So today starts my week 3 and I begin it with Fire 45 EZ class. I have done the Fire 45 Class so I'm not for sure if there is a difference in Fire 45 and Fire 45 EZ. It's kind of getting easier to keep up with Chalene (even though I am doing the modified moves) and so excited that I'm am so close with finishing my first month with the program.0

That is great, can't wait until I am a month in. So are you seeing any results yet?0 -
I would like to join the group too, I should be getting my Turbo fire in by 3/31/11!!!
I have done the Insanity series and loved them, but need something to mix them up with.
Super Excited0 -

I have lost about 1.5 pounds using it so far but at the end of week four, I get to do my measurements again to see if I have lost some inches. I took my measurements before I started so hopefully I was able to cut some of it down.0 -
Fire 55 is tough but it went by pretty fast for me. Even doing the "new to Class" option. I made it through..you can do it too!0

I did Upper 20 from the advanced DVDs this morning. It was really good, just the right amount of work for a beginner, like me. I used 5 lb dumbbells and did make it to muscle failure. I am going to to Abs 10 and Lower 20 tomorrow, I will let you know how they are.0

Got my Fire 45 done tonight...wow! What a workout! I can feel it in every muscle in my body! lol Loved it though..it went by really fast....even did the new to class (59 mins) and it seemed like it flew by! Burned 775 cals too!
Tomorrow it's Hiit 20 and stretch 10. Bring it!0 -
HI Guys! Seems liek everyone is doing well. I have a problem keeping up with with th 30 as well. My favorites are Fire 45 and HiiT 25. I do a Hiit almost everyday...made uo my own schedule. I just always feel so good after the longer ones....I figure "what's 15 more minutes"? I am trying to burn 600 or more cals per day.
A friend and I get together once per week, she has Insanity, LOVE it! She loaned me The Upper Body Weight Training and Sports interval (which we did yesterday). I like the variety!
The scale has finally started going down, I think. I am trying to eat ALL of my exercise calories....I think it's helping!0 -
Did HIIT 25 yesterday and I was tough for me because we did 4 HIIT routines but I was also happy because I was able to keep up. I felt great once the workout was over. I get to enjoy my rest day today.0
-
Did Hiit 20 tonight. Awesome! Tomorrow is my rest day....which means I am going to do Zumba! yay! My weekly Zumba class is tons of fun.
So far, Fire 45 is my fave as well....I ran around all day singing "I got your boyfriend, I got your man".....haha0 -
Killed Fire 30 today! Feel great now! I also did Upper 20 again this morning and it wasn't as hard this time. Can't wait to try Fire 55 tomorrow, I'm also going to do Abs 10 again. This is the at home workout I have ever done.0

Can I join? I started Turbo Fire back in January and I've lost 20lbs and a ton of inches. I've been sick off and on this month so I haven't worked out as much as I would like. Now that I'm finally feeling better I've decided to restart my third month.
I'm on week 9 day one as of today. But instead of the HIIT 15 I might do the advanced class HIIT 30.
I love doing the HIIT 30 because I always end up losing at least a pound or two the next day. :bigsmile: And I've got lots of pounds to lose.

Sorry I haven't been on here, but I'm still working out! Just did HIIT20 and Sculpt 30! Hope everyone is doing great:happy:0
-
So yesterday, I did HIIT 15 and Tone 30. The Tone 30 was harder for me than I expected but I was able to finish. Tonight, it's Fire 45 EZ Class (which I love). Good Luck ladies and "Happy April Fool's Day"0

Got through 55 today. Man, is it long. I finished though, and then did the stretch, too. Fire 30 tomorrow with Ab Ripper and hiking on Sunday. I ordered some new shoes last night and hope they get here soon. My runners just aren't cutting it and doing TF in socks or barefoot is giving me blisters.0
-
Didn't get a chance to do Fire 55 yesterday (out of town at my parent's house) but I plan to make it up on Wednesday (my rest day). Starting week 4 this week so I am excited to record my results by the end of this week to see how many inches I lost.0
-
Did core and stretch 40 today. Stretch was not as bad as I was expecting, and it was pretty challenging. I just really don't like yoga. Can't wait for Zumba tomorrow night! Going to do Upper 20 and Lower 20 in the morning. Have a great day everybody, and keep Turbo'ing!0
-
I am back guys and I am sooo ready to get back on track! I am starting over because I have misses 3 weeks due to our baby being sick. So today is Fire 30. Hope everyone is doing good0

Hi everyone,
Would you mind if I joined the post? I am an irish girl living in London and we don't have Turbo Fire over here. Found Turbo Jam by accident on amazon last year and have fell in love with it... so far I have lost nearly 50 pounds. Have had some delays and bad weeks so I still have a load more to lose but I got Turbo Fire last week and I am loving it!! OMG its like Turbo Jam on acid!! Very fast but very effective, so far with calorie controlling on MFP and following the class schedule I have lost over 8 pounds! Am really thrilled as I have to go to New York in June for my brothers wedding and really want to have some more weight lost.
Anyway looks like everyone is doing really well and I wish ye all the best.

