I have attempted to do it a few times and love it but I always end up hurting myself; my heals, knees, ankles. Maybe once I lose weight I'll attempt it again.

Hi,  I have five of the Biggest Loser DVDs including Jillian's 30 Day Shred.  It's quite a workout, and I'm on the beginner level.  In fact, just did it two nights ago.  Last night I tried her Killer Buns/Thighs.  I think these DVDs could be good and show results, IF I stick with them 4-5 times/week.  (BTW - I can think of a number of people who I'd describe as the "spawn of Satan", but Jillian M is not one of them.)

I have it & I love it.  I found muscles I didn't know I even had!! I like that there are different levels of intensity and I find that the workout goes really quickly, which is a bonus.  I have been known to mute her because she is a bit like an ice pick in the ear. But for a serious workout, it's worth it.

I have it and like it, but it's not my favourite. The great thing about it is you get in, work hard, and get out. I see it at Wal Mart all the time for like $9, so its worth checking out if you think you might like it. There are 3 circuits of 3 min strength - 2 min cardio - 1 min abs plus a warmup/cool down. She also has 'Ripped in 30' which is the same style of workout, just different moves.

I find her personality to be a bit, uh, strong, but lots of people like it.

If she is as much of a b*tch as she is on The Biggest Loser the only exercise I would end up getting would be by stomping up and down on the DVD!!  Cannot stand that woman!  Her idea of motivation is tearing people down.. then turning around and being sickeningly sweet afterwards.. ugh!!!!

I have it and really enjoyed it. The workout has a quick warm-up, then three circuits and a cool down. I did it for about 25 days because it just wasn't feasible some days to do it. She has three stages (beginner, middle and advanced) that I went through for about 10 days or so at each level. I found it was good because they showed the basic exercise and then a modified version, so depending on your level and comfort with the exercises, you could decide which was better for you. Although I'm not a fan of her on the show, I found her motivating in the videos.

I don't need someone to yell at me and disparage me - I do a good enough job on my own.
