I love workout DVD's, however, I get bored easily and have a tendency to use many different DVD's in one week! I really want to take 4 weeks and complete Jillian Michael's Ripped in 30! I want to see what type of results I have after 4 weeks. Does anyone want to join in completing the program??? I could use the motivation to work through it and would love some companions to discuss what changes you are experiencing!! I am planning on starting today and will probably do each workout 5 to 6 times in that week!!!

    I am planning to start it on Friday after I've completed the 30 Day shred, which should be Thursday. I'd love to join you then, I could always use some motivation!

    I'll join, I am planning on starting this workout today. I have done the 30 day shred a few times but have never been able to finish the 30 days. How often are you going to do the workout?

    I've been doing Shed & Shred for 2 weeks, at least 5x a week - it's tough, but I LOVE it! I'm already stronger and feel much more firm all over. My shoulders and arms look strong, and I can feel my muscles in my obliques and back already. Yay!
    It's very tiring, I'm on the floor a lot after but so worth it. You CAN do this!

    I just finished Week 1, Day 1 today and then saw this thread! I definitely need some motivation and accountability.

    Nice to see some fellow workout partners!! I'm planning on working out 5 to 6 times per week! I want to go through the entire 4 week session! I'm not going to have set workout days because my weeks change so much I don't want the pressure! I just want to at least get 5 or 6 workouts within the week

    I'll join in! Was going to start today but I ended up with another migraine so I haven't gotten a chance to workout.
    I tend to get them when I'm stressed- and graduation (college) is right around the corner! So I think getting ripped would be a good distraction :)

    I'm the same as you though, I've started this program and the 30 DS BILLIONS of times. I never get past week 2. >.<
    Motivation needed! Let's do this. I'll hopefully start tomorrow!
