Time graph for Jari Love's Get Ripped 1000 Workout

A well-cued, weight-room-style interval program. It alternates hi-rep body-sculpting with ultra-basic cardio (never fancy, always very challenging). The 3 to 5-minute toning segments are classic Jari Love — proven barbell, dumbbell and floor routines. They include high-rep counts of both multi-muscle and isolated-muscle exercises (e.g. 70 straight push-ups!). If that isn’t enough to raise your heart rate, the 60 to 90-second “aerobic” intervals certainly will. To maintain their intensity, Jari avoids regular step choreography. Instead, she pushes you to the max with just one basic “move” per segment (e.g. a non-stop “up, up, down, down” series). Requires 2 to 10 lb. dumbbells and barbells. Includes 18 minutes of tips on technique, diet and metabolism. ©2006. DVD has: Chapter menus.

Jari Love's Get Ripped 1000 Workout

I learned that I need more variety
There's no question that this would be an effective program if used regularly. I also liked Jari's constant encouragement and sincere personality. However, doing this workout made me aware that I need more variety in a workout. The million reps of the same thing over and over (e.g., plies with bicep curls) had me staring imploringly at the clock. I realize the million reps are what distinguish Jari's programs from others and make it so effective. However, a workout isn't effective if I don't do it regularly -- and I just don't enjoy this enough to do so. - posted by Barbara U. on 2/27/2010
Fantastic Muscle/Cardio workout
Don't be mistaken that this is a weight workout with some cardio. It's all cardio because of how many sets you do, your heart rate naturally rises. It's tough but basic moves and you'll feel the difference - trust me. - posted by Camden Smith on 2/27/2010
solid interval training
My earlier reservations about this DVD seem to have disappeared! I didn’t like not having enough time to re-position the step – until I realized that it’s not really necessary to constantly change the step position, just my position on the step (easy enough even though my workout area is fairly small). I thought the stretches at the end of each segment were unnecessary – but really, they’re quick stretches that feel good and don’t kill my heart rate. I thought 70 push-ups (even when done in segments) was overkill – until the day came when I actually accomplished it – hoo boy was I ever proud of myself! With this DVD I feel like I truly get the benefits of both muscle-conditioning and cardio – well done Jari! - posted by Susan W. on 1/26/2010
Cardio addict? Give it a chance- the results are worth it
The first time I did this workout, I HATED it. I'm an advanced exerciser and a cardio maniac whose routine workouts are super high-intensity, fast-paced sweatfests (think Amy Bento and Cathe Friedrich). Every aspect of Get Ripped 1000 annoyed me- the slow pace, the high reps, Jari's calm (some say boring) style, Jari's picture-perfect makeup and hairdo, the simple choreography, etc. Well, recently I gave this one another try. Once I got past the grievances I listed above, it was enjoyable, challenging, and actually kept my heart rate up in the aerobic zone throughout (the key is in using appropriate weights for your fitness level). The big surprise, however, occurred the next day: not only was I sore, I was EXHAUSTED. This interval training stuff works, and it broke a plateau I didn't even know I was on. Within two weeks, my muscle tone had improved dramatically- especially in my abs and biceps. I am hooked and this is now part of my regular routine. Those who say this is not a challenging workout are not using appropriately heavy weights- use weights that keep your heart rate up and fatigue you, and you will see results. You might not feel that intense cardio burn during and immediately after the workout, but you WILL feel how hard you worked the next day, and your body will react to and improve from this workout. - posted by neatski on 1/12/2010
Love this workout!
I've done a lot of exercise videos. This is the best cardio/weight combo workout I've ever done. Your heart rate gets up during the warm up and stays there. The moves are not complicated and it's not hard on the knees. I like that with every segment, there is at least one person in the background doing a modified exercise that Jari is doing. In case it's too difficult. - posted by Vanessa on 12/9/2009
Best Ripped DVD
