      Turbo Jam's Chalene Johnson packs each workout with calorie-blasting kickboxing, body sculpting, and the hottest dance music. Last year over 1 million people chose Turbo Jam to get the body of their dreams... and now Turbo Jam has been supercharged so you can burn fat and calories to see results faster than ever!

      It's fast. It's fun. It works.

      A recent university study showed that you can burn over 700 calories in just one 45-minute Turbo Jam workout. That's nearly twice as effective as walking, jogging, yoga/Pilates, and even circuit training! By adding Chalene's Turbo Sculpting Gloves, you'll supercharge your workout and activate 96% more muscle activity than with Turbo Jam alone!

       

      The secret is Chalene's "Elite 11" signature moves—proven to burn fat and give you a sleek, sexy body and ripped, rock-hard abs. Her incredible moves target your core and abs and guarantee you get serious turbocharged results! Inspired by dance and martial arts moves, each one targets a specific muscle group or body part to strengthen and sculpt your physique and promote overall balance and core strength. The moves are fun, effective, and they really work!

      Nice exciting stuff imdoggz, I was wondering if you could provide a link to some information regarding that university study, I have been unable to find it. I am interested in checking this out as well as understanding how, from an empirical perspective; turbo sculpting gloves actually activate 96% more muscle activity? How is a single product or workout routine capable of such a staggering figure?

      Thanks for the link IMdoggz, and I'd be more than grateful for any further info you happen to come upon as to the college studies. From all I have read and seen so far I don't doubt the validity of the workout and its effectiveness, I just want to see some of the actual data or at least get an idea of how the studies were conducted etc. The claims made from a health sciences perspective are fairly extreme and if the claims made about how this workout effects the body are true from a physiological perspective, then something like this would change the entire fitness world. Most countries in the modern world have all employed various forms of boot camp, which has been the standard for pushing the limits of fitness. If this workout really does produce those kinds of calorie burning figures, it would replace a portion of those routines as fast as governments could test and implement them. What I find most appealing of all, is that this workout system has a reputation of being unforgiving, and it gains a bit of authenticity in the sense that it does not share the "gimmicky" feel that many diet and fitness products share. To lose weight, grow muscle, and increase fitness, it takes effort, and the willingness to live a different way. With the exception of the gloves (why not just hold a set of light dumbbells?), I do see a great deal of potential here, and I would like to see any and all validity of this product come to fruition.

      yes.. ill give one of the testimonies of what they said 700+ calories in 45 min...

       

      LOVE this workout!
      I will be the first to admit that 700+ calories per workout sounds unrealistic. Obviously there are a number of factors which impact the total number of calories you might burn during any workout. Having said all of the above, I will say that two days ago I went through a 53 minute turbo workout and did in fact burn 721 calories. I was working HARD. My HRM said that my average HR was 160 (max is 185). Pretty good for a home video program - much better than what I've experienced with The FIRM and Cathe. Not knocking those programs because they rock in their own right...but please don't dismiss TJ as a fad (or penalize it because of its association with BeachBody - get your videos from ebay if you're worried). It REALLY does burn the calories! 

       

      heres the link of this testimony :)

      ill get back with more testimonies regarding this 700 in 45min cal :)

      hoping i could find the university study:)

      by the way, i would like also to add this.. the advantage and disadvantage of turbo jam...

      i got this from a review to a certain site.. :)

      Advantages

      • The Turbo Jam fitness program involves regular exercise routines.
      • There is a program demo available on the official website.
      • Turbo Jam can be easily and conveniently purchased through the official website.

      Disadvantages

      • The official website states that Turbo Jam should not be started without a consultation with a physician.
      • There are no fat burning supplements offered with the Turbo Jam weight reduction program.
      • Turbo Jam involves a fairly significant lifestyle change in regards to regular exercise regimes.
      • The official Turbo Jam website is set up more like a massive ad or infomercial than an information source.
      • If you haven’t seen success following exercise programs in the past, Turbo Jam alone may not have much different to offer you.
