quick question

what would be better

doing a different jillan dvd each day - or doing a week on one then switching?

i was thinking of doing 5 days of one of the 30 min workouts, then at the weekend do BFBM or NMTZ, then the next week change the weekly one etc
(ie - WK 1 30DSL1, WK2 6WK6PK, WK 3 RIPPED IN 30, WK 4 BUNS AND THIGHS - Then repeat but up the level etc)

any thoughts?

    I stick with two DVD's everyother day for a few weeks then switch it up. Now I am doing Killer Buns and Thighs and 6 week 6 pack but I will probably switch it up in a few weeks to BFBM and Ripped in 30 everyother day. Just to keep it changing and not do the same thing all the time!

    I just got ripped in 30, but am at a loss to find it in the excercise log. Anyone know what to look under?

    I wonder how others do it too. I get bored easy and have a hard time sticking to one dvd for so long.

    There's an option to manually add an exercise if you can't find it by searching. That's how I logged Ripped in 30 when I did it. By the way, welcome to MFP! :flowerforyou:

    Thanks.
    Could you give me an idea of calories burned though? Or does it come up automatically?
    Did you log it under cardio or strength? I guess its different for everyone depending on how hard they work during the vid.

    I log mine under circuit training until I can get a Heart rate monitor
