    How much heavier did you need for push?

    I'm doing Turbo Jam right now and running 2-3 days a week. I have both CLX and TF and I think I'm going to jump in with both feet and start the hybrid schedule on the 9th or so when I get back from vacation.

    For those of you that have done CLX and Turbo Fire - Is this a good idea? Or should I stick with one or the other (TF or CLX) and then combine them later?

    anyone ?

    Hey girl...I did one round...some of my progress pics are in my profile. Am planning on doing Round #2 when I'm done P90X in a few weeks. LOOOOOOVE chaLEAN Extreme!
  • Since I am training for a marathon that is in 23 days.. I have decided to do phase one for 2 more weeks. Then I will have to take two weeks off to rest before race and then recover!

    HOW is everyone else doing?

    I am a BEACHBODY coach so let me know if you have any questions!

    I am on my second Week of Burn!! I found my set on Amazon.com for only $50 and I thought that was great. It didn't come with the band or callipers though, but I didn't care.
    I just upgraded and got some adjustable dumbbells that go up to 40 pounds...so this should keep me busy until the new year! Next on my wish list is Turbo Fire.
    This all started when I found Turbo Jam dvds at a thrift shop for $3 each...
    If anyone wants to "Friend Me" feel free to!

    I am using 29 pounds on some exercises like squats, and am only in week 2 and thinking I might be able to go heavier by week 4 but we will see.

    I'm starting Week 3 (Burn) today and I've already noticed that it isn't so hard to do lunges and pushups anymore.

    Hi everyone! I just started October 1st with ChaLean Extreme. I hope to have good results. I only have about 10 lbs to lose; however, being realistic, if the inches come off I am ok with weight where ever it needs to be. I do have a question, why do so many people choose to do a "hybrid" with CLX? Does the program alone not give the results?

    How much weight do you all use for the different exercises? I go from 3 lbs (warm up weight) to 10 lbs. I have 12 lb dumbells, but I'm not quite ready for those yet.

    You should be fine doing this alone! I would maybe add in some cardio training too. I think a lot of people like doing a hybrid because it keeps them changing things up. I did the program with a hybrid with turbo fire but I honestly think you will get the results without doing it! Lift heavy, eat right and it should workout like it should!!!!

    Everyone ability is different. I go all the way up to 30 pounds but I been lifting for years. Just do what YOU can do remember to push yourself! You will see results faster if you do that! :) Good Luck girl!

    Burn intervals is probably one of my favorite workout that is on the series! Does anyone else like Burn Intervals? I know can listen to my IPOD and do the workout since I have been doing it so long! :) Happy lifting

    Not sure - I do the weights part of it but am training for a race so I substitute the cardio CD's with my running...Halfway into the Push circuit, and planning on repeating the full program once running season is over - but then include the cardio workouts twice a week instead of running 3-4 times a week with the weight part.....

    Absolutely up to you - work your way up safely and slowly.....

    I do warm-up with 10lbs and the deadlifts and squats with 2x40lbs or 35lbs....(in the push circuit) Upper body is up to 15-25lbs....But I've been lifting (as heavy as I can:laugh: ) for over six months now....
    I do find that I started with lighter weights than I was used too, simply because she does it extremely SLOW and with emphasis on form...which is good!
