I will be starting Chalean Extreme tomorrow - 29th July. Would anybody like to start it with me or is there anybody out there who has just started? How are things going? I could really do with some motivation and support.

Add me as a friend or leave me some comments. Much appreciated! smile

    Good luck! I'm looking for cheap weights too, but I can't start anyway until the kids are in school.

    Yes, I have 4 children at home at the moment so know exactly what you mean. They're not back at school and nursery until the second week of September. If I put off CLX any longer though I know for definite I won't start it lol.

    I just started Chalean Extreme today with Burn 1 and was coming here to see how other people record it in their exercise diary. I've done Chalean before but not all the way through to completion. I'd love an exercise buddy to help keep me accountable!

    I actually spoke out loud to myself 'you can do this!' several times. I suspect I will be more than a little sore tomorrow when I have Burn Intervals + Abs Burner scheduled.

    I just started it again today. I did it once a couple of years ago all the way through and enjoyed it.

    My weights are ancient - they're my husband's from many years ago, and they're not pretty but they get the job done. :-)

    I'm starting it on the first Monday of August, one week from today, so anyone else starting it, please message me or add me as a friend. I'd love to have a buddy to suffer through it with!

    Well done on starting! I unfortunately didn't get round to starting as intended...I just haven't had any motivation lately, hence the post! I have lots of spare time later on this evening so I am going to try and start it then.
    How are you finding the program so far?
    I'm sending you a FR :)

    Hi! I did P90X once and then I got Chalean Extreme and did that a few times but I never really gave it my all. My arms got nicer and I lost a few inches all over though. I restarted it today! I made it through the day w/ tons of stuff going on but at 9:30, after I watched last night's Extreme Makeover Weight Loss, I did Burn 1. I did it slow and awesome and I sweat a lot - woo!

    My brief backstory - I have baby weight. My baby is 6 3/4. Whoops.

    I started Chalean Extreme this week. I completed Insanity in early July. I reached my goal weight but, need to tighten up. I am currently using the resistance bands but, will be purchasing the bowflex adjustable weights soon. I am enjoying the workouts and definitely feel the muscle soreness. Can't wait to see my progress 3 months from now. I have been on this lifestyle journey for 19 months now.

    Doing CLX too. I started several weeks ago, did week one, then stopped just because I got busy. No- not for a good reason....

    So started back today 8/4 - Burn 1 tonight. I'm doing C25K too. Got through week 2 of that before I crashed. So starting over at week one tomorrow.

    Sending a FR.

    Hi! I started it today with Burn Phase 1. I am 9 pounds from my goal weight and hoping this fires up my metabolism to get me past my plateau:)
