Getting Started with ChaLEAN Extreme
18 Comments
So, you’ve decided to get the system and take a huge step towards a leaner, sexier you. Whether you are waiting for it to arrive or sitting with the box in front of you, taking those first steps towards starting the program can be exciting. ChaLEAN Extreme comes with everything you need to get started and the guidance you need to do it right.
Say “Cheese!” and take your measurements
Tracking your progress is a huge motivator. Realize that after the first 30 days on this program you will see significant changes in how your clothes fit and how you feel. Seeing photos side-by-side of where you are compared with where you were is a lot of fun and adds fuel to your fitness motivation. In the ChaLEAN Extreme Muscle Burns Fat guidebook you are shown how to take the photos and accurately take your measurements.
Take the “Fit Test”
Knowing what you can do is an indicator of your readiness for an intense program like this. These few moves will also give you a chance to measure your progress as the program continues.
Watch Burn Basics
Burn Basics is the introductory DVD to the ChaLEAN Extreme program. This is where Chalene will give you exactly what you need to get through the program with maximum results and zero injuries. Good form is vital when lifting heavy weights and this 22 minute guide will ensure you know exactly what to do.
Check Out “Muscle Burns Fat” and the “Fat-Burning Food Guide”
Get up to speed on how the ChaLEAN Extreme program works and the best foods to fuel your body with these two full-color and vibrant books.

Following the Body Makeover Calendars included in the guidebook, get going with the first phase in the ChaLEAN Extreme program, the Burn Phase.

Hello Cassie,
Each workout is about 30-45 minutes with the exception of the core workout, which is 22 minutes long.

Hi Lindsey,
You always need some kind of resistance such as the resistance bands you’ll find on the website.

Hi,
my boyfriend just ordered the program for me. It looks very promising so far but my only problem i haven’t got Body Makeover Calendars in my guidebook. I went through the book hundred times so far, definetely not in there. It is so frustrating because without that basicely so hard to guess what to do. I don’t know where to start or what to do with those workouts now.
I have ordered from England so i am stuck don’t know what to do?
Any help? Please…
Thanks
Hi Yasmin,

im totally intwerested in this program after being referred to it by a dancer, but i have one question, what equipment do you need to do with this program, would i need to join a gym?
Hello Lisa,
you do not need to join a gym. You do need however either dumbbells or resistance bands.

I am interested in getting fit and loosing weight. I would like to loose 80-90lbs and am not in shape at all…I have battled with my weight all my life am 41years old, no health problems YET. What would be the best program that you offer for me if any?
I am in the same boat as Jasmin, I have the DVD’s but no body makeover calendars. I need to know how often to do each circuit and when if any cardio. Can you email the caledar?? Please help.

Hi Jen,
I would start with a program that is lower on the intensity levels. P90X and ChaLEAN Extreme might be too tough at this point. Good starter programs are the Power 90 if you like the idea of the P90X. It’s similar, but not as intense. If you are interested in a more cardio based program, try Turbo Jam. If time is a concern, you can try Power Half Hour or 10 Minute trainer.
Good Luck!

Heather,
I do not have the calendars in PDF format. If you contact customer service, they can give you the information you would need if you wanted to purchase a guide.

Sounds like a pretty common problem: I just received my package from Ebay, and there is everything but the body makeover calendar. I checked the page # you recommended, but my muscle burns fat guidebook doesn’t have any page #s, and doesn’t even have 34 pages. I don’t feel like ordering it, as the system was pricey enough.
Any advice how to get it,
Thanks,
Mindy

this will show u the complete body makeover calender!
Glad I found it cuz it didn’t come with my package either.
What does your comment is awaiting moderation mean? I provided a link to the free body makeover calender but it hasn’t posted. Guess they want y’all to buy it! Just goggle, cha lean body makeover calender and you will find it.
Sherry,
it’s a link monitoring system so people can’t post any crazy link to what ever on this blog (even though sometimes they still get through). I see your post with the link went through. This will be helpful to those who are missing the calendar. I have to warn everyone that when you buy from ebay, you might NOT get any of the necessary guides. There has been a ton of people that come to this blog that I redirect to customer service because they bought from ebay and the programs didn’t come with the guides. These guides are necessary to have since the workouts are usually done in a certain order.
