It's 3 minutes of strength training, 2 minutes of cardio, and 1 minute of abs. Then repeat for a total of 3 sets. There is no stopping, even for a water break (although I can sneak in a sip) and it is super intense.

Actually, it sounds great!

I only do this 2x a week along with Callanetics. Are you supposed to do it everday or maybe increasing to 3x a week will show me results. I might be ready to move to level 2 soon. I love this workout because its intense and short!!

Too funny. A close second (can't remember if it's from level 1 or 2) is when Jillian is demonstrating how to do a proper crunch without straining your neck and she says something to the effect of "... remember, use your core strength only...your neck is not invited to this party"

I love it. Jillian rules.

Yes, I am! I'm about 5 sessions into level 2. I did level 1 for about a month (not everyday, probably 3-4 times a week.

I love it! I see a small difference (I'm pretty overweight, so any definition besides lumps is great). I feel an enormous difference in my stamina and strength.

Love it!

OMG, I totally know what you mean! I am literally dripping with sweat when I'm doing it, and I"m not a huge sweater. Those plank jacks and jumps really kill me.

Did you start on level 1? Or just jump into level 2? I'm starting to see changes which is exciting, so hopefully you are too!
