So it is no secret that I really like watching reality TV. The Biggest Loser is one of my favorites. Have you ever watched and wondered what it would be like to work out with Bob or Jillian? Me too. I heard about this workout DVD and decided to give it a shot. There are three workouts (levels) and each workout is split into three six minute sessions. 3 minutes strength training, 2 minutes cardio, and 1 minute abs. Doesn't sound like much does it? I didn't think so either.
I exercise very regularly and thought level one would be a breeze. Maybe I would use level one as a warm up and move on quickly to level two. Wow. Was I in for a surprise. It was HARD! And I LIKED it ! Although I was a bit disappointed that she never got up really close to the camera and yelled, "GET UP!"
I'm still not convinced that you can get a complete workout in only 20 minutes. But paired with other things I think this is a great one! Oh and it is really basic too, all you need are a pair of hand weights.

I LOVE that video! It totally kicks my butt! After a week, though, it was awesome to notice that my endurance was up, and I felt a little more ready to tackle level 2.
Good luck with it! We went on vacation in July and I am starting back up with it again this week.

Is it bad to wish that Jillian lived in my closet?! She would need to yell "GET UP" first thing in the morning and at night after a sugar stupor. Let's talk...one day when you do it maybe I could try it with you! Maybe she doesn't scream into the camera cuz she hasn't met me yet :D It may be something I would want to look into! I love the biggest loser!
Where does one find said workout?
I got mine from Amazon.com
I'm glad you can get to my blog again - I made it private because I created a new blog for my jewlery and I didn't want stranger people going back and forth.
