  • I will also be doing another round of Turbo Fire starting in January...the 3rd seems like a good start date..I'm in!!!
    Right now I'm alternating between Fire 30,45 and 55 and throwing in some HIIT workouts here and there, but I want to re-start the structured plan once my life is less hectic!!!
    I'll add you:)

    I'm doing a 30 day Turbo Fire/Insanity hybrid starting Jan 3 and then will be moving on to a Turbo Fire/Chalean Extreme hybrid after that.

    I'm doing a ChaLean Extreme/Turbo Fire hybrid starting either January 3 or 6. Friend me if you want to help keep each other motivated.

    BTW, can I ask about your results from just TF? I'm on a mad plateau (for a whole freaking year!), and I need something to blow past it. I've lost 90 pounds so far, but I just can't get these last 20 pounds off.

    Hi Amy - in 19 weeks on pure TF I've lost 18 lbs (and kept them off).

    For the people doing the TF/CLX hybrid- are you following Chalene's schedule or making your own?

    I was sent another hybrid schedule, one that assumes you've already done CLX (which I have). If you're interested in it, send me a message with your email addy, and I'll forward it on.


    Sharon--I sure I see results like that too! I need to do better with my eating. Did you log your calories everyday? Also, do you eat back your exercise calories?

    Yes - I am going to do a TF/ Chalean Ex hybrid. Felt I needed more cardio combined with my strength training. BBDIVA

    I'm the opposite...need more strength training with my cardio. I may have to look into Chalean EX

    WOW!!! Great job. I only lost 4 lbs my first round but 9" overall. I'm looking to lose about 4-6 lbs this time.

    Hi Amy! I probably eat about 1/3 - 1/2 of my exercise calories but it's not a conscious effort. I don't think 1320 calories is enough for me so I try to keep my eating around 1500 on average and I strive to reach a 500 calorie daily burn...some days it's more and on some it's less. For the most part, I keep a journal Monday - Saturday but I take Sundays off. My husband and I try to go for a 45 - 60 minute walk on Sundays just to get things moving but that's the extent of my exercise. My food diary is public so feel free to check it out. You'll see I tend to eat the same couple of things each day.

    Hope that answered your questions. Good luck with your next round of TF...you know you could come kill it with me for 30 days and do my Turbo Fire/Insanity hybrid!!! I've found 2 other brave souls and am looking for more to join me starting Jan 3.

    I started this past Monday and I love it!! I had taken a Turbo Kick class which is the same thing but in a class setting which I love but it was getting expensive and couldn't justify keeping at it when I could buy Turbo Fire and have it at home for the cost of 2 mos of classes. So needless to say I took about 2 months off and never again will I do that!! I'm 2 days into Turbo Fire and sore as hell!! Even tho it's a good kinda pain I'm never letting myself get that out of shape again!! Good luck to you! I'm so anxious to see what my results are in a couple weeks!!

    I'm going to have foot surgery January 7th, will that hinder me from doing Turbo Fire?

    Only if you can't stand on your foot. The moderator shows how to do the entire routine without jumping so as long as you're able to stand you should be ok.

    Good luck with your surgery!

    That's not lame...I watched the Turbo Jam infomercial a bunch of times before I finally picked up the phone to place the order. Chalene's energy is just infectious and I wanted to be part of it. That was 5 years and 43 lbs ago and I haven't ever regretted that decision!

    I just finished CLX, and while I didn't lose any weight (thanks to crappy eating), I definitely got stronger. I have some "guns" now that I just love! LOL

    I recorded the informercial the other day. I figured that whenever I don't feel like working out, I will just watch that. That's what I did with TJ, and it helped. :smile:

    That would be great way to get you moving!! When I was doing Turbo Kick in the class setting one of the fire drills was set to Ke$ha's Tik Tok and everytime I hear it no matter where I'm at I want to start throwing punches and kicks!! So that's my motivator when I don't feel like working out I turn on that song and I'm in the mood!! LOL Glad you had great results with CLX muscles make me feel so empowered plus just plain sexy and awesome, I've been a little lazy lately and need to get back where I was and build on that. I think after the first of the year I'm going ot order CLX!!

    One more day to go to complete round 1 of the 20 week Turbo Fire schedule. Final results...18 lbs and 7.5 inches lost. This stuff works!

    Happy holidays!

    Abbie - did you order because of the TV infomercial and get the 90 money back guarantee? Just curious because that's such an amazing offer.

    You're going to LOVE the workouts...do one on Sunday so you know what you have to look forward to when you get back from being out of town! Good luck!

    I just got it right off the beachbody website. they had free shipping, i was excited! I see your a beachbody coach.. if i decide after finishing my first round that i want the advanced workouts, can you buy them seperately? or could i only buy those when i bought the program?
  • telcochik
    telcochik Posts: 1,643 Member
    Oh no the advanced workouts can be purchased separately as an individual package. It includes 5 dvds including my 2 favorites...Fire 60 and HIIT 30. By the time you complete the initial 90 day program you'll be ready for these longer workouts. I was intimidated by the thought of a 30 minute HIIT...and then I tried it and it was love at first site!

    Best of luck to you with Turbo Fire! I hope you love it as much as I do!

    I'm going to start the Inferno plan today. I weighed in at 155.6 this morning. It would be so freaking awesome to be out of the 150s by the end! I have been plateaued in the 150s for a whole year!

    Are you following the menu for the inferno strictly? Just curious.

    I'm currently awaiting arrival of Turbo Fire but wont be starting until mid january but am excited especially after reading all of your posts.

    Turbo Fire comes w/a Chalean Extreme hybrid schedule or do I have to find that somewhere else. I think I read on here that someone has it please let me know what I need to do to get it, it would be greatly appreciated.
