    Ive just started using it. Done it two days in a row and planning to do it again tonight! I logged it under circut training for 60 mins and adjusted the calories MFP gave from 615 to 515. I wear a HR band so my numbers are more accurate than MFP.
    I think its really hard work and will kick your *kitten*, she says 7 circuits, but theres no rest apart from the occasional 5 second break!!

    I use this one, it's one of my favorites. Did a little dance the day I was finally able to get through all of the circuits. And like the poster above said, I use a HRM, so I have created my own exercise for when I do this DVD and log the minutes/calories that way.

    used it. It's def a good workout. I didn't use it as a program or anything just as an at home workout.

    I love this one - definitely one of my favourites :) I use my HRM to work out calories burned so can't help there. At first I found it really tough but quite quickly got into it and now can do it all the way through no problem :) Good luck and enjoy!

    I've had it for a while now, and use do it pretty often. I love it.
    I used to log it as circuit training, but when I bought an hrm I found out I was burning more calories than I thought!
    Either way, I really enjoy it!

    I personally love this DVD of hers. It is such a great cardio workout! I've seen great results from doing Jillian video's in general (not just this one). She amazing!

    I LOVE this workout! It's the first one of hers I ever did-- I used to do it on the regular about 2 years ago. It's very challenging but you get amazing results-- my thighs got VERY strong/toned. Do it!

    This is on of my favorite JM videos. I find that it moves along quickly. I rotate several videos at a time, so I can't say one has produced X-results. I do wear a heart rate monitor and as others have said I burned more calories than MFP told me to do. A HRM is a good investment for sure. JM videos are not really expensive so they are worth it! Good luck!

    I did it with alternating No More Trouble Zones everyday. And one day rest....
    I lost 8lbs in a month. It's such a good workout. But being a mom to an 8 month, I couldn't commit to about an hour a half (including warm up, cool down and shower) everyday.

    I know what you mean my little one is 3 in august and during the day I have no time to blink let alone work out so I plan during the day what to do in the evening once she is in bed.

    This was my first Jillian Michaels dvd and I loved it! I've done it so much now it almost seems easy though but it's still an awesome workout. Very good cardio and not as challenging as her other videos which is awesome since I'm currently transitioning between this video and Extreme Shed and Shred (which by the way is extremely challenging and leaves my body extremely sore)

    I LOVE that dvd.. I was doing multiple things for about 10 weeks and having some changes on the scale and measure tape,, but when I found the banish fat boost Matab... I KNEW it was the one for me... I do it at least 4 -5 times a week and I noticed the most changes after doing her workouts for a few weeks. I am not ready to post pics yet but have lost 20 pounds and about 25 inches overall.
    I have bought more of her dvd's now and am starting to rotate which them so I wont get bored. Her extreme shed and shred is kicking my butt too ! I love it !
    going to start incorporating more weights with her dvd's to increase the intensity...
    good luck and like Jillian always says "if you want to see results , you gotta work for it"
