What has Jillian done for you?

In various threads I have seen people mention that they are getting results from Jillian's workouts, in particular her newer ones.

I am just starting alternating running with NMTZ and hope to get results as well.

I am always motivated by the success of others so I would love to hear how you are using her workouts and what the results have been.

Looking forward to your posts!

I am also running/power walking and doing Jillian (mostly NMTZ and BFBM). What I'm noticing is my legs are getting very "cut", my booty is rising, and my upper body is getting a more sculpted look. Never ever thought these workouts could deliver, but they are!

I've said this in other threads but I'll repost here what my current regime is.

Prior to this, I was doing mostly just Firm and some random yoga and pilates. Firm was totally without thoughtful rotation, just whatever was handy on that particular day, both old and newer titles. I was also doing some stuff from ETV without much regard for what it was, just so I was moving every day.

Then I tried 30-Day Shred based on various recommendations, as well as NMTZ and the metabolism one. At first, I thought she was scary, but then I heard so many raves I had to test out a true cycle of 30DS and get up to level 3.

Before that, I had been on a weight/fitness plateau. When I began doing my 30DS rotation, I dropped 4 lbs. NOTHING ELSE CHANGED. I am not on a d***, but I eat I'd say 90% super healthy, or at least as close to that as I can manage.

I'm on a 60-day plan with 30DS, doing 10 iterations of each level before moving on to the next. I do 30DS every other day, and on the day off I rotate between a three-mile Leslie Sansone w/o, a random w/o from my collection, and a kind of "surprise" w/o from whatever's next on my Netflix queue. This way, I still feel like I'm getting a lot of variety, I can still feed my need to be "random," but I'm also doing one specific method with great regularity. Oh, and after every 30DS w/o, I do between 15 and 60 minutes of either yoga or pilates, because the one area I think Jillian scrimps on is stretching.

I'll be moving on to level 2 next Wednesday. I'm excited.

Isn't it awful? I buy workouts faster than I can do them!

ETA: I have all of hers, and I've done Shred & the Maximizes 1x each. Sad but true...

Jillian finally got me to break my plateau and shrank my meno pot

I am alternating 4 weeks with Jillian, 4 weeks with Barry for my morning workouts, and 4 to 5 miles with Leslie at lunch since I sit all day

Jillian
