    I'm currently on week three of the Lean Circuit so once I'm done, I'll come here and post my results. The Lean Phase is the toughest, but my favorite because the body really changes a lot during this phase. Just make sure you get a lot of protein in and eat enough because you're going to need it. I didn't lose many pounds, but the inches are steadily declining, so I don't care what the scale says.

    Thank you for the info/Advice! I will definately try to get all my proteins in. Thank you in advance for when you post your result pics. I dont think i will lost much weight wise either, im sure its going to be more inches than weight & i am ok with that. As long as i am getting rid of fat & gaining muscle and still shrinking then im A Okay! :)

    Have you tried the message boards at Beachbody. There are a lot of b4 and after photos. Here's a link! I did CEX last year and really liked it. Because I was moving long distance adn living in a hotel for part of the time I didnt really get to follow a good clean diet but I did stick w/the workout. My results were pretty decent even with not have a consistently healthy diet. I later did CEX with Insanity for abt 45 days and got really good results. Here's a link to the message boards.

    I love ChaX....I always thought of it as a lite version of P90X. I still incorporate some of DVD's into my hybrid workouts..Burn Intervals is my favorite DVD in the program!!!

    I finally got my Turbo Fire in the mail that I ordered off ebay. I am starting tonight when I arrive home from work. Are you also doing the Shakology?
    I didnt buy into them but I wanted to know others thoughts on them- pros and cons.... if its worth it ot not....

    Excited to start!!! :)

    I am new to this site, but have completed Chalean extreme one time before and just started doing chalean extreme and Insanity together and it is awesome! The first time I did chalean extreme, I lost about 15 pounds in the 4 month program. I loved the workouts and the results! For those who are doing turbofire, turbofire and chalean extreme work really really well together! I hope my review helps a bit!

    I just want to throw this out there, I am a beachbody coach, but I do 100% believe in shakeology, even if I wasn't a coach I used chalean extreme along with turbofire and shakeology and lost 15 pounds in 4 months... it doesn't seem like a lot, but you build muscle and shed unwanted fat all at once! and have fun on top of that!!

    Im almost done with week 2 of the first phase. I LOVE IT! I am pretty sore and i am taking total advantage of GO HEAVY as possible!!! Im feeling really bloated this week though. Not sure if it is from the big increase in protein intake. I currently weigh 140 and have 30% body fat according to the handheld electronic thingy at the gym. I am eating about 180 g of protein a day. Im getting enough fiber but i think they suggest a digestive enzyme type supplement to help with all the protein "bloat". Checking on that today. Other than that, i can see my "guns" getting exposed with the heavy lifting. Hopefully will see some major results from this all over. Love the quick workouts - no fuss, no muss.

    Sorry to high jack your post, but I love Turbo Jam and am looking to get another one of her workouts. Just looking for opinions on which one I should get: ChaLEAN Extreme or Turbo Fire. I am looking to loose some weight and tone up all over. I have about ten lbs to get to pre-pregnancy weight and may want to loose another ten beyond that.

    (Wish I could get both but $$$$.)

    Thanks in advance:flowerforyou:

    If you are looking for a SUPER fun, high energy workout... turbofire is deff what you need! It comes with cardio and some strength training, but only with the band... if you are looking to gain a lot of muscle, go chalean extreme... both ROCK, just depends on your goals!

    I lost 9 pounds from Nov.7 to Christmas with TurboFire everyday and I have lost 5 more pounds since then adding Shaun T Rockin Body to hybrid. Just started ChaLean Xtreme last week. I am loving it so far and hope to have some great results from it, but I am adding extra cardio to it, like on weekends cause I still need to lose pounds and not just inches.

    Saw your post and I am interested in this program too. Is it a program you can do at the gym without dragging your laptop??? How does this work??

    My partner and I just started this program two weeks ago and have both lost 5lb each. We haven't been really strict with our diet though, just being careful with what we eat and cutting down in carbs! Loving it so far. None of us see a physical change as yet but the proof is in the scales for the time being. ????
