Jillian Michaels, the trainer from NBC's The Biggest Loser and self-proclaimed "TV's toughest fitness guru," runs through circuit training like a drill sergeant on caffeine. Her theory is to keep moving in between exercises to burn twice as many calories, so she cycles her team through sumo squats, mountain climbers, jump ropes, shoulder raises and bicycle moves without taking a breath. If she doesn't think one of her comrades is picking up his knees high enough, she makes everyone do 30 more, with a sadistic grin. As a result, you can almost literally watch the muscle burn. Michaels' Shape-Up Front DVD works out the chest, shoulders, triceps and quads. It also requires two props: a bench-style exercise step and light dumbbells. The DVD features include printable diet/exercise logs, nutrition tips and recipes. Despite a lower-level option, it isn't for anyone looking for a low-impact aerobic workout. --Ellen A. Kim

 awesome set August 26, 2008

Jillian is Hardcore! I recommend the 30 Day Shred that includes three killer workout routines and it's only $10. If you are done with that, this set includes 5 DVDs, each contains only one workout so it could fit in a double DVD set but still they are all really good
Great Workout August 25, 2008
These are great workouts from Jillian Michaels. I first saw her on Exercise TV doing her 30 Day Shred and tried that out. When I had a personal trainer we did a lot of interval training and I lost the most weight and toned/gained the most muscle. So, when I saw her workouts they reminded me so much of my time at the gym that I knew her products would work for me. The only drawback for me is that I wish it was a full 30 minutes of workout only (with added time for warm-up and cool down).
One Heck of a Workout! August 22, 2008
I was driven to buy these DVDs because of the way that Jillian Michaels kicks butt on The Biggest Loser. I was not disappointed! Jillian keeps things rolling and energetic, motivating the whole way through. The first time I worked out to this DVD, every time I felt myself wanting to stop she seemed to know it and would tell me to keep going! The mix of cardio and weight training gives you an incredible workout, and the two DVDs are designed so you can do them on consecutive days for maximum calorie burn and muscle building!
Jillian gets me to do cardio August 17, 2008
This is definitely one of my go-to fitness videos. It is difficult to find straight-up high-intensity cardio videos that are JUST cardio! I resistance train seriously at the gym and so I am always trying to find strictly cardio (no "toning," thanks) videos I can use at home on rest days. This is one of the few videos I have found that really fits the bill. It's higher intensity than most cardio videos I've encountered, the choreography is not ridiculous (I can only do so many step-touches and box steps, so I like that it's kickbox-based) and it's nice and short. Plus, I love Jillian. It's very hard to get me to do my cardio and so it is a credit to this video that I will often do it twice, back to back. My only real complaint is that the music sucks. But you can't have everything.
The Biggest Winner -How to win by losing-by Jillian Michaels August 10, 2008
I love this series! Jillian is a no nonsense drill instructer. She keeps you on your toes and pushes you to do more than you realize you can do. If your serious about toning up and losing weight, this is the series for you. This is not for people with any type of disabilities (arthritis, etc...This is also not for people who are seriously over weight. This is for people who are already at or near their goal weight and want to be extra firm.
