I'm guessing around 180 or so. I really didn't sweat very much on level 1. Any ideas? Thanks!

    you know my husband and I were JUST talking about that this morning. I'd like to find out myself. tried to use my heart rate monitor to see this morning, but it didn't workout like I had planned...LOL. I guess it only counts the calories from walking movements or something. I personally break a good sweat doing it. Normally I'm one that doesn't sweat much at all, even while walking outside and what not. I use a sauna suit when I get on the elliptical....makes me feel good when I take it off and all that sweat pours out. LOL

    Let me know what you find out about the calories burned doing the Shred.

    Did you get the one that was on woot a few weeks ago? That is the one I ordered. I know nothing about HRMs and reading directions is TORTURE for me. Seriously, my boss thinks I have Adult ADD or something. I can DO just about anything but to read directions and then do it, you'd think I were a three year old or something, lol. I'm going to have one of my older kids set it for me tonight, they can read/follow directions.

    My husband got it for me...its not a very expensive one...maybe a $40 job. it just doesn't do what I wanted it to do...and reading the instructions are like trying to learn Chinese or something...I'm not very savvy when it comes to things like this...maybe one day I'll figure it out.

    When I googled this it says Jillian Michaels 30 day shred burns
    503 calories per hour
    Assuming weight of 154 lbs or 70 kg
    I'm almost double that weight so am I burning twice the amount of calories that it say? (Gosh I hope so!)
    I'm on day five and I am still sweatting my patootie off.
    I'm new to this site today and was trying to figure it out and your post came up in my bing search

    30 day shred is one of Jillian Michaels workout videos. It has 3 workout levels. It is designed to be a 20 minute circuit training workout. When you feel comfortable with level one, the next day you try level two. Just started it today and it's amazing. I am so excited to build up my resistance and move on to level 2.

    i just got it too and im excited to start but we will see how excited i am after a couple days of it but i looked it up and it say for a individual that ways 154lbs they will burn 503 calories per hour but the program is only 20 mins long so 503/hr is roughly 9/min that means for 20 mins its about 180 calories burned give or take depending on how much you weigh or how hard you're working

    I just did level one this morning.. so we are all saying about 180-200 calories for level one? I'm a bigger gal. 239. But I want to put something down on my exercise. So I would be safe with 180 for 20 mins?

    I love this 30 day shred! I toned up last year just doing it for the 30 days. Like someone said earlier, weight loss was not noticable but I looked great and dropped almost 4 dress sizes just by eating a 1440 calorie diet and doing this workout everyday. However, I have since let life take over and stopped doing everything. I gained my weight back (I wasn't eating healthy either.) Thanks for the posts because I'm ready to start doing what I know works again! As for the diet pills. I understand your pain. At one point in my life I became dependant on them thinking that if I stopped that I would gain the weight back. Believe it or not they have addicting side effects. When I did not know where else to turn I joined a local 12 step group and it has significantly changed my life around. When you've had enough and you cant get off of the pills on your own, there is hope. Your not alone. Good luck to you and everyone on your "active participation in a life style change!"

    If you want to find out how many calories you burn, compare it to the standard.. set up as a preportion
    154 lbs your weight
    ______ = _________
    503 calor ies x (how many calories)

    cross multiply to get 154x= 503 *your weight
    divide your weight answer by 154
    that will be how many calories your burn in one hour
    divide by 3 to find out how many calories you will burn in one 20 minute session

    I'm 89kg, and I burn 190 - 205 calories on level 1, using only 1kg weights, and doing 'girly' pushups.

    Hope that helps!

    So am I right in my interpretation of this:

    Current Weight 248

    503 * 248 = 124744
    124744/154 = 810.03
    810.03/3 - 270

    So I would burn 270 calories doing one 20 minute set program? Also, is this the 1st level or one of the advanced levels?
