Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred Challenge

austinsneeze · April 2012

I just bought the popular Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred, and I'm excited about it. I've heard good things, so hopefully it will kick my butt (and hopefully tone it

) Anyone want to do it with me?

There's an entire group of people starting today

I'm super new to this so I'm not sure where to tell you to look.... so not helpful!

I started yesterday!

I found it not as hard as her 6weeks to 6pack which I had to stop doing. I was SO sore!

Today my legs are certainly feeling the squats and my arms the push ups. Other than that though, it's a good overall feeling, like I got something done. I'm not afraid to to it again tonight anyway. I'm going to try to do the schedule people here talked about of 2 days shred, 1 cardio, 2 shred, 1 cardio 1 rest. Knowing me it will turn into 2 shred, 1 cardio, 2shred, 2 rest!! :laugh:

I am currently doing this...today is day 10..i have done it straight thru...taking a day off tomorrow then starting level 2...great progress so far and was sore too for about 3 days after the first workout, but so worth it!!! keep up the good work and you will see results...I strongly recommend measuring yourself before and after because I saw no weight loss but lost 5" overall SO far...not even half way thru yet!!

I haven't done any Jillian Michaels workouts yet, so I'm really excited!!! Are they 20 or 30 minutes long?

I am on day 6! Add me!

Im_NotPerfect · April 2012

I've been on about a 2 week hiatus (TOM and then a cold!). So, I'm going to be starting over (sort of) on Sunday I think. I'll probably do 4 days of level 1 and then jump into level 2. Hopefully I don't kill myself with that! LOL

I am doing the 30 Day Shred as well and wanted to know how to track it under the exercise journal as it is not in the database. Any advice?

My Day 1 was today haha.

I just started Level 3!! It's such a good workout. Best of luck to you!

30 day shred is awesome! Mostly because you are doing different things almost every 30 seconds so you never get a chance to get bored. Also, from posts on here I have gathered that Jillian herself did not intend for it to be done every day for 30 days, but that you are supposed to rest a day or do something different because the program is hard on the knees. A lot of people on here have commented that they stopped because it gave them knee pain. Don't stop the program, just take a day off and rest those knees.
