I'm starting ChaLEAN Extreme on July 28 and could use some buddies. No matter where you are in the program or if you doing it as a hybrid with something else I could really use your support, knowledge, advice, and motivation.
Who's with me? :bigsmile:

I'm starting on the first of August (because I assume that's about when I'll have my disks I just ordered)! I'd love to join you in getting this done. I was searching for a support/motivation group myself.

Hello! I'm in!
I just started on Wednesday. I'm going to do Burn Circuit 2 tonight. It is taking a bit of getting used to for me as I'm brand new to using resistance bands instead of weights. I'm liking it so far though!0 -
I was wondering about the resistance bands. It seems most of the people on the other thread seem to use weights, but weights are so expensive!! I only have up to 8 pound weights so I'm certainly going to need more resistance than that eventually. How did you like Burn Circuit 1? Mine shipped recently, estimated arrival 7/26. I can't wait!!0
-
I finished week 1 but after that I've been loosely following the schedule. I'm thinking about starting over.0

I am on my second week of Push and i love it! Count me in!0
-
I love to join this group. I just ordered my dvd's tonight, so hoping to have them next week. Would love to have your support while doing it!0

I plan to start on August 1st and will be including Turbo Fire into my routine too!0

I just started the Turbo Fire...is that the same?
I'm in!0 -
So I'm having trouble saying goodbye to Turbo Fire. I'm not wanting to do a hybrid either - like to get through the pure program so I can judge it better and I'm just a weirdo who doesn't like to mix her chocolate with her peanut butter. Anyway, I think I'm going to stick to Turbo Fire for 2 more months (finish the 20 week program) and then start CLX. Sorry to push it off a ways but Turbo Fire is so much fun. Plus, I want to lose this last 8lbs before I start lifting. So now I think I'll start CLX Sept. 22. I'll be checking back here often though. Who knows I may get bored with TF and move to CLX sooner. I'm so indecisive - sorry!0

Sorry it's not the same, turbo fire is more just turbo and chalean extreme is more weights. but either way, chalean is awesome no matter what you do.0 -
I'm in! I'm on the 4th day of the program and definitely loving it right now! Definitely need motivation though!0

I'll be starting it around the middle of the first week of August! I'd love to connect with other people doing Chalean, or the hybrid, as I will be too!0

I completed the whole thing with resistance bands and they worked great! I'd rather have Chalene's select-techs, but they aren't in the budget. I bought a set of 3 from Target, you can clip one or more together at a time, so you can get a lot of resistance. They were $20. It was a little frustrating at first, sometimes I had to pause or go back if I picked the wrong resistance or needed more time to follow how Donna wrapped her bands around her feet. It's a great program, I am going to do it again this fall:)0 -
I just got a set of bands that you can combine for different resistance levels on Amazon. I hope I don't hate them ;-) They really are the max end of my budget so I'm going to make the best of what I have. Either way, I'm sure the program will be quite effective.0
-
I just got CLX and plan on starting Aug 1st - need to see about some weights first. Would love to join in with you all for support and advice!0
-
I just got my dvds. i am in.0
-
Welcome to everyone joining in. I'm totally excited! I've spent the last couple of days watching the sessions we'll be working on for the next 4 weeks and it looks like it's going to be challenging but fun. Can hardly wait for Monday to roll around.0
-
I've been reading the guidebooks and watching the basics dvd and I'm so excited to start this! I still have to find some weights this weekend, but I may just start with the bands. I'm not sure how much of an investment I'm ready to put into this just yet. But it looks like a great program and I'm hoping to see some results before the Marine Corps Ball in November!0

Hey i saw you post i'm in my second week of the burn circuit, tomorrow is intervals and ab burner !0
-
Started Burn Circuit 1 this morning with the bands and I think that once I get the higher resistance ones today they're going to work just fine! I really feel all the muscles I worked this morning already.0
-
I Just started today!0
-
I just started today too, but I think I need heavier weights!0

Thanks for the info Jenyfur1...0

Anytime! We are all dealing with basically the same issues.. Weights vs Bands, Heavier weights needed etc. Nice to know you are not alone..:)0
-
i'm on the 4th week of month one. Haven't seen many results but i'm going to keep pressing play.0
-
Still waiting for my shipment, hope to have it by tomorrow, will definitely be starting soon!0
-
I'm in! Almost done with week 3 and loving the program! A lot more fun than Power 90, in my opinion. I could already see my arms are becoming more toned. I'm thinking I need to add in some extra cardio to combat my tummy flab.
How is everyone doing today? Keeping those eating habits in check?0 -
I got my shipment. Plan on starting it on sunday! Can't wait!0
