I love the workouts! by Girald (NYC) 5 Stars
November 07, 2009
I love all the exercises, they are easy to follow and keep up with! I want to share it with everyone, I bought one for my sister and plan to buy for Christmas for my co-workers who workout or don't have time to. I hate aerobics, I usually get lost trying to follow all the fancy moves, but this is perfect, it has cardio, strength and abs. This gives you a great workout in 20 minutes! I love it!

She will shred you to pieces! by Paula (New York, USA) 5 Stars
November 06, 2009
I have been exercising on and off for years either at the gym or on my own. I did some cutbacks recently and gave up a few of my favorite things, among them my membership to Equinox, a 'state-of-the-art' gym. I decided to go ahead and buy some DVD's to workout at home. Since Jillian Michaels is 'the trainer of the moment', I bought her DVD's. Well, what a big surprise! Level One was tougher than I imagined. In this particular one she only uses light weights and the rest is just using the body. I consider myself an intermediate level and found it a bit challenging. Push ups, jumping jacks, and so on. She is just as tough on the DVD as in the TV show 'The Biggest Loser'. If you lack motivation I guarantee you will get it from her. If you never ever exercised before, this DVD is not for you. My recommendation is to review it first before actually doing it to know exactly what you will be doing and prepare mentally for it. I love it because I am driven and determined to do everything she says to get quick results. My motivation? Admiring the way she looks. If you just concentrate at her core while actually doing the exercises and envision yourself looking that toned, cut and buff, that is enough there to make you keep going. I highly recommended. I actually own the two other DVD's and they are just as good. Definitely not for the weak of mind.

GREAT jumpstart by CarrrmenJ 5 Stars
November 05, 2009
This is a GREAT jumpstart to getting in the habit of an exercise routine. For a bit of background, I am 5'5" and weigh(ed) 244lbs when I started two weeks ago. While I was an athlete and very active when I was younger, about 6 years ago I had a series of pretty serious accidents and injuries (several in cars and was crashed through a fence and rolled on by a horse) that put the screaming brakes on any kind of exercise for awhile. And let me tell you, when you're used to eating anything and everything in order to fuel an 8-12 hour day of working outside HARD...and then you keep eating like that when you're doing NOTHING...it's easy to pack on 60lbs almost overnight it seems. Then moving to work in a hospital (JUNK FOOD GALORE!!!!) in one of the fattest, most out of shape cities in the U.S. for the past 4 years has not helped. ANYWAY, I just wanted all the "beginners" to know where I'm coming from - haven't exercised regularly or hard (several false starts over the years) in 6 years and have 100+lbs to lose. The only regular exercise I do is walk my dogs for an hour a day. That being said, I found this ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE to do the first 3 days...I kept at it as much as I could, but I did take quite a few "5 second" breaks with water. However, by day 4 - YES!!!!!! I was shaking, and I was dying, and after it was over and I flopped on the floor I had 220lbs of worried dog all over me wondering if they were going to have to try and dial 911 :) As I am on week 2, I have lost 10lbs. The last 2 days I have done away with the "modifiers"...although I am somewhere between the two back-up girls intensities. I have not had any knee problems, and I work out in front of a mirror (yuck) to check my form...but I would think if you are someone who HAS an existing knee injury or other physical problem probably you should be under the supervision of a physical therapist and/or other medical professional instead of jumping around on your own and hurting yourself. As someone who came back from some pretty serious injuries I can say it's best to have the professionals there by your side. For those of you who don't have time - HA!!! This is 25 MINUTES...and if you really push, it does work. For myself I cut the a.m. dog walk to a half hour, come home after that and do this (so I don't get up any earlier), then have started walking the half hour to work (instead of a 20-25 min trolley ride), walking home another half hour, then take the dogs out for another half hour or so. So basically this DVD and adding an hour of walking a day (the new on foot commute) and eating well has lost me 10lbs in 2 weeks. Thank you Jillian for giving me something short enough to stick to every day for the first few weeks, and hard enough to kick some butt and feel changes FAST!!!! Here's to getting to Level 2!

Wonderful video by Cherri J. (USA) 5 Stars
November 05, 2009
This is an excellent workout video. Jillian has structured the workout so that it is good for anyone. It doesn't matter if you are just starting to work out or if you are an avid exercise fan .. there is a workout on this video to accommodate you! The description indicates there are 3 levels. However Jillian has 2 assistants with her on each level. One of the assistants does modified movements for those just starting the level and the 2nd assistant does the full workout without any modifications. So you are actually getting instruction on 6 different levels. If you only buy one workout video .. but this one.

Best workout DVD I've tried by A. Parrott (San Diego, CA USA) 5 Stars
November 04, 2009
I ordered this DVD recently, and have been doing the workouts for a little over two weeks. I've already lost 6 pounds and I feel great. I like Jillian's no-nonsense attitude. I was walking 5-6 miles daily before I started this DVD and had lost some weight but not as much as I wanted. The first day I truly thought I was going to drop dead, but now I can do the advanced version of Level 1 and am progressing on Level 2. I switch between the two workouts so that it doesn't get boring. The only (minor) complaints are having to sit through the intro stuff every day and the terrible music. But what I do is start the DVD while I'm in the other room changing into my workout stuff, and by the time I come back the intros are done and I can just pick what I want from the menu. The music? Well, I could work out with the TV muted but I like hearing Jillian's encouragement so I just put up with it. Usually I'm working too hard to mind it, and only really notice at the beginning and the end. All in all, a small price to pay for such a great workout!
