in Fitness and Exercise
Thinking of doing this Dvd by Jillian Michaels I chose this one because I want to lose weight whereas with her other dvds I transformed my shape but gained weight in muscle. Is this the same or will it help me lose weight still ?

Thanks :)

    I have done that about 7 or 8 times in the past 2.5 weeks and it is definitely worth it! It is tough as hell but if you get past the first few times of doing it completely then you may actually look forward to doing it! I had to stop so many times the first time I did it but now I can go through the whole thing without stopping (except to chug some water). And I love it now because I can do more and more of some of the exercises each time and it feels great! I also just did the Jillian Michaels for Beginners front side today thinking it'd be a nice break from bfbm but it's tough too! Not as much cardio though. Hope this helps!

    I have only lost about 2lbs so far (i love food too much to cut down a lot) but I definitely contribute this video to the majority of that. I can already see a difference in the way I look, especially around my stomach (my problem area). My boyfriend also said I felt thinner after hugging me so that's a plus! Also, if you haven't bought it yet, you can find the whole video right on youtube and watch it for free!

    Awesome thanks I have bought this and done it once or twice but definitely going to try do the whole thing even if it means stopping a couple of times I just didn't want to do it if it was going to make me gain weight in muscle

    I love this DVD. It's amazing, and yes you will lose weight because it's all cardio but you tone too because of the moves. It's hard and I still have a hard time getting through it.

    I have lost 30 pounds working out to Jillian Micheals but I was doing extra cardio like walking with the baby 60mins a day over the summer and fall, and I tried jogging but got an injury.

    I'm taking a break from Jillian and started Insanity yesterday. I only did the fit test but it was intense.

    I think there will be a little bit of muscle in the legs because that's the only part I ever feel "burn" and that ever gets sore but I don't think it will be anything significant. You will definitely burn fat.

    By the end of it I am pushing myself so hard to not give up and when it gets down to the last circuit I am so happy I made it!

    LOVE this one! It is part of my regular routine. It is super focused on cardio though, so don't expect anything else. If you have a computer near some open space, you can watch it for free on BeFit to see if you like it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTT4W8ygJ7w&list=PL6F135DD9918D21E7&index=26&feature=plpp_video

    Haha, never mind! Didn't read all your responses and I see you bought it. Have fun! :)
