Body Revolution

I am on my first week of Phase Two. I am really loving it. Not a huge weight change for me but serious differences in stamina, strength and inches.
She pushes you really well and has great variations on the exercises.
The different phases really step up the exercises, the difficulty level is significant but not anything that cannot be done
Hope this was helpful

It's awesome. On week nine. Love the rotation of exercises and the fact that it's a short workout every day. Makes it easy to push through.

I didn't like it at all. I think that the workouts go sooooo slowly. I much prefer TurboFire or Jillian's Yoga Meltdown. It is a good workout and a good program though.

I did six week six pack and 30 DS before body revolution. It gets harder fast but I found the first two weeks easy and threw in some extra workouts with some other of her DVDs every other day. Not the case now that I am at week nine.

I am 3 workouts away from completing my 90 days on Body Revolution. I did not follow the meal plan, only the workouts since I eat healthy as it is. I do other Jillian workouts all the time so Phase 1 was pretty easy for me. I debated whether I should skip it or cut it down to 2 weeks, ultimately I decided to go ahead and do the program as it was designed. I just used heavier weights and did the advanced moves during that Phase. If I cycle through BR again, I probably would shorten Phase 1. I doubt I would ever do Cardio 1 again though, I would run or do a different cardio disc on cardio days.

I enjoyed most of the workouts. I really liked that I was only repeating discs every 3 days and then changing the whole set every 2 weeks. That kept things fresh. This was the first workout that I had ever used a cable for. I did not love the cable. I spent a considerable amount of time trying to get the cable untangled before and after each exercise. I also got it tangled in my hair once. There wasn't a ton of cable exercises so it was tolerable. I used 5, 6, 8 and 10lb weights depending on the exercise and felt that I was close to needing 12's or maybe even 15's. I plan on doing Ripped in 30 with Banish Fat Boot Metabolism for the next 6 weeks and then another round of BR.

Since it is a 90 day program I was concerned that I might get bored, but I have not gotten bored once. I am in week 8 of BR and have really enjoyed it. I have learned one thing...I don't like planks. LOL I have rarely done the Cardio routines just because I use the cardio days to run. It has really helped me lose weight and tone. Good luck with it!

I completed this program 3 times. I saw GREAT results and I loved it so much. I would recommend it to anyone. I decided after round 3 that I wanted to start lifting heavy so I joined a gym but I will still incorporate the dvd's in when I cant make it to the gym or just for a fun extra bonus workout. I give this program credit for changing my life and making exercise something I look forward to rather than something I had to do or loathed or looked at like a chore. I didn't have much weight to lose (maybe 10-15 lbs), my goal was to just better myself in whatever way that meant. I ended up losing 15 lbs with this program and then gaining some back when I started lifting, but my clothes are smaller and so are my measurements and that's all that matters. Good luck to you.

I'm a huge Jillian fan and am currently on Week 7 of BR. I am already feeling stronger and more toned! I love this workout because you are only doing each workout like 4 times (twice a week for 2 weeks). You don't get bored doing the same level over for 6-10 days like 30DS or RI30. I will probably try PiYo after I'm done with this program but I will definitely be doing it again afterwards!
