  • I love everything Turbo. Lost over 80 lbs with Turbo jam. Then moved onto TurboFire, then got certified as a Turbo Kick Instructor because I love em so much. lol I have recently been turned onto Les Mills: PUMP and it is my second love next to Turbo.

    #1 Insanity!
    #2 Turbofire's Hiit/cardio only.
    distant third: p90x's phase 1 upperbody dvds only.

    OP: you might want to start with Chalene Johnson's Chalene Extreme. It's got weights and cardio, not a huge time commitment, and I do think she's really good as an instructor. Unfortunately I'm a bit beyond CLX, but if I were to start again as a newbie I'd start there.

    After Insanity I am going to to an Insanity-Asylum/P90X hybrid to get the best of both worlds

    If you are looking for something fun you would really enjoy Turbo Jam. I just started Turbo Fire and it is crazy fast paced stuff but I am enjoying it. Turbo Jam will work you out, it has great music and you will love Chalene Johnson. Starting with it will prepare you to dive into some tougher stuff down the road. I think if you start something too difficult, you may get discouraged and give up. I know too many people that went right into purchasing P90X and Insanity and gave up after only a few days because it was too over the top for their fitness level. I think people tend to watch those infromercials and think that they can get the DVD's in, push play and perform at the level of those in the infromercial and then they get discouraged or disgusted with themselves because they can't.

    Just an update on things. I am now about 167 and have been doing TJ for a while. I just got TF last week and I love it and can't wait to see my results.

    I have previously done 17 weeks of TurboFire and had started Insanity then tore my ACL (thanks Shaun T) LOL. I'm all recovered now after 5 months of PT and started a hybrid of TurboFire and Insanity two weeks ago and I love it! It's the best of both worlds and I'm typically burning 400-700 calories per workout! I actually think I like Insanity better because it's so hard and I'm dripping sweat after the warm up! LOL. Good luck!

    You will be able to keep up. I have turbo fire and doing the prep schedule. The prep schedule is 9 weeks. Also each class has a new to class option which shows you the moves. Hope this helps.
