Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred |
 Great video with no frills needed |
| I love Jillian! I faithfully watch The Biggest Loser and I've always loved her on the show. I knew before I got this video that it would kick my butt because that's the type of trainer she is. I tried the video for the first time this morning and started on level 2. WOW, it was kick-butt! I've done Tae-Bo in the past and thought that was hard but this wore me out. The moves are not hard to do but with the repetitions, they get you sweating. I don't have a lot of upper body strength (yet!) so some of the moves with the pushups are a little difficult but I just modify it or only do what I can. The great thing about this tape is you can see how she gets all the muscles working without spending 50-60 minutes! I would definitely recommend it. - posted by Amanda on 11/14/2008 |

 Not Impressed |
| I have been working out for 20 years on and off. I was not that impressed with this workout - as an advanced workout. I think it is more of a beginner workout. It was too short, she does not move with the beat of the music, and she does not hit all body parts. Just my opinion. - posted by Rebecca on 11/7/2008 |

| Jillians Shred is awsome |
| I love this workout. I stopped working out for awhile and have now returned. I love the fact that I can workout for 20 minutes and feel like I worked out for 40. I started with Level 2 and was sweating the 1st time I did it. I also could not finish all the moves on some parts. Now I've stuck with it for a week and can keep up with it all. I feel stronger and can see my abs already. Great workout for people who are strapped for time and need a but kicking workout! - posted by Val on 11/4/2008 |

| Baby Belly Disappearing |
| Almost 10 weeks ago, I had my 3rd child. It was also my 3rd c-section in under 5 years. I have been using this video for 2 weeks and I have noticed a dramatic difference in my waistline, and I am DEFINITELY more toned! I haven't seen many pounds come off yet, but I can tell all parts of my body are more toned, thanks to Jillian's video. I appreciate this video because I have a small living room, and I can easily do this workout and not be running into furniture. There is no difficult choreography to learn, just straight-forward cardio, strength, and ab moves. Thanks! - posted by Sara on 10/29/2008 |

| Terrific and tough workout! |
| I have a trainer at the gym and go at least 4 times a week for cardio and strength training but I do this tape when I don't go to the gym and it is hard. I am on level 2 and tomorrow I try level 3 for the first time. I love the tape- it is quick, the exercises are clear and there are modifications, as needed. I sweat buckets when I am finally done and look forward to the cooldown. But when you get through the workout , with Jillian's support, you feel really great that you have accomplished a lot. I also notice my abs and upper arms are beginning to really take shape, and I am over 50 and just started working out a year ago after losing 100 pounds. I work really hard with this tape but it is favorite of mine! - posted by Jeri on 10/25/2008 |

| Really works for me |
| I have to admit I am a Jillian devotee. She is so passionate about exercise and sees fitness in such a holistic way but never pretends to love working out. I love that about her and have to admit I hate exercise but I make myself do it for 5 hours every week . I enjoy her no nonsense, kick up the pants style of instruction as it gives me the motivation I need to not make excuses. I have done all her other dvds to death gradually working from 1 kilo weights to 3 kilo weights (I am 5"2 and around 47-48 kilos so 3 kgs is a big deal for me )
I started this DVD on level 3 and I love it. First time around I found it very very tough but it does get easier the more I do it. I noticed a huge difference in my abs very quickly following this workout and I find that if I miss doing this DVD for a few weeks my abs look less defined.
I have done 5-7 hours exercise per week for 5 years and since finding Jillian my body has changed so much. Her workouts sculpted me in a way no other DVD ever has.
With two young daughters (2 and 6 years of age) a part time job in a stressful field and very little time to exercise doing 25 minutes a few times a day is my only way to fit exercise in and I find Jillian's workouts are just the right length for me. I am about to hit 30 and my metabolism is slowing so I aim to keep going with Jillian's DVDs as along as possible! - posted by Lucy on 10/24/2008 |

| Kick Butt Workout |
| This workout is amazing!! I've been faithfully working out with this DVD and my results are fantastic! In 1-1/2 months I've lost 14 pounds and tons of inches, off everything. It's very challenging, but very rewarding! - posted by Brenda on 10/23/2008 |

| Fooled Me |
| Wow! What a workout. I was going to begin with Level 2 or 3 because I already workout to Cathe. Then I thought I'll just try Level 1 first and use heavier weight. I did Level 1 this morning. Well, was I impressed. I only used heavier wgt on the chest flys. I can't wait to try 2 & 3. Also, she was not overly obnoxious. Great job! - posted by Denise on 10/22/2008 |

| Excellent Workout! |
| Wow, when you see that the workouts are only 20 minutes each, you may think that it'll be super easy. No! Even level 1 kicked my butt, and I was sweating away. I really like Jillian as an instructor (I don't watch Biggest Loser, so I had no background with her). She's very no-nonsense, yet kind. I feel like she cheers me on without being annoying or condescending. The moves are straightforward and tough. This is a great DVD. - posted by Jamie on 10/20/2008 |

| This is awesome! |
| This DVD seriously kicks my butt! I used to spend 1 1/2 hours a day~5 days a week at the gym and never got results like this! I can't believe how Jillian keeps me motivated day after day. This is a must have DVD for any workout level. BUY THIS VIDEO, I even cancelled my gym membership. Thanks Jillian! - posted by Andi on 10/10/2008 |
