Hello

I am planning on starting ChaLean Extreme tomorrow Friday the 10th of February! I had it for a while but only had bands and didn't like it with the bands. I now have weights so I will start tomorrow! I will probably have to buy heavier weights for the push phase though.

I am very excited to start and would love to have company doing it!

So if anyone is planning on starting soon or has started recently maybe you fancy joining and go through it together!

Daisy!

    So it seems no one wants to join me :sad:

    I started today and just finished Burn 1. I really enjoyed it! My arms are so weak right now! I love it how you focus on yourself and lift the weights slowly! So far I am loving it!

    Day 3 done!
    Today it was Burn 2! I really enjoyed it. I have to say I really love the program so far. I really feel my body is working out hard but I don't feel as knackered as I do after workouts with cardio in it such as Jillian Michaels (love Jillian though)!

    I was slightly hungover today but could still do it as it is not jumping around like mad.

    I am very excited about this journey and what it will bring.

    I am obviously still on my own here but I will keep posting as maybe someone might join and I enjoy doing it.

    Started today!! Doing the hybrid of Turbo Fire and CE and can't wait for my results! Did a full round of Turbo Fire first and lost 41 lbs so I know I will get even more results!

    I'll join you, I just started -- I'm not following the program to the T though, I'm just focusing on the strength, which I plan to do Tues/Thurs/Sun. Most likely will get my cardio workouts via elliptical, etc. Feel free to friend me

    I ordered mine last week, just waiting for it to get here. In the meantime, I'm on day 5 of 30 day shred. I'll complete that then start the Chalean Extreme. I only have weights up to 15 pounds though - am I going to have to buy heavier ones?

    Yes I guess you will have to buy heavier weights. I am only in my first week so probably not best for advise but I am sure you will. Mine are kilos and I am not home so not quite sure whyat I have. I will update later.

    I am seriously loving Push. I USED to be a cardio junkie, but as I have gotten older, it seems to be harder on my joints....<insert sad face here> I am using Xmark adjustable weights. I really like them. Ordered from Amazon.

    Today's CLX was:

    Burn Intervals

    48 min
    414 cals

    Burn 3 done! I really liked this one. First of all it works the legs a lot and also it was so quick! I think I do need heavier weights pretty soon though. My heaviest is 10lbs and I think next week I might be able to go heavier than that. I will have to have a look around!

    One more day and week 1 is completed :smile:

    I just checked mine earlier and my heaviest are about 10lbs. I can feel now that I need heavier once though. But I guess 15lbs is good to start with. You will work it out really quickly what you need. :smile:

    If you have a pair of weighted gloves or wrist weights, that will bring a bit more to the table.

    Today was:

    CLX Push 2 & 10 min elliptical resistance 10

    min - 51
    cals - 413

    So today was official the last day of my first week! Yayy! It went by so quickly and I loved it! She definitely finishes on a high! I feel brilliant after the workout. It was Burn it off & Recharge! I think Burn it off is good fun and quick and Recharge is just great to relax (even though painful in places :wink: )

    I was actually thinking of buying weighted gloves but I think I would prefer actual weights....
