I absolutley love this set of workout!!! I can't do much jumping etc but most of the exercises she has are usually better for the knees than most of the videos I have seen. Like when she does her sumo squat burpee she turns her toes out so it's lighter on the knees instead of the regular way. I love the lifting all of it.

I am on week one. But I have had it for a few months and I didn't get past week 1. I have completed a full week but I am starting over and I really love it. I just did the cardio intervals and abs last night!! My whole back is sore. I have noticed though I don't feel like my legs get a great workout. Do you?0 -
I will be finishing this next week! Love it! I have lost 17 lbs. I don't know how many inches yet because I won't measure until Wednesday. This workout changed my life. First program I have ever been able to stick with!0

'I Luvit I Luvit I Luvit' tooo!
I love Chalene, her workouts (and her motivational stuff.. and her book PUSH!!!)
and she makes me LAUGH! .. I like to pretend she is my mentor.. haha :blushing:0 -
I am starting my 3rd round on Monday! Can't wait to get back into this workout. I have had results from this program like I never have with any other workout. I have been doing various other things for the past year and had dismal results. So it is time to go back to the one thing that I know works for me. Good luck to all of you!

I am anxiously awaiting TurboFire to come and thinking of incorporating chalean extreme here in a few weeks for the muscle tone.0

I love CLX. I did it earlier this year. It helped me lose the last few lbs and reach my goal! I'm almost at the end of P90X. After I finish and going alternate each month between the two program's. Chalene is amazing. She really keeps you motivated0

You are constantly squatting and lunging in CLX your legs are getting an amazing workout, I am in the PUSH phase and my booty is hard as a rock and i finally am seeing my legs take shape.... if you counted how many times you squated and lunged while lifting, you would surprise yourself!0 -

I was used to doing like the high stepper for my lower body with heavy weights. This one for me isn't as tough for my legs.0 -
i am going to do my last burn circuit today and will start push on monday. Loving this one! I am anxious to do the measurements tomorrow and see what kind of results I am getting. I have completed two rounds of turbofire and wanted to incorporate some lifting. I just LOVE Chalene!!!0

I just finished my second round. Love CE- so much fun and love the muscle definition and feel stronger. It's also helped improve my cardio for running. Definitely recommend it also.0

I am inquisitive about Chalean extreme. I have used some turbo jam dvds from the library and love it! And from what I have read around, seems like CLX is good for strength and toning.
Can I do this dvd workout with just resistance bands of varying intensity? I will be traveling a lot so at the moment dumbbells are not the best choice for me. So I am looking for resistance bands based workouts.0 -

I did this workout three years ago when it came out. I don't think you can use resistance bands; at least Chalene doesn't show that as an option, if I recall correctly. She emphasizes lifting as heavy as you possibly can, and I don't think you'll find bands that will provide enough resistance.
That's just my recollection. But I'll let others who have done it more recently chime in.0 -

YES! Chalene has someone in the videos who only uses resistance bands. It is great for strength and toning.0 -

I always take my videos and bands with me when i travel. I can either do it in my hotel room or in the room I am staying at at families houses. I now take two bands because my friend wanted to join me after watching the video. : )0 -
I agree!! Chalene is amazing!! I've been doing Turbofire for almost 6 weeks and have already lost 16 lbs and nearly 18 inches total. She is so inspiring!! I became part of a facebook support group and it helped me so much!! I think I am going to try CLX next!0

I feel like they do as long as I focus on lifting from my heals.0 -
