If you and I were friends back in college than you know how much I love Chalene Johnson.  Her program Turbo Jam started my love of at-home fitness programs.  She's motivating, fun, and a skilled personal trainer.  Turbo Jam was a fun kickboxing workout set to Hip-Hop music.  I think the dancer and cheerleader in me loved that aspect of the workout.  Chalene has several programs, written various personal development books and travels around as a motivational speaker and entrepreneur.  PiYo is her latest and greatest achievement and it has stemmed from a lifetime of rigorous physical activity.  She said in recent speech that her body was "beat up" and that she was suffering from Injuries.  Creating PiYo was her solution.

It is remarkable combinations of of low impact moves and high intensity to improve your flexibility, stamina, and strength.  It is yoga and Pilates inspired but it performing the moves all together gives you a great cardio workout too.

You will see defined muscles and core strength without all of the jumping or lifting of weights. It is a perfect workout for anyone even if you have mobility problems, joint soreness or any past injuries that have created limitations.

This month I have organized a group to begin PiYo on Monday and I am currently looking for 5 more people to form another group starting on July 14th.  orders must be placed by July 7th so order this weekend.  Trust me after the fun holiday you will want to know that you have made arrangments to start PiYo with a group to hold you accountable. 

The following is taken from the Beachbody site:

Introducing PiYo, a high-intensity, low-impact workout for a new kind of STRONG.

Chalene Johnson took the very best Pilates- and yoga-inspired moves and cranked up the speed to give you full-throttle cardio, strength, and flexibility training—all at once. PiYo packs it ALL into each workout so you can build lean muscle mass—as you're burning crazy calories.

Now you can carve every inch of your body.

How? You'll use your body weight to perform a series of continuous, targeted moves, to burn fat as you redefine every single muscle. No weights. No jumps. Just hardcore results.

The result? Problem areas become no problem. You can get sleek, long arms; sexy, flat abs; a tight, lifted butt; and the confidence that comes from knowing you're at your best!

This is your chance to define exactly how you want to look—and how you want to feel. You're in control.

You have the power to define yourself.
Now use it.

"PiYo gives you hardcore definition, intense calorie burn, and allover strength—without weights, without jumps, and without destroying your body."

—Chalene Johnson, creator of PiYo

T25

 

The Brand spankin' new program that has everyone talking is T25.  Why? because you lose weight fast and you have time for it.  It's only 25 minutes long!  In a T25 Challenge group that started 3 weeks ago my friend Grace had lost 9 pounds already and my friend Stephanie says she is able to wear a pair of capri pants that haven't fit for the last 2 summers.  Beachbody just released a new infomercial about T25 so you may be seeing it on T.V. sometime soon.

 

 

Turbo Fire

 

Turbo Fire has been wildly popular for the last couple of years.  It's tough, fun and with the awesome trainer and motivator Chalene Johnson.  For the month of August a Turbo FIre Challenge pack is only $160.  That's the cheapest it has ever been and you get to try Shakeology for 30 days too.

 

 

 

Body Beast

 

This program is all about building muscle.  It is 90 days long and you can expect to gain around 10 pounds of muscle.  My husband Jack and I started Body Beast in June.  We did it faithfully for the first month and were blown away by our results.  I followed the "lean" program.  Weights are needed for Body Beast but you can still complete the program with minimal equipment.  I used only a stability ball, 5, 8, and 10 pound weights for the first month.  As I got stronger I started holding two weights at once in one hand.  Now I have heavier weights and a workout bench and I am ready to refocus and start again from the beginning.  I know that weight lifting seems a little out of my comfort zone but I really enjoyed these workouts and as I built muscle I burned fat faster.  Plus it was nice to be able to eat MORE food as long as I was eating healthy and clean.  I want to have a toned, strong body so I need to lift weight to achieve that.

 

Body Beast is only $160 for the month of August.  When I bought it in June it was $225!!  So this is a big savings and I look forward to having others join me.

 

 

 

All of these programs are going to help you get stronger and burn calories but Body Beast focuses more on building muscle by lifting weights.
