Doing it slowly, circuit by circuit, is very motivating too. To see yourself get stronger and try just one more circuit today than you did maybe last week or so. Your gonna feel great about yourself!
Thank you, I am really happy to hear someone else decided to take on the harder ones too. I used to do karate when I was a teenager and the workouts were very similar. However, the break from exercise has made it impossible to finish the NMTZ workout all in one go. I will keep switching the dvds around and hopefully in a few weeks I can have enough endurance for that workout, because it seems like such an awesome and beneficial workout. I really like Jillian's no nonsense personality in these dvds. I bought a dvd about "yoga for weight loss" or something and it was really new agey and not intense at all. It was good for relaxing- just not weight loss or even toning. I really like that Jillian says, "If I am going to make you big promises you have to work hard", because I know this is the truth. I feel like its only been a few days and I feel so much better, my walk to school was WAY easier (it is about a mile), and maybe it is just in my head, but I see my tummy looks just a tad bit smaller already. hehe could just be the TOM switching up my water weight though.
