      I do Turbojam every Wednesday and I really enjoy it. I am contemplating buying Turbo Fire - the 12 week program, but am still thinking about it. Good luck, you will like it.

      Turbo Jam is awesome. I lost about 35 pounds using it and eating well. Friends of mine have said ... you are like a freaking infomerical ... you look great. I love it. I do shake it up but always come back to that for a fun workout.


      Ps. Don't use the weighted gloves for about a month. It will give you a boost then.

      Thanks for that info, because I was super excited to try them. I will wait. :smile:

      I did Turno Jam this morning. I actually got weighted gloves at target and use those. I have had turbo for years and want to upgrade. Maybe I will try Turbo Fire!! Has anyone done it yet?

      Basically since I've been trying to lose weight so about the whole year lol...I had some off months :( So I've been exercise fully for about 3 to 5 months I think, I got the step up for Turbo Jam which is Turbo Kick, and then I purchased Turbo fire for when I am truly really. :)

      All of them are so fun! Chalene is awesome!

      Hey! Just wanted to pop in and say I really like Turbo Jam! I just switched over to it from P90X. I wanted to mix it up a little and get some more cardio.

      how do you find P90X? I am slowly working my way up to it. I really want to do it but I do want to drop a few more pounds before! And I think I might try Chalean Extreme first. Have you ever tried it?

      I am hoping so much that Iwill get my TUrbo Jam DvD's today! I cannot wait!

      Hi Alli
      How are you doing it....are you doing the 10 days kick start or the 4 weeks?

      I haven't got the DVD yet (but hopefully today) and I am not sure yet....

      Hey Daisy, I'm doing the 4 weeks, though just shifting the days since I started on a Wed instead of Monday.

      Btw, I love your Marilyn Monroe pic :smile:
    • Posts: 755 Member
      he he thanks...I love her :smile:

      I think I might do that too...even though at the moment I am not working so I would actually have the time for the 10 day kickstart...
      I can't wait to star either way as I have only read great things about it. What I just like is that people seem to see great results but that it also seems enjoyable! Couldn't be better really :smile:
    • Posts: 865 Member
      lol I share the Monroe love :wink:

      Yeah I had seen it on TV before and it looked fun, and after reading good things about it on here I figured what the heck! So far I love it and actually look forward to the next workout.

      I am doing the 4 weeks as well. It is not that bad as far as feeling like I am going to die. I did the 30 day shred before this, and would not let anyone talk to me while I was exercising. haha, with TJ I am laughing, dancing around, and loving it. But I can tell it is definitely working because I felt a burn in my mid section I have never felt before. Even the obliques, and my back. So looking forward to no more love handles. lol!

      Hi Everybody -
      I love TJ and am going to start Turbo Fire in Sept ... i think, Count me in for TJ!!! I love it!!!
      Hey .... Target has weighted gloves???? That's good to hear; i'll check it out.

      I will check in on this thread too - also doing Shred :wink:

      Looking forward to the journey with you all and getting to know you better,

      Is there a TJ schedule??

      If so please point me in the right direction :flowerforyou:

      Hurray my TJ arrived today and i wasted no time and tried it. and i have to say i really enjoyed it.
      I think I still need some time to master all the moves but hopefully I will get there. Especially the Twist if I remember the name right is tricky for me but hopefully after a while it will get automatic!
      I actually look forward to doing it again tomorrow! And trying to get better.
      In the beginning it did feel like the position you have to take is straining my knees but it got better during the workout as I tried to alter it slightly.
      I definitely have to sort out the spare room though to exercise in there. There is not really the space in room. I live in London and the afordable rented rooms are not massive. But luckily we have a spare room and my flatmates don't mind me turning it in my own little exercise room :smile:

      And Hi Janet! Nice to meet you here again! I haven't read or heard much about Turbo Fire. It is a more advanced version isn't it?

      And also hello Deedun. As I live in the UK I didn't have the schedule either but I found it on the internet. I'll email pm you...

      So everyone happy Turbo jamming :smile:

      When I ordered my TJ package from their website it came with a 1 month "schedule" for both beginners and advanced. I think as long as you workout you'll be fine. It's more of a guiding tool I guess esp for beginners. For example the first week it tells you to do Learn and Burn for 2 days, then the 20 min workout for the next 2, then 3 days of rest before starting the next week.

      I have been taking the Turbo kick classes at 24 hour and I LOVE them! I bought the TJ dvd's so I can do it at home too. I hope it is just as fun! I can't wait for it to get here! I plan on getting my certification to teach this class : )

      Hi Janet, I finished the 30 day shred last week, and it prepared me for this. The 30 day shred was pretty tough for me, but all that working out must have helped because I do not get out of breath doing Turbo Jam, those jumping jacks and jump really helped. I thought about doing Turbo Fire after doing TJ!

      I bought mine 4 years ago from Craigs List for $15 and love it to this day (its like $75 on the infomercial including shipping, I bought my gloves separately for $15).

      It really helps you tone your upper body, I love it and have been doing it for 5-6 days a week for 4 years. I haven’t lost weight on it because I'm a healthy weight (5'8, 136lb) but I know it helped with my body fat percentage, I am currently 20% bf which is fitness level and I dont have to watch what I eat when I work out consistently, it fogives me of my "too many bowls of cereal sin days" ;)
