Hi everyone, I have the following Jillian DVD's and I am trying to decide which to do.

30 Day Shred
No More Trouble Zones
Ripped in 30
Extreme Shred and Shed
Body Revolution (the whole set)
Six Week Six Pack (too hard for me!)
Killer Buns and Thighs
Yoga Meltdown

I also run 3 miles a few times a week.

I can never seem to finish phase 2 of Body Revolution. I was thinking of mixing Killer Buns and No More Trouble Zones with my running to get toned. What do you think and what mix do you do?

    I do 6 days a week:

    Week 1: 6w6p and Killer buns each twice a week + Extreme shed on the weekend
    Week 2: No more trouble zones and banish fat twice each + Extreme Shed on the weekend
    Week 3: 30DS and Ripped in 30 3 times each

    Every two rotations I go up a level on each!

    I agree that 6 pack is hard, level 2 of that is probably her most difficult workout (although level 2 extreme shed is no picnic either)

    Jillian Michaels' 30 day slim down

    It's a rotation suposedly created by Jillian ( although I cant find the original source). It consists of the 30DS, No More Trouble Zones, and Burn Fat/Boost Metabolism.

    N.B. 'Quick Trouble Zones' is the standing part of 'No More Trouble Zones'.

    Here is what the program looks like

    DAY 1 - 30 DAY SHRED: LEVEL 1
    DAY 2 - 30 DAY SHRED: LEVEL 1
    DAY 3 - NO MORE TROUBLE ZONES
    DAY 4 - 30 DAY SHRED: LEVEL 1
    DAY 5 - BANISH FAT, BOOST METABOLISM
    DAY 6 - QUICK TROUBLE ZONES
    DAY 7 - OFF!
    DAY 8 - 30 DAY SHRED: LEVEL 1
    DAY 9 - 30 DAY SHRED: LEVEL 2
    DAY 10 - QUICK TROUBLE ZONES

    DAY 11 - 30 DAY SHRED: LEVEL 2
    DAY 12 - BANISH FAST, BOOST METABOLISM
    DAY 13 - NO MORE TROUBLE ZONES
    DAY 14 - OFF!
    DAY 15 - 30 DAY SHRED: LEVEL 1 & QUICK TROUBLE ZONES
    DAY 16 - 30 DAY SHRED: LEVEL 2
    DAY 17 - NO MORE TROUBLE ZONES
    DAY 18 - 30 DAY SHRED: LEVEL 1 & 2
    DAY 19 - NO MORE TROUBLE ZONES
    DAY 20 - BANISH FAT, BOOST METABOLISM

    DAY 21 - OFF!
    DAY 22 - 30 DAY SHRED: LEVEL 2 & 1
    DAY 23 - QUICK TROUBLE ZONES
    DAY 24 - BANISH FAT, BOOST METABOLISM
    DAY 25 - QUICK TROUBLE ZONES & 30 DAY SHRED: LEVEL 2
    DAY 26 - OFF!
    DAY 27 - NO MORE TROUBLE ZONES & 30 DAY SHRED LEVEL 1
    DAY 28 - BANISH FAT, BOOST METABOLISM & QUICK TROUBLE ZONES
    DAY 29 - 30 DAY SHRED: LEVEL 2 AND THEN LEVEL 1
    DAY 30 - NO MORE TROUBLE ZONES

    I only have 30 DS and use it to supplement my running and other workouts. A typical week for me is usually two rest/light activity days with some combination of the below:

    Day 1: 2-3 mile run with daily shred level 2
    Day 2: 4 mile run
    Day 3: Levels 1 and 3 of daily shred
    Day 4: cross training - biking, stretching, etc.
    Day 5: long run - varies week to week based on training, anywhere 4-10 miles usually

    I've done 30 Day Shred, Ripped in 30, Kickbox FastFix, 6 Week 6 Pack, Killer Abs, and Body Revolution (in that order, over about a year's time). I did JMBR in a modified manner, as I was at maintenance and didn't want to lose more, but stay in good shape, so I did it 3 days per week rather than 6, so it took me 6 months, roughly, to finish, rather than 3. I finished it up last month and restarted Ripped in 30 this month. I'm actually doing it 5 days per week because I've managed to gain about 3 lbs and I'm getting married in September. lol I've done weeks 1 & 2 and was rather surprised to find that it still kicks my butt! lol I prefer RI30 to 30DS, but, honestly, it's just personal preference. I hate 6W6P, mostly because of the lack of variety. I don't like doing the same two routines for that long a stretch. I also have her Yoga Meltdown, but I've never done it as a dedicated program. I just throw it in here and there as something "light" to do. My ticker shows my side view results. Before anything, after 30DS, after RI30, after Kickbox FF, after 6W6P, and after Killer Abs. I've not added my photo from after JMBR, but it's in my blog (link on my profile).
