Also, this frustration was further aggravated by her constant pep talk, which seemingly had no influence on me. Because while trying to imitate her form, I was losing in speed and so, had to pause every now and then. However, I really wish there was some level zero DVD too, where Jillian could teach us how to do the basic moves. In spite of skipping a few moves every day, I could see more definition in my muscles. The moves in the videos are basic but effective, because of the zero rest minutes.

But, she wanted to get leaner and had tried a lot of stuff to achieve that. And as her good friend I never quite saw a problem with that. However, to me, she was never on the ‘fat’ side. She is one of those friends of mine who constantly prayed during our college years, ‘God, if you can’t make me thin, please make my friend fat.’Īnyway, her transformation through Jillian Michaels – 30 Day Shred was really good, considering she was very happy about the way she now looked. My friend used it to get toned before her wedding, and then passed it on to me, so, may be I could get a taste of what she had to go through.
