My own Jillian Michaels exercise program!!

Ok- So I love Jillian Michaels but I don't have $120 plus tax plus S&H to order her new Body Revolution Program. So I am going to make one out of some of her DVDs I already have and a few new ones so I can rotate 6 workout DVDs. Also a yoga and pilates dvd from walmart for weight loss. I am 137 and 24%BF and want to get to 125lbs or 18-20%BF...either would be fine with me. This is the schedule/program I made to do this and hopefully drop the last of the weight and tighten up the last of my jiggle! :) Tell me what you think and if you'd like to join in and do it with me! :)

I have done the P90x Lean before and so I made my schedule based on his lean program.

    I just searched for a Jillian Micheals DVD rotation and found your post. I love the look of this plan you put together...I have all the DVDs. I wanted to,ask you how is it going so far? I see you posted this about 6weeks ago. I just joined MFP or else I would have done this with you. Currently I am training for a 5k in October but love my Jillian DVDs and need a good schedule. Thanks for posting this, hope it is going well!

    I like her DVD's and she kicks my butt every week, however, I wouldn't base my entire program around her. The biggest thing I see missing from your program is a solid lifting plan. Jillian is more cardio based, yes you use weights, but you won't see the same results as you would from lifting heavy.
