Join me! Turbo Fire/Chalean Extreme hybrid starts today!!!

hey everyone! so i had my friend's party at the restaurant on sunday, and made sure to have 2 helpings of salad, though it was kinda drenched in balsamic dressing..and no pasta! i resisted and had some sausage and chicken. granted the chicken was breaded, but not fried. no workout on sunday either, so i was fearing the weigh-in this morning.. was super surprised to see it stayed down!! today i did Fire 45 for the first time, and loved this one just for the combo where you brush your shoulders off and move your heels first then bring your knees up. love the dance aspect of it, and of course the music is great! it's gonna be HIIT 25 tomorrow, and possibly some abs, we'll see. hope everyone had a great weekend!

swinnie - that's a real pat on the back to be asked to speak on weight loss!! Now you know that you've done a great job and it's been clearly noticed!! That physician clearly has great respect for all of your hard work! Congratulations and I know you'll do great! Can I ask what you typically pack for lunches and snacks? I'm always on the lookout for great ideas, if you'd like to share! (If not, no worries!) Be sure to let us know how your speech goes!! - Michelle

After much convincing :noway: of myself I got my Turbo Fire 55 EZ and Stretch 10 done! I also did Ab Jam and walked for an hour. My biceps are really sore from Push 1 yesterday. Its been a while since I did the Push Circuit but I gotta tell you I like the pain. makes me feel like I worked hard. :happy:

I didn't think it would be possible, but Tone 30 is harder than Sculpt 30!!! And both were harder than Push in CLX! WOW! My arms are in painnnnnn after that one, I was failing by 12 reps after every exercise. I will definitely have guns when I"m done with this program! I'm not a huge fan of HIIT 25 tho, for some reason my coordination was lacking today or something. I prefer HIIT 20. I'm sure my neighbors below me prefer HIIT 20 as well... haha. Lots of plyo in HIIT 25! Still got a great working.

And as of today, I'm a Team Beachbody Coach! I've got my Shakeology coming in the mail, I'm quite excited.

I just wasn't feeling it today. I did manage to walk briskly on the treadmil incline 4 and speed 4.5 for an hour and then did Xtreme Abs. I wanted to do fire 45ez but just never got around to it and I really don't feel like it today. For some reason Thursdays are really hard for me to stay motivated.

I got my Fire 45EZ in last night, I wasn't really feeling it, for some reason that workout isn't one of my favorite. I still adore Fire 45 and Fire 55EZ the most. My HRM was also acting up, it kept losing it's signal. Sometimes it does that but it kept making me stop and fiddle with it. I don't think I'll get a workout tonight. I'm all showered and my hair is straightened for my birthday date! So far I'm having a great day, and tonight should be even better!!! I can't wait to see my guy I also got my Coach getting started interview last night for Beachbody. I'm all set to go with hopefully getting things going. Hope everyone is having a great day!!

good workout today. 1 hour treadmill then Push 3, Ab Burner and then Fire 45. I feel great.

hey everyone, ugh this week i've been a bum, no logging food, didn't exercise as much as i usually don, and have been snacking more than normal.. granted it's the TOM, but also just me being lazy i guess. i worked 5 nights in a row, and if you work night shift, you'll know how tiring it can get. trying to snap myself outta the mood and get back on the wagon for the weekend.. have a good one everybody!

Hi Girls - I'm back from vacation. Started week 14 of TFso on tap this morning was TF 30 and Upper 20. BB said I burned 339 calories.

Gained 2 lbs during vacation but the evil scale said that, as of this morning, not only did I lose the 2 lbs but I also lost another 0.6 lbs on top of that! We did so much walking that I needed a vacation from my vacation just to somewhat recover! Carmel was beautiful...our hotel was about 3 blocks from the ocean so every morning we would take Cocoa and walk there and then go about an hour along Scenic Drive (which runs along the coast). We spent most afternoons walking around downtown Carmel so, needless to say, the exercise was plentiful! Happy to be home and back to my routine though....there's only so many meals I can eat out before I start missing the normalcy.

Hope you all had a great week while I was gone. Look forward to hearing about your progress!

Hello ladies! So I have to apologize first off for my lack of communication since I've started this thread! I am usually pretty good to post most of the work week since I usually have a computer at work to get on. I think with the whole five day inferno and the nerves of talking on Wednesday got the best of me, I swear I haven't been as worn out as I was last week in a really really long time! But, I do promise to keep everyone updated on how things are going from here on out.

First things first, want to say thanks to all who supported me with my talk I did on Wednesday. It was a little nerve racking, but I kept telling myself that I shouldn't be nervous and that I should be so excited that people wanted to hear my story and that I could help others. It went really well. I planned to speak for about 10 to 15 min and ended up speaking for about 30 min. People had tons of questions about my daily routine and my menu for a typical day. I made sure I took my before and after pics and some recipes to pass out that were good healthy favorites. I really enjoyed the experience and really hope to do more things similar to that in the future.

Recap of last week: did the five day inferno and have to say that I did get better results than I was expecting, but by no means as good as those in the pamplet:ohwell: . My weight went from 145.4 lbs to 142.8 lbs and I lost about 5 inches throughout the five days. The food was great and I wasn't really hungry throughout the week. The hard part was finding the energy to workout Wednesday morning (which could be due to me staying up late stressing on Tuesday night about my talk) and Thursday morning felt some pain in my back that prevented me from being able to do both workouts. Friday I had a ton of energy when I worked out weather it was due to the fact that the stress was over with or that I knew it was my last chance workout, either way, it was great!

Saturday I woke up and decided to do a long good cardio burn early so I did Fire 60.

My husband suggested that I give my body a rest day yesterday, which I think really helped me get my energy level stable and back to normal again.

This morning is my offical start to the Turbo Fire/Chalean Extreme Hybrid routine so I did the scheduled Stretch 40 and added a Fire 30 to that for a little more cardio.

Hope everyone's day is going great!

Hello to all, I'm new here, I just signed up today and the real reason is because I found that most of you are doing the hybrid and I really want to start it.. This is my 2nd round of CLX, I started it last week and I already feel the changes in my body, I ♥ it!!!

I'll tell you a lil' bit about my story so you understand why I'm here: When I was in high school I had my ideal weight but not the ideal physical condition...then I got out and gained 60lbs in 4 years due to lack of exercise and plenty of junk food because with my job and college I didn't make time for anything else, so when I realized that my health was in danger I started TJ and CLX, and I've lost 33lbs since then, that was on May 2009; now I still have 33 lbs to lose and I'm getting married on Dec 18th!!! I know, very soon!! :ohwell: and I'm really excited but i'd like to lose at least 10-15lbs in these 2 months so I'm eating a lot of healthy food and doing CLX, but I already got TF, so I was wondering first of all, if someone could tell me what the calendar for the Hybrid would be? and second, if I could get your support?

Thank u all 4 reading!:flowerforyou:

I am rougly following the hybrid. I took the TF schedule and added burn circuits the first 3 weeks and then Push the next three weeks recovery week and then lean for the next three weeks. so I do CLX circuts mon, wed & Firday. I do TF mon - saturday but not tone or sculpt until later. I also do abs 5 days a week. Monday I do Zumba Abs, Tuesday is Ab Jam, wednesday is core 20, thursday is xtreme abs and Friday is Ab Burner. So I guess i sort of created my own hybrid. this is my schedule for this week. I walk an hour a day on the treadmill too.
