    I haven't done it, but my BeachBody coach is a HUGE fan of all-things-Chalene! And she looks GREAT! After TurboFire, she did TurboKick...and now is a TurboKick instructor.

    bought it about a month ago. with other fitness activities i'm not a set schedule with it, but the times i've worked the dvd's into my workouts, its been awesome. it kicks my butt every time! the "new to class feature" which is same class, but with instructional breaks in between sets is really nice. she keeps me motivated the entire time. right when i'm starting to drag she boosts me back up with some word of encouragement. music is fun, moves are never boring (hint, it is a little complicated at first, but instructions are good, just keep moving even if you mess up!).

    This is my absolute FAVORITE workout! It is fun and I love the music. Its a workout where I don't look at the clock and when it's over I can never believe it is over already. I had my most success while doing TurboFire. I lost 20lbs. doing it. Anything Chalean is amazing! I don't find her annoying like some other instuctors out there. TurboJam and Chalean Extreme are also amazing!

    It really is a lot of fun. And you feel like you got a great workout. TurboFire is my program of choice.

    I'm an Independent Beachbody Coach...love, love LOVE TurboFire and anything Chalene does! Her energy is amazing and you have so much fun working out you don't realize how hard you worked. I work out with a heart rate monitor and I burn as many calories doing TF as I do running. It's that great! Highly recommend it! Feel free to message me about it, I'd love to help!

    I haven't done it consistently or exclusively enough to be able to comment on the results but it is SUPER fun! I generally do it on rainy or really hot days when I can't (don't want to) run outside.

    I am currently on Week 4, Day 25 of TurboFire. So far I have lost 12 pounds. But that's not the only difference. I can actually FEEL the changes in my body - I feel it strengthening. The biggest change is how my clothes fit.

    Believe me, you work your butt off! I've sweat until I was blinded, but it feels awesome!

    I workout with a HRM and my BodyBugg and I actually burn more calories doing TurboFire then I do Running. About 4 more cals a min.

    It's an exercise program like any other. If you do the work, you'll get the results. It's a good mix on cardio, HITT, some strength and abs. I love it and have used it on and off for over a year now. I recommend it.

    doesn't really compare to zumba at all. it's dancy but these are totally different.

    I take turbokick at the YMCA and they say it's basically the same thing. I love it! Makes for a fast and fun hour plus it really works up a sweat.

    I am on week 2, day 2 of Turbo Fire and I love it! I really hate exercising - I know that's horrible but I just usually find it sooo boring. I can't stand going to the gym, or jogging on a treadmill for 45minutes, it bores me to tears. So I just bought Turbo Fire 2 weeks ago and I looove it!

    It's very much like Zumba because there's great music and you do incorporate some dancing in with the kicks & punches. It's more than that though - you have different classes. Some are cardio, some are stregthening and core classes, some are stretching classes. It really teaches you to be more flexible and works out every single part of your body! I'd really recommend it! It's wonderful :)
