I don't know anything about JNL. I just wanted to add that CLX was really hard on my back. The compound moves lifting heavy weights were awkward. I enjoyed Chalene and liked the length of the workouts. I also didn't lean out in the rotation...I tend to build muscle quickly and didn't love the effect.

Let me know how you like that! I tried to combine JNL and DB but they are so different I found them hard to mesh/reconcile I ended up just focusing on DB, which I love (definitely way more than JNL haha)

Chalean Extreme is nothing like JNL. The goal in CLX is to use as much heavy weight as possible with good form. That being said you can't just start using heavy weights without prior conditioning so to speak. Just like how you would do aerobic base building for cardio capacity you do need a solid foundation in weights before you do CLX.

They are nothing alike but both very enjoyable. I have loved CLX for a long time but gave up heavy weights this past fall. If I decide to do a heavy lifting rotation again, and I probably will do an abbreviate don at some point, I would go straight to CLX. I just build muscle easily and too much heavy lifting just wasn't leading toward my preferred esthethic.
JNL Fusion is focused on timed intervals. You can choose to go heavier and move more slowly but, I feel like the format works best if you use light/medium weights and move on a faster count so you can get the cardio effect and fatigue the muscles. It is very similar to 21 Day Fix. I actually prefer 21 Day Fix because I love that she only does 2 rounds of each circuit, making the workout fly by. But, 21 Day is done in 60 second interval (for the most part) and can be killer for certain move (i.e. surrenders!). |
