BIGGEST LOSER WORKOUT VIDEOS

Options
OMG! I just started doing these workout videos and I think they are amazing! I never would have guessed that in half an hour of doing low impact aerobics I could sweat like such a pig... bah! I just finished doing the Biggest Loser BOOT CAMP video and I really like how it incorporates cardio with stregnth training! The even better part is, I felt like eating bacon and eggs before I did it, and afterwards, a bowl of fruit sounded much more appetizing! GO ME! I also have the Biggest Loser 30-DAY JUMP START video, which gives you 10 mins of different things.

I'm going to be doing them twice a day. Half an hour in the morning, and half an hour in the evening and in a couple weeks I'll come back and let you know how that goes...


Anyways, have any of you tried these? What do you think of them?

    I just learned that my cable provider has Starz on Demand and they have a free section, they offer some of the biggest lose workouts, including the 30 day jump start (haven't tried it yet, but I will) and also the Last Chance Workout, which I LOVE. To be honest one of the things that I really enjoy about the biggest loser videos is that the people are overweight like me and if they can do it so can I. It still kicks my butt though. I am also 8 days in to the 30 day shred which is with Jillian Micheals too and I am in love with that one too. just not looking forward to moving on to level 2 just yet .....good luck!

    I just count it under low impact aerobics, it seems to work, and who knows, maybe I'm burning even more calories than I thought, but I'd rather underestimate than overestimate.

    I had my heart rate monitor/calorie counter on when I was using Biggest loser boot camp level 1, plus warm and cool down today. I thought i'd share the info, incase it ends up being useful to anyone :) It was roughly a 30 minute workout and I burned 290 calories based on my weight, age, ect...I'm 28 and 215lbs, my max heart rate was 162 and my average was 139 :) Hope that helps a bit for when your tracking it or atleast gives you an idea at cals burned :)

    This helps. But I think that it measures calories burned different depending on age and weight. I was wondering - what level does that match up to on the exercise programs? High Impact or Low? I would think it was high since there is so much extreme movement and jumping. Just curious :) Glad that I'm not the only one insane enough to enjoy boot camp!

    I think most of Jillians dvd's get logged under circuit training because she does circuits of aerobic with the strength training.
