Fun and simple work out.
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
This work out is so much fun to do, you start with level 1 and then when you master 1 you go on to 2. Challenging all over toning and fun, even my 16 year ancient daughter likes them. Thanks for a fantastic DVD.
this dvd is worth losing if you are an intermediate trainer.
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
This work out dvd along with the “The Largest Loser: Cardio Max” are not for intermediate and experienced dvd work out users. I believe Power Sculpt and Cardio Max are for people that have not worked out in years or at all.
I upped the weights and bent down or over more but I still didn’t feel my muscles become fatigued and Power Sculpt failed the sweat test for me.
I finished up selling this dvd and Cardio Max.
like it

i like this dvd, i can always tell a difference in my body pretty quickly when using it. the only complaint that i have is the level 2 workout, kim makes me nuts. while the workout itself is fantastic, she is TERRIBLE. she gets off count several times and gets confused at one point in the workout. each time i do the dvd and i get to her part i always reckon lionsgate should give me a partial refund for just how terrible she stinks in her segment. with all that being said the workout itself is fantastic but now i know why she is off the show.
Fantastic muscle sculpting workout!

When I first ordered this I thought it might be too simple for me…I’ve already lost 80+lbs on my own from changing my diet and daily workouts. I consider myself to be in pretty excellent shape but still wanted a workout to challenge me. Let me start off by saying I LOVE Jillian Michaels. She can push anyone, regardless of your fitness level, and if you stick with it you WILL see results. I also own her 30 day shred DVD. It’s a fantastic muscle building program!
I loved the largest loser power sculpting workout due to the change of trainers between levels. They keep it upbeat so it doesn’t get dull. If the workout becomes to simple just up the amount of weights your lifting. There is no reason you can keep up with this DVD forever-just adding more weight when you need to. I switch btwn 10 lb weights 5 for the weaker muscles groups or extended reps. Keep doing this and you will transform your body! Excellent Luck!
LOVE IT!!!

I have been walking and doing different workout videos for the past 6 weeks. I got this video plus some other Largest loser videos and feel that these really give you a excellent workout. I have the sweat dripping off of me.
A small disappointed
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
Well, this is a excellent workout for beginners. But if you’ve tried other body sculpt DVD’s, you could see how much more this needed to push you. We just bought Jillian Michael’s 30 Day Shred and I felt like I got a better workout from her 20 minute session than this 50 minute one. And even though I’m an amateur, I could tell that I needed and wanted to push myself a bit more than this DVD offered. If you do get this DVD, I would suggest getting some heavier weights to push yourself.
Another thing I didn’t like about this DVD was the repetitive nature of going from one section to the next. You’re supposed to “add” levels as you go, but it sure felt like the 2nd level exercises were what I just finished in the first (including curtsy lunges, triceps). I would have liked newer and more challenging reps. Working out my triceps for 10 minutes may sound cool, but it’s a small muscle and thus burns less calories.
One other factor is that as cool as it is to watch your favorite contestants from the Largest Loser, they tend to have very poor form, which means you don’t always know how to do the exercise right.
If you want to be pushed and want the trainers from Largest Loser, I’d suggest checking out Jillian Michaels stuff. Challenging and inspiring.
Ok workout….just not for me
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
This workout was just “ok”. I like to feel a sense of accomplishment after I get done working out but I felt like I got the workout equivalent of jogging on a treadmill for 15 minutes (and I did all three levels.) I reckon I was just expecting a small more since I like both Jillian and Bob as trainers. But, this workout might be better suited for someone who is a beginner. I’ve been working out for about 4 months with Jillian’s 30 day shred, No More Distress Zones, and BFBM along with Bob’s yoga dvd and I don’t consider myself “advanced” but I’m not really a beginner either.
There were a couple of excellent exercises when I felt the burn, mainly in Bob’s workout. I felt like a lot of the moves were rushed and proper form wasn’t demonstrated so you might not get the full extent of your workout if the exercises are not being performed correctly. This workout focuses mainly on the upper body and lower body and there are a couple of “core” exercises thrown in but I didn’t really feel the burn too much in my abs like I do normally when I workout. I say rent this at your local library like me, or on Netflix (if you have it) but don’t buy it. I suggest trying one of Jillian’s videos or the Largest Loser Yoga!
very disappointed!!!
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
I am extremely disappointed in this dvd! The exercises are effective, but, the music is AWFUL and Bob, Jillian and Kim do not keep time to the music. I will use this dvd simply because I paid for it.
I’m not Jillian’s largest fan, but I like this
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
The combo moves make a workout that both strengthens and gets your heart rate up for a cardio boost. I am an early intermediate exerciser & was able to complete level 1 immediately, with some definate sweating. After 3 weeks I added on level 2 & was able to complete most of that. I imagine with another week or 2 I’ll have that level down.
Jillian is just dreadful on this DVD
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
I LOVE Jillian Michael’s other DVDs, but she is just dreadful on this one and half of the workout time is with her. She makes a lot of mistakes in her instructions. I don’t know why they didn’t stop recording and start over! After doing the workout a few times, it’s just too annoying to do the segment with her.
The other segments are excellent and I like that the DVDs are set up that you can choose which parts of the DVD you want to do. But after leaving out the Jillian part, it’s only a 20 minute workout.
A+

