30 Day Shred - Day 1!!

It's day 2 for me. I did it once before and quit after 3 days....this time I'm doing 30 days straight! There's a group dedicated to people who started the shred yesterday

---

lotsa motivational and helpful people there. You should look it up! * 30 day shred partners*

Good luck everyone! :happy:

It's day 1 for me and it was awesome! I am someone who has done very little exercise in the past few years, except walking 15 min to and from work. The work out was tough but tolerable but I am definitely feeling it. I also tried a sample of the Vega Sport Pre-Workout Energizer and I feel like it did wonders. It made me feel energized and helped me get through the tough strength training too.

For anyone who is doing this, I would love to hear your results/feedback/progress on doing the 30 day shred. Please feel free to add me as a friend!

It's a great day to start shredding. 30 minutes of house chores this morning and a walking lunch is all I can manage today. Please tell me more about this Shred thing. What counts etc.

It's a Jillian Michael's workout on DVD. It's a 30 day program with 10 days/level. Of course, like others have stated, it may take some of us a bit longer than 10 days before we're ready to move up. I've never actually done it like you're supposed to. I actually use it when it's inclement weather and I feel I'd rather stick needles in my eye than get on the treadmill! lol It's a great workout for sure...although I'm ALWAYS convinced it's personal and she's truly SETTING OUT to kill me! :P

I have had the 30day shred DVD for a while_- I can do level 2 and feel I get a good workout-especially for20 minutes! I would suggest folks who have not been exercising lately to start slowly- do the level every other day- without weights even until you are comfortable with the moves. On the other days I do a yoga DVD (am/pm yoga is a good beginning ) and/or some cardio (walk,bike,etc) . just because it's called 30 day shred it doesn't' mean you have to do it 30 days in a row! It's not going to help if you hurt yourself!

I just started it today with my mom. It wasn't too difficult, but gave me just enough burn & accelerated heart rate to get in a good workout. However, I don't feel like the 20 minutes are enough for me, so I'm adding in an extra 30-40 minutes of cardio as well. Feel free to add me! (:

I just started this morning. How do you add it as exercise? I was putting it under circut training last year, when I would do it. I am hoping to have the motivation to stick with it this time. I've never made it more than 3 days in before.

The only way I know to add it as exercise is if you have a HRM & use the calories burned on there...they don't have anything listed on MFP, & it varies too much depending on the person to really have an accurate burn without a HRM...

Ok! Phew!

I just did it.
I like Jillian Michaels. I was worried she'd be screaming at me. I like how she actually supported you.

I have two concerns thus far with this:

-I have no proper room space for it
-I have no weights
-How do I log this why isn't there a premade cardio exercise for this in MFP Aaaaaaaaaah

My kids have lost my weights so I just use household products! Today I used 2-1 liter bottles of water!

I was told to log it as circuit training
