So as i meantioned i gained a few pounds…. so what? i’m gonna get them off…but after that…. it seems as though that i’ve plateaued! you’re body plateaus just about every 4 weeks. It gets used to specific activity that you do and then your caloric burn seems to taper of and then a plateau occurs.
Time to switch things up!
By switching up your work outs you’re able to break plateaus and keep your body guessing of what kind of work out its going to get next!
I’m a gym person these days (i never was before) so i spend 100% of my workouts at the gym or playing basketball twice a week. Working out at home i am never motivated. I noticed that my turbo kick instructor started to get so lean and cut and was losing weight after already having an amazing body. i asked her what her secret was…she told me ChaLEAN Extreme!
Now Chalene Johnson is the creator of my favorite workout, Turbo Kick. So i knew buying her DVDs and seeing the results of my instructor i wouldn’t be disappointed. ChaLEAN Extreme is a total body workout based on weight lifting and gaining lean muscle because MUSCLE BURNS FAT! Its like the P90X for women!
Chalene teaches you the proper form and technique for the resistance moves you’ll be doing in the program, whether you’re using weights or bands.
PHASE 1: BURN You start lifting weights to jump-start your metabolism and break down those “extra” reserves of fat. In these moderate training workouts, you’ll work your upper body then lower body, and learn how Lean Phasing will help you see major results every 30 days!
PHASE 2: PUSH Chalene shows you how to lift heavy—beyond your comfort zone—so you build the muscle you need to burn fat. Chalene makes it easier than it sounds with incredibly fast results.
PHASE 3: LEAN Here is where you really bring it home with new routines and dynamic moves that literally melt the fat off your body. You will be blown away with jaw-dropping results and rewarded with a brand-new body!
During each phase, Chalene ignites your metabolism with super-intense cardio and strength-training routines, and then rejuvenates and lengthens your hard-working muscles with an invigorating flexibility workout.
I just started so i’m in the BURN phase week 2… its a great workout and i can’t wait to see the results!!! I also purchased INSANITY by Shaut T… i haven’t tried it yet so details of that workout will follow shortly!
