    I love it--however, of the six of her dvd's I have, it is by far the most difficult. You will get a great workout in, but I wouldn't recommend it to a beginner--it's better to start out with 30 Day Shred.

    Actually, I find doing just level 1 of shed & shred easier than 30 day shred yet burned more calories

    Either way, FANTASTIC dvd

    I love it! It really works ya. This past weekend I did Level 1 and Level 2 together for the first time. She basically just takes out the cool down from L1 and the warm up from L2 and squishes them together. It took 80 minutes but burned 750+ calories per my HRM and was an awesome workout. Just level 1 alone is about 40 min and burns over 400 cals for me. It's a good one!

    Thanx everyone... I'm so excited now!

    So can't wait for it to arrive :-P

    Can any of you see results? (besides cals burnt) if so how long did it take to see the results?

    Any of Jillian's work outs are amazing to do so I am sure you will see results pretty fast, what I like most is that you notice your fitness level increasing within 3-4 times of doing it (especially at the beginning). She is very motivational!

    I have a few JM dvd's and Body Revolution and Extreme Shed & Shred is my least favorite of them all. Still good though. Now that another person commented and said it's the hardest one. I may have to revisit it (though I can't imagine it being harder than body revolution!)

    I do the 80 minute workout using the advanced options and I love it. The time goes by very quickly. Highest calories burned on the hrm so far is 701.

    I have it and I really like it. I do find it difficult as well but totally worth it. I've done both levels at once only two times.........killer.

    I finished 30 DS today, so I went out and bought ES&S. It looks intense. I'm nervous. {bites nails}

    I am just about halfway through Level 1 of 30DS and am thinking about beginning this after I finish up with the other one. People's opinions of it is helpful. I am a big fan of Jillian and her dvd workouts :)

    I am heading into day 3 of doing ESS. It is extremely difficult. Even the warmup is hard LOL. I don't know how much longer I will be able to do it.

    One probably I am having is with my coordination when it comes to some of the exercises, such as kickboxing and boxing punches. My form is so off. Perhaps I need to practice doing them outside of the workout.
