The intensity of the moves comes from the heaviness of your weights—so if you're just starting your fitness journey, you can do the same moves with lighter weights. If you're a fitness veteran looking for a challenge, select heavier weights—the choice is yours.
As far as equipment needed for the program, I recommend a set of adjustable weights such as SelectTech. I don't own these Instead what I own is an assortment of hand weights, in sizes from 3 lbs up to 30!!
I've invested a lot of money in these, they take up a lot of space in my workout room, and frankly I wish I'd just gone with the adjustable ones in the first place. You also can use resistance bands, and the videos include a modifier demonstrating how to use the resistance bands for each and every move.
You'll still want an assortment of resistance levels for easier and harder moves, and moves that work big strong muscles in your body versus smaller muscles that can't lift as much.
Other than that, the only equipment you'll need is a sculpting band also called thigh toner , which goes around your ankles for some of the sculpting moves such as leg lifts.
The program consists of three lifting sessions per week and two rest days per week. The program also comes with two cardio workouts, two ab workouts, and an active stretching session; you receive a workout calendar showing you how to allocate these sessions each week. If you have access to the program through Beachbody on Demand, you also have access to the deluxe kit, which includes four additional cardio workouts, two additional ab workouts, and a yoga session. One of these workouts uses a stability ball for every move and it's super fun—so you may want to invest in that piece of equipment too!
I am going to be following this calendar starting next week! I am wondering, i had bought the charlean extream, I need help on eating healthy, is there a diet plan or something.
It should have come with a nutrition guide. Did you receive one? Have you started the workout yet? If so, what do you think of it so far? Hey there. Your email address will not be published.

Before meeting Kim and Kalee, I was struggling with my fitness goals. Before working with Kim and Kalee, I felt guarded sharing my fitness journey and doubted my abilities as a coach.
They have offered so many amazing training opportunities which have helped me step out of my comfort zone and build my confidence as a leader. Kim and Kalee Sorey are absolutely awesome! They gave me the confidence to become a coach and have been valuable mentors ever since. I have been a loyal reader of dear Gina for the last year and a half, and I am proud embarrassed? While Gina and I may have some pretty drastically differing views when it comes to food, she likes her proteins and fats, where I am a dedicated fruit muncher, there is one thing we most certainly see eye to eye on, and that is that fitness is so important for your physical and mental health, and that Chalene Jonhson is our workout hero.
Which leads me to my reason for being here. These programs are focused primarily on cardiovascular exercise, with little attention given to weight training. Chalean Extreme on the other hand, focuses almost exclusively on weight training. This is due to the concept that muscle burns fat, increases your metabolism and makes you look leaner.
Meaning you really could not do another rep after that last rep All these phases come with a guide book so that you can track your weight progress as you get stronger. I was doing 80 pounds squats in this month, just to give you an idea. These consist of minutes of high intensity cardiovascular training, followed by minutes of muscle endurance work. Here she will have you lift very light weights for many repetitions. This is awesome because it means that you are burning more calories with each movement, building more muscle with each movement, and it cuts your workout time way down.
The truth is that woman have far too little testosterone to bulk up the way that men do. You are either lifting heavy enough to build muscle, which is what you want, or you are not. Simple as pie. It really does something wonderful for your brain, like you can do anything you want! I suggest getting resistance bands for this she offers resistance band modifications for every move. They are less costly and can be used for longer before you need to up the ante, so to speak. Make sure that you are really paying attention to her form cues, as well as looking at yourself in the mirror every once in a while to make sure you are staying on point.
I hope you are inspired to check out this work out program. You will burn more calories in a day, even at rest, as well as just feeling and looking awesome! More Beachbody reviews:.

Chalean Extreme is designed to give you visible results in only 30 days. So many times women have the miscon-ception that lifting weights will make you bigger vs smaller. The resistance training in Chalean Extreme will allow you to burn calories even while you are resting. Whereas doing cardio only, limits the caloric burn simply to the time you are actually doing the cardio. We want to work smarter not harder, right?
