    I am doing Zumba at the local YMCA 3-4x a week for cardio.
    For weight training, I have been doing the Chalean Extreme videos, so lifting 3x a week...and I lift heavy (or at least heavy for me...lifting to failure).
    I finish the Chalean schedule this week, and I am thinking about P90X!?!


    As far as calories...(my food diary is open) I've been following the Olivia method, which means that I actually set my calories to maintenance, then only eat right around my BMR everyday (for me is about 1420). This makes the deficit shown at the end of the day the actual # of calories you shorted yourself...at the end of the week 3500cal should equal a pound. I try to keep my deficit between 500-1000 a day--some days it is less, but It should never be more than 1000.
    So I guess I usually eat back some of the exercise calories, but not all of them. But I ALWAYS eat more than the recommended 1200 cals.
    Also, I am breastfeeding, so I get to add 300calories a day just for that!! I actually eat between 1700-1900 calories on most days (regardless of exercise)

    Would you recommend the Chalean extreme for a beginner that has never lifted?

    Your progress is amazing.

    Your progress is amazing.

    I think you can do Chalean even if you've never lifted---you use lower weights, don't go as deep, etc..., but there are other programs that would be good too. On bodybuilding.com there are some free ones, that way you wouldn't have to invest until you knew you were going to like it or stick with it.
