    Hi there Team Turbo!!!

    I just did 30mins of Cardio Party Live Remix with sculpting gloves. I was meant to do 20min Turbo Jam workout but my 11 yo son wanted to do that so I thought at least Im doing something!!

    Anyhow, its about 8.50pm on Monday night now and Ive just finished working out. I must say I was rather sluggish and slow to move this evening.... but im moving!

    So according to my HRM I burned 300 cals , not too bad, I would have liked more but thats ok because I burned some :)

    Hope everyone else is Jamming and having FUN!

    Bring on Day 2!

    It is going to take me a while to get used to the time differences, cause it is Monday morning for me right now. :) I posted my measurements on the other thread, but let me know if you want me to redo them on this one. I will post later on what I do today!

    I just wanted to say that I am really looking forward to this. I have been trying to work out and eat right for a while now, but there has been little difference in my weight and no diffeerence in my measurements. I think that having to report to everyone here will help me keep up with the cardio and eating better (which I think is a large part of the problem), so thanks ahead of time to everyone here!

    Morning Nikkie! Welcome nmoreland & yay fitag!! Okay I just finished my Learn and Burn workout - I burned 220 calories and it was so much fun! Then I did a 55 minute step aerobic workout!

    Nikkie, should our group make a committment to do this until at least the first day of summer (June 21st) - That's a 4 month committment, but we should all be in amazing shape by then. What do you think Nikki & fellow Turbo team members?

    He Nikki!

    Thanks so much for the Awesome website! I love it!!

    Im sure everyone would agree that we are really grateful and appreciative of all the effort you've gone to, to keep us on track, focused and inspired!

    I love the 4 month commitment. But for me it'll be winter, its summer here right now. Im below the equator if any of you are wondering :) ...my profile says WA but that means Western Australia.

    Im so excited and pumped now.....Ive got Turbo Jamming Buddies!

    Thank you Nikki!

    Go TURBO TEAM!!!!!

    Yes I did notice how close our measurements are! ;-)

    Im really really enjoying this group, working as a team makes me feel like I cant quit and that we need to stick together!

    It's Tuesday morning in Kansas (USA). About 40F (before sunrise), and I saw a fox on my dog walk!!

    Oh yes, and I did turbo jam 20 minute and part of ab jam for a total of 45 minutes and 273 calories (according to my HRM). I have karate tonight, so I was doing low impact--saving my knees for tonight. :smile:

    Hi y'all. - 2nd day! Yes!

    I am so motivated thanks to our terrific team!

    Nikki -- Thanks for starting the team & for the great website! You are wonderful!

    I did the Learn & Burn this morning. I may need to repeat it as I am in such bad condition. I still don't think that I have a couple moves quite right... I mean, when I put it together in the Burn part. I can do it fine in the instruction part. I was a little sore from yesterday and I like that. I know it means that I am getting a good workout, etc. Hard to believe that I am a former athlete, and also used to teach step aerobics at one time in my life and now I am struggling to just get started, again. Oh well, I guess that is what my unwise choices has caused. Hopefully, I will get back in better condition someday (hopefully, soon!)

    I hope that everyone has a great day!

    I'm in Pittsburg. Before moving here we lived in Pennsylvania, so I'm still getting used to how strange it sounds to say Pittsburg and see more or less the middle of nowhere. :-)

    Morning ladies! I just did my learn and burn workout (only burned 175 cals today because I had low energy - but that's OK) and also did a half hour aerobic workout and burned 209 calories. Have a wonderful day!

    I was feeling lathargic today and didn't want to work out, but it helped knowing that I would have to check in here.
    Mondays and Tuesdays are my 'light' days, so I have no excuse not to work out. I ended up doing the 30 minute fat blaster and feel much better now that I did.
    Hemlock - I can imagine how you feel with the different surroundings. Even though I grew up in KS, I had been in Phoenix for the past 10 years, and now I am in northern Virginia - so it is all very different for me too.
    Off to do dinner and then to class for me.
    Keep up the great job ladies!

    Me too--Tuesdays I have to be at work at 8a, and since karate is Tuesday evening, I usually skip exercising Tuesday morning. Today, though, I felt like I HAD to do Turbo Jam b/c I didn't want to let you all down. Thanks for that little extra bit of motivation, everybody!

    Well done all!! Thats EXACTLY how we should all be feeling, missing a day and not trying is not only cheating ourself but cheating the rest of the team members who are trying!! I am sooo proud of how much effort everyone is putting in and how much you are all supporting each other!

    "Instead of giving myself reasons why I can't, I give myself reasons why I can!"

    Did my 45 minute Cardio Party today and now im aching!! Well worth it tho... already im feeling amazing! xxxx

    Hey everyone! I want to join your team.
    I have used Turbo Jam before, but got away from it, and now I am starting back today. Monday I did 60 min on the treadmill and yesterday I did Slim in 6 Burn it Up (ow!), so today is Cardio Party day.
    Did you already formulate a rotation for the team? Or are we supposed to create one on our own?

    It was a real challenge for me today. I woke up late 8am and felt like sleeping the whole entire day. I spent most of my day yawning and wanting to sleep so badly. I wondered when and how I was going to get my Turbo Jam in or if I was going to do it at all. So much dialogue going on in my head today about doing it and not doing it! ...But then I thought I made a committment to not only myself but a committment to our Turbo Team. So I thought its only going to happen after dinner goes down. I even set up my laptop in the bedroom to do it (all other tvs were being used)

    So there you have it, I am committed to Turbo Team and to my own success!!!

    Thanks team for being here and keeping me on track :)
