    Hey everyone- I'm starting tomorrow for my first round. I'm excited! I'll be keeping up with my running (usually 25k a week) 3x a week so I think I'll just do the 3 strength workouts on the other days with one rest day.

    I am hoping to receive chalean extreme today and after reading all your posts I'm really excited to get started. I keep reading that Chalene recommends lifting "heavy" - what does that mean in terms of weights? I have 8 and 10 lb. dumbbells-will that be good to start with or should I plan on picking up heavier ones? Thanks for any info you can send my way!!

    I think that is fine to start, I'm currently using 5 and 8lbs and will be moving up to 10lbs next week. :-)

    Hi everybody. Hope you don't mind if I jump in. I started CE on Saturday and have completed Burn 1 & 2. Today is my rest day. I am committed to completing the 3 months of workouts, just in time for Summer!! I have never completed the entire program. I used 5lbs for warm ups (light), 10lbs for biceps and 12lbs & 15lbs for lower body and back. I can't wait to hear all about other's results from using CE. If you have any tips or results, please share! It's very motivating to those of us just starting out!

    I did ChaLEAN Extreme last Spring and absolutely loved it! I have results posted on my facebook page if you want to see my pictures. (Way easier than posting pictures here)

    I did day one- burn circuit 1 today. I only burned 140 calories. Am I really only supposed to do this video today? It's going to be hard to get used to.

    I'm done Week 2!!! I'll be taking measurements on Thursday. I know I've lost but I can't wait to see how much.

    Tomorrow is Burn Circuit 1 ;)

    I am finding it really hard to fit the workouts in. Have to do burn Circuits 1 and 2 on Thursday as am going to the theatre tonight. Oh dear.

    Just finished Burn Intervals and Ab burner with 305 calories burned. I am so happy that there is a timer on the bottom of the screen. Just when I think I've had enough, I realize I'm almost done and push on through!!

    Hey ladies... I just ordered CLX, and have a question before I start (please forgive me if I'm asking something that's already been asked)... I have dumbells at home; a set of 5, 8, 10, and 12 lbs. Will that be good to start off with? Thanks!

    Just finished burn circuit 1 - burned 181 calories so I spent 30 minutes on the treadmill to give myself a bigger calorie burn. I am definitely going to have to pick up some 15 lb. dumbbells for some of the moves.
