    Go Hard or go home for sure - I appreciate that people respond to different training methods but for me Team Jillian all the way. Straight to the point and yes everyone needs to be yelled at once and a while in the gym, motivation - Hello!

    I do her Revolution workout 6 days a week and love it and her! She is very motivational and inspiring. The way she is on the show, alot of it is for TV. She is very serious and tries to push people so they don't quit. Sometimes the mind can talk you out of something just because it's difficult. Her goal is to get people past that mindset to reach their goals. Anyone who goes on the show knows how she is and should know to expect that from her.

    I personally wouldn't mind it because that kind of motivation pushes me to work harder - I'm super competitive. But I can see how some people might feel the opposite. :( Then again, I really do think that breaking people down to build them up works. I remember that this season she said something like "I know I'm being hard on them, but these people have been quitting their whole lives." Being super hard on them the first day and not letting them make excuses changes the mindset, in my opinion. I think the girl who left wasn't emotionally ready to be on the show regardless of who her trainer was.

    ^^this....I love me some Jillian
  • I actually think I could work really well with her. I'm extremely mulish person and I know if I had her screaming at me I'd dig in and get it done just so I could tell her to *kitten* off afterwards.

    The funny thing is, I do her 30 day shred video, and when I feel like I can't do it and the thought of stopping even for a second pops into my head, I Imagine Jillian is in the room with me screaming at me to keep going, and it works.
    I too believe that for a lot of people, pushing them might make you mad, but it will also make you want to prove yourself.

    Nope, couldn't & wouldn't do it. Not motivating.
