![]() this woman is a renowned trainer with a huge reputation, she would not put her name or herself on a product that couldnt deliver, this is her livelyhood, she is a fitness instructor not a fad celebrity telling you to feel the burn for some extra cash. even her trainers in the video sweat in this workout, so if your not theres something your not doing. iv moved up 2 weight classes in 2 weeks at the gym, i can run longer and iv dropped a stone. if yor not sweating at level one, more to level two, but make sure your doing the exercises correctly. but its not a quick fix, it is a life style. if you eat like the technique above, do the work out and eat healthly you will drop the weight. back to jillian, the work out works multiple muscles, it isnt about heart rate with this work out, using multiple muscles simultaniously burns more fat, this exercise is twice as effective as a 20 minute run. when you starve yourself your body goes into survival mode and stores fat, you need to eat continuously throughout the day, you need to eat SLOWLY so you feel when your full, so you take a mouthful, put your forks etc down, chew and then take another bite, chewing each bite about 20 times, and as soon as you feel yourself getting full, STOP it doesnt matter what you think your wasting, you stop! you can loose weight just by eating like this, you metabolism goes into super drive. firstly there was a comment somewhere in here that said youd need to starve yourself with this work out to loose any weight. Some of you guys need to do some more research before you set into these things. I know that will make a big change in the weight loss when I do get it but in the end the website along with the DVD are very helpful and are very beneficial to conditioning the body. I am planning on purchasing an elliptical since I can’t go to a gym just yet since my daughter is still so young. It is indeed a start and I am truly happy with the results and will continue to use her DVD. I am proud to say that I am around 200 lbs with no love handles and I have lost 2 pants sizes going from 19 to 17. Along with the weight loss I have also seen the change in my body shape. I also use the website that she has to add on the fitness plans that she has and I jump rope about 4 times a week for 20 minutes. I am currently 196 lbs and am on week 4 of using the video as of today. I started using the video in September and I am extremely happy with the starting results. By the time I started using the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred video I was at 215. So I just had a baby in June of this year and was at my heaviest weighing 238 lbs. I don’t see how anyone can “lose up to 20 lbs in 30 days” on her plan - like I said, I only burned 125 calories doing it - but I do think it dovetails nicely with the cardio I already do.Īll I need now is some lighter hand weights, which will probably come in handy anyway for P90X. In the meantime, I’m excited to do a few more sessions of shredding at Level One, and then bump up to Level Two and, eventually, Level Three. And when my hubby doesn’t have class, he can join me. Now that it’s getting nicer out, it’ll be nice to do these workouts at home whenever/wherever I want to, plus still have the freedom to work out outside biking/running/walking and/or the gym (where my beloved Precor lies). In fact, soon I’ll be doing P90X (once it arrives, “on or around April 27” according to the estimated shipment date), so I won’t be doing Cristi’s training routine anyway, which is quite time-consuming and means I need to be at the gym to do it. I mean, it’s definitely not something I see myself personally doing as a stand-alone workout since I do love the gym still and don’t have little ones at home demanding attention.īut combined with my usual cardio, it could be a nice complement … and because it’s a total body workout, it will probably be more effective than my trainer’s super-setting routine. That said, I only burned 125 calories with the workout (Mon and Tues) per my HRM, so not sure how one can “lose 20 lbs in 30 days” doing it as the DVD cover claims. I genuinely felt like I didn’t want to (ha!) let her down.Īnd what I like best is it’s under 25 minutes so I can do it start-to-finish three times a week without necessarily needing to go to the gym at the crack of dawn. ![]() I like how Jillian talks to you, and found her encouraging, not annoying like some fitness instructors are. ![]() ones I have because I was struggling with some exercises and form is more important than the amount of weights being lifted. I do think I need lighter weights than the 8 lb. But I gotta say, Jillian Michaels kicked my ASS! And on Level One no less! OK so you ladies (and gents) know I’m a gym-rat and I love fitness and working out.
