Turbo Jam Workout

Valley Girl Fitness holding Maricopa boot camp

Trisha Goldscharek moved here from Kona, Hawaii, two years ago and has been on a personal mission to bring a healthy lifestyle and fitness program to the residents of Maricopa. Her mission comes from her own struggles with weight.

“I have always been interested in health and fitness throughout my life; however, I struggled with my weight during my 30s,”said Goldscharek. “About six years ago I ordered a home workout called Turbo Jam from an infomercial. I instantly felt like Chalene Johnson was right there in my living room working out with me. She made the workouts fun because of her high energy, and she had great music in her videos. After finishing the Turbo Jam program, I ordered her next series, Chalene Extreme. This program was really the turning point in my personal fitness. After 90 days I had gained enough confidence to get started on my career in fitness.”

After realizing her own physical and mental metamorphosis, Goldscharek began her own work-out routines in the family room with a group of friends. And, since then, has become certified in two of Johnson’s formats, Turbo Jam and PiYo. Her other credentials include ISSA Certified Fitness Trainer, AFAA Group Fitness Instructor, Zumba Gold and Aqua Zumba Instructor and Certified Silver Sneakers Instructor. She is also a Team Beachbody Coach for programs like P90X and Insanity.

Goldscharek started Valley Girl Fitness and currently is holding classes at the clubhouse in The Villages at Rancho El Dorado. She holds her boot camp in the subdivision park next to Butterfield Elementary School. As a personal trainer, she also works with people at their homes or offices.

“There are a lot of people who don’t feel secure with themselves and don’t want to work out in front of others,” said Goldscharek, “I understand that feeling, and I am there to help them get past that point. I was on the weight roller coaster for years, and it took some time before I felt comfortable with myself. Especially as a woman, there is a feeling you are being judged on purely physical appearance, even in a room full of other women. Everyone has different goals, and the important thing is to support them individually.”

“I think a group setting is great in pushing people to the highest level; to see the person next to you working, it only adds motivation,” Goldscharek said. “Not to mention, in the group setting, we have that group sense of accomplishment. That’s a great feeling.

Turbo Jam - Best In Home Workouts is coming soon

Do you find it difficult to lose weight because you dread going to the gym? Are you sick and tired of all of the monotonous exercise programs out there being marketed as the hot new thing? So was Chalene Johnson, and that’s why she originally created the Turbo Jam workout. You see, the whole focus of Turbo Jam is to give you the ability to work out at home, without berating the experience in advance.

I mean, how can you ever hope to lose weight if every single one of your workouts is a chore? Inevitably, you’re always going to reach that point where you just get tired of it… When that happens you usually quit. Right? Doesn’t that sound about accurate?

But Chalene wanted something more. Why should working out be difficult, and why should you have to pay an arm and a leg to have the privelage of expert fitness advice from a gym? It just doesn’t add up and it’s not fair to those of us willing to work for a good body, but without the knowledge to do so, or the money to pay someone else to teach us?

Priced at a point that you won’t beat elsewhere ($60 total), the Turbo Jam workout routines are actually a pleasure to work through. This introductory program is designed for those with little to no prior experience in the fitness world – If you need help learning and working through even ‘basic’ movements, then the Turbo Jam course is a great place for you to start.

In fact, this is the main difference between Turbo Jam and Turbo Fire…Turbo Fire is an advanced course for men and women who already have an exercise base to work from, or who otherwise have experience working out. Most newbies will find Turbo Fire much too difficult.

If you’re fitness goal is over 100 lbs away, then Turbo Jam will also make a good fit for you because it gives you an extra stepping stone to work through on your journey. Trust me, the bigger your goals, the more it will help you to chunk them out and take baby steps. Turbo Jam is all the baby steps rolled into one complete package, after you’ve ‘graduated’ you’ll be ready to play with the big boys and girls, so to speak.

However, don’t feel like you HAVE to move on from Turbo Jam…Many men and women are perfectly content to work through the program over and over again. Why? Because it really is a lot of fun, and as a result has a veritable butt ton of repeat value.
