Jillian Michael Killer Butt and Thighs Review

Image: CollageVideo.com

This workout is worth every penny. It is not only working your buns and thighs but your core and arms too.

I give this workout a 10

She also adds some Yoga type moves and uses weights for the advanced so you never get bored. Plus she brings in some "old school" moves and some 30 Day Shred moves.

Creating Memory Boxes

So many times I get people that love doing planks and pushups but have pain in the wrists. I did a video on this and if you have some discomfort you may want to check it out it is what I teach in class, and use myself.

Last night I finished the "Shrink the Fat Zones" Pilates workout by Denise Austin I give it a 9.

1. Love she uses a towel for resistance
2. Some flow moves are fun and challenging
3. She always talks about correct form
4. The core was very good, lots of variety (I love core)
5. You will feel the burn in the legs, but not so much in the glutes (so I took a point off for that)

Workout - Shrink your fat zones Pilates/ Denise Austin
Time of workout - 15 min (core only) + 40 = 55 min
Cals burned = 34 + 90 = 124
