TurboFire 5 Day Inferno Plan Review and Results
I completed my 5 Day Turbo Fire Inferno Plan yesterday. I think TurboFire is fast becoming my favorite Beachbody workout in my home fitness dvd collection. The Inferno week was a little bit of a shock to my sytstem though because I am not used to doing a long cardio class. It has been a while since I have done endurance marathons such as those in P90X. I remembered what Tony Horton would say (do your best and forget the rest) and pushed myself a little bit more each time as my girl Chalene Johnson says.
I followed the Inferno Meal Plan almost exactly. I would recommend following the menus already in the meal planner so all you have to do is a little shopping the week before. Then, you won’t have to worry about counting calories while you are trying to get used to recording goals, meals, and activities in your tracker and learning new routines.
TurboFire is not as “dancy” as Turbo Jam, but Chalene does incorporate her classic Elite 11 from TurboJam. You will definitely see the Pump, Zig/Zag, Twist, Capoeira, Wheel, and 7 Step. If you are familiar with Turbo Jam, you will recognize these moves right away. If you are not familiar with Turbo Jam, not a problem. Watch the “new in class” segment before trying a new workout. This is where you can learn the moves slowly before pumping up the music and intensity.
If you have experienced Chalene in ChaLean Extreme, you will have a slight feel for some of her other moves, especially the ones in the fire drills. Like Turbo Jam and ChaLean Extreme, you will be kicking, punching, and letting loose. Just remember to dance like know one’s watching…this is your workout!
So, here I am at the end of my Inferno Plan. It was not an easy week. As I look ahead to the TurboFire class schedule, I do not see any days that look as tough as the Fire45/HIIT 20/Stretch 10 line up from the “get hot for the weekend” plan! That is encouraging in a way. I feel confident that I can do this program and push myself a little harder now.
I started with a body fat percentage of 22.5% and a weight of 150. At the end of the Inferno Plan, I have lost 1.5 pounds. I am happy with that small amount because my goal is to take off twenty pounds, losing one pound per week. I gained a lot of muscle from ChaLean Extreme and am now trying to lean out. I would like to see more of that hard earned muscle! lol
I am taking a break from working out over the weekend. I started a Shakeology cleanse to make sure my body is ready for the next twenty weeks of Chalene’s classes. The Shakeology cleanse can be done for one to three days. Since the calories are kind of low and I just finished a week of 1200 calories per day, I think I will only do the cleanse Saturday and Sunday. This will allow me to start taking in the additional calories I need to support TurboFire classes which average a burn of 650 calories per class.
I am starting my TurboFire training on Monday, July 5th. You can join me if you already have your Turbo Fire or order Turbo Fire and jump in with me anytime. Once you get your TurboFire, make sure you review all the materials before starting and take your before pictures and measurements. It is really cool to see the results of your discipline over time.
