Hello friends

I am really kicking everything into high gear and want you to get involved as soon as you can. Of course you need to make sure you are ready before anything so I invite you to take action and listen in on a call.

Just sit back and listen in, you don't have to talk - Just learn.

If you decide that you are ready for something new in your life. If you are ready to take action and get involved. If you are ready to be free and share your motivation, energy, and power with others. Join me.

I will teach you everything I know when it comes to marketing, you just have to be ready to accept this challenge.

• Are you willing to work and share yourself with others?

• Can you turn your passion of fitness into your daily life?

• Are you ready to be an Entrepreneur and be free?

"Share with an Open Mind and love with an Open Heart."

- Jason

Together we will reach the stars and fly to the end of the universe.

Today is a different message, I am not going to talk about ChaLEAN Extreme or P90X - I watched a video by Jonathan Budd who is a very successful young guy. Not just financially but in his spirit. I was truly motivated by his message and wanted to share it with others.

This is his video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYr8TBMJbZk

As usual I got talking because I am very passionate about life and the energies around us. I in no way consider myself an expert because every day is a growing experience. You can learn from anything and everything if you live with an open mind. A blossoming flower to an outwardly appearing "dead" leaf - Everything has a lesson to teach if you leave yourself open for the lesson.

Be free of your mind and your wasteful thoughts - We all live a constant dialogue in our own minds. Through practice and consciousness you can learn to control and quiet the wasteful thoughts and channel this energy in ways you never imagined.

Be Free.

You read the title right - I was really starting to miss P90X in my life so I did something crazy. I started P90X Round 2 {Day 1} on ChaLEAN Extreme Round 1 {Day 22}! I actually found that each program goes hand in hand when placed next to each other. Granted I am nearly 1/3 of the way through ChaLEAN, but that's OK.

I won't actually complete a full run through P90X Round 2 because I plan to start a dedicated "P90X Reloaded" phase after ChaLEAN. Setup kind of like the ChaLEAN Team Xtreme Skype Group we have going but for P90X. I'll explain more in coming months so you can get involved!

This is what my new Routine looks like without looking at the P90X Rest week. Keep in mind I am doing P90X "Classic". Also, I am spreading out my P90X workouts and ChaLEAN Extreme workouts by at least 2 hours in the day.

• Day 1: P90X Chest and Back - Ab Ripper X - ChaLEAN Burn Circuit One
• Day 2: P90X Plyometrics - ChaLEAN "Day Off"
• Day 3: P90X Shoulders and Arms - Ab Ripper X - ChaLEAN Burn Circuit Two
• Day 4: P90X Yoga X - ChaLEAN Burn Intervals - ChaLEAN Ab Burner
• Day 5: P90X Legs and Back - Ab Ripper X - ChaLEAN Burn Circuit Three
• Day 6: P90X Kenpo X - ChaLEAN Burn it Off - Recharge
• Day 7: REST!

I was going to do a ChaLEAN Extreme Day 20 Update but I decided it couldn't wait - So here is my Day 19 Update :)

Things have still been flowing pretty smooth with ChaLEAN - I have really cracked down on the forms and learned to maximize each move. I also cranked my weight ahead on my Select Techs for each position at least 2.5 pounds up to 5 pounds on some. I definitely feel stronger in my back and shoulders and have noticed results mostly in my Deltoids.

I have not been very good at taking pictures as I have progressed through ChaLEAN - Not like P90X where I took pictures every day to every couple days. But in the same token I don't expect as much of a transformation as I have already completed P90X pre-ChaLEAN. The only thing that can change now is maybe a loss of 1% body fat and some bulk.

Don't get me wrong though, it will happen! Push phase is phase 2 of ChaLEAN focuses on slow, controlled, isolated reps of at least 6 and no more than 8.

Low reps like that means huge muscle burn and therefore some good mass as long as the diet accompanies. I will be adding calories probably in the range of 2500-3000 in Phase 2 - I will also focus directly on my Protein intake equally - no less than 140 grams and upwards to 175 grams.

