    Yay, another newbie!

    This morning I did Burn It Off! followed by Recharge. I tried to do as much of the plyometrics as possible, but I did have to modify some. The Recharge was nice, though I probably could have used more seated positions due to how wiped out I was by Burn It Off!

    Today I did burn circuit 3 and used heavier weights than I have so far. Ouch! I definitely reached failure!

    After that I did Fat burn challenge, just for fun.

    Total of 322 calories burned.

    Today is my "off" day, according to the schedule... Do any of you take the day off, or do you do some other form of exercise? Just curious...

    Isys: I don't think Lean 3 is TOO easy. It is easier for me to get through than 1 & 2, but since I do mine at the end of the week, I kind of like that it's a little less intense. It feels like a working break (if that makes any sense at all). I have 2 weeks left to finish the Lean Circuit and then starting over with Burn right away. I like that I don't feel like I'm going to keel over at the end of Lean 3. It makes me feel like I got stronger by the end of the week:laugh:

    Yesterday was walking 30 min & Burn Intervals for a total of 700 calories. Today is a rest day, but I will probably do Recharge a little later after doing some light yard work. Tomorrow is Lean 1/Week 3!

    Welcome to the group LPQ22 & Pickles11! Happy Sunday everyone!

    do you think Lean 3 is too easy?

    I wouldn't say it's easier just different. The more leg work the higher my heart rate the more calories I burn. I like to burn at least 350 cal when I work out but despite my best efforts (time restraints) it didn't happen.

    LP - I usually take at least 1 full rest day a week where I don't do any structured exercise. I don't count cleaning or shopping as exercise and that is what I normally do on the weekend.

    Welcome to the forum. The more the merrier.

    Thank you :) No, I don't count chores, etc as exercise, either, even though they do burn cals.

    Doing BC2 today!

    CLX Burn 2, week one... Loved the workout! My muscles were shaking, I was sweating, and it felt SO good!

    I gotta say that those "bowler's lunges" are wicked!! I only hit ten reps on those, but I love the area that the exercise targets.. much needed! LOL

    238 cals burned :)

    Happy Monday!

    I usually take one off day and the other I do Yoga or a stretching dvd.

    I don't burn as much, but I love all the planks and the army crawl. * I know I'm weird * ha! ha!

    Just finished CLX Burn 2 and Ab Burner. My arms are so sore, probably because they are so weak. I can really see a difference in my strength from week 1 to 2. My goal is to get off my knees when doing push-ups!
