My 3 1/2 year old son eats more calories than that and he only weights 30lbs. It really frustrates me seeing this type of thing but it isn't just the eat only 1200 calories it is the products that they sell here take a pill it will make you lose weight, by a wrap it makes you lose inches, drink a meal replacement shake it…

Thank you because even though at the time of the exercise I feel tired at the 8th rep I am not feeling the muscle aches that I did with Burn so I like your idea of doing two reps I think I will do double reps of regular squats, regular sumo squats, dead lifts, bicep curls, overhead press, bench press and chest flies. If I…

Which exercises did you decide to do two sets of? I am curious?

Thanks guys I did rest up Saturday just did house cleaning and put a therma care wrap on my back all day. Woke up Sunday and felt great so I did Push 3 and so far so good. Did Burn intervals today and I am so excited I got through the sumo burpees with no modifications and no stops finished all 20 also did all the moves…

Push Circuit 3 today and I added extreme abs. I feel I have more to give to my abs on weight days instead of being as fatigued after cardio. I hurt my back a little on Friday from going to heavy so took yesterday will be making burn intervals up tomorrow. Hope everyone is having a great day.

I am not sure why you didn't lose an inch. I have lost 3.5 off my waist alone. Do you not have a lot to lose? Did you eat enough? I know that you are also running not sure if you are possibly doing to much so you weren't able to put enough into your weight training days. I would need a little more info. Do you hurt the day…

I completely understand how you feel about your husbands lose. My husband cut his soda intake in half 3 instead of 6-8 a day and stopped eating cookies and oreos. In about 2 weeks he already lost 12lbs. I was so frustrated. I have been weight training and doing cardio for almost 5 weeks now and haven't lost a pound…

Good morning ladies, I am new here looking for some support. I am a mother of 3, 2 of which were c-sections. I am 28 and I weigh in at 128 when I started a month ago I weighed the same but had a much higher body fat % not exactly sure what it was because as I am sure you all know every calculator gives a different answer.…

I am on day 3 of the Push phase and LOVING it. I am up to 20lbs for my lower body and 8 and 10lbs for my upper body.

Push Circuit 2 today my buns are on fire. Wish I knew how many calories I burned but I know that my heart rate gets so high and my breathing labored so who know.

Bump Yum!!

This sounds yummy. Thanks for sharing.

Push circuit 1 today AWESOME!!! I used 8,10,15lbs. I will need to use the 20lbs though for all future leg workouts. Didn't quite reach failure on the standard squats using 15lbs. Loving the dead feeling in my arms right now.

Turbo Jam was Chalene's first workout program and Turbo Fire increases the intensity both are done by Chalene Johnson. If anyone is interested look at my pics in my profile I just posted my 30 day progress pics. Starting the push phase today.

Love the program. Contact me if you want more info. I am about to begin phase 2 and have already lost 3 inches.

For those of you that are thinking about getting Chalean Extreme and don't have an independent beach body coach. Message me. I would love to be your coach and help you through this journey. I LOVE Chalean and am about to begin the second Phase of her program.

I have RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis) and I haven't had much issues at all doing the program. I have more the first week or so than now. She is very careful to instruct you on the proper form of each move so that you are not harming your joints. I use dumbbells but you can also use resistance bands. So the only equipment you…

I will admit that I haven't done the Insanity program. So take my opinion for what it is worth. I LOVE the Chalean program. If you follow the program you work out 5 days a week. 3 strength training and 2 cardio. Yes the program is 90 days but it changes up every 30 days the workouts are between 20-50minutes the Circuits…

Hi I am 5 foot 2, 28 years old, have 3 children (2 c-sections) and I weight 129lbs and would like to weight closer to 120 but like you am okay if I don't lose pounds as long as I lose inches. I am eating about 2000 calories a day total even if I don't workout. So far I haven't lost weight but have lost several inches. I…

Just out of curiosity how does this program affect your Lupus. I have RA and I find this is one of the only types of workout I can do. Even the cardio she has doesn't seem to bother me to bad.

Burn Circuit 1 (make up) and ab burner today. I will do X Stretch tomorrow and then do 30 day measurements Tuesday and start Push Phase on Wednesday I am so excited. I didn't use a single 5lb weight this whole last week. all 8lbs, 10lbs, and 15lbs. I am so excited to see what I can do on single muscle groups.

There are several programs that teach women how to lift. "New rules for lifting for Women", Jillian Micheals has some weight lifting DVD's or Chalean Extreme from Beach body. If you are interesting in the last one message me I am currently do this 90 day program and I love it. will Hit my 30 days in about 4 days and will…

Are you squeaking your stomach and butt muscles as you go up and down? I am pretty short and other than tricep push-ups (one sometimes) I can do I think 5-7 regular ones before I fail. Make sure your arms aren't to far apart and your tighten your whole body as you go up and down.

This may sound dumb but I have no idea what bro-science is LOL. Now I think you have a great plan. Muscle burns fat so the more muscle you have the more fat you can burn. Now for the first few weeks you may gain a little but you will lose eventually I think for now your best friend may be your tape measure. Now with that…

[/quote] Nice! I don't know about anyone else, but I've started doing some practice runs lol Just to get an idea of what weights to use for Push Circuit 1. For instance, I know I'll be using 15 lbs for most shoulder presses (maybe 20), 12 for kickbacks and 20's for bicep curls. [/quote] Nice you are stronger than me right…

To all who are in their lean phase or almost done what is the highest weight you have lifted so far? I am about to begin my push phase and was wondering if I needed to go get some higher weights.

I actually went to Hibbets sports and bought an 80 lbs dumbbell set (it came with 4-10lb, 4-5lb, 4-2.5lb plates and two bars) It was only $65 not half bad. I was just wondering what I might need to start off with.

During the burn phase I started out with 3lb on some moves and can now lift 14lbs with some. Now my lowest weight is 5lbs but not so many any more maybe 3 of the moves I need 5lbs everything else is between 8lbs and 14lbs. I was wondering about the Push phase cause I was wondering if I need to go buy more weights this…

Burn circuit 3 today. 5 more days and I get to start the Push phase. How is everyone liking that phase so far. What is the highest weight you guys are using during the phase?

Yes this happens to me as well. Though I am strength training and they say the strain on the muscle is what does it. The tearing and repairing of the muscle takes more energy than plain cardio. This has been my little solve for the problem. I take a sip no more than half of a 5hr energy 1/2- 1 hr before my workout I not…
