- Good exercises, annoyng instructor
"Hey there my brutha!" - This is your instructor tryin' ta be a cool gangster yo.
I don't watch "The Biggest Loser" but Jillians videos seem to be very popular and I needed some good beginner workouts. She goes through the circuits slow enough to follow and the workouts themselves are actually really helpful and not too crazy. Her pacing really helps beginners and she actually explains step by step how to do something, which is nice.

- Great for a focused strength workout
I have had this DVD for about a month now and I love it.The first couple times through it was difficult but I am already mastering the moves and getting stronger.I still feel some muscle soreness the day after I do them as well as find myself a bit shaky for a few hours that same day.Here are the pros follwed by the cons I have found since owning it.
Pros:
Two workouts for the price of one.
Focus on front or back side muscles or an all over workout if you go through both in ... Read More

- Great for total novice, not for experienced exercisers
This would be fantastic for someone who is just starting a work out program.I've worked out for years, but wanted to see what Jillian's videos were all about.She does an excellent job of explaining the purpose behind every exercise and she does talk about proper form.That said, there's just too much talk and too much time between exercises for someone who just wants to burn through the routines and keep their heart rate up.

- This Video Stinks
To do this video you need two sets of weights, a step, and a chair.I think a lot of these moves aren't right for beginners (without having a fitness instructor with you) because they are high impact, and it would be really easy to hurt yourself if you do the moves incorrectly.Also, Jillian seems like she's just kind of winging it every time she talks...like there is no script. All of the exercises are disjointed...it would be very hard to just pop this DVD in a get a good workout because of all of ... Read More

- Great Beginners Workouts
The workouts here really do target your front and back well.The fronside routine works on your arms and abs while the backside works your legs and glutes.
The instruction is very clear for the moves and what they are doing to help you.I am still a beginner for the most part in many of the home exercise DVDs and I found this one perfect combination.Jillian is very good in this DVD and I am going to pick up the Shred at some point based on this.
