It has not been almost 2 weeks since I ran my very first marathon. I knew that I wouldn’t feel like running for awhile after the race so I wanted to prepare to still workout as I started eating less since I wasn’t running so much with training. Did that sentence ake any sense at all? I didn’t think so. Basically I ate a lot because I was running a lot. Now I want to eat less and still workout, just not 18 mile runs, more like 30-60 minutes per day.
Enter Jillian Michaels Body Revolution.
Yes, this is the one from the infomercial on tv. I like all of JM’s other dvd’s so I thought this would be a natural fit.
After I could walk normally again after the marathon I started this program.
I am on week 2 and while I have not seen any significant changes to my body I feel stronger with all of the exercises she has us doing.
Every 2 weeks you get 2 new dvd’s to follow, keeping the workouts interesting. You have 4 strength/cardio days per week and 2 days of straight cardio and 1 rest day each week. I made Monday’s my rest day because Monday’s are always huge whores in my house, and I hate working out on whoreday.
Next week starts week 3 and I am really looking forward to seeing what this 12 week program brings me! I’ll keep you updated of any significant changes I see from use of the dvd’s.
Have you ever bought something from an infomercial? This is my first info purchase and I am pretty happy with it so far!

Neat! I heard her talking about this on her podcast and it sounded like a great program!
Yup! We’ve bought Beachbody’s Slim in 6 and of course Tony Hortons P90X. I looked at that one but couldn’t pull the trigger for some reason.
