    I want to start CLX again in August - it will be my 3rd attempt.

    I finshed my 1st round this time last year, had a break and then started again in November, but had to stop because of an inflamed gallbladder.

    i like to start CLX at the beginning of the week, so will be starting next Monday.

    I am on week 2! I'm using half marathon training for my cardio. I've run several of those, but I've never combined it with strength training. I'm excited to see how CLX might help improve my running!

    I just did my first Chalean Extreme workout today! I am going on vacation in 2 weeks so I'm worried that I wont be able to follow through on the workouts while I'm gone but I'm going to give it a shot for at least the rest of this week and all of next and see how it goes!
    What are you using for weights? Are you buying individually or did you pick up something like SelectTech that she uses?

    You don't have to get selectechs. just google "adjustable weights" and many will pop up. New can be expensive so also try ebay local and craigslist.

    some people love bands, that was not my preference- but they do travel well!

    NewHabit: when will your discs arrive? how soon after that and how long is your vacation? You could start the Burn Circuit before leaving and then continue upon return OR restart. I would hate to tell you to wait and then you come back and not have the motivation to start.

    Nueva- Have you started yet?

    newhabit - I'm in a similar situation. I'm starting and then going on vacation and seeing what I want to do then. If anything, I'll just start at the beginning again and already have an idea of what I'm in for :p

    Pips- Thanks for the suggestion!

    Did you order them from Beach Body or from another website? I know when I ordered from Beach Body it took a while for them to arrive. There is processing time and shipping time.

    The second disks I ordered from them I spent the extra $7 for 'regular' FedEx and they arrived much faster.

    Sorry you are frustrated.

    Maybe you can find the workouts on youtube while you wait.
