The Biggest Loser: Cardio Max |
    Cardio Max |
| Another winner from the Biggest Loser Collection. Love them all, so far. The nice thing about this dvd along with the others, is that it is not too "killer", and you can modify it to your level of fitness, as well as all the other ones. Personally, I don't have an issue with the different contestants not being all in sync with each other. That is not a distraction for me, but I guess it can be for others. I feel that any exercise in any of these dvds can be modified to different body types and fitness levels. From beginners, to advanced, it all works. - posted by Bev on 7/15/2010 |

    One hell of a workout. Be ready for sore buns!!! |
| This workout is T-O-U-G-H, especially Jillians' section. I don't know why, but this workout kills my glutes more than any other workout. This workout is pretty solid, but it isn't my favorite. I go to it when I need a serious kick in the rear. No dancing, no mambos, just hard core cardio. One other thing: I'd like to see Jillian/Bob/Kim actually do the entire workout with the contestants. I know they're passionate about what they do, but a little less talking and more doing, please ;-) - posted by Laura on 7/9/2010 |

    Jillian Michaels work outs |
| Oh boy is Jillian Michaels tough but she really works you, I love her work out tapes, everyday Monday through Saturday I workout with Jillian then I power walk, I lost so far 20 lbs. If anyone hasn't try her yet you should. - posted by Diane (rummyqueen) on 6/3/2010 |

    Too Sloppy |
| Yes you can work up a good sweat but for me it's because I am having trouble following the moves. The instructors do not do the moves with the participants. They walk around and talk, talk, talk and you end up watching the moves of the other participants. The participants do not do the moves correctly and I end up getting confused. I do mostly intermediate to advanced workout videos and this one would be right up there if was taught by the instructor. - posted by Margaret on 4/6/2010 |

    What a Sweat |
| Real athletic moves and weights highlight level one. I love it, it challenges me and is helping me get stronger while burning fat. There are no flailing arm moves and dub steps like in old style aerobics. Awesome workout. - posted by gjonisee on 3/31/2010 |

    Not bad! |
| Bob will get your heart rate up and Jillian will keep it there. Kim is a bit boring but I usually just add my own moves in, that keep my heart rate up. As far as the BL cast being all over the place, it's really not complicated choreography. So that aspect of the video doesn't bother me. Each instructor shows you each move so it's not difficult to follow through even when the rest of the cast is struggling. Bottom line, if scenery is really your main concern than maybe your not working out for the right reasons. This is a great workout. - posted by Vanessa on 3/5/2010 |

    Good workout |
| This is a good cardio workout if you don't look at the Biggest Loser cast members. The trainers start the exercises but stop and let the camera span across the cast members; so you're forced to re-wind so that you can review the proper form when the trainers start the exercise. Then don't watch the cast because they're all over the place (some are going to the right while the others are doing the same exercise going to the left). But if you can get past all that you'll get a good workout. - posted by Linda on 1/24/2010 |

    Good Work Out |
| I Thought this was a great work out, I love that it combines the cardio with the weights, for best effect. I Just love Bob on the 1st level, for me at more a beginning level ( I plan to alternate these workouts with lower impact ones ) I thought it was just right. I was worried because I do have knee problems but when they explained the correct way to do the moves, and included lower impact modifications (such as explaining it's ok to not go too low,or showing the jumping jack alternative) I found it was my muscles rather than my knees that was feeling it, which is as it should be. It's great for me to find a good cardio workout where you don't have to jump around like the energizer bunny :) I will be on level one for a while I think, after reviewing the other levels, which should serve me well for some time
Like others I actually loved the fact that it was real people with real difficulties, as opposed to the perfectly in sync robotics of some of the videos out there. It demonstrated what Bob keeps saying, 'just keep moving if you can't do this yet you'll get there' and I enjoy the banter, but if I do get bored with it, there is a 'music only' option :) - posted by Jadia on 11/21/2009 |

    Buy this DVD and get skinny! |
| This is a very good workout video for beginners, intermediate and advanced users. You don't need 60 minutes to burn fat, that person is wrong there. This is high impact and really gets you going, so what if a coupe of the Biggest Loser guys and girls get out of sync a bit and Bob isn't supposed to be doing the exercise the whole time. He is the Instructor and can walk around and instruct, he isn't making fun of anyone.... so many complainers here. This video is great, you can customize it with the warm up, cool down and 3 cardio sessions. I highly recommend this DVD. You wont be disappointed. - posted by Burt on 11/11/2009 |
