I finished JMBR about 2 weeks ago. I lost 30 lbs and 19". I am close enough to my goal weight that I'm not wanting to lose anymore, but still wanna tone. I am currently doing a mix of 30DS, Jillian's Killer Buns and Thighs and some cardio.

I miss JMBR like CRAZY and I plan on starting up again on June 17 (after I finish what I'm doing now - which is 2 weeks at each level). I am wondering:

#1 will anyone join me in this round of JMBR? (1st, 2nd, or whatever round you're on)
#2 for those of you that have repeated, what kind of results are you seeing in the later rounds compared to the first?

    I finished my first round a few weeks ago and started mixing and matching her other workouts. I really didn't enjoy it as much as BR. I have now restarted BR but at a condensed pace. Instead of doing the workouts for 2 weeks before switching I only do the for 1 week. So the 12 week program will now only take six. I like it because I don't get bored with the workouts before switching and my endurance and strength is not at the beginner level, so I don't need the extra time for that. So far I have lost just over 10 lbs since january and have about 10 more to go Hopefully this works out!!! Good Luck!!

    I kinda like that idea cuz the strength is built already. Might have to consider that :) thanks for the tip

    Yeah, I was wondering how people were doing second rounds of it..just uysing heavier weights than the first time or what..because it seems like a step back to go from Phase Three to Phase One, but the one week per workout pair is a good idea.

    I'm currently in phase 3 and already thinking about repeating BR because I like it so much! not sure yet whether to start again right away or do some other workouts for a while... but I've been wondering about that, whether people start again with phase 1 or go right to phase 2?

    I took a break to do other things and almost wish I hadn't. I really like the structure that JMBR provides. I think I'll start from the beginning and vow not to do the 'easy' version and ramp it up where I can.

    I'm going to start Round 1 on June 17th. I am excited to try it. Last weekend, I sat down and watched all the workouts (I like to know what I'm getting into). I know many of you are veterans so I'll be looking to you for inspiration!! :)

    I think the most important thing in this workout is doing it TOGETHER! You can count on others for inspiration and you know exactly what they are talking about when they complain about a certain move or being sore in a weird spot :) I can't wait to start again!! Veteran or not - it will be tough cuz I plan on stepping it up and not modifying (other than for my knees)

    Congrats! It is not easy to stick with a program for 3 months! Well done! Care to post any of your results?

    I too took a break for about 2 weeks and tried mixing and matching her other workouts. I did not like it!!! I agree that the structure that BR provides is awesome! There is no guessing what muscles I am working or if I should be doing anything different...I just put on the workout I am on and work my *kitten* off! I love doing the program at the one week interval instead of the two. Keeps me more motivated!!! Good luck to everyone with your weight loss and toning goals! WE CAN DO IT!

    I will!I did it a year ago and had great results. I'm ready to start again next week. I'm only going to work out five days a week to the BR, though. I'll reserve the other cardio day for playing with my kids, running, or something else.

    I'm eager to get started again.

    I'm in! I shared my DVDs with my sister. She gave me back 1&2 a long time ago, and I can't find them now. I'll be starting with workouts 3&4 and will double up on them (work them for four weeks instead of two).

    It'll be tough, but I really like the structure of the BR. I got sick in the middle of it last time. I want to finish it this time.

    I finished my first round on June 8. In three weeks, I have a 2-week gig playing piano for a summer dance intensive away from home (and away from DVD player and weights). I've decided to do a super-express version of JMBR (once through each workout so one phase per week) so I'll finish right before I leave. Workout 1, Round 2, here I come!