** I complete my first Coaching Broadcast and everything went well - I had 5 Viewers and some great questions. I plan to make this a weekly thing to help educate anyone interested in Coaching all about the program. It's not my goal to sell anything but more to the fact to attract those who are really of the mindset for success. Those are the people that will automatically join without me having to sell anything. It's those motivated and driven people that I want on my team of Coaches - Alone we can try but Together we Will Succeed!
If you were one of the Viewers I thank you for participating and hope you learned everything you needed to know - If you still have questions don't hesitate to Contact me on the Contact Form of this Blog.

Hello there - Yet another day is complete in my ChaLEAN Extreme Journey. Today was Day Six which was comprised of a 30 minute Cardio Workout very Similar to Tony Horton's PlyoMetrics from P90X (PX90) though this is much shorter! You do a lot of jumping and fast paced movements but it really is a lot of fun! You work really hard and You will absolutely sweat but Chalene Keeps everything Interesting, Intense, and High Energy. I can't help but get pumped to workout every time I get to the main menu of each ChaLEAN Disk.

The Second part of Day 6 Involves a "ReCharge" 20 minute stretch video - This is very similar to P90X's Yoga though it is Much Much Much shorter and throws some variations on each move. It's a nice change of pace to do the shorter video though at the same time I am very happy to welcome Yoga back into my Fitness.

Flexibility and Center of One's Mind are very crucial components to a successful life - Not just in fitness but in Your entire life. Learn Your Boundaries but at the same time realize they are not limits but just Doors To Open!

My first day left me a little unsure as to my impression of ChaLEAN - Mainly due to the new moves and my lack of knowing the forms. I spent most of the time attempting to pull off each move without hurting myself more than effectively doing the workout. That was my first day - It Got Better though and now it's really coming together.

Once You learn the forms and understand the mechanics of each move it makes it much easier to maximize the effectiveness to achieve muscle burn. The Key is to lift heavy and Burn Early - Burn phase is all about conditioning and reaching complete muscle failure by 10 and no more than 12 reps. I am interesting in reaching the Push Phase which is the 30-60 day mark in the program. In "Push" it's all about lifting heavy enough to reach full muscle failure by 6 and no more than 8 reps! Low Reps mean A LOT more weight - Heavier weight = Increased Muscle Density and Strength.

It's true - "Muscle Burns Fat"!

I have completed my First Day of ChaLEAN Extreme and so far so good - It's a bit different than P90X (PX90) but it's a nice alternative. Learning the form was a little interesting and that will take another week or so - I am excited to see how the next 90 days unfold - Enjoy the video!

This is a quick after thought I posted in the Live ChaLEAN Xtreme Team Skype Group (Conact me if you want to get involved)

[3/19/2009 10:13:35 AM] Jason Croxford: I recommend you do about 5 minutes of stretching before actually pushing play
[3/19/2009 10:14:00 AM] Jason Croxford: ChaLEAN's stretches are ok but you may need time to get used to them before they are effective
[3/19/2009 10:14:15 AM] Jason Croxford: Otherwise, its great! Not very many moves and a quick video at that
[3/19/2009 10:14:35 AM] Jason Croxford: Tomorrow is an "off" day so I am just going to complete P90X Ab Ripper X

This will be short but I couldn't wait to post.

In just One Hour I will be starting my first day of ChaLEAN Extreme. I have been Eagerly awaiting the start of this program ever since I completed my First Round of P90X on March 8th, 09. It is going to be interesting to compare both programs and I wonder which will be my favorite. Right now I am absolutely in Love with P90X and everything that it does. I got some amazing results simply by bringing it nearly every single, I ate clean, and I stayed dedicated.

ChaLEAN Extreme is broken into Three Phases:

Burn
You lift no more than 10-12 Reps reaching a Burn in the last 2-3 Reps. The idea here is conditioning and getting ready for phase 2!

Push
Here is the real stuff - In Push you lift no more than 6-8 reps, You want to pick a weight that is heavy enough to give you that burn without exceeding 8 reps. This will really focus on those Type 2 Muscles and really help stimulate Muscle Fiber Growth!

Lean
In the "Lean" phase you return to 10-12 reps and focus more on Interval Cardio with Resistance training. This will really help burn off that fat now that you have built strong Lean Muscle in Phase 1 and Phase 2.

I will be updated later today after I complete Day 1 of ChaLEAN including a Video Log - Make sure to check back tonight!
