Editorial Reviews

In this program it will train all the same muscles that were used in Shape Up - Front but mixing it up to keep the body from adapting by doing a completely different set of exercises. This will really up the burn and whip them into shape.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: HEALTH/FITNESS Rating: NR UPC: 796019766999 Manufacturer No: 76699

A short workout that packs a punch and will whip you up in shape!
If you like endurance weight training with short cardio bursts then you will enjoy these workouts! I have all 4 of Jillian's endurance strength training DVDS and they are very good especially when combined with 30-45 mins. cardio. The Maximize Full Frontal DVD is a little more intense than Jillian's Shape Up Front DVD; it has more core work, more one-leg moves and the cardio segments always use dumbbells. The Maximize Back In Action DVD is also a little more intense than Jillian's Shape Up Backside DVD; it has more core work, harder exercises and additional power moves. All 4 DVDs are an excellent buy and since they are all short workouts, you can easily combine them with cardio for a well-rounded 60 minute workout. Note: You will not like Jillian's workouts if you prefer to go heavy with weights.

I have never actually seen the Biggest Loser show, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE Jillian Michaels' workout DVD's. I am in moderately good shape, and they are still quite challenging. Each 20-25 minute workout has a 3-5 minute warm-up, two cycles of exercises of which you do two sets, and a 2-3 minute cool-down. This means that you are constantly switching between different muscle groups, helping to burn fat by keeping an elevated heartrate. The cardio-kick boxing DVD is also great! These workouts have definitely served to get me into better shape, both cardio- and strength-wise, although I wish they had a little more ab work. I like Jillian's personality-- particularly the fact that she is not all bubble-gummy like many workout video instructors-- and the way she keeps you motivated througout the program. I highly recommend getting all five DVD's-- the four strength workouts and the cardio kick-boxing DVD.
