Good for experienced exercisers! by kc_sunshine101 (California) 4 Stars
November 20, 2009
Let me preface this review by saying that I am 29 and have worked out semi-regularly since I was 19 years old. I worked at a gym for 1.5 years and had access to the best equipment, personal trainers, etc. I would only recommend this video to one demographic: people that have experience with working out (specifically strength training) and people that can move from exercise to exercise very quickly. Now, before anyone gets all up in arms, let me explain myself. This video moves VERY quickly. Jillian uses a 3-2-1 approach: 3 minutes of strength training, 2 minutes of cardio, 1 minute of ab work. She repeats this 3 times = 18 minutes, plus a little stretching before and after. As a 5'5" 125 pound female, I even found it difficult to get up and off the ground fast enough to keep up with her. In addition, when you are using free weights, FORM IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. Unless you have experience using free weights, this is not where you should start. This video simply isn't long enough for Jillian to teach someone proper form, that really should be done by a personal trainer. If you can't afford a PT, pick up "Body for Life" by Bill Phillips first. He has a plethora of pictures to assist you with learning proper form. I think that one runs the risk of hurting themselves if they jump right into this video with no prior knowledge of how to use free weights. Even I, an experienced exerciser, found myself sore in places that I really shouldn't be (shins, knees, elbows, wtf!). Anyway, if you are an experienced exerciser and want something quick for one of your off-days, this may do the trick. Just pay close attention to your form. You may not sweat a ton, but you will be sore the next day. Jillian is quite the little butt-kicker, if I do say so myself.

Love It! by J. Benedict 5 Stars

I've been working out to Jillian for two weeks now and absolutely love it! After a couple of days I felt great and could really tell a difference. I haven't finished out the month yet but can already tell a difference in the way my clothes fit! Looking forward to getting to level 3!!

Best 20 minute work-outs ever! by black lab love (chicago il) 5 Stars
November 19, 2009
Let me start off by saying that I'm not actually a fan of Jillian's personality. I find it a little irritating. BUT damn, these workouts are good for a quickie! Heart-pumping and tough on the muscles. It puts the Firm workouts (which I'm a huge fan of) to shame. This has become my go-to dvd for quick and effective 20 minute workouts! I highly recommend it.

This is not another scam DVD- BUY THIS! by A. Smith (New York United States) 5 Stars
November 18, 2009
First off, let me say that through the Weight Watchers program and the use of the DVD, I have lost a little under 35 lbs. This DVD is not a scam- the workouts are short but let me tell you- THEY ARE HARD! It took me a long time to get from level one to two, and equally long to move up to level three. I was not very out of shape to begin with, was not morbidly obese, did not struggle to exercise, really, but even if you have a hard time going up a flight of stairs, this DVD can still help you. The exercises are all designed to help you work your way up. Jillian encourages you to do as much as you can each day, while still pushing you along. I am not a biggest loser fan, but still love this DVD. I am hoping she comes out with a new one soon; I have gotten used to the exercises in level three and have gone back to two just for some variety. I also incorporated some jogging here and there. If you get this, you will not be disappointed- if over 1,000 people came on here to add their input, how could you go wrong? Change your life- you will not be sorry!

A lil disappointed by Kelli Wiggins (jax. bch,fla) 2 Stars
November 18, 2009
I had high hopes for this DVD. Level 1 was intense kick butt. Level 2 was a lil lame. I hardly broke a sweat and i went to level 2 the next day. It was way 2.. I don't know but just not what I thought. I will mix level 1 on this DVD with the Banish Fat Boost Metabolism DVD. Circuit training is a new thing for me so maybe that is why I was a little disappointed. Imma keep @ it till I lose those few stubborn lbs. Delivery was fast. I had just barely logged off the computer for the nite when I had the DVD in my mailbox(jus kiddin).
