This thread is for anyone and everyone who loves is a fan of Jillian

Welcome all the old-timers and please come and join us new people, it will be great to see you!

Happy JM'ing all :)

Thanks notyummy!

Hi all, after a long lay off I'm back Jillianing properly, 6 nights/week doing NMTZ which I absolutely love. I do half each night and that's working for me.

Very impressed with your conference call whilst Jillianing notyummy ...true dedication to the cause

I was considering trying L2 KB&T today but chickened out after all this talk of one legged burpees; two legged ones are bad enough!

So, I had a go at L1 Ri30. It was ok but I far prefer L1 KB&T. I definitely don't seem to be the type to mix and match videos.

RI30L2 done. OMG

Even the warm up on that one is harder work daddypig
NMTZ done plus 100 clam exercises. I have ditched Tuesday pilates but I have a hours circuit class tonight where the trainer likes to finish us off with Tabata at the end

KB&T L2 D6 and BFBM x4 circuits done

I am on day 23 of the shred and wondering what to move on to. I also do Pilates and kettlebells and I really need to focus on my somewhat flabby abdomen. I was thinking maybe 6W6P would be good to move on to?

Started NMTZ over the weekend and on day 4.
Really liking the changed routines and feeling the difference!
Only doing 3/4 circuits at a time though. Will try the whole 50 min on Saturday!
Thanks for the continued inspiration everyone.

Omg, I was cursing doing NMTZ today at the circuit class focusing in on troubles zones...My poor arse!

Killer L1 today, love it!

RI30L2 done. Again,OMG.

Everyone seems to love KBT. Is it the same 3-2-1 format or more like NMTZ?

Just realised there are too many acronyms in this post. I would ROFL but my arse hurts

I really like the 30DS format where it is all broken down into nice little chunks - are the others similar?

Looking at the reviews on Amazon Ri30 and KB&T seem to get the most glowing praise so I think I'll do one of those next. I really need to target my abs as I have a bit of a skinny fat look and toning my legs has really improved the look of them. They aren't any smaller but the fat is supported by muscle now. I see improvement in my tummy too but it's soooo gradual. But then it's not a race, I've been dieting since last June so if it takes another year then so what as long as I get there in the end.

You are doing fantastically Stunt and very you seem very determined.

Thanks IdKick. I couldn't kick Jillian's ass though, I'm too scared of her.

Blame Daddypig she named me!

Killer is more like NMTZ format- circuits that repeat, but it has cardio intervals mixed within the circuits. It's good as you can't really get bored. I'm also a big fan of 6w6p, where you do one big circuit then repeat, but others don't seem so keen. It really made a big difference to my core strength and I didn't get a six pack but I did get a flat tummy with a little bit of definition (there's still a pic on my profile).

I must do NMTZ a bit more often- I really need to work on my arms as they're still pretty weak, especially shoulders and triceps. I'm going to try a few higher weight low rep exercises too- must sort out a little routine. Add that onto Killer or 6w6p and I'd have a great all round workout.

I reckon Jillian's bark is worse than her bite, you could totally kick her arse .

I might kiss her arse

spinninggirl & stuntnun I too am keen to target the bagel belly - I mean, abs. Everyone seems to rave about Ri30 as being the thing to achieve this with so I am going to try that after 30DS.

Yah....yes I've done Ri30 it is fab and I have ab dents now

Oohdaddypig

6w6p gave me my little ab dents. If I could hold off on the cake and chocolate I'm sure I could get a six pack but I'm just that little bit too greedy and too lazy. I have a tendency towards apple shape too- lots of weight goes on my tummy and not so much on the hips and boobs.

I want ab dents .

I've started developing them with NMTZ! I didn't get on with L2 of 6w6p but to be fair I didn't give it much of a chance

I have a 6 pack/dents etc. sadly no sign of arse dents (unless you count the slight ripples...;-)) but as a pear it was always going to be more challenging for me.

Another absolute mad week work wise, with a sick dd (now I'm proving) as well. Managed 30 mins in cross trainer yesterday and some Tracey Anderson. Grand plans to do a 'Bob' today but was up between 230 and 5am with sick child and lost the will. Forced myself to do L1 Extreme Shed and Shred- I think barring L1 Ripped it's the easiest of her workouts and I wasn't up for anything more!
