Turbo Jam: Calorie-Blasting Cardio, Kickboxing, Body-Sculpting Workout DVD Program

This Maximum Results Kit has been a lot of fun. There are two DVDs in one case with a total of five workouts (six workouts if you include the session after Chalene shows you the elite 11 moves). I like Turbo Jam. It hasn't been hard for me to do it. I got the moves down after a couple of times of doing the first and second workouts. Time seems to go by fast as you do these workouts (the DVD shows the time countdown). I was almost done and realized that I had been exercising for almost 45 minutes to the one workout. There's a shorter 20 minute workout included in the first DVD as well. I highly recommend keeping a small towel and some water nearby to wipe the sweat from your face and neck and drink some water when they take the break during the workout or just stop whenever you need to and drink some water. If something is too hard for you just don't do it or modify it as Chalene says. It's a lot of fun to do, though, and I have enjoyed it. I have a lot of weight to lose and the results kit includes a guide (among other things you get) to figure out how many calories you should be eating per day based on your current weight. This is really helpful. I'm enjoying this system. Read the materials that come with it and use them. I'm just getting started on Turbo Jam and I haven't made it through all of the workouts yet, but I really like it and its convenient and fun to do. Enjoy.

I bought this set because I was interested in Turbo Fire, but was afraid to try it without having done Turbo Jam first. Turbo Jam is awesome. I have a 1 year old, and I have finally lost all my baby weight! (Now to get rid of that other 30 lbs lol) I paid $72.80 for this on Amazon. It does come with the 5 workouts: Learn & Burn, 20 Min, Ab Jam, Cardio Party, and Turbo Sculpt. It also comes with 2 "bonus" workouts: Punch, Kick, & Jam, and Turbo Jam Live: Booty Sculpt and Abs. I'm glad it came with these two workouts. The "Live" one is filmed in an actual room at a gym. It reminded me of when I used to go to boot camp classes at my old gym (I live too far away now). I added the gloves to all the cardio workouts after the first week, and I'm glad I did. They make the workout more challenging. I enjoyed this enough to buy all the other TJ videos I could find used, if that tells you anything. So now I have Fat Blaster, Cardio Party 2 & 3, 3T, and Lower Body Jam. If you like Chalene, you'll love them all. I personally like trainers who are motivating and encouraging, not the mean ones. Chalene is upbeat, fun, and silly. She seems to loosen up even more as the series goes on, I don't know if she got more comfortable or was just given more freedom from being scripted - I assume the latter. I still hope to someday try Turbo Fire, but for right now, I'm just enjoying Turbo Jam.A few notes to anyone who is wary of trying this: don't try this if you don't like learning routines. To me, learning the routines at first might be a little confusing. After you learn them, you really feel like "owning" the workout. And yes, Chalene's cuing is a little off sometimes. She uses shorthand for some of the sets (like saying "Front knee!", meaning the set you learned that starts with front knee, then back kick, then jab and jab). She does also say go left when it's her left and your right occasionally, but hey, who wouldn't? She's doing much better at saying which direction the person watching her should go than I would be able to, I'm sure. I mean, she's doing the workout, showing you high impact and low impact, talking, smiling, cuing, she's not out of breath, and trying to say the opposite lead. That's not bad, in my book.One last thing: Be very careful to stay on the balls of your feet and turn your toe when you punch. This will keep your knees from getting sore. Mine were sore the first couple of times, and I started really paying attention to what I was doing with my feet. My knees improved immediately! Have fun!

I recieved the "maximum results" turbo jam package about 3 weeks ago. The workouts are really fun & the music is great (Way better than the music in any other workout videos I've done before.) Also, Chalene is really funny! The routines are easy enough that even someone new to working out can catch on quickly. Just do the "learn & burn" one first to get the hang of the moves. But don't be suprised if you have to stop & catch your breath alot at first. I still can't do the Cardo Party one all the way through with out stopping yet. FYI- I've also have "The Firm", which is a good workout as well & I've been mixing the two up a bit.I think the best advice I have is to order this from AMAZON! I know from experience that Beachbody & Firm Direct will try to rope into other contracts. Firm direct offered to send me some free coupons.. but I ended up enrolled in a "coupon club" that cost $30 a month! Also, their products can take up to 6 weeks or more to arrive. I recieved the Turbo Jam package from Amazon in 4 days, even though the the expected ship time was 10 -14 days I think.

Chalene is awesome and so are the others in this video series. I admit I have not been as faithful with the workouts as I should be but when I do get my lazy butt off the couch and pop in a video, I always have a great time. I especially enjoy the Cardio Party. It's the fastest and funnest 45 minutes of my day and I feel so good afterwards.If you are considering this product I highly recommend it and know that it will help me reach my fitness goals without the hassle of a gym membership.

I love them.So pretty,great quality...Work great...
