Chalene Johnson's New 90-day Phased Workout Called ChaLEAN Extreme
Chalene Johnson is about to release what could be her most popular workout video to date. The Chalean Extreme Workout Routine set to soon hit the market promises to be the most effective program to quickly get you into great shape. Fitness buffs know about Johnson's high energy, fat burning workouts and anticipate that Chalene will deliver what she promised.Just how does it work?
The ChaLean Extreme Workout Routine is designed to build lean muscle mass, tone problem areas and turn the body into a fat-burning furnace. To burn calories while your sleep is a dieter's dream!
The 90-day workout is divided into three, 30-day phases; burn, push and lean. During the initial ‘burn' phase, Chalene focuses on mastery of the correct form of the moves. Proper execution leads to muscle failure in only 10-12 reps which is pretty impressive. During the ‘push' phase, the workout strenuously challenges specific areas beyond their current fitness level. The goal is to challenge the muscles' response to the ‘push' phase by shifting to a higher level of strength, range of motion and tone. The third and final ‘lean' phase builds on the fitness achieved by the other two levels. Again, Chalene targets specific moves to bring the entire body; lower, upper and core, to a new level of strength and fitness. After the 90-day program, the body has new strength and muscle tone which serve as a foundation for continued growth in fitness.
The body's new fitness resulting in more lean muscle mass has good side effects. More lean muscle helps to eclipse the plateau where it seems that weight loss comes to a halt. Belly fat doesn't stand a chance. Your core, arms and legs will burn fat because of the lean muscle built up during the three phase program.
We all know that when we reduce the number of calories consumed and increase our activity, weight loss can occur. The body finds the energy it needs by first using what is stored as glycogen and then fat. Having significant muscle mass allows one to burn calories. Muscle is the fat burning tissue. Men have more muscle mass than women and they burn more calories which makes it easier to lose extra pounds. The higher the muscle mass, the higher the basal metabolic rate (BMR). The basal metabolic rate or BMR refers to the number of calories burned at rest. The Chalean Extreme Workout Routine sets the stage for round-the-clock calorie burning.

This is great information. Thank you for sharing this. Very helpful explanation of wieght loss difference between woman and men.
What a great program! So many times people just focus on loosing weight - not getting fit. I think this is a great way to put a positive focus loosing weight and focus on getting healthy.
Interesting and informational. Great tips!
This is what I call a wealth of knowledge and I am glad you put it here. I am gonna bookmark this and come back later. Burn,Push and Lean seems like a new way to go with weight loss.
Sounds like an intense fitness plan!
Its very intresting fact to get a flat stomach.
Wow! that's truly an extreme workout. Great routine! maybe will try...
If I wanted to lose weight sleeping, I would just hibernate like a bear. One should eat properly and go to bed on time to manage your weight.
This sounds like an interesting program, but I've got to say the phrase "muscle failure" makes me extremely uncomfortable. Ack...
Sounds good. I'll believe it when I see documentation...
ok, has anyone heard when the real release date is for this workout. I'm anxious to get started
Chalean Extreme released 12/12/2008 so go to beachbody.com to order yours I ordered Friday and should have mine in by the 19th Great way to Jumpstart your New Year's Resolution
Does anybody know if there are any workout sheets for ChaLEAN Extreme?
Thank you
Any workout sheets? You mean like a booklet like what comes with the P90X?
Yes the Chalean Extreme workout comes with a workout book and another eating plan booklet. They explain everything in great detail and if you follow along with them, you can't get lost.
I got mine last week and started working out with ChaLEAN Extreme. It is worth the money... you get the toning band, the DVD's, a motivational Audio CD, workout book (tracker and information), and a Food Guide book lining up what you need to eat during each phase. It's been a week now and I feel great. My muscles ache which assures me its working and I have already lost 5 punds the first week. This is with eating what the plan suggests all the way to my caloric intake needs, 8 eight oz glasses of water a day or more, and the Burn Phase. I love this workout and can't wait to see the results after the first month. If you do this take pictures for before and after. It will motivate you seeing how much your body has changed in just a month.
I'm dying to get my hands on a copy of chaLEAN extreme but I live in the U.K,anybody know where I can get a copy from? I already tried beachbody.com but they don't ship to the uk,any ideas would be appreciated! Thanks
Dawn,
Amazon.com sells it for $199.00 they have new and used copies but i'm not sure if they ship to the UK either. No harm in checking. Someone on EBay might be selling it as well.
Ultimatefitnessgear.com ships to the UK. Its kinda spendy but its shipped via International Priority Mail.
Tiffany and ufgcom,thanks very much for your suggestions,I will check them out just now and let you know how I get on,thanks again!
Hi guys,tried ultimatefitnessgear.com and it would cost £114 in total incl shipping,very pricey and I just don't have that kind of money at the moment! Tried ebay too but all the listings I've seen only post to the u.s. Thanks for your suggestions though,in the meantime I think I'll just have to wait until it hits the u.k and continue with my turbo jam workouts instead!!!
I LOVED the Turbo Jam series. It is fun, had great music, and slimming results. I looked forward to doing it everyday. I tried the chalean extreme and was very disappointed. Its slow, boring, and the music sucks. Its methodology is identical to PX90 (lift heavy weights, do pushups, plyometric, and yoga). Turbo jam was unique, Chalean extreme is a copy (ie replace Tony insert Chalean). And as Chalean says "if its not fun, you wont do it." Even her energetic sister from the Turbo Jam series, looks bored and un-interested during these workouts... I suggest the Turbo Jam followers to look at Shaun T's dance party instead. While it is not as good at Turbo Jam, its a nice way to mix it up (note the hip-hop abs series also follows the tuck methodology to work the abs thru out the workout).
I have been doing this workout and can say its a great workout! Personally I did not like p90x, just because of how long and tough the workouts are.
The chalean extreme workouts are much shorter, between 30-45 minutes. Much easier in the aspect that you don't have to do tons of pull ups (which I hate) and you can still build muscle. Chalene Johnson does a great job leading these workouts. Lifting weights to build muscle which will lead to buring off fat and then losing weight is awesome! Its a process that takes time but I have noticed results.
I think this is a great workout because lifting weights is part of the problem why people have problems losing weight.. they just run or lose motivation and with chalean extreme, they take care of those problems.
Sara: They don't stress lifting heavy weights, but they do pushups, but nothing like what they did in P90X. Some of the workouts only do 3 pushups which is nice when you don't like doing them!
