    I am in. I need the motivation and accountability. Plus my tummy feel so flappy lately. Sorry TMI :blushing:
  • Does anyone have a good guestimate of how many calories you can burn while doing your 30 min shred? I know if will vary person to person, depending on age, weight, height, etc. And I know it will depend also on which level you are on and how much effort you put in. But do you have a general idea? Like 250-300 maybe?
  • I'm in!! I actually started yesterday so I just finished Day 2...it really is a hard workout for someone like me that is pretty much never active. So I went online for some motivation to keep going and this site popped up. Just wanted to say good luck to everyone!

    I put it in as 20 minutes of Circuit Training General. For me it was 217 calories.
  • I'm in. I just bought it this week and was going to start it tomorrow since it's April 1rst and so happy I saw this!
  • Leave it to me to start TOM the day before I start a challenge...I'm still down though, just gonna be rough tomorrow!
  • I'm in! I actually just purchased a copy of her new Ripped in 30 DVD so I'll be doing that instead of the shred, but I'm sure she doesn't mess around in this series either!! :) Looking forward to it!!

  • I started the Shred this morning and it's tough doing it when I have a 65 lb. dog thinking I'm down on the floor solely to play with him. Pushing him out of the way provided that extra exercise! ha!

    I've very overweight and still had to modify on the jumping jacks and push-ups...have a hard time doing them but my goal is to be able to by the end of the month! Already feeling the exercises in my arms and legs!

    April 1:
    chest: 53"
    waist: 49"
    hips: 58"
    thigh: 31"

    My dog is about that same size and he thinks the same thing. I exercise at night, so I will be expecting him to be in my way then. Good way to think of it as extra exercise.

    Thanks. I will just put that in as the Circuit Training then.

    Alright I did day 1!! Plus my 21 day makeover thing last night!!! Not gonna lie, I wanted to quit after the first circuit but I didn't! Tomorrow is going to be hard tho...I will work on getting my measurements this weekend (I work ALLLLL day today, literally)
  • This is actually day 3 for me because I started before I knew about this challenge. I am very, very sore to the point where it hurts to sit down AND stand up. I forced myself to run some errands this morning but didn't get everything done because I was embarrassed of the way I looked getting in and out of the car LOL

    A question for you fitness buffs: is this normal or should I rest a few days? I hate to because I'm so motivated right now and I feel like if I stop, I might not start back. I did the shred this afternoon and to be honest I feel so much better but I'm scared of how I will feel in the morning. Here's my measurements from today:

    Height: 5'8
    Weight: 154.4 lbs
    Bust: 37
    Waist: 31.75
    Hips: 38
    Thighs: 22.5
    Arms: 10.25
