Okay, let me start by saying that I don't exercise regularly. I try to get in 30 minutes at least 2-3 times a week rather it is walking, doing the elliptical, or just doing some cardio. I would say that I am in average shape but I could stand to lose 5-10 pounds.To say that this DVD KICKED my butt is an understatement! Level 1 was a struggle for me. I think I need a level -1. It was almost discouraging for me!! However, if you can stay focused and do what you can, it will pay off. It really is a great workout and you can definitely feel the difference. My legs were sore for 2 days after my workout!I'm not a big Jillian Michaels fan, in fact, I find her sort of annoying! But let me assure you she will push you in this video and you will get a good workout!If you want a good workout that will truly give you a feeling of an accomplishment this is your DVD!! Just stick with it and start shredding :-)

My first day of doing this dvd I weighed 227 lbs. For a 25 year old, 5'8" female, that is pretty horrible. Fast forward 12 weeks and I now weigh 190. I love this dvd! The workout is tough and you will feel it, but it's a good burn that lets you know that you're accomplishing something. I don't rely solely on this dvd, I've also taken up running and I have myself on a strict 1200 calorie a day diet, but this dvd is definitely what gave me the motivation to change my lifestyle. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to make a positive and healthy change in their life.Also, even better than the weight loss is the change in clothing size! My favorite store to shop at is The Limited; I've gone from an XL top and size 16 pant to a M top and size 10 pant. Just did some shopping as a little reward for myself! :)

I bought this dvd because I was "skinny fat" with the pooch on the tummy and all. I could barely get thru level 1. Im now doing my 3rd round of this dvd and if you commit to doing 20 minutes of this 5 days a week, you will see results. Add clean eating and an additional session of cardio a day, the results are amazing. Im now spoiled cause I refuse to do a 1 hour fitness dvd when I can get the same results with a 20 minute workout. This dvd is priceless!!

I am a beginner in exercising...so I promised myself to wake-up and do this every day this week; I started on Monday and was not able to do this workout again until this morning(Friday)because my entire body was aching!!! ---that was just from LEVEL 1This is unlike any other workout dvd I have tried....I can feel it working (and especially in the following days you'll feel it) I hope to be able to wake up EVERY morning and do it....because in no time...I'll be thin!Thanks Jillian!!P.S. Make sure you have 2 5lb. hand weights for this one!

This DVD is awesome! If you want to workout for 20 straight minutes--you need this! I'm only on level 1 and I'm sweating up a storm! Jillian is true to herself on the TV show Biggest Loser! She's bad to the bone and you feel like she's right there with you---making sure you don't give up! I truly can't wait to get to the next level!!!I have really bad knees and I'm jumping, kicking and squatting and my knees are getting stronger and stronger!I may not be seeing the weight drop as I only need about 20 pounds to reach my goal but I see the inches dropping and the muscles coming.This is a Sweaty Butt Kicking DVD!!!

This is like having Jillian in your livingroom. I wanted to quit but she kept telling me I couldn't! It's been 4 days and I have lost 1.1 lbs. I'm sore as heck but I keep going back for more. Highly recommend it.
