    Day 1 & Day 2 complete, I am sore but happy to be moving again ~ see you tomorrow ~ REST DAY!

    Which for me will actually include me doing all the cooking for the week, packing breakfast, lunch and snacks for myself and my husband. Must plan ahead or I WILL pick junk to eat every time :wink:

    Day 2 done! I feel pretty good about it because I did not want to workout today. I was up all night with a sick little boy and I have had no energy all day. But I knew I needed to workout and push hard. So I did and now I feel great!

    Day 1 & 2 complete.

    Anyone use a juicer? We got one for Christmas. I want to use it, but I enjoy food so much. haha

    After a cruise and the holidays I need a detox

    TF 30 in the books. I always enjoy Chalene telling me I'm not tired, right when I'm .... well you know. Time to get ready for school and get the 2015 year going.

    Coach, I have always wanted to try the juicer, just can't seem to want to spend the money in case I don't like it. And, yes, I like to eat my food too, might feel ripped off if I drank it!

    My back was sore the past few days, better today, thankfully.

    I did wake up last night around 11 with a stomach ache, did not make today's workout very fun, but I did it! Well, except for the dreaded Stretch 10 lol

    Happy Monday, Day 4 completed!

    Day 4 completed: Fire Started Class!! So much easier than the first day. :D

    I also got my first Heart Rate Monitor. I love it! Didn't really feel it and I was excited to see how much I burned.

    Day 5 complete! Fire 55 EZ (the EZ is a bit misleading though).

    This workout does remind me the most of Turbo Jam, just faster.

    What is Fire Starter? Is that the new Fire 30?

    Happy Tuesday my friends!

    Not thrilled about Thursday's workout. Core 20 and Stretch 40? I'm sure there is a reason it is on the schedule, but............ :s

    Fire Starter is 30 minutes long and it goes through and teaches all the important moves. Be Light I would love to do a stretch 40 (nap time) :) but again I don't have one of those.

    Good morning everyone. Had a great workout this morning although I think I need to get into the bed earlier.

    Snowdancer, you'll be amazed to see how many calories you burn with a HRM. What subject do you teach? I am a high school resource teacher. I work mainly with 10-12 grade young men. They're easier to manage than girls. Haha

    Be light, I've been doing a little research and it looks like TF has been changed a bit. At first glance it appears that it alternates the emphasis of one week cardio and one week HIIT. We do 3 weeks at a time or something like that.

    Have a great day!

    Do you think they are different workouts or just relabeled? I am curious!

    Ha ~ just found the answer on the Beachbody website: Fire 40 is the NEW name for Fire 45 EZ. Fire 55 is the new name for Fire 55 EZ

    hey everyone. I have been looking through the schedule and have decided to make a few changes to it to suit my needs. I will exercise Monday to Friday, and miss out the core class + 40 stretch so that I can do my outdoor run on sundays. Hope I don't get kicked out!!

    Once you're in you're in.

    I'm not a runner so I'll stick to the schedule. :D

    Hi everyone!! I did the same thing that BeLight did - researched why the difference. They are basically the same workouts just labeled differently. Why - I don't know. :) I just did the Fire 45 EZ today. I am sort of following Coach and BeLight but sort of following my schedule. Tomorrow on my schedule shows me doing the Fire Starter class - but I'm going to do the Fire 30 class (like Coach and BeLightYear) instead. I have done the Fire Starter Class enough over the past week or so.

    Day 5 completed! Feeling a little better each day. :D

    Coach I teach math all Pre-algeba through Calculus. With all the standards it has been difficult but I still love the kids.

    Day 6 Complete!

    I am still having a hard time wanting to do Core 20 tomorrow, maybe that and a 20 minute Turbo Jam to burn some extra calories? We shall see.....

    Wow snowdancer. That's a lot of prep time. I've been doing it 27 years. I love my job and coaching football and track.

    I'm with you BeLight. I don't mind Core 20 but I don't really care for the stretch 40. I will lift weights in the afternoon and jump on the elliptical.

    I have to admit after 55 yesterday and 30 today my shoulders are a little sore. I almost forgot what getting up at 4:30 am felt like. I'm going to have to make a better effort at getting in the bed earlier. I am also eating much cleaner so hopefully we'll see some great improvement and weight loss as well.

    Have a great day.
