Jillian Michaels, the trainer from NBC's The Biggest Loser and self-proclaimed "TV's toughest fitness guru," runs through circuit training like a drill sergeant on caffeine. Her theory is to keep moving in between exercises to burn twice as many calories, so she cycles her team through sumo squats, mountain climbers, jump ropes, shoulder raises and bicycle moves without taking a breath. If she doesn't think one of her comrades is picking up his knees high enough, she makes everyone do 30 more, with a sadistic grin. As a result, you can almost literally watch the muscle burn. Michaels' Shape-Up Front DVD works out the chest, shoulders, triceps and quads. It also requires two props: a bench-style exercise step and light dumbbells. The DVD features include printable diet/exercise logs, nutrition tips and recipes. Despite a lower-level option, it isn't for anyone looking for a low-impact aerobic workout. --Ellen A. Kim

 Good, short workout best as an add-in to your other workouts October 5, 2008
T. Lammey (West Grove, PA)
This Cardio Kickbox workout it best used as an addition to your other cardio and weight workouts. It is a quick 20 minute workout that Jillian recommends using in the middle of the week to take a break from weight workouts.
I'm a 45 yr. old working mother with three kids. I only have an hour in the morning to exercise/stretch/cooldown/shower so I was looking for something short but intense to help me lose these last 10 lbs.
I gave this 3 stars because I would prefer it to be 30-35 minutes. It's a little too short. I'm in pretty decent shape, but I do work up a sweat. I feel that it doesn't work any particular muscle group intensely, but more of an all-over workout. You work some on your obliques, your legs a bit, but nothing too intensly. This is more of a cardio workout, as it says in the title. I do like to use this in the middle of the week to break up harder workouts that use weights. I also have her 30 Day Shred workout and use that at least two to three days/week. That includes weights for the workout.
The other reason I gave it 3 stars is that she is a bit annoying in this. She does a lot of giggling and even takes a break in the middle to put her hair back. It seems like they started taping this and just went with the first take. It's not as professional as some other tapes. But, it you can get past that then it's an OK workout to use to give yourself a change of pace.

 Looks like elementary school gym class September 6, 2008

So boring. Kick to the front, kick to the back, do some jumping jacks. Reminds of elementary school the way this is done. No combination moves that you see in kickboxing- jab, knee, front kick, etc. If this was an unknown, it would not have made it into the marketplace. Avoid this only if you want something super easy. I'm glad I got it cheap.
AN AWESOME WORKOUT THAT WILL KICK YOUR BUTT! September 5, 2008

I usually get bored or frustrated with videos. They are either too complicated or too dull. These dvd's kicked my butt from day one, and the moves aren't too complicated at all. The workouts are short, and results come quickly.
