“No More Trouble Zones” by Jillian Michaels is a 50 minute strength training workout. It targets all of the trouble zones- abs, inner/outer thighs, triceps, biceps, lower abdominal area and many more! I’ve been doing this workout for about a month now about 4 times a week. I absolutely love it. It has transformed my body and I have a new found liking of strengthening and toning workouts over cardio and high-impact workouts. It’s extremely easy to follow and all that is required is a yoga mat and 3-5 pound weights (optional). This video allows your body to slowly build muscle and shred away the extra pounds. And of course we all know that muscle helps burn fat and makes you look leaner.

This video used to be free on YouTube, but now it requires a subscription. You can also buy it on Amazon as a DVD or as a video on Amazon Video for an extremely cheap price (~$6-$10). Believe me- it is worth it- especially with bikini season on the rise! Don’t want to spend 50 minutes doing this workout or don’t want to buy it? Take a look at these sets that you can do at home that Jillian does throughout the video:
