Workout DVD Review: Jillian Michaels Killer Buns and Thighs

Review by Julia on August 25, 2012
Jillian micheals killer buns and thighs dvd review
I ordered this DVD from Amazon and it arrived really quickly, so you can imagine my excitement as I am a Jillian fan! Only one problem, I was out flat with colds and flu for nearly a month so Jillian had to wait. But oh my goodness, she was well worth the wait! She promises thighs so lean and mean that they will destroy the sexiest jeans money can buy. Who in their right mind doesn’t want a bit of that? This is a hard core, fat blasting, booty sculpting work out and as usual Jillian is the queen of mean! She’s not taking any prisoners in this DVD. Continue reading →

Jillian Micheals Ripped In 30 Workout Diary Week 2

Review by Emma on May 26, 2012

You may notice that Part II of this Ripped in 30 review has had a slight posting delay as I had visitors over for a week and barely had time to touch my laptop. I did my last day on this level the day they arrived and so was feeling pretty smug! I had ended week one with weight loss of just under a pound and was seeing some improvement in my arm muscles and a much flatter stomach. That's enough motivation to get cracking on level two!

Jillian Micheals Ripped In 30 Workout Diary Week 1

Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30 workout DVD review
As you may have noticed from my 30 Day Shred review, I'm a big Jillian Michaels fan when it comes to working out. After doing a few 30 Day Shreds to get into shape for certain events it started to get a bit easy (!!!) so I got on Amazon and started seeing what else Jillian had out there and Ripped in 30 caught my eye! The DVD includes a 30 day eating plan which I'm sure doubles the results you can get from the workout alone but I'll disclose now that I won't be following the plan as it includes meat and other things that I don't eat. I'll be continuing with my usual diet and see what results I get from the workout by itself. Continue reading →

Workout DVD Review: Jillian Michaels Banish Fat Boost Metabolism

Review by Julia on July 20, 2011

After finishing the fantastic 30 Day Shred I thought I would try another one of Jillian Michaels’s workout DVDs as she is such a motivational trainer. Banish Fat and Boost Metabolism was the DVD I chose and what a choice I made. This really is a 40 minute butt kicking, sweaty, fat melting, cardio workout. It's circuit training style without any expensive equipment, just using your own bodyweight. Its hard core exercise, effective, challenging and makes Davina’s workouts (which I love) seem like a walk in the park!

Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred - Workout Diary Part 2

Review by Emma on January 11, 2011

Here is the latest installment of my 30 Day Shred workout diary where I take you through days 11 to 20 and my progress so far. In case you missed it, Part I of this workout diary can be found here. I spent most of this phase working through Level Two of the DVD but managed to get my fitness up high enough to feel confident having a go at Level Three. Here is my day by day account of life on the Shred!

Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred - Workout Diary Part 1

Review by Emma on December 31, 2010

Being a bit of a Biggest Loser fan I decided to order myself a copy of Jillian Michaels - 30 Day Shred.

I love doing workout DVDs because ONE I can’t afford city gym membership prices and TWO I like to sweat and grunt in the privacy of my home. I recently gained 10 lbs after giving up smoking and would really love to shift that weight. In total I want to lose 20 lbs but I will be a happy customer if Jillian can help me lose the first 10. The DVD cover claims that you could lose up to 20lbs in 30 days, but I don’t have such high expectations!
