This isn’t really the case with Turbo Jam. Usually with these exercise DVDs you only see the super-skinny, modelesque-type. Another reason why I liked Turbo Jam so much was that the fact that there was a nice variety of people actually taking part in the workout. I actually look forward to doing the routines, because of the music and Chalene’s positive and energetic instruction. What I liked: I didn’t really get bored with Turbo Jam.
This workout is a nice complement to any of the above routines and really works out your abs.īoth DVDs have a Special Features section which includes a bio on Chalene and the Turbo Jam concept, a section on getting to know the cast (other exercisers) of all the workouts, and a cute parody of MTV’s Punk’d called Jam’d where Chalene plays a couple of tricks on her fellow cast members. The “turbo tuck” is stressed, and Chalene is sure to keep you on your toes so that you keep the correct position. Out of all the moves in this workout, the speed-bag into the uppercut (done to LL Cool J’s “Mama Said Knock You Out”) is at the top of my list–really makes you feel like dancing!Īb Jam – The focus of this routine is, like the title says, your abs. Chalene make sure to warm up with all the movements at the beginning of the routine, and clearly tells you how each movement is supposed to be executed and how it will help you with your health and fitness. Not only is the music fun to work out to, but all the movements are varied and you really feel like you’ve accomplished something after the workout. Chalene makes sure to let you know the importance of doing strength training to boost your metabolism.Ĭardio Party – This is my favourite routine. But if you want to do it weight-free for a low-impact workout, there’s the option to follow along that way as well, and you still. If you want to feel the maximum effect you can use a couple of light weights (e.g. Turbo Sculpt – If your goal is to get nice and toned, this is the workout for you.
But I only watched this a couple of times, then I got the hang of it.Ģ0 Minute Workout – A good routine to play if you’re running short on time and want to get a quick burn going. I thought this was a very well executed intro to all the moves to get beginners familiar with the techniques and proper form. These moves include the “pump”, “strike”, “row”, “turbo tuck”, “zig/zag”, “twist”, “W”, “7 Step”, “Capoeira Step”, “shake and shed” and the “wheel”. Learn & Burn – This part of the DVD provides a quick introduction (learn) and short workout (burn) of Chalene’s “Elite 11” moves used throughout the program. Punch, Kick and Jam – An advanced workout where you get to use the sculpting gloves. They didn’t offer these when I bought my package last year, but they look cool. Turbo Sculpting gloves – weights built-in to a glove that you wear during your routine to increase muscle activity. Turbo Slim rapid results program – an easy-to-follow meal plan and measurement tool to help you lose up to 10 inches in just 10 workouts I also found the Eating Plan section a good read. A lot of healthy recipes inside for all meals, including smoothie. Turbo Results step-by-step guidebook – Chalene’s secrets to success, including her weight loss meal plan, daily workout calendar, and dining out guide. “Elite 11” flash cards – instructional cards that teach you the signature moves Two of these products are fitness DVDs: Turbo Jam and Hip Hop Abs. Sometimes this pastime has me buying products off infomercials I see on television. As you probably know from reading my blog, I’m a bit of a shop-a-holic.
