Just did Burn Intervals for the first time... WOW that was intense! I feel so strong right now! I'm loving this program so far.0
-
Finally well enough to work out!
CE Burn Week 2, Burn 2: 210 cals (I changed HRM's and apparently my new one is defective, wahhhh, but my cals burned are higher, yay!!!)
Walk 3.5, 30 mins, 140 cals
Great going everyone!
YAY!
Today:
Push 3 10 min elliptical highest intensity 341 calories gone!.0 -
CLX Burn it off, ab extreme, recharge - 469 calories!0

Ohh! I want to play! :happy:
I just completed Burn week 1. I LOVE this program so far. It kicks my a**, but I can already feel more firmness and definition (underneath the fat...lol). The last time I lost weight, I really neglected strength training and focused primarily on burning as many calories as possible and losing weight. Now that I've regained all that weight I lost last year, I've decided to focus on FAT loss rather than "weight" loss. I still use my weight as one of several ways to track my progress, but I don't rely as heavily upon it. My clothes becoming looser and my triceps making an appearance are much better indicators of my progress! I get more excited about being a belt loop down than being a pound down.
Tomorrow is a rest day, so I'll probably go for a run-walk. (I can't really say I go for "runs" yet...lol). Keep it up, everyone!0 -
CLX Push 1 + 12 min elliptical level 16 - 364 cals busted!0

How is ChaLean Extreme working for everyone? Is it basically a lifting program?0
-
I'm only a week in but loving it so far, there are three weight workouts a week plus two cardio which you either pair with an ab workout or a yoga style workout, so you get two rest days. :-)0
-
I'm done Week One! I'm looking forward to Week Two. I wrote down all my weights and I can definitely go up on some exercises.
Hope everyone has a successful week!0 -
My week 2 starts today! Can't wait to get home and get it done.0

Hi ladies!
I am back! I have become an auntie again and went home to meet my niece. I haven't exercised at all while I was home so I will be restarting on Friday!
It is great to see the activity on here!
I'll be checking in even though I am not starting till Friday.
I need your advise as well. I need to change the given schedule. I was wondering if anyone of you does a different schedule?
It is just that I have a busy week and I need one day completely off which for me is Sunday. I work on Saturdays and My work gets really busy and I am on my feet all day so I usually come home exhausted. So I also need Saturday off. I also work on Thursday but I am not as busy so I guess I can do a workout after that. So I was thinking to just shift the days so that I still have the breaks between the lifting days. Do you think that would be ok? Also what do you think about doing 2 workouts i.e lifting and cardio in one day and have 3 days off?
Any input would be appreciated

Daisy that is exactly what I do. I lift Mon, Wed, Fri with cardio Tue & Thu. If I feel really inspired (or energetic..lol) I will play with a little something on Sat, otherwise it's a rest day both Sat and Sun.
CLX Burn Intervals - 409 cals burned0 -
@Daisy, I say as long as your doing it, it really doesn't matter how and when. My work and school schedules vary so much that I have to be flexible. But I'm at least trying to get in the 5 exercises each week, and an extra cardio day somewhere in there during the week.
Welcome back!0 -
Hey ladies! Wish I'd seen this last week, I just restarted CLX again. I only made it to the end of the Burn phase last time, I'm going the whole way this time!
Totally loving it, I'm on my second week, lifting Mon/Wed/Fri so tomorrow is Burn Circuit 2. Lots and lots of deadlifts going on in there! My favourite is BC3.0 -

Great work everyone!0 -
OK, I did Burn circuit 3, Burn intervals, abs and Burn it off today, needed to catch up. I'm exhausted. 850 calorie burn and 2 hours of exercise.0
-
Hey everyone- I'm starting tomorrow for my first round. I'm excited! I'll be keeping up with my running (usually 25k a week) 3x a week so I think I'll just do the 3 strength workouts on the other days with one rest day.0

I am hoping to receive chalean extreme today and after reading all your posts I'm really excited to get started. I keep reading that Chalene recommends lifting "heavy" - what does that mean in terms of weights? I have 8 and 10 lb. dumbbells-will that be good to start with or should I plan on picking up heavier ones? Thanks for any info you can send my way!!0
-
I think that is fine to start, I'm currently using 5 and 8lbs and will be moving up to 10lbs next week. :-)0

Staring the lean phase today...I liked it.
CLX Lean 1 - 352 calories burned!0 -
Hi everybody. Hope you don't mind if I jump in. I started CE on Saturday and have completed Burn 1 & 2. Today is my rest day. I am committed to completing the 3 months of workouts, just in time for Summer!! I have never completed the entire program. I used 5lbs for warm ups (light), 10lbs for biceps and 12lbs & 15lbs for lower body and back. I can't wait to hear all about other's results from using CE. If you have any tips or results, please share! It's very motivating to those of us just starting out!0

I did ChaLEAN Extreme last Spring and absolutely loved it! I have results posted on my facebook page if you want to see my pictures. (Way easier than posting pictures here)