I am a 39 year old advanced home exerciser. This is my favorite Jari Love video. I really think it has helped to improve my fitness, the first time I did it a few years ago I had to pause a few times during the video to catch my breath. Since then, I have ran a 1/2 marathon and have discovered Cathe. I did Ripped 1000 again last week, and I now do it with heavier weights than Jari and the others (well not the guy) and carry on the cardio while she does the stretching, so it still keeps me challenged. I came to read these reviews because I bought the Extremely Ripped DVD and REALLY didn't like it. I don't like that Jari jokes around, doesn't seem to be giving it her all, has poor form... so I am comparing the reviews for Ripped 1000 and Extremely Ripped to know if I am going to bother with the new Extremely Ripped 1000. Any advice? BTW, if you don't like to move the step, just leave it the way it is and do the cardio without facing the TV! Another reviewer gave me the idea a long time ago... should have thought it myself!!! - posted by Sandra on 11/18/2009
GO, JARI !!!
I haven't had this DVD for very long but it's become one of the favorites in my rotation. I consider myself an advanced exerciser and work out 4 or 5 times a week, including DVDs at home, kick boxing, step aerobics and weight training at the gym and even teaching some of my own classes (am a certified instructor). All I can say about this is you get out of it what you put in. It's an intense workout and an excellent one. As far as some of the other comments...come on guys! If you don't like the quick transitions, get your equipment organized a little before you work out. If you feel that the jumping jacks, and some of the other moves are a little awkward on the step, do them on the floor. That's one of the great benefits of working out at home...you can modify to suit your needs, abilities and just the mood you're in for the day, right? While I agree that most people are not going to burn 1,000 calories doing the workout (I'm sure I didn't) I guess you can look at it as a goal. If you get to the point where you can do this workout "full steam" you WILL burn 1,000 (smile)! - posted by bunny on 11/12/2009
Not Impressed
I would consider this more of an intermediate workout. If you like Cathe workouts...you probably won't care for this. I have liked other video's that Jari has done but this is by far my least favorite. She does way too much stretching. After everything...stretch...stretch. It really takes away from the challenge because your heart rate keeps dropping with all the stretching. It is an overall weight workout but barely touches on each body part so I didn't really feel like I got a good workout for each muscle group. - posted by Christie on 10/27/2009
Love it - want another
The comment on here saying if you are advanced this isn't for you....I'd say I'm fairly advanced and it doesn't kill me if that's what you are looking for but if you need a boost this is it. HOWEVER - you have to choose weights that challenge you. You get what you put into it - I'm buying the next step up and it has helped me lose the 5lbs that wouldn't go anywhere - until Jari Love found it. - posted by Ashley on 10/27/2009
Don't even bother!
I do not recommend this to anyone who is considered advanced. This would be a complete waste of time for you. Her monotone voice and unexcitable instructions do not even allow you to burn 1/4 of the 1000 calories per workout it claims to. I will not buy another Jeri Love video! - posted by Amy on 9/27/2009

Reading a Time Graph
X
Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.
sample time graph
Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.

Chapter menus
X
You can play only the individual workout segments you want by picking them off a chapter menu (one at a time).
Level
X
Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.

Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).

Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.

Aerobics impact
X
Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.

Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.

Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.

Aerobics choreography
X
Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.

Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.

Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.

Toning emphasis
X
Upper body: Arms, chest and back.

Lower Body: Legs, thighs, hips and buttocks.

Abs: Abdominals (stomach), core and sometimes lower back.

Total body: Tones all three of the above muscle groups.

Step aerobics & toning
X
Definition: Includes two workout activities. The step aerobics segments involve stepping up and down on a platform. The moves range from simple stepping to more choreographed exercises. These segments require a step bench platform. The toning sections are slow, controlled movements working against resistance. These may include Pilates and weight training.

Benefits: The combination of both activities provides a balanced workout. The aerobics burns calories, strengthens your heart and increases stamina. The toning builds lean muscles, increases your metabolism and makes everyday activities easier.
