Who here has done Turbofire and how did you like it? I am getting some DVDs from a coworker who is not using them and even though I do not plan to follow it fully I plan to incorporate some of the workouts into my routine. The infomercial made it look like a a lot of fun

    I have done it (not according to plan) and I LOVE it! :) It's a great sweaty workout, and I love having it for when I can't get to the gym (like this morning) There are so many discs it's hard to get bored, and when I just need a jumpstart in my mood and day I love love love the HIIT workouts. I don't really use the strength ones, but love all the rest!

    I just started week 10. I do really like it. It's fun and hard. I insert some mountain biking into it, and you might want to put in some heavier weights, but that depends on what your goals are.

    I have 2 weeks left and I will have finished all 20 weeks. I think TF is probably the best workout I have ever done. I get sweaty and gross, but my belly is looking a lot leaner, so I'll be okay with multiple daily showers!

    I have not looked at the DVDs quite yet but from the sounds of it there are also videos to do with weights? that is awesome than I am going to really like it I thought it was only Cardio DVDs

    Have you lost a lot of weight with the program? or have you lost a lot of inches?

    I have lost both inches and weight! I am a huge fan of TF! I had a baby in March and I am only 1.7lbs away from my goal weight and I was only approved to workout since April 27, 2011! You will not be sorry you started these workouts...they are very addicting! :bigsmile:

    WOW!!!! Congrats that is amazing, are you following any type of meal plan or just using MFP for your calories? I cannot wait to go home today and try them out. Do you follow their schedule too?

    I do not follow the TF plan, I mix up my own plan...I like a tough workout and I am all about results and the plan that TF gives you to me is a little too easy. Don't get me wrong TF is a hard workout, but the schedule they provide is too boring for me. I like to have 4-5 days of very intense workouts and typically one day that is more relaxed and then I take one day off per week. To tell you the truth TF is so much fun that I have to force myself to take a day off! lol

    As far as meal plan wise, I do my very best to eat organic foods and stay away from too much sugar (which is really hard for me!). I do not deprive myself of any particular foods, I just try to keep portion sizes down and eat lean proteins to keep me full. Best of luck to you girl!

    There are two "strength" DVDs but they are all done with resistance bands and/or your body weight. I've been reading a lot lately on how that might not be enough for already fit people. There's also a yoga DVD (still my favorite).

    Oh and I've lost 8lbs since starting it while not being overly strict with my diet.

    I'm on Week Three and love it! It is totally kicking my butt! Lol! Chalene is fun and motivating. And I love the kickboxing moves. ♥
