    Hip Hop Abs for cardio today followed by almost 3 hrs of yard work, so I basically burned my entire day's worth of calories. Lean 1 Week 2 starts tomorrow.

    kel does your HRM calculate the calories for you or do you use an online calculator? I use an online one, http://braydenwm.com/calburn.htm which I am guessing gives rough estimate :)

    My HRM does the calculations. I entered my age, weight, etc for a customized experience..lol.

    First day of lean today....love it!

    CLX Lean 1 - 352 calories burned!

    Lean 1/Week 2--434 calories burned & I didn't have to sit out any of the exercises! I'm not quite ready for calf raises yet, but I'm working on it. Tomorrow Chalean Burn It Off (I haven't tried this one yet because I've been too chicken.)

    Lean 2/Week 2 today: did workout plus 20 min stretch after for total 515 calories. This week was SO MUCH better than last week! I didn't have to skip any of the exercises and got through all of the extremes. I only had to sit down on one extreme so I didn't pass out :tongue: Tomorrow I'm going to do Recharge for the first time :happy:

    Happy Wednesday everyone! Keep up the great work!:glasses:

    Today was day 2 for me- I did Burn 2. I like this one because I dont have to change my weights as often as Burn 1 (it takes a few seconds). I burned 200 calories, which I'm still weary about because I didn't work up THAT much of a sweat, so I don't know if I should eat all those back.

    I hope it's OK if I hop in! I also did Burn 2 and it's my second day of the program. Not sure how many calories I burned-- I don't have a heart rate monitor. But I definitely worked up a sweat and I feel all jellyish now.

    I'm enjoying this program so far. Chalene is very motivating!

    I did Burn Intervals. Wowza! I tried to do Ab Burner afterwards but I just ran out of gas about 5 minutes in. Next week, I'll do more!

    I just finished Week 1 of Lean too. Lean 3 seemed to be the easiest of the set for me. I didn't have to sit out on any of the exercises to recover, and I went a little bit heavier on the chest exercises. HRM-385 calories.

    I totally agree.

    CLX Lean 3 plus 10 minutes treadmill. Totally lame on that calorie count. 311 cals burned - (I ate more than that for breakfast)
