IMax interval work plus C&W is just plain FUN - a little sugar mixed in with the medicine! Give it a try - you'll love it!

Even though it's been said, and said some more, this forum does not mind repetition, so let me just say that Imax Extreme is easier than either of the Imaxes because the C&W cardios give you breathers in between.

OK?

I said it!

If this 50 year old can do, you can too. LOL I agree with the others, Imax Extreme is easier than Imaxs. Interval 8 and 10 of the first Imax is still hard for me to do. I really like Imax 2. But as the girls said, because of the pauses of C&W, Imax Extreme is more user friendly.
