    Turbo Fire looks great, but so expensive!

    Is it ridiculously hard?

    Are you selling it or offering motivation for it?

    No you can do the workouts at varying intensities. It's a killer workout though and so much fun.

    $60 on ebay comparied to $119 on the turbo website. I wouldn't say that it is hard you just have to learn the moves and then the pounds will fly off.

    What I love about Turbo Fire is that you can make it your own. There is a person that does the modifications if you need to do something with less impact. This is very helpful because even though I am 2 months in, there are still some spots where I have to modify, but I still get a good workout. It also has a 'New to Class' option with each DVD that breaks down all of the moves. I am 7 weeks in and have lost almost 15 lbs. and about 10 inches from my body! I actually look forward to working out everyday! I love it! Let me know if you are interested.

    If anyone is worried about the price, there are other outlets to buy it OR beachbody allows you to break it up into $30 payments. I can assist with that as well.

    I'm not a coach, so I'm not selling, but I have to say TF is my FAVORITE WORKOUT EVER. I did my first rotation well over a year ago and still use them daily. 15, 20, 25 and 30 min HiiT workouts with awesome routines and great music - what's not to love?

    There's an optional 9 week prep program that comes with the system, too, so if you were intimidated or more out of shape (like me!) you can start with that. It still gets you really moving, too!

    I bought the Fire Starter two DVD set about a month ago. It was only about $40 and is low impact. I only do the DVD with the two HIITs (20 minute and 25 minute). I'm alternating the HIITs with Turbo Jam workouts (Turbo Sculpt, Booty Sculpt, Cardio Party Remix, etc.). I love it and I'm really feeling a change in my body. One of these days I will probably buy the full set if/when the low-impact HIITs get too easy. For anyone unsure, try the "Greatest HIITs" DVD that they are selling on Amazon for about $25. It's a good way to try the program and see if you'll like it.

    It probably would have been too hard for me if I hadn't already been doing Turbo Jam for a while. But then I'm a 50-something grandmother so younger folks probably wouldn't need as much preparation as I did.

    The best thing about Chalene's programs is that there is absolutely no dread factor. She is the first instructor who has made cardio truly fun for me and I look forward to doing her workouts.

    I have had the program since October and have never tried it. It looks so hard to do. I'm so intimidated. :( Yet it looks like so much fun. I know I would need to start with the 9 week prep program first as I am soooo out of shape!

    Im just finishing up week four, but have yet to see any results on the scale or by tape :0( I was really hoping this program was going to turn my body into something better!

    It's really fun, start with the prep! In 2 weeks I've lost 2 inches off my waist and 1 off my hips. And this is just the "easy" stuff. I can't wait to get into the HIIT workouts this week.

    I may be starting tomorrow. Not sure if I'm ready for it yet but gonna try :)
    I did the HIIT 15 last week and I figure if I can get through that I can get through Fire 30 at least.

    I've been doing it for a while now. I am alternating it with other DVDs. It is a lot of fun but once you've learned the moves it is not too challenging, so I mix it with a bit more difficult DVDs. But I still love it - grate fast pace cardio work out.

    Add me to the Zig-Zag-Knee crew! I eat, sleep, and breathe TurboFire! I did the 12 week schedule, free-styled for a month, and I'm starting a second 12-week round tomorrow (I like resting on Thursdays, which is why I didn't start today).

    I started today! Fire 30 was a little too intense for me. I was fine with the moves and everything but I had to just stand still a few times and catch my breath, and I sucked pretty bad during the second fire drill lol. So I'm not sure if I'm gonna commit to the program yet until I'm a little bit more fit, but I'll try to finish this week at least and see how I feel.

    I wanted to come back and reply to this because I actually am really surprised! Today I did fire 30 again but I was so much better at it than I was Monday, I didn't even take half as many little breaks as I had to before. I remember on Monday just the warm up was getting to me, but today I was totally fine until the last 10 or so minutes. I feel great and I think I'm definitely going to stick to the program now! :)