This DVD is fantastic!! I really delight in the challenge of the workout. I’m not in shape at all but after a few times of trying, I got better and better. I really recommend this product. Jillian is super motivating!!
Fantastic!

For about a week now, I’ve been alternating the Cardio Max Workout with the Power Sculpt Workout. Honestly…. I’m 27 years ancient and since I was 17, after high school sports were over, I’ve been looking for a workout that I can really LOVE… and I never found it. I tried everything. I really really did. I finally finally FINALLY found one I like!! Maybe it’s because I just started going back to school and have found a new sense of competitiveness inside me- not for others, but for myself, or maybe Largest Loser is just awesome. Regardless, I have found that I have so much motivation to do this DVD… and clearly competing with myself to see if I can make it through the whole workout today, or make it to the next level tomorrow. Sheesh! Who needs a workout partner!
I know people have complained that the Largest Losers in the background are distracting because they are doing things incorrect, but I really like it, because I can right myself by looking at them, knowing they are doing it incorrect, then looking at myself and thinking- crap I’m doing it just like they are- I’m doing it incorrect! So then I right myself.
The first day I wasn’t able to get through the whole workout, in fact I only made it 10 minutes out of 20. I was sore for… well…. I’m still sore from it!! I could barely walk the next day- I LOVE that feeling- just knowing it’s working! After 4 times of doing it, I can get through the workout, and am so nervous to go on, but I know there is a reason for why this level is harder than the higher levels, and why it needs to be done for at least 2 weeks. You’ve really got to jumpstart your metabolism and shock those muscles into action! Then you really need to maintain it for a few weeks before moving on, otherwise your results may not be what you were expecting.
I’m thinking about purchasing Boot Camp for after my 6 weeks are over on these two DVD’s, and possibly alternating it with the Yoga one….. any thoughts on that combo??
As for eating- I am TRYING to eat healthy, but I’m more of a “natural” dieter, and natural doesn’t mean less calories, so I’m working on it. I’d rather not eat fake foods. I’m a honey over splenda kinda girl.
Anyways, I’ve taken my measurements (but not my weight- bc I dont care for that frustrating number as inches count way more than pounds and it’s just discouraging when you dont see the number you want so quick) and took my before pictures, and I can’t wait to *hopefully* see results in a few months!!!
Motivation!

I worked out to the dvd about 3-4 days a week and in the time that frame that said with a healthy diet I have toned and lost inches in 6 weeks. I was so satified with the result that I ordered the cardio max.
Impressive Results
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I have been following the recommended program for nearly 4 weeks now out of six. I won’t even start the toughest routine until the 5th week, but already I have seen incredible results. Especially in my abs, shoulders, biceps and triceps. I had already incorporated weight lifting into my routine, so I was surprised to see such dramatic results. I would recommend this to anyone.
A must have in your workout collection
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This is a must have. If you are looking for a workout to make you feel like you have worked out, then please check this out. Jillian takes you on the frist level which is slow until you get the hang of things. Then you will go on to the 2nd level with kim who works you alittle quicker which really is fantastic. Then bob takes you on a more harder level (3). Its not hard to do and overall its just a excellent workout for anyone.. I like it and glad its in my collection.
