So, I had bought the 30 day shred for my wife. I could'nt find my beginner Tae Bo dvd so... I did the first level ...Very basic.I always thought I was in decent shape.

Her and her friends kicked my a#$. Oh, rest assured , I'll be back.... Now I know why she has the reputation that she does. I was sweating buckets after 20 minutes.

I would highly recommend this program if you cant get to the gym but want to sweat....

    I have to agree, but I know she will work my butt. I don't sweat easy, but I do everytime I do the 30-day shed.

    My 12 year old son did level 1 with me one day. As we are getting started, he says, "This is really easy." I told him it was the warm up. By the third circuit, he was begging to quit and saying he couldn't go on. :tongue: Though now he does it with me most days, so I'm pretty proud of both of us!

    I'd like to see my husband do the Shred too. :) I think he thinks it's too "girly" though. Uh-uh, buddy (as Jillian says in one of those levels). lol

    LOL! I just finished 7 days straight of 30-Day Shred level 1, and trust me, I was cursing that woman 1 week ago too! I was hobbling everywhere I went and needed something to hold onto while sitting down / standing up. It was rough! But it was a challenge so I pushed through it all. Right around day 5 the pain started to ease up. And, let me tell you, I feel so much stronger now!

    It's worth it!

    That woman has changed my whole perception of exercise. I love her and I can't possibly thank her enough for what she's done for so many people.

    LOL! :laugh: She can definitely put you through the exercise ringer! I have a couple of her circuit workouts as well - 55 minutes each with warm up and cool down and I'm sweating buckets when I'm done!

    I started out with her 30-day shred DVD last year and I tell you, I would be more sore after 20 minutes of her than 40 minutes of anybody else. She has some new ones out that look even tougher. I just started doing her Last Chance Workout DVD. WOW.

    :heart: It's so easy to hate her and love her at the same time! My first Jillian video was No More Trouble Zones....55 minutes people of yelling at her for being "EVIL"....Did that for 3 or so months before buying the 30 day Shred...(ya know Jillian for 25 minutes Had to be easier right?) HA...25 minutes of Terror. She works though! Both are different , yet they both kick your butt! :heart:

    I see you had the same revelation I did :laugh: I'm glad to know that I wasn't the only one that suffer through part of that workout. And she didn't make it any better when she had them show off how flexible they were...kick higher if you can BLAH!! :bigsmile:
