Does anyone else get annoyed from Jillian Michales?

Is it just me or does anyone else find Jillian Michaels in the 30 days shred ANNOYING.
I just wanna yell at her to shut up. Is it just me?

  • I literally JUST finished day 3 level 2! I know a lot of people complain about the repetitiveness of the video, but I find her quite motivating. Every time I feel like giving up she gets me through it:tongue:

    Turn the TV off. That helps.

    I did 15 days of it and I hated her and told her to shut up (and other not so polite things) more than once lol

    I know what you mean lol. I find her motivating BUT at the same time I wanna quit.
  • She gets worse with the newer dvds. When I did her workouts, I muted her after the first few times and played my own music.

    Hahaha! My sister was just telling me how she can't do her DVDs, because she finds Jillian too annoying.

    I usually put the tv on mute. Her voice is kinda annoying.

    It's either love or hate with Jillian, isn't it

    I find her totally annoying. Good thing I don't do her workouts.

    Depends, some days I find her motivating, some days she is really annoying. On those days, I just do it with the music from my Ipod. The workout still great, love that it is only 20 min and doable before going to work.

    I've never done Jillian Michales DVDs. Does she scream at you like she screams at people on The Biggest Loser? If she does, I would turn the volume down too!

    i'm in the midst of the 30 day shred, and i'm not really annoyed by jillian. as some others have noted, i find it motivating, and i also appreciate that she DOES some of the workout with the 2 other girls, unlike another video i have where the trainer doesn't!

    LOL, I thought I was the only one.....After calling her a few choice names, I just mute her now :laugh:

    I find her motivating but agree that she gets sickening to listen to through the 30 day shred. When I am doing a 30 minute segment I am familiar with, I turn the volume down and do it with my own music playing. Time goes much quicker this way!!

    I did 30-day shred twice which was just long enough to get me so annoyed by "No shame ladies" that I was ready to track her down and strangle her. The other thing that turned me off it was the possibility that I may end up with a body like hers - without wishing to sound a *kitten*....the girl looks like a dude.

    Yeah I find her extremely annoying lol. I also find that the exercise seems to take longer when she is talking non stop the whole time.
  • Can't stand her, and can't be bothered to tolerate her enough to try her videos.

    I like that she says stuff like "I want you to feel like you're going to DIE".....becuase then I know its ok that I actually do feel that way!

    Yes, I get annoyed. She is not my favorite trainer.

    Sometimes she makes me do things I don't want to do, but I suck it up... :laugh:

    I will literally talk to the tv and tell her "No, I don't want to!!!" as I'm doing doing whatever it is she wants me to do anyways...

    No, she's actually pretty nice in her videos. Like or hate her though, her vids do get people up and moving around, where they hadn't before, and helps get them into shape before working with harder workout routines later down the road.

    I don't think there's a DVD out there where you aren't going to get somewhat annoyed by the trainer, no matter who they are.

    Jillian's not nearly as annoying as some of the other DVD trainers out there (***ahem Denise Austin, I'm talking about you!!!***)...

    Most days she doesn't annoy me, but sometimes I don't want to hear it. "I have 400 pound people who can do jumping jacks, so can you!"

    There is an option to have just the music playing and no talking. I don't like the music so I just mute it all out and play my own on those annoying days.

    I mute the TV and turn on some tunes! I only listen to her the first couple times so I know what I am supposed to be doing.

    I start out all perky and happy with her, but half way through I'm cussing her out screaming with what breath I have left for her to seriously shut it. LOL...She's motivating though and usually *right* when I feel like quitting she'll spout off something like *I know you want to give up but don't* and it ticks me off enough to want to prove her wrong LMAO
