The TurboKick videos would probably be right up your alley, as they are Turbo Jam with higher intesity and some fun moves that will keep you challenged. ChaLEAN Extreme is a strength training series of lifting heavy alternated with cardio drills. I LOVE it, but I also really like to lift heavy weights, so it's up my alley!…

It took me several times of going through the workouts to get the moves down. I'm not very coordinated either. But, I would just start and if I had to make up my own moves at certain parts to get through the first few times, I did that. Eventually you'll get it!

Welcome back Megan! There's still a few of us "old" faces on here, so we'll have fun seeing you back here!

Hey, follow us to a new post, as we're getting close to getting this one locked out! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/80705-turbo-jam-turbo-kick-chalean-extreme-fans See ya there!

Good Afternoon Ladies! I did CE Lean Circuit 1 this morning, and will do some elliptical while I watch The Bachelor tonight. I think I have Cathe on the docket for later this week, and I think tomorrow is my first Insanity workout...I'm terrified! :indifferent: I'm just more scared I'm going to injure myself, so I'll have…

Hey Girls! This morning was Lean 1, and will do some elliptical tonight while I watch The Bachelor! Berta- I sent you a message about P90X...just my opinion, as I tried it and ended up selling it. It is TOTALLY different from CE, and I personally don't do well with something that different. However, I do own several of…

Berta- I am so in the same boat as you!!! I used to not worry about going out to eat, or going to a friends house and now I'm "that girl" that's always counting calories, and always worrying about if I'm going over. I've learned to lay off a bit, but still probably could do more! The only difference with me, is I could…

Berta- What a great meeting you had...I'm so glad you are sharing this with us!! I had one of those ah-ha moments yesterday when I was reading an article about how you should not cut out foods you like out of your diet, but instead have a small amount incorporated when you need to (daily, weekly, etc). I needed to read…

Good Morning Girlies!!! Today was another Cathe Friedrich workout...wow, she is just amazing. :bigsmile: I always thought Chalene would forever be my favorite, but Cathe has taken her spot. She just incorporates so much into her workouts, that it's hard to get bored, and easy to always find challenge in the workouts. She…

Good Morning!!! Cathe's Body Max 2 kicked my butt this morning (and gave me an awesome calorie burn to boot :bigsmile: )! I really like the different moves she does, and I'm a little uncoordinated on the step, so know I always have something I can work towards. It's so nice to have DVD's that I know I can grow with...so…

The only thing I would change if it were me, would be to go to a lower cal bread, so that you have some extra cals for dinner? I find if I add a few more calories to dinner, I'm less likely to want to eat afterwards? I think I've seen you have those sandwich thins in your diary before (100 calories for the whole bun), so…

Hey Girls!!!! Hope you are all having a great Thursday...we're almost to Friday...yay!!! This morning I did a Cathe Friedrich Hiit DVD...WOW...that was tough! I had to modify to keep my HRM from exploding! Followed up with some CE abs and CE Recharge. Felt great!!! I decided it would be a good idea to make choco chip…

Good Morning!!! This morning was Cathe's Hiit 40/20...WOW!!! First DVD ever that I've had to modify to keep up. This one kicks butt!! Loved it!! Followed that up with some Abs and Yoga...ahhh.... I think I have Body Max 2 on the docket for tomorrow...man, I love Cathe!!! Have a great one!

Berta- We are here for you! We have all been there at some point or another, and it sucks, plain and simple! I had 2 weeks of the same thing as you, and I still don't know why...is it because I used to eat candy/snacks when I wanted so didn't feel the need to binge, or am I really missing those foods when my mind is…

Good Morning Ladies- Well, I ended up getting in 2 kick butt workouts last night...I was feeling pretty energetic so did 35 minutes of stairs, squats, lunges, jumping jacks, high knees and butt kicks around my house. My hubby and kids came home mid way through and thought I was crazy...they immediately headed outside to go…

Good Morning Ladies!!! I had Lean 3 and Hip Hop Abs this morning...my muscles are still shaking!!!! Welcome to all the newbies...I love seeing new faces on here to add to our group! Jackeezqueen--for intense lower body work, I would recommend ChaLean Extreme (for muscle building), Janis Saffell Brand New Butt (for…

Good Evening Ladies! Well, my rest day turned into a workout day, but only because my muscles finally loosend up...so, another day for a rest day this week...we'll see what day that shall be! Did some TurboKick and also some running up and down the stairs and around the house...my hubby and kids gotta think I'm crazy now!…

Those are my faves. I tried 3T and didn't care for it. I'd say of those you listed, Punch Kick and Jam is my fave though.

