If you are looking for a miracle workout, this workout is just about as close as you can get. Here's my story!
I have struggled with my weight my entire life. All throughout middle school and high school I was teased pretty badly. But I was young, didn't care, loved food and wanted to have fun. After high school, I moved to southern California. I started going to the gym a little, but had no clue what I was doing. I had my first "serious" boyfriend, and by "serious", I mean, my first boyfriend that lasted more than a couple months. He was a loser and one day told me that his co-workers told him that they thought he would be dating someone "fitter". I cried for a couple days and then realized they were right. I started going to the gym more, lost a few pounds and got rid of that jerk!
Then I met my now husband. Things got serious and comfortable and I let myself fall back into old, unhealthy habits. I got up to my heaviest at that point, right before he deployed to Iraq. While he was gone, I knew I wanted to make changes and knock his socks off with a new bod when he got home. I worked out religiously, 5 days a week for about 2 hours a day. TONS of cardio and some weights. I lost 30lbs and by the time he came back, was the lightest I had every been, including in high school (probably even middle school). We got engaged shortly after he returned, I graduated from college a few months later, we got married and moved across the country, all in a months time. Then a few months after we moved I got pregnant. We welcomed our baby girl into the world on June 11, 2009. I struggled with the weight I had gained and even more with postpartum depression. I let myself fall into a deep rut of unhealthy habits again, and instead of losing the baby weight, I gained more weight. I also struggled with severe health issues that included a years worth of invasive testing and surgery. Finally in early 2010, a good friend of mine introduced my husband and I to Beachbody. We started doing Insanity and completed the 60 day program. I definitely saw changes in my body, but also felt changes in my joints from all the jumping. Although I love Insanity and Shaun T's amazing personality, it just wasn't the workout for my body. Thats when I found Turbo Fire, and I like to say the rest is history!
It is safe to say that Turbo Fire changed my life! I almost gave up when I first tried it because of its heavily choreographed dance moves, but I stuck with it and am so glad that I did. The moves became second nature to me, and instead of a workout, it just feels like a good time. The pounds started pouring off and I was seeing muscles I had never seen before. I will tell you, I have never followed the nutrition guide and the first few rounds, I did not eat the best, but I still lost weight. I call Turbo Fire my miracle workout and anyone I have the chance to talk to about it, I do. Not only do I love this 90 day program (and believe me, it goes by fast), I love Chalene Johnson! She is motivating, inspiring, funny and real. Most recently, I decided along with Turbo Fire, I would also incorporate heavy lifting into my workout routine. I do Turbo Fire 2 days a week and heavy lifting 2 days a week. Sure I could workout every day, for several hours a day like I used it, but why? The results I have seen doing it this way, and cleaning up my eating have blown me away! If you are on the fence about this program, there is no doubt in my mind that if you stay committed to it, your results will also blow your mind! I often see ladies ask if Turbo Fire is worth the money. YES, YES, YES! I am honestly surprised my DVD's are still working. I am on my 8th round of Turbo Fire right now and I have gotten every penny's worth out of this program and then some! I truly believe it saved my life, and that, you can't put a price on.
Here are my results from an unhealthy teenager, to being my lowest weight but with tons of cardio, to post baby, and now! Let the results speak for themselves! I am a 31 year old mother, who despite my struggles along the way, am in the best shape of my life and I credit Turbo Fire for that!
