What is TurboFire?

TurboFire is a total-body cardio-conditioning workout program developed by Chalene Johnson in conjunction with Beachbody. Choreographed to upbeat music which motivates you to dial up your intensity levels, doing kickboxing drills and aerobic exercises mixed with dance moves in a class setting. The program comes with 12 classes on 10 DVDs and you will be exercising about 30 minutes a day.

Why is it effective?

It’s all about High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). HIIT burns up to 9x more fat and calories than traditional cardio. These HIIT moves are known as “Fire Drills.” Unlike traditional cardio, HIIT means working out at your max in up to 1-minute intervals. As a result, your body burns up to 9x more fat and calories. Even after you’re done with class, your body continues to burn calories for up to a 24-hour period. This means 4 minutes of HIIT can be more effective than 30 to 45 minutes on a treadmill or stair climber.

What makes TurboFire unique?

The music behind TurboFire makes this program unlike any other. Chalene has custom-designed the best beats so each move is perfectly choreographed. Music is a major motivator. It’s what gets you to pump your arms harder and kick your legs higher so you get the best workout from every class, and you look forward to your classes every time.

What type of equipment do I need?

The TurboFire base kit comes with the Lower Body Band. Several classes require dumbbells or resistance bands.
