    I've had TurboFire since it came out and I STILL watch the infomercial when it comes on :) Haha I guess that's how you know you LOVE your workout!

    I go through all the "paid programming" listings at the top and mid point of the hour looking for the Turbo Fire infomercials (usually on Sunday mornings when there's really nothing else on TV anyway). LOL! Yes, I'm a little nuts! Also might need to get myself a "Genie Bra" and the new Shark vacuum cleaner. :P

    I'm in week two ot Turbo Fire and will be going through the advanced schedule. Then, I hope to move onto the Turbo Fire- Chalean Extreme Hybrid. I've had Chalean Extreme since March of 2009 (?). It was fairly new at the time. However, I've never made it past the Burn phase. I'm going to ask for some Bowflex Selectec weights for Christmas so I won't have to worry about going out and buying heavier weights every week.

    I just ordered Turbo Fire after seeing the infomercial three mornings in a row. I figured, if after 3 mornings of seeing this infomercial, I still wanted it... I should get it:) really excited to start!

    You will love it!! My grandpa taught me this and I still use it...if there is something over $50 that I want and DON'T NEED think about for 3 days and if you still want it then get it. This has saved me tons of money lol

    I LOVE Turbo Fire and recently started Chalene Extreme too and ordered Shakeology lol :)

    But here is a hint, check out eBay for Turbo Fire (best workout ever!) or CLX! I got TF for 45 bucks including shipping and CLX for 40 bucks on eBay...brand new in packaging with everything you get through beachbody....

    I've been focusing on my running lately, but this morning I did TF 45. I love that one, especially the boyfriend song. :bigsmile: I struggled throughout, I think because I ran 10 miles on Sunday and this is my first week back at work. I'm not getting nearly enough sleep.

    I'm starting week three of the prep schedule. So far, so good!

    On week 2 of the prep schedule. I actually did week one then skipped to week 5. So far, so good, but I am still really struggling with the steps and look like a drowning seal flailing around. Even with the breakdowns. Thank God I'm at home where nobody can see me! Haven't noticed a difference yet, but I am considering going to the 20 week program and not finishing the prep course. What did the rest of you do? Just jump right in to the 20 weeks or the prep first?

    I did the same! And you're so right...it's what you look like AFTER! :) I would have used the prep schedule if I had never done a Turbo class before, but since Turbo Jam and Turbo Kick were where I started, I was able to jump right in. Didn't even need the "new to class" option more than once or twice! I guess when you're having fun doing something, you learn faster :)

    I'd like to join the group! I'm on Week 9 (for like the 3rd time as life keeps getting in the way!) but the results have been amazing with Turbo. I did the Prep Schedule too--- while it was good I did that, part of me wishes I jumped in sooner. but hey, the results are all that matter. I've lost almost 10 pounds and some inches and my arms, etc are much more defined. It's great!

    I heart turbo!

    I just started using myfitnesspal 2 weeks ago and it's great. I would love to get the Turbo Fire. How is it? I have Turbo Jams and Chalene Exteme.

    SO this might sound totally dorky, but is anyone interested in keeping this thread active? As far as communicating victories, questions, results etc?? I think it would be kind of fun!

    Not dorky at all! This spring I was involved in a thread of TF users. We posted our workouts daily and encouraged one another.

    Kmartinko: TF is like TJ on steroids :wink: I love it! If you like Chalene, you will love TF!

    What an awesome burn for that workout! Do you wear the weighted gloves?

    Sometimes! I have to restitch part of them since I wear them so often that the velcro is coming loose! :) I didn't wear them yesterday, but I wore them today for Fire 45 EZ :)
