Great workouts and workout plan if you follow it. Hard to take book to gym--so you need to make photocopies and review what you are doing before you go. It takes alot of dedication. I made it through week one. The diet part isn't helpful. There are recipes but calories and serving size wasn't easy to figure or adjust. Maybe just use diet as suggestion and eat rec number of calories per day for your basal metabolic rate. I love Jillian, but this isn't the best book.

Good book for someone who is looking for guidance on eating and exercise. It is a good reference to keep in your fitness library.
