Time graph for Jillian Michaels: Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism
A no nonsense series of easy-to-follow aero/tone intervals led by “The Biggest Loser” trainer. As always, Jillian is definitely “forceful,” but she’s also surprisingly supportive (she really wants you to succeed). The cardio segments feature non-dancy, athletic moves like kickboxing, calisthenic jacks and plyometric jumps. The core-focused body-sculpting includes both standing and floor moves. Jillian skillfully alternates upper and lower-body exercises to keep your heart rate elevated and your blood pumping. For maximum results, each circuit is done once, then repeated at a slightly higher intensity (“with intention”). ©2008. DVD has: Chapter menus, Music only option, Region 1.

Jillian Michaels: Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism

The best for cardio+abs+upper and lower body (55 min)
I just love this one and her, No more trouble zones, I have been doing a rotation for about 3 months, and I can see the difference on my body.(still looking for something similar, they say you can't do the same thing over and over). I am a very picky person when it comes to buying an exercise DVD. Buy it. - posted by Star on 3/9/2010
Fantastic workout!
I do this one in rotation with her no trouble zone dvd.. they're both great workouts true the music isn't all that great but if you want great music buy a cd if you want a great workout that gets your heart rate up buy this dvd...I look forward to getting her yoga dvd!!! - posted by Hannah on 3/8/2010
This one really gets my heart rate up!!!
I am a solid inter/advanced level exerciser who works out at home 6-7 days per week. I am happy to say that, due to years of consistently working out, I can usually keep up very well with the younger girls in these DVDs. This workout (for me) is the most extreme one in my collection! One thing that tells me this is extreme: when I use my heart monitor, this one is the only DVD that gets my heart rate up to 150 bpm! The only problem I have with this workout is that it is a bit too high-impact for my liking. Too much jumping around. Otherwise, it is definitely a favorite of mine! - posted by Pam on 3/3/2010
I love it!!!!
To the last review, don't toss this great video based on Jillian's looks or her dress during the workout video. Remember...you're working out not because of her but because YOU want to! Her appearance has nothing to do with this butt-kicking workout. Keep at it! Of course, since she is the main workout specialist in the video, she will walk around and point things out to the viewers. That's her job! Don't hate...just embrace! - posted by Gina on 2/20/2010
I agree - This is just too boring
I agree with the reviewers that said the fun is missing. Absolutely true. It's a workout that gets your heart rate up but that's it. I expect good music, an instructor that actually works out (instead of walking around yapping) and more variety and fun. Her appearance (from the corn-rowed hair to the pants that are beyond low-rise) and tough-girl attitude is annoying. Anyway, I have 100s of workouts to choose from, and this one is not worth keeping. - posted by holly on 2/18/2010
Intense!
This video along with No More Trouble Zones has made me a real fan of Jillian Michaels. She gets the job done and doesn't let me "phone it in." I am a solid intemediate exerciser. This is a real challenge for me. I have not been able to complete the whole workout without pausing a few times between circuits. This is a perfect complement to No More Trouble Zones. I have notice a real improvement in my endurance and strength. - posted by Laura on 2/6/2010
Will get you results FAST!!
I have been working out 7 days a week for at least an hour a day for almost two years. This DVD has taken my body to biki ready (I have four kids) and sculpted me like no other DVD (I have many) using it 3xs per week for 8 weeks. I saw results, though, much faster. I also use her 30 day shred and love that too. If you need to break through and get rid of that stubborn lower belly fat, get this one! It will deliver results!! - posted by Lynne on 1/30/2010
WOW!!!
This is an intense workout and just what I needed to get me past my plateau. Like other users of this DVD I have had to work up to not pausing between some of the circuits. I get totally out of breath on some of them. Also, I love that you are burning mega calories while getting some toning in with the plyometric moves. This is tough...but so good. Would have had 5 stars if the music was better. That final circuit has the worst music...but I can get past that because I know this is an effective workout. Hopefully, Jillian will produce more videos...but please get some good music! - posted by Stefanie on 1/21/2010
TOUGH, EFFECTIVE...just what I was hoping it would be!
Love this DVD! It is tough but do-able. It is longer than the 30 Day Shred but seemed less intense to me. Don't get me wrong, it is tough and highly effective! This one is broken down into segments and you can do them all or just pick and choose. One way I like to do this one is to do segments 1-4 and then a different DVD to finish my workout, or 4-7 and then something else. All 7 segments at once will definitely test your endurance! Jillian explains each exercise well and the choreography is easy to follow. You will get results with this one! - posted by Julie (Busy Mom of Seven Gets in Shape) on 1/20/2010
great workout,but
This is a great cardio workout, it gets your heart rate up and you sweat. My problem with it is that I find it boring and the music sucks so it only makes it into my rotation once in awhile. There are so many other videos you can do that give you an awesome cardio workout but have rockin music and I tend to gravitate towards those instead . - posted by Maria on 1/18/2010

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.
sample time 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).
Music only option
X
This feature allows you to play only the music, without any cuing (after you’ve learned the movements and you just want to do the workout without listening to the instruction).
Region 1
X
This DVD is designed for US and Canadian DVD players. It will NOT play in most foreign country players.
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.

Floor aerobics & toning
X
Definition: Includes two workout activities. The aerobics segments are fast-paced standing movements like marching, dancing and jumping. These segments require no equipment. The toning sections are slow, controlled movements working against a 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.
