Turbo Jam is a fitness program that was created by fitness instructor Chalene Johnson. The program comes with five separate DVDs and a diet program. Following the program will help you burn fat and calories, and will also help you learn about the nutrition that your body needs to support your weight loss. The American Heart Association recommends 30 minutes of physical activity on most days of the week. Choose one DVD each day and you will meet this guideline. Always consult your physician before beginning any diet or fitness program.

Lose Weight with Turbo Jam

Step 1

Design your workout schedule. Choose the DVDs that you will perform each day based on your schedule. This ensures that you will have time to stick with your plan. On days when you are short on time, choose a shorter video. When you have more time, do the longer ones. The DVDs consist of kickboxing, body sculpting and dance. Most range from 20 to 50 minutes. Don't perform the same video on consecutive days. Try alternating between cardio and sculpting each day. You may add an abdominal DVD on days when you do only the cardio video. Take one day off each week to rest and allow your body to recover from the exercise performed during the week.

Step 2

Follow the diet plan. Turbo Jam arrives with a diet program. According to the makers of Turbo Jam, following the diet plan along with the exercise program can help you lose up to ten inches by the time you finish your first ten workouts. The diet plan comes with a shopping list and a recipe book. This will help to simplify the diet plan for you so that you are more likely to stay on track. All recipes are simple to prepare, and don't require long cooking times. The meal plan will help you lose weight and make permanent changes to your lifestyle so that you can keep the weight off.

Step 3

Track your progress. This is important to keep you on track until you reach your weight loss goal. Record all of your food intake in your food journal. You should also record your workouts each day in this journal. When you order the Turbo Jam program, you will receive a measuring tape and a tracking card. Use this to keep track of your measurements every week. You can also record this in your food journal to provide motivation as you work toward your goal. When you do reach your goal, celebrate your achievements and be proud of your accomplishments.
