 Good Exercises April 4, 2008

I think I must own every exercise and diet-related book out there. I have these huge volumes filled with an exercise to work every possible angle of every muscle 6 different ways... You'd think from reading them I would be a fountain of knowledge, but that's not so. Sometimes you just need to know what exercises work, and how to combine them in an effective program. Jillian provides you with just that. My favorite portion of the book was the 12 week exercise program. I like how it changes every two weeks - a great way to keep surprising your body and avoid a plateau.
The reason why I gave the book four stars instead of five is because I think that you can find better diet information elsewhere. I did a lot of research to find metabolic typing and it seems that it is something that is not backed by a whole lot of science. You really have to rely on anecdote for this one - "if it works for other people, it may work for me!" Still, any diet will work if you're restricting calories, and some people have had a lot of success.

I personally don't think this book is necessary for anyone familiar with basic weight training exercises or who has basic nutritional knowledge. Jillian is inspiring and knows her stuff. This book was too basic for my needs.
Awesome! February 25, 2008

I just love Jillian Michael's tough love approach to losing weight. Her book made perfect sense so I applied all her techniques. I did gain weight however I have lost inches & I'm eating healthier than I was before. I'll take a toned 10 over a flabby 7 any day.
