Jillian Michaels Shred it with weights

cnjbarry

I just got the Shred it with weights DVD. Im wondering if it is effective. Is it enough of a total body workout?
Anyone out there who has done it? Finished 30 days? Im willing to put in the work, Im just wondering if I whould add in some extra workouts on the side

It is effective-great for toning and losing inches-I have completed 11 days of it and feel great! I hear the hheavier u r the more weight u lose and the lighter u r the less weight u drop-

It's a great DVD! And it's short-25 min. I would say it is a total body work out-a lot of lower body, upper body, cardio and because of the weight you use your core all of the time. I love it! I have done about 10 days so far of it. I also do about 30 min. of extra cardio. I don't do it every day-one day shred it with weights, one day 30 day shred. Also just started Banish Fat , Boost Metabolism-45 min. of sweat dripping all over. I love Jillian! I think you will like it.

Yes it is a total body workout! I'm still hurting from incorporating it into my routine this past Monday. My thighs have been so sore since then. It's a great core workout! I will be adding this in to my regimen about 2-3 times a week with my other cardio/strength training/running.

Im also wondering about this?

Log as circuit training-if u aren't using hrm then mfp will automatically figure calories burned for u

deninevi

I log it as circut training, but don't know if it's right-no HRM.

I just did it like two days ago......As a p90xer I must say holy cow my arms hurts so much.......Crazy workout especially for only 25 minutes.......Kettlebells are crazy.....I was afraid it might slip out of my hand and break something.......also the dog kept walking in front of me while I was swing that thing..

Have any of you finished this workout? What are your results?

I'm just on the last few days of my second round of 30 Say Shred. I'm trying to decide what to do next.

I have been reading about calories burned while doing kettlebell workouts, they all say basically the same, it burns 10-11 calories per minute. Hope this helps. The Jillian Michaels Shred it with Weights is a Wal Mart for 9.67 you can get a 15 lb kettle bell for 25.00 there as well.

Also do not use a small weight, you need to challenge yourself with more weight.

Oh and I forgot, you can get an inexpensive heart rate monitor watch on ebay.
