Review Of The 30 Day Shred With Jillian Michaels

When that last 10 pounds stubbornly remains, and the bathroom scale stays stuck in one spot, grab "The 30 Day Shred" by Jillian Michaels. Be prepared. Michaels tells it like it is. If you have been exercising, then grab the book and go.

Author

Jillian Michaels hit the public eye as the trainer for "The Biggest Loser" television series. Since then, she has worn several other hats as author, video game fitness guru and video workout specialist.

Purpose

"The 30 Day Shred" is geared to shave off those last few pounds. If you have that event--a high school reunion, party or business conference--for which you want to look your best, this program will strip your body down. Michaels makes no apologies for her blunt assessment of the work involved.

Audience

Michaels employs a one-two-three punch of cardio, intervals and strength training with fast-paced workouts. This program is not for the faint of heart. If you prefer a drill sergeant style with a touch of humanity, here it is.

Additional Help

If following a DVD alone does not keep you moving, Michaels has a companion book. "Making the Cut" offers further workouts, dieting advice and even a test to see if you are ready for the tough-as-nails program.
