Turbo Fire or Chalean Extreme which one or both??

I haven't done Chalean but I love love love Turbo Fire! Due to some outside issues I only completely the 9 week prep and not the actual program (yet, hopefully will start again in March) but I've tried all the workouts included at least once and didn't find them too terribly complicated. The new version comes with the Fire Starter disc and the first basic workout you do contains most of the main moves. Once you do that a few times I found it pretty easy to follow the other workouts. If you do struggle there is a new to class option, but I never had to use it. I only lost 5 lbs doing the prep, but I lost 2 inches off my waist and 2 off my hips (plus a few combined off my arms and legs). It definitely works you.

I LOVE Turbo Fire. I don't find the moves hard to pick up at all. It is so much fun! I have not tried CLX yet, but when I am done w/ the Turbo Fire class schedule I am going to do the hybrid of the 2 programs.

I've completed both programs. Followed them to a T & ate healthy & mostly clean. Cheating wasn't even in my vocab back then. You could probably google the schedules. They're not two hours a day tho.
Turbo fire is not hard if you catch on quickly. You can use the new to class option where she breaks down the moves for you before each set change. It is tough & will wear you out. It's mostly cardio, with 2 resistance training workouts & 1 core workout. (unless you get the advanced which I didn't). The resistance training & core workout uses tubing, which I didn't really like those myself and and during the last month of the program, I had gotten Chalean Extreme & I doubled up everyday the last 3 weeks. I would do a circuit with a HITT workout. And do ab workouts with the Fires.
My results:
Before TF
Chest: 36
Waist: 31
Hips: 39.5
R mid thigh: 18
L mid thigh: 18
R upper arm: 13
L upper arm: 13
weight: 142.4

After TF
Chest: 35
Waist: 29
Belly: 36.5
Hips: 37.5
R mid thigh: 17 3/8
L mid thigh: 17 3/8
Upper thigh: 21
R upper arm: 12
L upper arm: 12
Weight: 134.8


Turbo fire made me step up a level in fitness I feel. It's also when I started seeing biceps forming & allowed me to be able to do a push up on my knees.

So I did Chalean Extreme after. It;s a decent program. I LOVE CHalene Johnson, so I cant say anything bad about her. But I wanted to build strength, which this program did not help me with at all. During the first month, the burn phase, I lost inches somewhere on my body every single week. I was able to do a push up on my toes after completing the program though. And my legs really started to show definition with this program.

With all tht said, they're both good programs. And you're a woman. You're not going to bulk up accidentally no matter what you do. You have to really try & be intentional to bulk up.
With CE, you need weights unless you want to use tubing which should come with it. I got the deluxe version with all the extra workouts, so I'm not sure how many bands come with the regular version.
Message me if you have any more questions.

Chalene extreme is easy to follow i have had this program for a few months now too slow and not enough jumping around ( weights or resistance bands are involved with this one)
I have just puchased turbo fire and it looks more like my thing:)

Um...WOW! Great results!

I've been doing Chalean and I absolutely love it!!
Now I've looked at Turbo Fire and I actually have it but yet to try it. But I have no balance what so ever and I can't really "move" gracefully so until I get a little better in that aspect I think I'm going to wait on Turbo fire but I've heard alot of good things about!!
