 Feelin' good but be warned... August 26, 2008

I was looking for a workout video that would give me results and one I could do at home without having to buy a lot of equipment to start. I came across this one while browsing the selections and what caught my eye was the "lose 20lbs in 30 days" claim.
I had never seen the Biggest Loser program or heard of Jillian Michaels but I did some research and found she was highly praised in the workout world. I have been doing the video now for 3 weeks and have just now moved onto the 2nd level. The workouts are very tough but cohesive so they move along quickly and are very easy to follow. The only equipment you need are some hand weights, 3 & 5 lbs and a mat if you are on a tile floor.
I definitely feel a higher level of endurance and my body feels stronger.
Now for the warning part. The only complaint or disappointment I have is the weight loss issue. I have not lost any weight & so far my measurements have not altered either. I found out after the video purchase that the weight loss claim is linked to a customized "diet plan" based on how much you want to lose AFTER joining JM's Official Site. The joining fee is around $120 a yr (if I calculated it right) and if you can afford this fee then I am sure it will work out great for you. I cannot so I've resorted to a "common sense" diet of my own design and hope to see some weight loss results soon.
Overall this video is a great home "workout" whether done alone or with other exercise. If you stay with it and do it every day as suggested you will feel a difference as I have even if you don't see one.
 Awsome!! August 26, 2008

I love it! It is a great workout in 20 minutes that will definately give you results. Its definately tough, sometimes I feel like I want to puke! I do the work out about 5 days a week, but I'm not following the diet. I have definately lost weight, but most of all I feel healthy and strong!
 CAUTION: Great Workout But Not for Arthritic Knees!!! August 25, 2008

Let me start by saying, I love Jillian on "The Biggest Loser". She obviously has a big heart and wants to see people succeed and she knows how to work the fat off. For that reason, I was really eager to start this workout. Being a very regular exerciser at my gym for years (5-6 days per week), but still needing to lose weight and growing tired of the old gym routine, I thought I would try this at home. I knew this workout would be hard, but I thought it would also be good for me. It's a "boot camp" style workout and will definitely make you sweat, but if you have bad knees then beware! (I have progressive arthritis in both knees after years of dance, skiing, and being generally very physically active.) I don't recommend this workout for you. The workout involves a lot of jumping (jumping jacks, jumping rope motions, jumping kick-backs, etc.) alternating with squat-like movements. After doing the beginner workout one time, my knees are shot and I've been put on a "no exercise for minimum of 10 days" order. So far it's been 8 days and I'm still far from recovered. What a bummer! I have no doubt this is an excellent workout for someone with healthy knees and I'm passing the DVD on to a younger friend who I think will love it. But if you have knee issues, you may want to look elsewhere -- or at least don't do the jumping (but that's a huge chunk of the workout so what's the point?). My jumping days are, unfortunately, over. Still looking for that challenging workout that will not stop me from walking. If anyone has suggestions, please pass them on in the comments!
This DVD really works - buy it! August 25, 2008

After 5 days of working out with this DVD I already feel stronger. I have progressed to level two and am looking forward to level three.
If you are serious about changing your body and have 20 minutes a day to dedicate yourself to this DVD - Buy IT and you will see and feel the difference.
Tough workout, but I LOVE it!! August 25, 2008

Very motivating, very hard, but very very worth the money, time and effort! Like other reviews, the warmup was not enough for me. At 47, I need a little more to get the muscles ready for the challenge. I just jump on the treadmill for about 20 minutes to limber up. I have just started to tackle level 3 some, and it is a killer. The walking plank is awesome! Good luck :)
