I've been doing Turbo Jam for the better part of 2 months. I'm so addicted. It's fun, it's high energy and I feel so great when I get done doing it.

If you haven't tried it, you should. I'm getting amazing results and am actually seeing muscle definition. I started doing it when I weighed 212lbs and I've lost 30 so far.

I'm LOVING it!!!!

    It's a dvd series. The initial program is 12 weeks long and then there is an advanced series that adds another 8 weeks of new workouts to the program. It's so much fun and I finish every one a big sweaty pile of goo (pretty image huh)! Great music, great instructor (Chalene Johnson)...I highly recommend it!!!

    In the first 3 months I lost 12 lbs.

    I only have cardio party mix 1 right now but just ordered mix 3 and punch, kick, jam today.
    I have to admit at first I was not a fan but after I got the moves down I LOVE IT!!!
    I have been doing it for about 3 months now and have lost about 25lbs since starting it.

    They offer Turbo Kick classes at my gym, based on turbo jam. I am actually just joining so I haven't done it, but I'd like to work up the nerve to not feel self conscious and just do it! Maybe I'll google some videos tonight.

    Im hooked I love it too. I bought brazilian Bottom, but I don't like the Instructor, so i think I will go back to Turbo again. Are the Instructors in Yoga Booty Ballet and slim in 6 as fun as Charleen? i think it is the Instructor that makes all the difference...

    I enjoyed TJ, but admit that Fire is sooo much fun, for me at least. Higher intensity which I love, too!

    I agree, it definitely is the instructor's.

    I lost 40 lbs using Turbo Jam, became a Turbo Kick instructor and lost another 20.

    I'm an Addict and proud of it :)

    Turbo Jam is a great workout video, my daughter did that video at least twice a day before going to something else.

    I also did Turbo Jam (20 minute version) as one of my daily workouts.

    I stopped doing the workout, due to doing a lot of workouts that Exercise TV now presents.

    But I do plan to go back to Turbo Jam soon.

    You are right it is a great workout and you have fun doing it.

    This is what I wanted to hear. Once I'm done with Insanity, I'm going to move on to Turbo Jam. So glad to hear that you had great results. I love cardio workouts.
