Trying Turbo Jam...Documenting experience

In about 2 weeks from now I will purchase Turbo Jam. I have had rave reviews about it and I am generally interested. So I will make a blog and document my progress. Anyone thing this is an interesting Idea?

I'm seriously considering purchasing it. If you (or any other Turbo Jam users) can post your experiences, I would be most grateful.

Thank you for offering to share your experiences =).

I have TurboJam, it's awesome! I bought a polar watch to track my heart rate and it was sky high! TurboJam burns so many calories! I burned 500 calories in 35 mintues this morning. It takes some getting used to (it kicks your butt the first couple of times) but it is SOOO worth it. And it also provides both cardio and strength training, sometimes in the same session. Totally love it! I lost 4 inches in 10 days (no weight though yet, think I am building muscle still - my BMI is down 3% from when I started) in combination with good eating habits. I wouldn't bother with the meal plan that comes with it though, it involves their protein powders and other products they sell. I'm not too interested in powdered food. But the actual workouts are great! If you stick to CC food and do the workouts, I have no doubts that you will be happpy with the results! I certainly am.

Did you order it online from their site?

I have been doing Tubro Jam for about 6 weeks now.  I ordered it from TV, but it's the same price online. 

I really enjoy it.  The workout is intense, but fun.  It's not like regular workout videos, because it is non-stop action. 

You do a video to help learn the moves, so the actual videos do not spend any time 'teaching' steps.  Your heart rate gets going, and never gets a chance to come down.  There are different types of videos - some aerobic, some strength training (you use weights), and there is an ab video, too.

I also really like the girl who leads the videos.  She is motivating. 

I don't do it every day.  I vary it up with the treadmill, playing soccer, and I walk on my 'off' days.

If anyone has questions about it, feel free to email me!

used turbo jam for three months and lost 30 lbs and got into GREAT shape and got one extremely toned body! lLOOOOVED it

I watched the infomercial on turbo jam so many times and two weeks ago when I came across the infomercial again I decided to buy the maximum package on the beach body site... it's been 10 days now and I still haven't received it yet and I am wayyy too excited and simply  can't wait to do the exercise and work out with chalene I just wish I receieve it this week =( the waiting is torture.

There's another great DVD workout... it's the one with Richard Simmons and it's about an hour exercise... I did the exercise for only 3 days plus did biking for an hour and burned 500 calories and OMG I lost 3 lbs... haha I got so excited and I actually feel better about myself.

I am 5 ft tall and 135 lbs (used to be 138 close to 140) and I got very depressed and I felt fat and ugly but now that I'm down to 135 and I love to exercise again I know I am going to lose weight and I'm not going to give up until I'm down to 110 lbs.......... I also ordered the acai berry pills... it's an anti-oxidant hope it works for me.......

 

I just ordered turbo jam.  I really want Chalean Extreme though.  But I thought I would start with Turbo Jam.  I should get mine in the next week.  Hey lets start a group!

By the way Chalean is the one who does Turbo Jam and now has like a womans version of P90x

Yeah, that'd be awesome! I can't wait for mine.  I will probably receive mine if not tomorrow maybe on friday and as soon as I get started, I'll keep you posted.

the P90x, hmm i don't know if i can do that work out yet... i'm going to start with TJ first and work my way up to p90x.

 

Superm, if you are thinking P90x for the future, try Chalean extreme.  Same idea, done by turbo jam chick.

Hey! I bought Turbo Jam awhile ago (a little while after it first came out) off of E-Bay. I love it because it combines kickboxing moves with some dancing that just helps you relax and not feel like it's such an intense workout. I'd be totally down with starting a group! I haven't Turbo Jammed in a while, and would love to start again...I just need motivation and I think this would help!

jjlewis-where did you find Chalean Extreme? On the Beach Body website?

Yes!  It looks good and when I get what I can out of TJ, thats my next move

 

Where are the turbo jammers on this post?  I started this weekend, did the learn and burn Sat and Sun and the 20 minute quick workout along with 10 minute ab today.  The 20 minute one, crap, its work!

How is everyone else doing?

hey, just wondering what are you using to track how many calories you burn when you do turbo jam??

 

 

 

i got mine 2 or 3 weeks ago... first time trying it, it was fun but now i found it boring and i don't know why... the workout is great, i just don't love the music they use... and plus i can't track how much calories i burn when i do turbo jam so i went back to my treadmill and bike... *sigh.

also, do u know the workout dvd of richard simmons? compare to turbo jam, i burn more calories with his workout... i don't know. 

when i do the richard simmon's workout, i lose about 2 lbs a week...

how about you? how's your turbo jamming going? hope it's working for you... it does work for me but like i said, i burn more with richard simmon's work out.
