Anyone starting Turbo Fire in January?

Amy_B

I'm going to start the Inferno plan today. I weighed in at 155.6 this morning. It would be so freaking awesome to be out of the 150s by the end! I have been plateaued in the 150s for a whole year!

Are you following the menu for the inferno strictly? Just curious.

Honestly, I can't really since I have my husband and three kiddos to feed. I'm going to do it pretty closely though (similar meals), and try to aim for 1200-1300 calories per day, which is lower than one MFP has me at. I have another Christmas today, but I know there will be healthier options.

I'm currently awaiting arrival of Turbo Fire but wont be starting until mid january but am excited especially after reading all of your posts.

Turbo Fire comes w/a Chalean Extreme hybrid schedule or do I have to find that somewhere else. I think I read on here that someone has it please let me know what I need to do to get it, it would be greatly appreciated.

I have a copy of the hybrid that I believe is made for people who have already done CLX. PM me your email address, and I'll send it to you.

Okay, everyone sounds pretty positive about both Chalean Extreme and Turbo Fire...it's a lot of money for me...but if it's really worth it, I could probably figure out a way...what are the benefits of one versus another? I'm 5'4", 133 lbs, trying to get down between 120-125...I'm fairly active now and not at a beginner workout level, but I need something to kick-start my body into a higher calorie-burning level. I just had to leave my MMA gym (too expensive) and loved the boxing and kickboxing drills - so a lot of videos bore me because they've lightened up the activity to make it more accessible to more people...I want a tough workout that makes me wonder if I'm going to make it through - so that I can feel amazing when I finish it. I used to own her Turbo Jam series and liked it well enough until I got into MMA, and then Turbo Jam just wasn't enough of a challenge. Thanks!!

ChaLean Extreme is a great strength workout, but it's not too difficult on the few cardio workouts included. Turbo Fire, from the three videos I've done so far, is kick butt. I am in good shape, but I was having difficulties getting through. That's why I am doing the hybrid, to get the best of both worlds.

I am waiting for mine to get delivered. Should be here before Friday but I am not sure if I will start it right away since I am ubber excited or wait until Monday. Hmmmmm decisions decisions

Today I completed the Core Rhythms full workout dvd. Core Rhythms is a latin dance exercise program that uses the Salsa, Samba and Merengue styles to help you burn away those calories. I haven't completed this dvd in a very long time and it was a nice change.


I'm hoping my copy of Turbo Fire will be here by the end of the week.

Okay so I just received Turbo Fire in the mail and I am ubber excited. But I have a question for the people who have already done it before, should I do the 5 day inferno plan or just jump right into the schedule it came with?

I haven't done the whole round yet, but I am currently doing the Inferno plan. I have lost 3.6 pounds in 3 days doing it.

Thats AMAZING! I might have to do the inferno plan first! My problem is I cant follow the diet strictly. I know you said you werent following it directly, what substitutions have you made?

Good afternoon everyone! Today is my Friday since our furlough day at work is scheduled for tomorrow and we have Monday off due to the holiday, so, WOO HOO, WOO HOO, long weekend. This will be a quick post because I have a headache and need to chill out for a bit. Today I completed the Burn It Off dvd from the Chalean Extreme program.


My copy of Turbo Fire arrived a couple of days ago so I've spent the last few days watching a view workouts and reviewing the literature and plan to get started w/the Turbo Fire/Chalean Extreme hybrid on Monday.

abbiez

Hey everyone, quick question - did you use the formula in the TurboFire material to calculate your daily calorie goal?

RunHardBeStrong

I did and it came out to be about the same numbers I'm already using and having luck with so I think it's pretty accurate.

I completed some type of exercise EVERYDAY in 2010 except January 3. So, if I complete a workout from now until January 4, 2011 I will have done some type of exercise everyday for an entire year. This was a goal I wanted to attain and I'm proud of myself for doing it but I can't lie I'm looking forward to having a day that does not involve 2 mile walks, yoga, stretching, jogging, ellipticals, spinning bikes or workout dvds.

Today I completed the Recharge dvd from the Chalean Extreme program and walked 30 minutes in my neighborhood while running some errands. I had to get my emission certificate for my car so I can get my 2011 registration/tags and decided to use this time to get some walking in. I walked to the post office to mail letters, then to the grocery store to pick up a few items, then to a local pharmacy and finally back to the shop to pick up my car. Everything was spread out enough that I totalled over 2 miles.

Hi All! I'm back from vacation and looking forward to starting my new Insanity/Turbo Fire hybrid for the month of January. I'm so excited that so many of you are starting Turbo Fire. You are going to love it and the results I know you'll get.

Hope you all had a very Happy New Year. 2011 is going to be GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've decided I'm going to start off with the TF prep schedule jsut because I got sooo tired when i tried Fire 30 the other day. I think itll be best for me Did anyone do the prep schedule before they did their first full round of tf?

coachreyes

I just completed the Prep Program and started the full TF program on December 30. I thought I needed to do the prep program to get started also. I really enjoyed and ready for the next 12 weeks. It took me a few times to get the moves down (although TF 45 is my most difficult) but once you get them down it's really enjoyable. Believe me, I know how frustrating it is too fall out of step. Stay with and Good luck.

Hi everyone. Tomorrow I start the 5 Day inferno plan and then next Monday will be the start of week 1. I am sooooooo excited. I bought most of the food I need to stick to the diet, I will have to make a few substitutions but I think it will work out for me in the end. Well good luck to everyone who is starting soon and to those who have already started.

I would say to go ahead and try one of the dvds first and then make a decision. I had tried fire 30 with the new to class option and had to pause several times to get some water and pace around my basement for a quick minute just cause i felt so out of shape. that made me decide to start off with the prep schedule.

Good afternoon everyone! Tomorrow I start the Turbo Fire/Chalean Extreme hybrid so I spent today completing 30 minutes of Denise Austin's Yoga Burn dvd and 30 minutes of the P90X dvd to loosen the muscles.

Oh my, I'm so sorry. I miss read the original post. I didn't look at the date of the post. And assumed the post was for today. When read the thread again, I finally realized you made the original post in December.

Please ignore what I said. I assumed, there was going to be a Turbo Fire Challenge.

Monisfit4life

Yes I love TurboFire. I am starting a second round as well. I lost about 15 pounds during my first round and now I want to lose more. Good luck to all of you. Its an awesome program.

I did the inferno plan before. I am a picky eater so I made substitutions that were in the same food group of whatever she said and I tracked my calories to make sure it was as close as possible. I lost 6 pounds in 5 days with the 5 day Inferno it definitely works!!!
