 great workout, but be careful if you are injury prone March 10, 2010
CAP (NJ)
Great workout in a short amount of time! I am only about 15 pounds overweight and I wanted to lose a few pounds and tone up. However, after doing level one for a week, I developed bicep tendonitis in my left (weaker) arm from all the pushups. I looked ahead to level 2 and 3 hoping to find exercises I could use to replace the pushups, but I saw more pushups and exercises in that same position. I guess I will rest the arm for a few weeks and look for some exercises to subsitute for some of the pushups so that I can do the rest of the video. Also, be very careful with your knees on all of the lunges and squats.
 Amazing results in no time! March 10, 2010

I credit this DVD with changing my body from "good" shape to amazing shape. I have been exercising 4-5 days a week for about 8 years, and added this DVD to my routine in November of 2009. Total transformation. My arms, legs and abs are cut and defined now, more-so than they ever have been. Combined with some diet changes, I have lost 10 pounds since starting this DVD, and that was with a pretty good baseline of fitness. I do this DVD 2 times a week, doing other types of exercise the other 2-3 times a week (yoga, strength, cardio). I also have BFBM and NMTZ, but I do them much less often than Shred. After I started Shred, my other workouts starting feeling easier. I never would have thought that a 20 minute workout could be so effective. You can definitely start with a lower weight (2-3 lbs) and work your way up to higher weights. I still use 2 lbs for some of the moves because they are so challenging. Level 1 is a great place to start, but it will feel easy in no time! Levels 2 and 3 are, in my opinion, equally challenging, and I would venture to say that Level 2 is actually the most difficult. Level 2 incorporates quite a few moves in Plank Pose, which is killer!
I appreciate Jillian's no-excuses attitude. If you know anything about Jillian you should expect her to be hard on you. I find her sarcasm and tough attitude in the DVD to be motivating and fun!
I would not hesitate to purchase this DVD. You will not be disappointed. I wouldn't use it as my only form of exercise, but I would highly recommend having it around for those days when you need a quick, highly effective workout that you don't have to plan out yourself.
Get ready to sweat!
A REAL WORKOUT FOR REAL PEOPLE March 9, 2010

I purchased this DVD about 2 1/2 weeks ago and I can already see the results. I am not one of those exercise obsessed people who can or want to work out every day. I use this DVD 4 times a week along with a moderate diet. It is easy to follow - no crazy moves that require me to re wind just to follow the routine. The three different work outs make it easy to stay engaged in the whole exercise regime. I have a tendency to become bored in a few days and Jillian has kept me motivated and engaged. It is short enough so that you don't dread working out and intense enough so that the 20 + minutes make a difference in a short time. This is a great video for someone who wants to get back in shape for the warm weather.
 Good workout, wish had more variety March 8, 2010
KVictoria (Chicago, IL)
I've done this DVD 3 times so far but I can't seem to do it two days in a row because of how SORE it makes me.... I guess that means it's doing it's job? It does get your heart rate up and Jillian is not nearly as annoying as a lot of the other trainers out there, so I'm happy with my purchase. I wish it had more than one workout per level, but once you're comfortable with the work-out you can put some music on to drown out all the dailogue so that you don't have to hear Jillian say the same things over and over again.
Quite the workout, but hard on the knees and wrists! March 7, 2010

I would consider myself new to working out and to cardio especially. I have been doing mostly weight training for the last 6 months or so, and I realized I needed to do a lot more cardio if I wanted to lose more weight, so I gave this a go.
Very hard for beginners or overweight people. I had to stop and rest a number of times, and this was just on level one. Haven't even made it to level 2 yet. She relies on lots of jumpy movements (jumping jacks, jump squats, etc) and by the end of the workout on day 3, my knees and wrists needed a break. Very hard on the joints unless you have a very thick mat underneath.
If you don't have a problem with joints, this will certainly get you sweating!
