The latest program that I've completed is Chalean Extreme. It was totally different for me, because it was a weight lifting program instead of a crazy jumping bean program like I know and love. But I also loved this one. There is quite a bit of cardio in there as well so I don't feel like I was missing out on the jumping. The only issue that I had with this program is that several of the workouts are longer than 30 minutes. And my workout ADD sets in right around that 30 minute mark. After that, I'm just bored and done. But I had a great time with what my husband called "lifting heavy things up and putting them back down". And I will definitely mix pieces of this program into my workouts in the future.
So here are the results. Keeping in mind that I was in pretty good shape before this program, there are not any HUGE visible changes. But where I saw the most progress was leg definition (hard to see in the pictures, really), shoulders, biceps, and forearms (it takes a lot of grip strength to keep holding onto the heavy things). I've also really leaned up in the ab department, which is perfect for bikini season. :)
It is also clear that some other things have changed since I started this program. Duh, I obviously got highlights. :)
