I am an exercise DVD and equipment junkie. Treadmill, Bowflex, Fluidity Bar, Tae Bo, Power 90, Zumba, pilates...you name it, I've got it. I have many good workout DVDs, but usually do not have forty minutes to an hour to block out to work out everyday. Jillian has done a very good job of packing a challenging workout into 20 minutes. The movements are simple, yet executed very effectively. I can get up at a decent hour (6 AM), do this workout and still get my kids to school (and myself to work) on time. It's great, because I am motivated to get up and do it since I know I can get it done and get on with my day. I definitely feel the burn.
One reviewer complained that they did not feel enough burn on the upper body strength and ab exercises. If you need more of an upper body challenge, you may try increasing your weight. To intensify the ab workouts, one might do them on an exercise ball or add weight during this portion. I use my rebounder for some of the cardio portion which enhances the movement and reduces impact.
As for those who have said it is boring, I don't find it boring at all. But then, I want an effective workout--not to be entertained. I have a few boring workout videos--this is not one of them. I guess it's a matter of personal taste. I'm glad to have it in my exercise library. |

| I have not worked out in almost a year so I'm a little rusty but level 1 killed me! I gave it 4 stars because I do see myself getting bored with it. I have been doing tae bo for 8 years and it is still my favorite but I'm pressed for time and needed a change. If you're unsure about this video I recommend buying it at collage video because you can return it if you don't like it! |

| I used the DVD through the holidays. I stayed motivated to eating better and working out everyday. They say the average person gains 7-10 lbs over the holidays. By using this DVD I did not gain 1 lb. I look forward to the continued use of the DVD to lose weight throughout this year. I would recommend it to any and everybody. There are 3 different levels. It starts pretty easy (but you still sweat) and gets very difficult. It is a workout designed to kick your butt everytime. TRY IT! |

| This DVD offers a great exercise if you are in a good shape. Jillian is a tough trainer and her routine is hard. However, if you are more than 50 pounds overweight, some of the exercise might be hard on your knee. My advice is to use the modified exercise. If you can't do the 20 minutes, start easy and build up from there. It's better to start easy and gradually improve your intensity than to push hard for the entire exercise, injured yourself and stop altogether. |

| I bought this DVD after being a fan of the Biggest Loser, and Jillian definitely delivers. Even though each workout is only 20 minutes, I'm always dripping with sweat by the time it's over. Prior to getting this DVD, I had already lost 50 pounds (less than 40 more to go), so I was at a pretty decent fitness level by the time I started 30 Day Shred. That said, I wouldn't really recommend this DVD for someone who is new to working out. If you're already at an average/intermediate fitness level, this will definitely add some spice to your routine. |