Hey Girls! Well, I skipped the morning workout today, I was too sore from my Cathe Friedrich workout yesterday to even move today. Yikes! If I can keep my calories under control, I'm only going to to a light workout (maybe some pilates) tonight, otherwise, I'll get a little TurboKick in if I get too outta control!…

Mornin' Ladies! Wow, am I sore today. Cathe's Muscle Endurance kicked my butt yesterday! I skipped the morning workout because I was too sore to get outta bed. Maybe will try something light for tonight! It takes a lot to make me sore from a workout, so this is a good sign! Laurie--Let me know what you think of Core Cardio…

Good Morning Ladies! Well, I started off the new week and month with Cathe's Muscle Endurance....ouch!!! I am soooo sore, but in a good way! I love her style and unique moves that work different areas than I work with other DVD's. I'm so excited to do more of her workouts!!!! I have a feeling I won't be able to move much…

Good Morning!!! I'm so glad it's Monday and a fresh start to a fresh month! Did Cathe Muscle Endurance this morning...WOW...I thought CE was tough...this lady gave me a run for my money. My arms were so sore I could hardly reach up in my closet to get my sweater down! I'll be hurtin tomorrow big time!! I FINALLY was under…

I'm finally checking in for the day! It's been a wild day...schedule is comletely off, so I didn't get my workout in until late morning, but at least I got it in! Then, it was naps for me and my youngest (he's still not feeling 100% yet, which we thought he would 3 days post surgery), and lots of just laying low. Been…

Ugh, that sucks! Glad it only required 2 stiches and not more! Take it easy tonight and see how it feels tomorrow. I bet you could still do weights, just go really light to avoid over gripping in that area. Sounds like you need an avacado tool. My friend got me one for my b-day one year, and I was like, what the heck???…

Oh Berta, I'm so glad I'm not alone!!! I also have been wondering if my excess fruits/veggies are having a role in this. I eat a TON of fruit each day, but fruit never fills me up, so then I'm hungry right away again. However, if I eat something with carbs (ie the 1/2 a pizza I ate today), I stay full all day. I actually…

Hey Girls!!! Well, can't say today is going as planned, but do they ever?? I have been fighting with my stomach on and off for several months now. For some reason, the cleaner I eat, the worse it is. Just can't figure it out! Anyway, I was doing so well yesterday, and then my stomach started acting up. Well, when it does…

Hey Girls!!! Happy Friday to you all! Today has been an excellent day so far...I couldn't sleep so got up and did a new DVD this morning at 4am (I'm sure that early wake up will hit me later!), then off to the hospital for a quick outpatient surgery for my son (went great!), and now I'm home waiting for my hubby to bring…

Happy Friday Ladies!!! Well, I must have had workouts on the brain this morning, as I was up at 4am (without an alarm) and raring to try out one of my new DVD's! I did Kelly Coffey-Meyers 30 Minutes to Fitness Cardio Step. I honestly felt it was easy and the time flew, but my calorie burn told me my body was working just…

Hi Ladies! I haven't done any other Cathe workouts, but it's scheduled for my near future! :happy: I wanted to order a couple more DVD's to round out my collection, and had you ask you all about them. One is the Kick Punch and Crunch workout...how does this compare to a Turbo Jam or Tae Bo workout? Just wanted to make sure…

Good Morning Ladies!!!! Well, I managed to take a rest day yesterday, and I'm glad I did. I feel much more relaxed, not sore, and well rested! I was even up at 4:30 (again) ready to work out. So, I did Jillian's No More Trouble Zones and then 45 minutes on the elliptical. Felt great, and what an awesome start to the day!…
