After months of anticipation, ChaLEAN Extreme has officially arrived on the scene. A brand new, highly effective, and seriously intense system, ChaLEAN Extreme will transform your body and your life. With this new program, you will burn fat, build muscle, and create the body you have always wanted. Chalene Johnson created a following with the Turbo Jam program, motivating people and changing lives with her infectious positive attitude and serious fitness know-how. She is doing it again, Extreme-style, with ChaLEAN Extreme. Applying the basic principle that “Muscle Burns Fat”, she has created the ultimate in strength training-centered workout programs.
Because muscle does burn more calories than fat, the simple premise of this program is to seriously increase your strength, thereby ramping up your metabolism. Because muscle requires more fuel for survival, more muscle means a significantly higher metabolism. When you have more muscles, your body will be burning fat, even while you sleep. ChaLEAN Extreme capitalizes on this science to bring you the body of your dreams.
By switching the focus of this system from cardio to strength training, ChaLEAN Extreme burns fat from a more logical approach. Cardio fitness is important and does burn calories, but only increased muscle will increase your metabolism and have your body burning fat even when at rest.
ChaLEAN Extreme shatters a common misconception that lifting heavier weights will bulk you up. Lifting heavier weights does build muscle, but you are not going to complete the ChaLEAN Extreme workout system looking bulky or wider. As a matter of fact, every woman in the test group who completed the program, lost inches and gained a long lean athletic form.
This is a no-fail system. If you follow the guidelines you WILL transform your body. Chalene created this program out of what works for her in her personal life. She knows that not all of us have the metabolism of a teenage athlete, but works with ChaLEAN Extreme to ensure we have a fat-burning, hard working metabolism, leading to a transformed physique and better quality of life.

I am 52, 50 lbs overweight, diabetic, have osteoarthritis on my back. My daughter has encouraged me to try these exercises. I worry about any possible damage to my back with the squats and lunges. I did get the okay from my doctor to exercise. I went from being sedentary to lifting weights and it seems too extreme a start for me. Am I wrong?

Hi Vikki,
Probably not. Listen to your body. Working out with back issues can be tricky. Especially heavy weight lifting. You might want to try something more cardio based first. Check out the Turbo Jam at the following link:

Becareful with Turbo Jam and your back! There is a lot of twisting and bending and can cause problems with your back. Use Total Body Solutions for your lower back to strengthen. I notice a huge difference when I use this every other day…when I stop, I have more pain! Good luck!
