Holy crap! I forgot how much Jillian YELLS and belittles her team members! I don't think I could work out under those conditions! Any thoughts?

I dont think I could either!0

I am wondering if some of that is for the show. She always has been a yeller but she is worst. Álthough you cant argue with her results.0

I would most likely give her a punch in the face if she spoke to me the way she does some of the contestants.
No excuse to treat other human beings as if they are dirt under her feet.0 -
Jillian has always been my favourite one of the trainers!0

too much... AWESOMENESS!!!!! ummmm... yeah, i'm team jillian all the way0

Maybe one of the reasons her team only has 2 left.....0

I like her a lot, but she does take the insults a bit far.0

I agree with you that she yells too much but she knows what she's doing. When I think these people are going to keel over and die, she knows they need to be forced to work to prove to themselves that they can do it. I think she's amazing at what she does and am glad she's back on the show.0

Yes, I was sad to see them both leave ESPECIALLY the guy that really wanted to be there.0

Love her. Go hard or go home.0

Go hard or go home! If that much money was on the table with a hot bod to go with it I would want someone to push my azz like she does!0

I dealt with Company Commanders in boot camp, compared to them Jillian is a saint.0

She is too much for me...she just a bully!0

I used to be too ashamed of how badly I let my weight get out of control so I would never watch the biggest loser...
but now that I have lost the weight I wanted to see if I would have a different perspective of the biggest loser, but it makes me feel terrible watching it. I see all those women starting at weights I started at, but I never went through any insults or screaming at me to get me to move. I was motivating myself in a kind and gentle way, I understand it's tv, and its supposed to be dramatic, but I almost cant bear to watch it! Especially with all the yelling, and then the weigh-ins where people are upset and unsatisfied with a 12 pound loss in a week.
Everyone is motivated differently I guess?0 -
I think her methods work for some people, but not for all. She's treated everyone like that, and just this season has anyone told her to her face that won't work with me. She just needs to realize people respond to different things.0

I think she does it for two reasons. Obviously, the drama for the show. But I think she also has the mindset that drill sergeants do when trying to get soldiers to their breaking point so that they can build them back up again to be stronger. Like she pushes them to hit rock bottom so that the only way to go is up.0

It's television.....all for ratings. Just like Simon Cowell.0
