Seems like a good number. I'm going to start a new thread titled "30 day shred 1/22 closed group" That will be for us!

From what I understand, you are supossed to do the DVD every day. I know some people (like me!) may not be able to do this. Let's keep checking in anyway. The important thing is to not quit! We can do it!

Oh! Ya, Om not sure but I've heard it's not good to really work out in those. Jillian doesn't really do a thorough stretch so I usually stretch out a bit more after. My shins have never hurt after doing the Shred but they do when I run. The stretch I do for my shins is get in a plank position and shift your body way up and way back with your toes. This stretches the calves and shins.

What stretches do you recommend? I know Jillian doesn't really do too many stretches that will help with these shin splints. I'm wondering if it might be my shoes too because I have those curves for women that are supposed to help tone and I think they might be a little much for a beginner like me.

make sure you are stretching your shins really good! And I have been taking Sunday's off. I think you are supposed to do it every day but I need a day to rest!!

I am just now starting Level 2! I have lost 7lbs this first week and a half.

On a side note: I have been getting some really bad shin splints and I am not really sure what to do about it. So if anyone has any advice on how to prevent/cure them that would be great. I don't want to stop working out and I really don't want to take time off to rest, unless I absolutely have to. I just don't want to take a break because you have to do the workout every day for 30 days, unless I'm mistaken?

I just started doing some of Jillian Michaels videos that were on Comcast On Demand. I really enjoy her and decided I'm going to buy her dvd. Its great to know so many people on here are doing JM workout videos too!
