Has anyone seen or started Turbo Fire? It's Chalene Johnson's new program by BeachBody. I got it last week and LOVE LOVE LOVE it. It's based on the HIIT principles. Would be interested in what others are thinking of it.

    I have it and I absolutely LOVE it! I did the 5 Day Inferno Plan and lost 3 pounds and 3 inches total and now I'm doing my own hybrid of ChaLEAN Extreme and Turbo Fire.
    You can't help but to keep moving and working out because the music is the best. You will definitely get great results if you stick with it.
    Good luck and have fun!!!

    That's great that you achieved such great results with Chalene's programs! I was just wondering why you would assume that you'd quit on yourself and not complete the program?

    I'm on day #4 of the ChaLean Extreme/Turbo Fire hybrid. I played around with some of the TF workouts last week and LOVE them. I blogged about it as well (and posted a video--SCARY!)...if you're interested, here's my blog link:

    soo when you do the Chalene Extreme and the Turbo Fire what do you log it as under your exercise here???

    I log mine in under cardio. I wear a HRM w/ chest strap so I know how many calories I am burning.

    I have a Polar HR Monitor. I wear it for my workouts then log them in MFP. I just finished 30 minutes of one of the Turbo Fire workouts (Fire 30) and burned 363 calories. This is the most fun I've had burning calories! If you like Turbo Jam, you're really going to enjoy Turbo Fire. It's taking it up a notch!

    If you'd like to look at a preview of it, you can see it thru my link at www.beachbodycoach.com/RNRMOM22.

    We can all support you (and each other) by sharing our workouts here! :)

    Yes please pick back up the program and do it for you. I was in the same situation with starting and stopping programs. And I finally stuck to my guns and lost the weight and am determined to keep pushing play to keep it off. I think that fact that I like what I see when I look in the mirror and LOVE Chalean Extreme & TurboFire is such an advantage. Its the best thing in the world when you enjoy the workout you're doing. I know you'll stick to the program this time around! We're all routing for you :)

    I have it and I absolutely love it! I find myself often doing an extra 2 or 3 workouts when I have the time because I love it so much :) It's a lot of fun, the music is great and I burn a TON of calories with it :)

    How many calories does it burn on average? I know everyone is different but it helps to hear it so I don't grossly overestimate it.

    Just got TurboFire today and did the Fire 30/Stretch 10 workout.

    IT. WAS. AMAZING!

    :)

    Easier than Insanity, harder than TurboJam. I'm fairly certain harder than TurboKick too. I was totally lost for most of it since I skipped the "New to Class" part to learn the moves. I also took several breaks to catch my breath. Even then, I burned almost 700 calories. Insane! I love it, love it, love it and yet again, Chalene Johnson makes me bring it. :)

    I average right around 100-105 calories every 10 minutes...did Fire 55EZ yesterday and burned 615 calories...did Fire 30 today and burned 357.

    I am in my final weeks of a p90x challenge and am planning to pick up Turbo Fire next. I've heard nothing but great reviews so I am really excited to start!
  • My hubby is buying it for me for my birthday in a few weeks. Can't wait to get it! Its my 40th birthday present. I'm a Turbo junkie, and I have completed P90X as well. If you guys don't have a Beachbody coach yet, let me know! I would love to be your coach!

    I've been doing the 30-day Shred DVD but you all are really making me want to try some of these other workouts! I just joined MFP today and want to get serious about getting the last 15-20lbs of baby weight off.

    I thank everyone for their feedback on Turbo Fire, I too wanted to order it because it looks SO FUN on the videos and commercials. I ended up w/ Body Gospel, it too is quite a workout! I WILL order Turbo Fire, next time!

    Hey everyone!

    @Julie Sue

    Having a coach is basically having your own personal accountability partner. Depending on your coach, they can give you insight on your weight release program, games, contest, and new up and coming programs. I am also a coach and for me being a listener and motivator is my main purpose. Making it fun is also big on my list. I find that having someone that understands your journey to a better you helps people to actually stick with it. Thats my 2 cents. I hope it helped.

    I heard about it and saw the clip but have not seen the infomercial on it yet. It looks great. I did turbo jam and stopped doing it but I am going back to do it again. I did it but did not see any results and quit. I was diagnosed last year as prediabetic. I have thyroid issues which is control again with medication and now I am starting to lose again. It is great that everyone is having results with Turbo Fire. Eventually I would get it but first I want to master turbo jam.

    Have a great evening.:blushing:
