I did my first time last night so I need all the encouragement I can get - count me in!

Xena32

Ahhh so glad so many members are in.

I picked up the dvd yesterday, haven't checked out the schedule yet but as far as i can tell no rest day - 30 days working out. I haven't worked out in five months. This is going to be a challenge

I am sooo in!!! I actually printed off a blank calendar and wrote in what level I will do each day (I get really bored easily so I am going to do each level for 2 days before switching to the next, in a circut for the full 30 days) and also figured out goals throughout the whole 30 day. Like on day 16 (which will be a Saturday) I have scheduled to go get a new Easter dress, since that is actually the day before Easter. And on the very last day, which is also a Saturday, I told my hubby that if I stick it out for the whole month, that we are going out danceing and he can not say no. Plus little incentives along the way (like stopping for starbucks one morning and going out to lunch instead of eating at my desk or in my car.) But all these prizes only get won if I stick with the plan EVERY DAY!! I can scan my calendar if yall want to see it?

I just started last night. Do you know how to calculate how many calories you burn in those 20 minutes since you are combining the cardio and strength?

Would like to know that too. Don't have a monitor/tracker at home either (about to go get one). But have no idea what to log as excercise for level 1 day 1.

I am wondering if I should switch the Workout levels up as well. Shouldn't you have a day rest between working certain muscles? But on the other side, I am guessing she does not switch the muscles, just the intensity of the workout.

I think your pretty much right about the intensity levels. From the part that I watched yesterday, she seemed to work the whole body pretty evenly throughout the workout. Usually if you work a specific area heavily (ie: legs or arms) then the next day you want to work something else (ie: abs). But you can keep going everyday switching off like that. Since in this video nothing is being left out and everything is being worked moderately and not too heavy, than its ok to keep going without too much of a break. If you make sure you take a hot bath the first couple of days after your workout and try to stretch really good while you are soaking, then you wont be as sore. Promise! I really would not suggest doing this workout right before bed if you are just starting out again like me (I havent really worked out in about 2 years) because you really need to keep moving after an intense workout like this or you will cramp and it will HURT!!!

Xena32

Thanks so much! Good thought! I will do the workout in the morning then and make sure to stretch before and after.

Count me in!

Hi guys,

Enjoy today!!! Tomorrow Jilian will kick our butts!

KevinsCatie

OMGoodness I can not wait! This is the first time in about, oh I dont know....EVER that I have actually been excited about 1) working out and 2)..... waking up early!! I mean I wake up early as it is, usually around 6, but I gotta tell ya, I hate it. But I'm hoping this will be different, mainly since my hubby is gonna wake up and do it with me.

twinsmom7602

Sure, I am in.. How would we log that in the exercise portion of MFP? How many Calories would one burn doing this for 20 minutes, I know each body is different! I guess I am going to get the video's off You Tube. I was going to start April 1st, but hey, I am cool with starting a little early.

Log it as circuit traing for 20 min

I just started last night. Do you know how to calculate how many calories you burn in those 20 minutes since you are combining the cardio and strength?

Cassea7

I did it everday for 10 days then i switched to ripped in 30 big mistake..I like "the Shred" better..I will start with you!

Xena32

Cassea what did you like better about the Shred?

CarlaH0318

I'll do it!!! Plus I am still going to do my Leslie Sansone videos as well! I love those too!

yurika975

I have been doing this for the week. I have done levels 1 and 2 before. I had a shopping incident and came home to workout lol. I am doing lv 3. I like it the best (though I don't care for those jumping lunges)I combine it with another workout like Taebo ultimate. I have lots to burn.

tmarch13

When you do the 30 ds, are you doing any other workouts. I run 3-4 days a week so i like to do this workout on my "off" running days. Just seeing if anyone else is in the same boat.

mbar2010

I'll join you all too! Did 20 days last month then fell out of the routine - was totally loving it as well!
