Turbo Fire - Day 1 Nov 7 2010

YogaRunner

Hi Everyone,
I am starting a round of Turbo Fire today and would love others to join me, keep one another motivated and accountable. I know there is probably another thread on here of others doing Turbo Fire, but I thought I'd see if anyone is starting it now who would join me here. I hope to blast tons of fat! I had been down to a body fat percentage of 20.2, but am up to 27.3. It's time to get rid of it and get those wash board abs I've been dreaming of!

Good Morning! I just completed the EZ 55 workout. It is not EZ!!! Feel great!!! I am starting my third week of Turbo Fire tomorrow. I haven't been working out since last spring. TF is really motivating me to stick with it. I feel great when I'm done and Chalean keeps my mind on track.

Wishing YoaRunner luck with your muffin top. I am trying to get rid of entire batch of muffins for a Jamaican vacation in Feb. Although I am really working on this goal for myself a little swimsuit motivation never hurts.

I'm currently doing ChaLEAN Extreme and mixing in random Turbo Fire workouts as cardio every day (and sometimes a Turbo Jam video - they're so fun!).

Even though I'm not sticking to a strict TF schedule, I'd love to still be a part of keeping each other accountable and motivated!

I actually, like Jamaica2, did 55EZ yesterday...and it actually wasn't as hard as I thought! lol. Tried to do 45 EZ today but only made it 10 min through and decided I just didn't have the energy to do it

What do you guys do when you start out a TF workout and you just aren't feeling it? Is there anything you do or say to yourself to keep going?

YogaRunner

Well, I did HIIT 15 and stretch 10 this morning. We can do most anything for 15 min, right? LOL I do my workout in my family room because our basement, where I usually work out, is carpeted. I find I can't do Turbo Fire on carpet. Do others have this trouble. I don't have much room in my family room, so it's a bit tricky!
Chelij - I try to tell myself positive things if I'm not feelin it. Like, I'm strong, keep going, do your best etc etc. I use those and other mantras when I run marathons too. I always know I feel better when I'm done and never regret finishing a workout!
Jamaica2 - it's good to know someone who is a couple of weeks ahead of me! A Jamaica vacation is certainly motivating!

Yay Ladies! You guys are going to love Turbo Fire. I'm just starting my 16h week and I absolutely love waking up in the morning to get my fiya on!

Best of luck to you all.

Turbo Fire is my favorite program so far. I've done Turbo Jam and CLX. I am on month 3 of Turbo Fire, the first week.

I have had GREAT results so far! You will love it! I plan on doing the TF/CLX Hybrid after I finish TF.

I ordered my disks a while back and I'm just waiting to get them in the mail, I'm super excited! I'll definitely join in!

I just finished the 12 week Turbo Fire program, loved it!! I'm seriously thinking about repeating it but doing the Chalean Extreme/Turbo Fire Hybrid.

I just got my Turbofire yesterday, so did my first workout today. It had a good intensity, but I didn't enjoy it very much. The time went quickly though. I am hoping that as I do it more, it will become more enjoyable. Or maybe the other workouts will more enjoyable. I certainly am going to give it a chance!

Tomorrow morning is Fire 30 and Stretch 10 for me. I was supposed to rest today, but did a 3 mile run anyhow. My arms and shoulders are a little sore, but in a good way. I was concerned that the muscle I gained in my arms and shoulders from doing CLE would not be maintained with Turbo Fire, but I think I'm wrong! Let me know how others who are ahead of me have done with regard to that.

Me too but I still have another 4 weeks to go on the advanced workout schedule so I won't get to the hybrid until afterwards.

I am going to be doing the advanced as well, but now I am debating doing the hybrid after or starting Insanity. Oh, the decisions!

Erin - as I was finishing up TF 45EZ this morning I started having crazy thoughts about the possibility of doing a TF/Insanity hybrid!!!!!!!!!!!:sad:

OMG my legs hurt just thinking about it! LOL!

That would be an interesting hybrid! You'll have to share your schedule with me if you make one.

Did the HIIT 15 today, and I liked that better than the first workout. That gives me hope

So glad you liked it better than the other workouts! I find every program has things I like and look forward to and then things that I dread :flowerforyou: Like .......burpees!

Hey guys! I'd like to join in too! I'm only on day 2 of the 5 day inferno but this stuff is so much fun! Hopefully we can all keep each other motivated.

Hi Hulafrog! Welcome to the fun!

Hi everyone!
I finished my first round of Insanity up over the summer and now I'm onto Turbo Fire. It's totally different, but I think I like it I am absolutely thinking about doing an Insanity/TF hybrid...or a P90x/TF hybrid. I'm looking for a real kick in the butt and I think that'll do the trick
Good luck!

I did Fire 60 tonight. I had HIIT 20 and Tone 30 this morning, but I really wanted to get rid of excess water weight from my bad weekend and it very much helped doing Fire 60! Besides, I missed that one!

I started Week 4 of the TF Prep Program this week. I will complete the Prep schedule on December 22 and will start the TF program on December 30. I would love to lose 25 more lbs throughout this time because on April 2, my wife and I are going to Maui.

I really wish I could get more feedback from men who are doing this program.

I completed Chalean Extreme in June of 2010 and then ordered TF. I did about 3 weeks before school started. I teach and coach football and I often put in about 85 hours a week. Throughtout the season I would do Sculpt 30, Tone 30, TF 30 and the HIIT workouts along with Core 20 around 4 times a week. I do want to complete the 12 week program in its entirety so I felt like I needed to complete the Prep program first.

This morning I did TF 45 EZ. I love the HIIT workouts and am still trying to get coordinated on all the moves required by TF, but that's ok.
