About the Trainer

Jillian Michaels is a pretty famous person, especially to anyone who has ever seen The Biggest Loser. She just made the 2013 list for one of most influential people in the fitness world and has held two training certificates since 1993 from the National Exercise & Sports Trainers Association (NESTA) and Aerobics and Fitness Association of America (AFAA). In addition she is Kettlebell Concepts certified. Jillian has also developed a continuing education series for trainers with AFAA and holds a nutrition and wellness consultant certificate with the American Fitness Professionals and Associates (AFPA).
She's also a mommy like a lot of people reading this and is a proud and out lesbian.
How I feel about Jillian Michaels: I LOVE her. She's an amazing trainer and her workouts make me so sore I can't sit down and they're only 20 minutes! I wish she didn't talk as much through her DVDs, but it's a fair trade off.

About the Workout

That's me about ten minutes after 30 Day Shred Level One.
The concept behind this workout is Jillian's 3-2-1 system. 3 minutes of strength training (weight bearing exercises), 2 minutes of cardio, and 1 minute of abs. You start out on level one and as you progress, increase to level two, then three.
Jillian doesn't perform much in the DVD (hence the comment I made about talking), but the two ladies in the back do, and that's who you follow. Natalie (the dark haired girl) is for unmodified examples, and then other woman is for modified versions. None of the moves are really difficult, though, so you shouldn't need a modified version unless you've suffered an injury or you're REALLY out of shape. Basically, if a 400 pound person can do a jumping jack, so can you.
Would I recommend this: Most definitely. Especially for someone just starting to workout. The DVD is easy, and for those who are worried about their food, Jillian created a diet plan for 30 Day Shred and Ripped in 30 that you can find here. As if that's not enough, you don't even have to buy the DVD to try it. You can find the workout for Level One on Youtube by clicking this link: Level One
