  • Fantastic

    This is the next best thing to having Jillian Michaels in your home. Great range of exercises combining strength and cardio that mixes it up so you get a great work out without getting bored. And for some reason I find Jillian’s voice both motivating and soothing. Works for me and I’m seeing great results.

  • Great app

    I just completed week 3 and right from the beginning I noticed my body shape was slowing changing. My weight has remained about the same but my arms and legs are getting some definition and my clothes feel a little bit loser. I was going to the gym and found myself doing the same cardio and same basic exercises but not pushing myself. I’m doing the Slim 60. I’m getting used to some of the exercises but some days I keep pausing every 40 seconds out of breath. Because of this I take 30-45 mins to complete a workout.
    I don’t like the meal plan. They require A lot of ingredients that I don’t use in my kitchen. I also eat out a lot so maybe having some popular restaurants menu included would be helpful. Last thing I would like to see a variety of music to keep me motivated. Overall I’m happy I found this app. I plan to try it for several months and maybe get the annual subscription.

  • Great confidence booster!

    I’ve been using the app for two solid weeks now and I must say it’s very good. I can schedule the time I choose to workout and the variety of workouts are amazing. Anything you need from legs to back to booty. Even if you’re getting married! Its all there! I don’t follow her food plan much but it has given me loads of ideas so I never get bored. Also you can sync the app with other health apps to give you full control of calories consumed and burned etc.

    I have an Apple Watch too so it’s fantastic for monitoring my workouts. I usually get bored of these type of things and relapse after a while BUT I’m in this for the long haul and Jillian really makes me feel motivated and proud of myself after each workout.

    If you’re looking to lose or gain weight or just become healthier in general, this is an app I would recommend. Good luck!

  • You can’t find a better fitness app

    The beauty of this app is that you can use it absolutely anywhere! The POWER of this app is you have Jillian Michaels with you each and every step of the way! I couldn’t recommend this app more. Even as a money conscious university student it is TOTALLY worth it! Thank you so much JM ❤️❤️
  • I use this app everyday

    A year and a half into this app, I’m advanced fitness and still like using it, I would like to see more of the workouts to be 45min - I’m just not getting enough from the shorter workouts even when adjusting the level to hard. Would also like to see the sets to come in 3’s and a bit longer than 25 seconds. I have found Jillian’s workout DVD’s to be harder than the app... would love more of that in the app. Tbh Starting to get bored

    Jillian Michaels has always been my go to for fitness DVD’s - this app is even more amazing!! Loving the updates as it keeps getting better. Feeling fit and strong, mixing up routines I never get board! The food is incredible trying things I’ve never had before, now my favorite things to eat!!

  • Found my nich!

    Love this app - workouts include music, variety, alternative exercises - their upbeat, and keeps you on track. Schedule your next work out with Jillian and get a notification when its time. Also includes meal plans, grocery lists, recipies - all layed out for you. Includes physical tests before and after to see how you’ve improved. Keeps track of calories and is sooooo all inclusive. Can even add your own music to the workouts. If you have weights, foam roller, she works them in there, or if you don’t she still has exercises to meet your goals. Very impressed. Very grateful. I do it right after work - its $10 a month (if you do $30 every 3 months plan) which is like a Gym membership - but includes so much more. A personal trainer right in your pocket, with music, positivity, and food advice right in your pocket! Totally worth it. **But make sure you have a newer type phone, old generations don’t work. Good Luck!! 💪🏽

  • Pretty good needs work

    I'm currently trying to get back on the healthy wagon. I usually don't like to pay for apps cus I know I don't end up using them the whole year. But this time I decided to try out the app because I've heard many great things about Jillian. Usually I don't use half the recipes people give for being healthy cus it's not very appetizing and I know my husband won't eat them. But there are a few recipes that I've tried and liked. The one thing about the recipes is that when you click to just look at them it doesn't show which ones are breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Also I tried to buy all the ingredients for one week and it ended up being so expensive. On the other hand I like the exercises, but it needs work. Because it only gives 3 seconds to get ready for the next position and I don't even know what I'm expecting. So sometimes she would be halfway done with the exercise by the time I finally get it correctly. It would be helpful to have a little more time between each one and to actually have it show what is coming up.

  • App layout needs major work.

    Was hopeful at first, this program seemed very inviting. And seemed like it had a lot of variety and options. However compared to other programs this one really lacks. I don’t like the workouts being time based versus counted reps. My brain just focuses on how much time is left per interval and I don’t do my best. (This is really a personal preference thing). The menu seems okay. However it’s set up is terrible and WAY too many menu items repeat themselves too soon. I want way more variety. And I’d like to be able to easily glance at a week and see what I’m going to eat each day so I can plan and look forward to. It’s very very hard to go back days or swipe forward days to check out possible meals you may or may not want to try. I hate that the most. Overall, Sweat by Kayla Itsines far exceeds this program, and I went into this with an open mind and wanting to like it. It’s just not for me at all. Maybe if the meal plan was laid out better I’d still give it a try. Very poor app layout that needs work to be more simple and user friendly. Wouldn’t recommend.

  • Great workouts, but app needs improvement

    These workouts are fantastic and I am seeing results! However, the app has runtime errors a lot. The serve was down recently and I wasn’t able to use the app or login. Once it was fixed and up and running, I was able to use the app, but my previous days workouts hadn’t saved, my music playlist had been deleted and the process to generate the customized workouts took up to 10 minutes- it actually timed out twice and I had to restart. Prior to all this, the only issues i had with the app were that the music element would use the same songs over and over again, despite that I had added about 50 songs the the playlist. The other issue i had was the workouts are repetitive. Each ‘customized’ program uses nearly the same workouts- so it’s strange to see so many different programs when you’re kinda doing the same thing in each. So in sum, the app works to get you results, but it needs some major fine-tuning.

  • LOVE!

    I was so excited to discover this app. I used to use her Ripped in 30 workout religiously and was thrilled with those results. After hitting 50, my body was not having those workouts. I have been searching for quite a while to find something that my body would tolerate (without massive doses of Advil). Happy to say that the metrics behind this app seem to do their job perfectly. One week in and no complaints about the workouts at all. I get an age-appropriate (and fitness level appropriate) butt-kicking every day. The areas for improvement that I would suggest are:
    1. I have had some loading issues and found that if I load the next workout as soon as I finish the workout for the day, it goes much smoother
    2. As others have mentioned, some tips, or exercise demos would be great. I know most of the exercises I have seen so far from previous Jillian workouts but not all. I want to be sure I am doing them correctly in order to get the most out of each rep.
    Overall I am very pleased though and look forward to the results I know are on their way. Thanks Jillian!
