Disappointed - Jillian is Better June 30, 2008 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
After working out for 3 weeks to Jillian's 30 Day Shred; I found this video in my local library and thought I'd give it a try. As much as the show was touted it would be a good change....RIGHT. I was disappointed, thankfully I rented this DVD.
I only made it as far as the Sculpting Workout. What a laugh. There are no compound moves....nothing. It is so easy. I never even broke a sweat. After that I didn't pursue it any further; I returned the DVD. Jillian's 30 Day Shred it so much better: you will break a sweat, you will feel the burn and start to see the difference. Thank god I only rented this.
A bit hard on the knees! June 11, 2008 I just got this DVD and as someone who hasn't exercised in I don't know how long, decided to try the "low impact cardio" to start off with. It is REALLY hard on the knees. Bob spends a lot of time in this 20 min. segment doing lunges and squats, both which are hard on the knees (and I didn't consider myself to have "bad knees") but it was really difficult. Another thing is it's hard to keep time, because you'll see Bob maintaining a certain rhythm, then they'll cut away to another person, then when they cut back to Bob, he's at a different pace. He's really motivational which is nice, but I just wish they didn't focus SO much on lunges. I think I'll be on this segment for a while before even attempting the "high impact cardio". It definitely makes you break a serious sweat though and I REALLY feel it today!
Good workout June 2, 2008 If you are just starting off this is a great work out. I like that you can select the different workouts. Also, the people you see on the video are not all skinny and they get tired just like you. For me it was more realistic, that other tapes.
Wonderful all around workout adaptable for all fitness levels June 2, 2008 I bought this DVD in January along with the Max Cardio Biggest Loser DVD because I liked the show and found these on sale and alternated them with my Kathy Smith Lift Weights to Lose Weight DVD. Between the three of them and walking (I would choose one per day and walk outside or on my treadmill) I have lost over 43 pounds and 27 inches and now fit into size 8P (I was in size 16P)! I have also been watching my portion sizes obviously but I was into working out previously but had not been able to work out much for the last three years during my two nearly back to back pregnancies due to my history of miscarriage (I was limited to only light walking)so I packed on unnecessary pounds and was more than happy to get rid of them. I started slow and worked up, initially doing this DVD as my primary one because of the first segment which is low impact aerobics since I had a knee injury requiring 6 weeks of physical therapy after my last child was born. I like that this DVD shows you how to modify certain exercises to help your knees and you still feel like you get a workout. For anyone complaining they don't 'get enough' with this workout after doing the recommended 6 week program (which I followed) I have now worked up to being able to do this entire DVD without stopping (100 minutes total) and by the time you get to the last aerobic segment (Bootcamp) you will feel tired but envigorated that you did it! I use 6 lbs weights when I do the Strength and sculpt section and the Bootcamp but if I do the entire DVD I only do a 2 lb weight for the Boot camp section due to muscle fatigue and still get an awesome workout. The cool down stretch is a bit long but one of the best I have done. This DVD would be a great investment to your collection and a great one to start if you have a lot of weight to lose.
As always, Great workout with Bob! May 31, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Biggest Loser Workout, Vol. 1 Great workout video, with great results. I have all of the Biggest Loser Workout Dvd's and the results are amazing. I have been doing the videos for 4 months now, and i am down 2 sizes and still remain about the same weight...Bob and Drea make the video a little comical..I would definately recommend this if you need/want to change your body. Low intense cardio is a GREAT workout! Its all Good Stuff!
