I saw the best results when I did Turbo Jam 4-5 times a week and added cardio to the strength tapes.

An idea for this would be:

Monday and Wednesday - CP 1; CP 2; CP 3; Kick n Core
Tuesday and Thursday - Turbo Sculpt + 20 Minute; Booty Sculpt + Cardio Remix; 3T + Fat Blaster
Friday - Turbo Sculpt or a different workout - Yoga Booty Ballet, Hip Hop Abs, a walk, etc.

Regarding workout schedules--I do Learn and Burn + 20-minute workout one day, then Fat Blaster the next. I got Fat Blaster from eBay--it's great! I alternate like this and work out 5 times a week, and love this schedule! I have Cardio Party also, (the one that came with the package with Learn and Burn, etc.), but felt like it didn't do a lot for me.

U guys are going to kill me,I play indoor soccer 2 days a week ,is 5 jam sessions too much for me ?

RachelleS · 03-16-2007, 10:28 PM

Oh, I don't like your name bigfatbiatch - sorry - it just seems so negative - if you do two days of indoor soccer, I would count that as two workout days so I would only do 3-4 days of Turbo Jam but maybe on your days of soccer do a sculpting workout (Turbo Sculpt, Booty Sculpt, or 3T) then add two TJ cardio workouts on two separate days and on the 5th day do a cardio/sculpt combo.

Example:

Monday: Soccer and 3T
Tuesday: Cardio Party 1, 2 or 3
Wednesday: Kick Punch & Jam or Kick n Core
Thursday: Soccer and Turbo Sculpt
Friday: off
Saturday: Cardio Party Remix and Booty Sculpt or Total Body Sculpt
Sunday: walk or stretch workout

Good Luck! Rachelle

I did not mean any disrespect, how about little skinny sweety? I think that a sense of humour is key to weight loss ,just trying to see humour in myself.

I will now be known as Debbieduzturbojam

Ruthxxx · 03-17-2007, 02:31 PM

Several people have mentioned they dislike your name. Don't put yourself down!

If you want it changed, let me know via PM and I'll do it this afternoon. It will change on all your posts, by the way.

I also moved your tracker into your signature. It will now appear automatically in your posts.

Added: I just changed your name to Debbieduzturbojam as I have to go out for a while. Holler if that doesn't suit.

Debbie, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings or be disrespectful to YOU - I just felt that you were being disrespectful to yourself. In this journey of mine

, I am learning that our mind is a huge factor in our weightloss (or lack of)! I started my weightloss journey in October 2002 and was determined I was doing this without "dieting" - it was going to be an eating plan I could live with forever so I didn't lose then gain it all back once I stopped my "diet". Exercise has never been a problem with me - I've been doing it since I was a senior in high school. Fast forward to last spring, I went to a nurse practioner that blends traditional and holistic medicine - best thing I EVER did for myself. I was 190 pounds, I lost 20 pounds from May to July and I've been at a standstill since August - did a detox in January and lost 7 pounds (I go up 2-3 pounds depending on my day) and through my appointments, have figured out it is my mentality that is the reason for the stop. Our minds are such a powerful tool. I always joked about my pregnant stomach - I knew I had a stomach that looked pregnant and people would ask me when I was due - I didn't think of it as a bad way because it is the way it is - if you can't laugh then what else can you do but cry right? Those thoughts block the way. The more positive you can be, the better you will feel about yourself!!!! Seriously. I always thought that idea of saying a positive sentence you pick for yourself in the mirror every morning wouldn't do much - and I haven't done that yet - but it would be a good way to start my day! It is humor to you; and in your eyes, it is you accepting yourself for who you are - which is what we all need to do no matter what we weigh BUT it still has that negative tone to it. As far as the biatch - I can be a one myself without even trying it seems but if I called myself that name, I would be one ALL the time. Does that make sense?

I like your new name - it is your new intention!!!!! A good one. I have YET to find a workout that brings me as much joy as Turbo Jam!!!!!

Sorry so long and wordy - I am a talker in person can you tell???

Good point Debbie - I always thought of it as a title of a place, not thinking that the three were calling themselves that - so yeah, in that sense it is negative but at least they didn't add the biatch to it. I don't cringe at writing 3fatchicksdotcom as I did writing bigfatbiatch. It's your name and it is whatever YOU are comfortable with - if it bothers me so much, I don't have to write it when I post. I was getting a negative feeling from it but this is the internet - I'm sure if I met you in person, that wouldn't be the case at all. YOU KNOW YOURSELF better then anyone especially on a website!!!! I wasn't telling you to change your name. Once you start with Turbo Jam, you'll be changing it to the skinnybiatch in no time!!!!!

(note: I don't care for that name either BUT IT IS MY OPINION - doesn't mean I wouldn't like the person who is calling themselves that just that I don't like the name.)

You do what feels right to you and if that is the name that feels right - then call yourself whatever you please. Notice, I am not so creative when it comes to that!!!!!

Hi,

I recently bought the two turbo jam dvds that use the stability ball. Any suggestion as to which one to use first?

Is Chalene's cueing decent in these? I just tried Cardio Party Remix (the live one) and was lost through most of it!

Thanks!
Sherry

RachelleS · 03-21-2007, 06:10 PM

Kick N Core, my favorite, is a Turbo Jam workout and uses the ball at the end for toning. Total Body Blast is a interval circuit type workout. She has cardio for so many minutes and then it goes to ab/core for a few minutes.

Cardio Remix is a faster pace workout. Do you have the first set? They are a little slower paced so it's easier to get the moves before moving onto the faster pace ones.

Good luck. Rachelle

hi everyone! i am new to this site, but i think the support offered here is awesome! i already have the first 5 turbo jam work outs, but i was wanting to purchase the maximum results package. the prices on ebay get way more outrageous than the prices on beachbody.com, but i've heard they have horrible customer service. i am planning on ordering online, and i was wondering if that made a difference? can someone PLEASE answer my questions?! i am so excited about getting this new set, so i want to get it as fast as possible with as few problems as possible. can someone share their experiences or the experiences of others on bb.com? it would be greatly appreciated! thanks for the support guys!
