Due to busy family schedule this week, I'm unable to get to the gym so I bought this hoping it's a good one to get a workout in those days I can't go.
Anyone have success with this? I wish I could afford a Shaun T Insanity type but this was more in the price range I have right now.
Thanks y'all. :)

    Its a great workout. I made it to day 17 2 years ago, and I couldn't believe the changes in that short time. I had poor form on side lunges and hurt my knee so I stopped. I have started it several times since, but I haven't completed it. You will more likely lose inches more than pounds. I recommend it!

    Do it! I can't recommend it enough (unless you have a knee or back injury). That was my restart to exercise a couple years ago. I bought Insanity, but I will build up to it later. I had to stop exercise for health reasons, but restarted again this January with more Jillian Michaels (Body Revolution this time) because I love her workouts so much!

    It's a great workout especially if you don't have a lot of time or the inclination to get into a gym.

    Great workout. Great results as long as you challenge yourself. Scale didn't move much but lost 14 inches overall! Saw definition in my abs & first time in a while I saw my obliques.

    I paired the dvd with an additional 45-60mins on the elliptical.

    Hope you enjoy it.

    Oh good. I'm happy to see the positive responses. I'm hoping to add this to my cardio routine as well. All I do is the elliptical at the gym, feel like I need a bit more.

    This video is intense. By the end I would be in a fetal position.. Sobbing.. Lol. Seriously though tough workout and you see results when you're eating well.

    I did it for the full 30 days and definitely saw results, but the scale didn't move much. But I felt so much stronger and my clothes fit better. The only thing I didn't like was doing the same thing for 10 days in a row...drove me crazy, lol. If I ever start it up again, I would mix the levels up.

    It is GREAT. Take your measurements. The weight loss may be small to you (maybe 4 pounds in a month when I did it) but the inches lost are HUGE. Also, pay attention to your pushups and jumping jacks. You will grow stronger, and it is easy to forget that when the scale doesn't budge. Have a buddy take weekly pictures. You will see a difference. PS my chiropractor says I can start this again next week and I can't wait (as previously stated it can be hard on the knees as well as the back and neck and I have to be careful there). When I did it before, I alternated one day of shred and 1 day of cardio, usually her kickbox dvd which is also excellent. I did 6 workouts a week and 1 off day. I couldn't do it every day back to back because I felt sore. Some do, some don't, she never recommends that anyways. It is a great whole body workout.

    30DS is awesome, I've gotten awesome results each time I've done it! It helped me lose 50 lb. :smile: I've started my 3rd round now, on day 3 of level one! Definitely take your measurements, you'll see a huge difference there!
