My First Day Of The 30 Day Shred.

So i officially completed my first day of the 30 day shred. I am curious to know if anyone say a difference after doing these workouts. It would be super duper awesome if someone would post some before and after pictures :) I also would love if people would keep me motivated throughout the full thirty days. I tend to get bored when doing these things and i don't really have anyone to motivate me. Thanks in advance :)

  • I've been through the 30 day shred before after my son was born in April of 2012 but ended up stopping for various reasons but came back to it recently. I can tell you I've seen some differences. I don't have the completely "flat tummy" like the pics but I am loosing the belly fat and toning up. I currently am on the 8th day of Level 2 and am determined to finish it and continuing. I also got bored with the same routine after awhile but what helped was throwing in some extra exercises with strength, cardio, or Aerobics to keep things broken up. I know I have some pics I can post up soon once I find them. Good job and keep it up!

    Thank you. I know there was a lot online of people saying they weren't losing anything. It nice to know that it can actually work :) I'm looking forward to seeing you results.
  • These have been my 2 weeks doing the 30 day shred.................I am still on Workout One LOL In order that I don't become bored, I take 2 days off and do the treadmill instead.........It has been great but I guess with the combination of diet and exercise I have been losing a bit more than when I was just using the treadmill. I got everyone at home on bored to do it even my husband and five kids!! I highly recommend it especially if your too busy to spend an hour at a gym. I don't mind doing 20 minutes of intense exercise especially if I don't have to spend an hour losing the same amount of calories :)

    If you haven't taken pictures and measurements -- do so. Because the scale is not always the best reflection of how you will/have changed.

    For me, one of the best changes from 30DS was the conditioning -- regardless of weight, after the 30DS I felt more able, stronger. And I was more able to take on other physical challenges. The idea of running prior to 30DS was not something I wanted to do -- to haul my sluggish, heavy butt for miles? After 30DS I did the C25K program and ran a 5K. I also began taking the HIIT classes at my gym.
  • Started today as well!! I've seen such great results on this website so I've deceided to join and follow the program for 30 days.
    Good luck everyone!

    I'm on day 17. & i honestly don't see a big difference, but today I did realize my waist looks smaller & I am a lot stronger. I have lost 9lbs so far, not complaining here :smile:
    I will say take measurements & before photos, you will realize your weight loss more if you do this!

    I wil be doing Level 1, Day 7 today - I gained a pound so far but muscle weighs more than fat, so don't get discouraged if you don't see the scale moving right away! I've seen a lot of fabulous results, hoping for the same! Good luck!! :smile:

    How many days per level? I found it on youtube but it doesn't give any information
  • 10 days for each level which equals to 30 days.

    I just did my first day on this today as well. I was working up a sweat and I am a person who usually does 45 mins of cardio and some strength training regularly. I am hoping for some results, definitely take measurements before and after.

    It really does work!! I did it every day with clean eating... I lost 11 inches overall and almost got a flat stomach. I didn't lose any weight though, but I looked like I did! It was obviously because of muscle gain and the results were so obvious I didn't complain.

    I'm having to start it all over again because I didn't keep it up... but I've continued eating clean(ish) and doing some kind of physical activity a few times a week, so this time it's easier.

    GOOD LUCK!!! If you ever need motivation, I could dig up before/after pics. Just keep it up because you WILL see results and you will be so happy.

    Absolutely works I'm on level three about half way through ( almost done ) and I've lost inches every where and a total of 11 lbs so far my next weigh is Saturday..my best advice is too stick with it no matter how sore/tired/ or hard you think it is just push through and you will get stronger and you will get shredded:-) ..don't cheat the workouts either then its no use even if you have to do the modified versions the whole way it will still work this I can stand by:-) good luck girly!

    DAY 2 COMPLETE :)

    Atta girl, keep with it! It gets easier, and addicting. I feel bad when i miss a day. I am in the middle of level 2. Feel free to add me for motivation :)
  • I am in the middle of level 2 (second time doing this) and seeing some major differences. Not too much in the way of weight loss but have lost almost 4 1/2 inches all over. I feel stronger and am starting to look a little leaner. I too get bored with the video, but just keep pushing through and think of the results it will bring. Good Luck!

    Yes it definitely works, but only if you're willing to stick with it. I'm on Day 13, (day 3 of level 2) and took pics before and after Level 1. There was a huge difference for just 10 days. I can't wait to take pics after I finish Level 2 and compare! It's been taking fat off me but also toning. After like 5 days I could see definition in my back.