Take care,

Hi Amy welcome.Turbo Fire is so much fun and I love the way I feel after a class. Happy to have you join us!
Take care,

Yesterday I completed HIIT 20 and Stretch 10. Today I'm doing Fire 55 EZ class to make up what I missed on Sunday. Everyone have a good day!0
-
Well done everyone.... just did fire 45 which I thought was harder than fire 55! Maybe it was all in my head :laugh:
My other half did come home half way through and told me my face was an alarming shade of red :explode:
Just wonder how often everyone is trying to do the workouts i.e. how many days a week? Also just wondering if anyone takes any of the recovery drinks that Chalene talks about?
At the moment, I do shift work so only do it on my day off which usually works about four days a week. I hope thats enough. I am going to weigh myself Monday so all going well I'll be a happy bunny!
Good luck everyone0 -
I just did HIIT 20 and it was, dare I say, EASY. I am actually thinking of doing it again in an hour lol. I just drank a bunch of water and need my stomach to empty out first, I hate jumping around on a sloshy belly Either I have gotten much fitter since doing HIIT 15, or 20 is just an easier workout.
Amy- I am not doing TF according to the schedule, either. I am adding an extra day off of cardio to do weights and a day for Zumba. I think the key is that you do what you can consistently stick with and you will see results eventually. Just really try to keep your calories in check on your non-workout days and you should do fine. As for recovery drinks, I just drink 1% milk made into chocolate milk using the sugar free Hershey's syrup after hard workouts. No real need to buy expensive recovery drinks. I do drink protein shakes on my weight days, though. I have also heard of mixing vanilla whey protein powder with orange gatorade as a recovery drink.0 -
Took yesterday off and couldn't finish Fire 45 today :frown: I feel so weak. I have out of town errands tomorrow, so tomorrow evening I will be doing Core 20 and a 1 mile run. Decided that life is too short to do a workout that I don't like and won't be doingSstretch 40 anymore. I will be replacing it with a 1 mile run, I would like to start trying to increase the distance I can run at 5 mph. I would like to get up to 2 miles by the end of Turbo Fire.0

So yesterday I did Fire 45 and completed my first 4 weeks of Turbo Fire. So now comes 4 weeks of straight cardio but I will actually miss my HIIT workouts. Here are my first 4 week stats:

So I lost a total of 6.2 pounds and 5.25 inches......SO EXCITED!!!!!0 -

Great job you have done an awesome job!
I too am starting month 2 of TurboFire, I think I may have to sneak one of those HIIT workouts in on Wed. because I don't think that I can go without them .
I lost 3 pounds and about 3 inches. I killed it in the first week but my eatin hasn't been so good lately, so here's to getting back on track and seeing even better results this month!0 -
Did 55 EZ today. I was able to burn 374 calories! It's gotten slightly easier than when I started a month ago, but I absolutely love the feeling I have when I am done! Hope everyone is doing well with their workouts :happy:0

Guys, I totally blew my calories yesterday. i probably ate maintenance or a little more :ohwell: We were in the nearest city (70 miles) and went to a restaurant we don't visit often. It's only open from 6am until 2:30 pm. They have the most delicious sandwich I have ever tasted, so I ordered it and ate the whole thing. I did enjoy it and instead of eating the fried potatoes it came with, I ate a fruit cup as a side. The sandwich probably has 800+ calories. :blushing: It's ok, though. I came home, ate an apple and went to work. When I got home, I ate a lighter portion of dinner and then ran a mile and did Core 20. Before bed I made a Carnation breakfast with almond breeze. Back on track today with 40 minutes of strength training this morning, Zumba and softball practice tonight.0

So I did Fire 30 and Sculpt 30 yesterday and my arms are so sore today. Funny thing that happened yesterday during the Sculpt 30 class was that my 1 year old daughter decided to join me in squats. I couldn't even do them correctly because I was too busy laughing at her trying to do it. Fun times!!! Today I enjoy my rest day but maybe go for a work later on with my family. Good day ladies!0
