5.0 out of 5 stars Another winner! March 6, 2012

By Michelle Way

Format:DVD

I bought this DVD at Target yesterday and did Level 1 (Upper Body) and Level 3 (Abs) this morning. I found them to be challenging but also kind of fun (and fun isn't usually a word I use when describing a Jillian Michael's workout lol). It was nice to see Anita and Natalie from 30-Day Shred again too. These workouts really are only 20 minutes each but as usual Jillian doesn't waste a single minute. You get a good blend of cardio (mostly kickboxing obviously but there are also things like butt-kicks and suicide runs) and sculpting (rows, flies, headbangers) and the time flies by. Some days I just don't have time to do a long workout but now with these I don't really have an excuse because they are only 20 minutes each! There were some exercises in the Ab workout that I've never done before which is always a nice surprise. I am a huge fan of Jillian's workouts and this one is no different. I highly recommend it!

Update 3/8/12: I did Level 2 (Lower Body) this morning and LOVED it! Like the other levels the time flies by and it's never boring. I felt so energized when I was finished and I was sweating a lot so I know I burned a bunch of calories. I really liked the backward lunge/forward kick combo. The dreaded jump squats make an appearance and even though I hate them I'm glad they're on there because they are so effective. This DVD is one of Jillian's best for sure.

5.0 out of 5 stars 3 fast workouts March 10, 2012

By Peter Tsang TOP 500 REVIEWER

Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase

This DVD contains 3 fast paced and high impact workouts. Jillian Michaels works with 6 other lean and toned ladies, doing boxing and kicking moves. The first two workouts are fairly easy to follow, with the third workout containing challenging and more complex moves. There is also a tutorial.

In all workouts, each exercise is done for about 30 seconds. Ms. Michael moves fast and you do need some space to move your body and kick your legs. The workouts got my heart pumping and my body sweating. Finally, as others have mentioned, both sides of the body are not always worked evenly, (but I think that's normal in regular kickboxing, where one side is more dominant than the other).

Here are the time outlines.

Workout 1 (20:59)
Workout 2 (20:47)
Workout 3 (21:57)
Tutorial (14:25)

Here are the breakdowns for the first two workouts.

Workout 1 is the only workout which uses a pair of 8 pound dumbbells. Each round is repeated twice.

Workout 3 is another kickboxing workout, with a few abdominal exercises.

Here are most of the abs exercises.

Bicycle crunch
Mountain climber
Fast situps
Tuck and sprawl
Back kick (donkey kick)

Workout 3 contains both simple moves and more complex kickboxing moves which confused me because it contained quite a few steps. If I could not memorize the moves, I just kicked my legs and jabbed my arms. For those who want to study the moves or do prep work for the workouts, there is a tutorial.

The Tutorial covers the following topics.

Stance

Jab
Cross
Hook
Upper cut

Front kick or push kick
Round kick
Spinning round kick
Outside crescent kick
Stepping outside crescent kick
Slide-up side kick
Spinning side kick
Back kick front leg
Back kick back leg

4.0 out of 5 stars Another Good Workout March 5, 2012

By aussieb

Format:DVD

Found this on sale early at local book store so grabbed. Someone must have messed up and stocked early.

Similar to her other 20 minute workouts - there are 3 levels and kickboxing it is. I had a good sweat after doing level 1 and really good one when I did 1 & 2 together. I like that there are more girls and they do the workout with great intensity.

So while I did like it and will put in my rotation, being an avid Tae-boer did not find it extremely challenging. There are many similarities but I find I was increasing tempo on my own for some of the exercises as I'm used to being able to do more advanced versions from my Tae-bo days. It is a nice change but would not put as one of my favorite JM's one - Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism is still top of the list for me.
