  • Not that I condone the action, but I LOVE "Boom, I got your boyfriend" from Fire 45. As soon as I hear it, I forget what I'm supposed to do and just dance! I also like "who's house?" and the beginning of one of the dvd's ( IDK which one) where it says "all the time? all the time." There are more I like...I just don't know…
  • I learned to love Stretch 10 and Stretch 40. I was never much of a stretcher before TF but I really need it, especially Stretch 10. That Tae Kwon Do stretch she does really opens up my hips and stretches me out. I look forward to doing Stretch 10 after the workouts even if its not on the schedule. It has really loosened me…
  • Hello all! Pressing play late tonight. Week 8 is finally here! Yay! Recovery week. I'll be doing 45 EZ which I have not done since Week 3, so it won't be "fired up" this time around. Have a good night everyone!
  • Ugh! I did not press play today so I will double up my workout tomorrow with Fire 45 in the a.m. and Core20/Stretch 40 after lunch. Heading out tomorrow night again with a friend. I know we're going to Wildfire for appetizers and a martini flight. So, I will work extra hard for my calories tomorrow....knowing that i'll be…
  • Good morning, Ladies! I'm almost done with Week 7. My meds are working now...not coughing as much anymore. I'm doing so well that when I did 55EZ last night, I was way past the zone, my hrm kept beeping...and I wasn't even huffing and puffing. The steroids are clearing the gunk out of my lungs and I'm feeling much better.…
  • I had it a year ago. Did the tennis ball, ice packs, stretching, massages....didn't work for me. Saw a podiatrist and I have very flat feet (no arches) so I got fitted for inserts that are interchangeable. I can put them into any shoe and I haven't had any pain since. Good luck!
  • Good morning! Welcome Jaya & 24km! I'm Stel. I am 7 weeks into TF and loving it. Later today, I will be doing Fire 30 & Sculpt 30. Vin-I'm going to use hand weights this time. Have a good Friday everyone!
  • Hi, I'm 42. I've been on here for a couple of months and have lost 8 lbs already. I still have a ways to go. I am in Week 7 of Turbo Fire and have started to incorporate weight training into my workouts so that when I reach my GW I don't have any loose skin flapping about. Feel free to add me anyone...just let me know…
  • I am going to sleep well tonight. I already did Stretch 40 and my legs are still killing me from Body Beast. I hope I can walk tomorrow. Tomorrow is my 1st day of Week 7. I hope I can get through 55 EZ with my legs. I will have to stretch again before I pass out. Good night everyone!
  • I survived Body Beast: Build Legs~Boy, did I sweat buckets, I could not see out of my eyes. I lifted heavy since I knew I was working on legs. It was less than 40 minutes long...not too bad. I couldn't do all the reps but I did finish the workout. Looking forward to adding this to the mix on my light days of TF. Then, on…
  • Vin~ You just made me LOL seriously and hoping not to wake anyone up. I hope you're okay now. I hear some of you ladies talk about punching yourselves and I thought "how could that happen?" Well, now I know. Yesterday, I was doing 55EZ and the part right before the "capoirera" when you do a slow punch punch then a quick…
  • I track mine separately, as well.
  • Hello everyone. I'm doing 55Ez later today. I have also decided to incorporate weight training to my Turbo Fire workouts. I do not want to reach my GW and then have to work on toning up my body. I love Turbo Fire. Chalean is so motivating and I love the music but I need something more in addition to the cardio aspect. My…
  • Hi, I did 7 weeks of p90x last spring and lost my motivation when summer started. I started Turbo Fire in early Dec and I am now 6 weeks in. I love it. It's really dancey, the music is great. Do the "new to class" part when you're 1st beginning so you get the moves down. It takes a few weeks to finally get the moves. It's…
  • Hey all! I did Fire 30, Tone 30 & Stretch 10 today. I'm in the middle of Week 6 and still loving it. Good job Jeni! Vin, I have read that book about Clean Eating. It's an adjustment at first if you're used to eating convenient processed food but I have noticed a difference in how I feel when I eat clean and when I don't.…
  • Hi all! I'm 5'1" CW: 172; GW: 127. I'm in Week 6 of Turbo Fire. Add me if you want an just LMK where you saw me.
  • Love your transformation. I'm a shortie too with 50 pounds to lose. Reading your story gives me hope. Thanks for sharing and well done you!
  • Another late workout in tonight....well, not a sweaty workout, so maybe it will help me sleep. Vini~ My bday is March 31, Easter this year. Last time it was Easter on my bday was in 2005 when I was pregnant with my twins. Anyway, good night all! Catch you all tomorrow.
  • Melzy, Thanks for your input! I attempted p90X Classic last spring for 7 weeks. I modified everything! Then summer started and I lost my motivation to continue. I started Lean last Fall, then gave up after 2 weeks. I was thinking that I already had P90X that I should just do that instead of CLX. I've heard that CLX is…
  • I had the chills today (no fever) and wasn't feeling up to doing my fave, Fire 45. I pushed through those feelings and went downstairs to do it. After 10 minutes, I was jumping around like a rabbit....so, it's all good. I'm glad I pressed play today. I wouldn't have done that before but I love the feeling I have…
  • I did Fire 55 EZ today and I also wasn't feeling all that great during the workout. I usually work out on an empty stomach but this time I switched it up a bit and ate a full breakfast. I waited an hour and halfway through I felt like I was going to hurl. I didn't. So, I pushed thru the whole thing and I was "dogging it".…

  • Thanks for sharing your pics. You all are very inspiring! I know I can do this!
  • My schedule is still off. I can't wait until my kids go back to school on Monday, so I can go back to a normal schedule of getting up in the morning and getting my workouts done. I just finished 55EZ. Gotta get used to it as I'll be doing it twice a week this month. I can tell that my heart is getting stronger…
  • I have the Polar FT4 and love it. calories burned are more accurate than fitness pal's. Hope u find the right one for You.
  • Hello everyone. Sorry, i haven't been checking in. Schedule here at home is starting to get normal, now that it's after the holidays. I have been pressing play throughout. Today is my last day of Week 4. Looking forward to doing all cardio now for the next 4 weeks. Although, I will miss the HIIT's. I am still modifying the…
  • Week 4 Turbo Fire. Fire 55 EZ. Burned 461 calories. Oh yeah!
  • I just made one today with frozen peaches and cocoa powder and my whey protein, wheat germ, agave nectar and unsweetened almond milk. I usually use spinach and decided to change it up a bit using kale. Not pleasing to the eye, but I know it's good for me. I'm going to try these recipes and see what happens. My drink was…
  • Thanks for sharing!
