Workout Wednesday, Get Your Sweat On!

I was pretty excited to try out Jillian Michaels Yoga Meltdown

I thought that the 30 day shred was worth the $10, so why not try Jillian’s yoga DVD, eh?

What I liked:

  • its a quick 30 minute workout – perfect to schedule into your day
  • The positions focus on building strength  - I could feel my weakling muscles burning
  • Its easy to follow without having to look up at the screen every 2 seconds.

What I didn’t like:

  • To me, yoga is about holding those poses – Jillian constantly keeps the movements flowing, then holds for 15 seconds. My knees pops like crazy, so its better for me to hold a chair pose and not squat it up and down
  • I wanted a little more stretching at the end, it wasn’t bad, just not long enough for my liking

Overall, I’m really glad I got this DVD. I’ve been wanting to find a good yoga workout DVD, I miss going to classes, but this definitely helps out.

Have any of you tried this workout DVD yet?

Now it’s your turn, share your workout or workouts! :)

  1. i had a great run last night. only 20 seconds off my 5K PR!

    i’ve got a 1 hour rodney yee video and i recently bought the 20 minute one. i like the 1 hour but i’d like to have a shorter one to do during the week. hopefully the 20 minute video will be just as good.

  3. I tried it for 10 minutes and gave up. I’m sure it’s great, but I was just tired at the time. Friday morning may be my next attempt for the Yoga meltdown.

  4. when I first started yoga this DVD probably would have been great because I wasn’t ready to transition from running to something slower paced. Now I really lvoe the feeling a calm centered yoga class creates
