Hi guys,
I am nearly done with just 2 days left to go. I haven't seen much change in my weight but my arms are more defined and my abs.
If any one wants to see my 30DS journey then follow my Facebook page Claire's 30 Day Shred. I have lots of pics on there and I update everyday to talk about what other exercise I'm doing.

Aww thanks for sharing, the results are great, I too didn't lose much weight but I did see some serious definition in my shoulders and arms. My legs improved a lot and I felt more toned all over. Generally I felt great too, a good daily workout make me feel fit and full of life!!

Will you be joining us for another 30days on the 17th of October? :flowerforyou:

melgibson

I'm in.

YAY!!! Can't wait to get started, have you got everything you need? :drinker:

melgibson

i've joined the shred groups twice and dropped out twice, ughs... but I'm motivated to get it over with by my anniversary of 11/21, so I'm in.

Let's get it done!

Well they say THIRD TIME LUCKY!!!!!

I am thrilled to have you on board!! Can't wait to get started!!!
We are planning on the 17th of October!! Is that ok with you? :flowerforyou:

melgibson

I have been thinking about get on with it so I am in!

I struggle to get my exercise in due to time and energy. I am chronically anemic so I need something that has lots of bang for my buck and I understand that this is it!

This is a fab workout if your pushed for time and need something constructive.
I love the shred as it is over fast but I still feel like I have done something, I have a hectic life and it's not always easy to fit in daily exercise but since I have done this 3 times before non stop I KNOW I can do it!!!

We shall be starting on the 17th of October, have you got everything you need?

melgibson

Just checked it out on Amazon and you can buy it with instant video for levels 1-3 for $4.99.

Sounds like a great price to me, BUY BUY BUY!!! I hope it will be with you in time.
You will also need some hand weights and a ,at if you have hard floors in your workout space, I use my rug!!!

Can't wait to get started!!!

melgibson

Have you done it before?

justaskforbrandy

I'm in!! I've been meaning to do this again!

melgibson

I think I'd like to try this. Hopefully I can keep at it if I know a bunch of other people are.

I'm sure you will do great!!

It's a really good workout, something for everyone and I'm sure we will all benefit from sticking to it for at least 30 days non stop.

I will be doing 3 runs a week too and some arm weights and ab work to give me that extra kick that I need.
I will do the shred daily with bigger weights than usual and smaller ones where no weights are asked for, so all the jumping jacks and punches etc. This is to make it a bit harder for me as I have done it three times before non stop 30 days!!

I can't wait to get started!!!!

melgibson

I ordered my DVD yesterday! Count me in!!!

YAY!!! Excellent, should be just in time for Monday!!!

Okay I was supposed to be in one of the other October shred challenges but thus far have been unsuccessful. I have late days with work and school so it's hard but I know it is not impossible. I am going to try to make the commitment...again...and try to do it as many days as possible a week in addition to working with my trainer and doing the c25k. Wish me luck!

melgibson

OK ...

THAT IS EVERYONE SO FAR.... PLEASE KEEP JOINING IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO DO THIS WITH US.

MY PLAN IS TO START ON THE 17TH OF OCTOBER, SO THAT GIVE US TIME TO GET PREPARED MENTALLY AND MAKE SURE WE ALL HAVE OUR DVD AND WEIGHTS ETC.

I WILL START A NEW TOPIC ON THE 17TH WHERE WE CAN ALL LOG IN AND BE ACCOUNTABLE, WE CAN ALSO LOG OUR WEIGHT MEASUREMENTS AND ANYTHING ELSE WE WOULD LIKE TO BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR...

Great to have you with us, its the same for me, I have days where it's just not possible so Iwill do it twice the day before when I can't manage it or twice the day after missing one. That is sometimes the best we can do.

I am sure you will be able to do great and even if we miss one here or there it is still better than to not try at all, so lets do our best!! :flowerforyou:

Okay... WAS going to train for a half marathon and do P90X...but what the heck...I'll train for the half and do this instead. I have it...loaned it to my best friend....Maybe I'll do ripped in 30 till I can get it back. I have 5 of Jillians videos...why won't this last 10 come off? URGGGHHHHH!!!!

Count me in...can't wait to get back on track!

I'm in! I got to level 1 day 6 in september before landing on my knee wrong during a jumping jack and spraining a ligament. But I'm healed and want to give it another go (except I will just jump straight up and down when I do the jumping jack so no pressure on my knee joint).

I love that its a 20 min workout and not much space is needed. I do go to the gym a few days a week however so will not do it on those days but will do it twice the next day

Bring it on!

Great group!

YAY!! Great to hear your with us!! The more people we have the better.

Those last 10lbs are a bugger, I have been working on them for well over a year and get them off then they creep back on, I am determined to keep at it. I felt fab on holiday and just need to keep going, a little more toning up and swap a little more fat for muscle and I will be there!!

LET DO THIS!!!

Great group!

Well done for giving it another go!!

I noticed I got a knee injury during the shred, it was actually from doing the liunges and squats wrong, I must make a mental note to not put knees beyond toes, this is what I did wrong...

For all those doing it for the first time or with old knee injuries it is really important to go stready on these as it will probably set off an old injury.
I now need to go gentle with the lunges and squats or it sets it off again :sad:

The shred is great for small areas, my lounge is tiny and I can still do it quite easily so I'm really glad to be doing it again too!!!
