30 Day Shred

Is anyone wearing a heart rate monitor. Whats your calorie burn in 30 day shred?

Yesterday was day 2 of level 1 for me, I wear a HRM - 217 Calories burned yesterday.

Just started day 1 yesterday but got interrupted 1/2 way through :-(....strange to see how few calories are burned since just 10 mins of jump rope per MFP burn 119 calories.

I started 30DS the day after Christmas, so I'll be doing day 9 tonight (on Level 1). My endurance is up ... but my arms are still feeling it because I have a past neck & shoulder injury. I've been losing inches. Unfortunately, I didn't measure in advance but I can tell by the way my clothes fit and the way I look. I've lost most of my weight already (a little less than 5 lbs to go) and am in the process of toning up now, but remember with this ... you're gaining muscle which weighs more than fat ... so you lose fat ... and gain muscle ... and if I'm staying even the same weight (right now I am), I figure that I've lost weight ... and I've lost a *LOT* of fat. I tend to have troubles in my stomach area and it's gotten a lot flatter. My arms tend to be skinny (lovely with a fat belly ... blah ...) and I can tell that I've got muscle there now. My legs also tend to be skinny (like I say ... charming with a fat belly ... blah ...) but they're getting a lot more definition. I finally feel like I'm getting back to the shape I was in 10 years ago ... and I like it. Anyway, the workout is hard ... but it kicks *kitten* ... and takes names ... and makes you feel better. (Hey, I even sleep better.) Don't give up. Fight through it. It's well worth it. My daughter gave me the DVD and it's been great. I'm sure Level 2, which I plan on starting Saturday, 1.5.13, will kick my butt too. I'm looking forward to it. It's definitely working. :bigsmile:

Oh and by the way ... I burn about 230 calories doing Level 1.

Thanks for the links...bump

Finished day 3 today -- planning to get through the program by the end of January! I definitely noticed even today that it was easier than day one (just easiER, not easy).

Any fellow 30DSers, I'd love to have you as friends! Add me

Just finished Day 2 Level 1 myself! I just finished P90 (not X, just plain P90), and I find it much more difficult than that, with about the same number of calories burned (for me, around 300, I'm 5'9 and 252). Really looking forward to quick workouts in the morning, before work. I'm also doing some Zumba, some in a class and some on the Kinect.

I'm on day 2 of level one, when should I move up to level 2?? Was thinking of doing 1st week level 1, then 2nd week level 2, then move on to level 3.

lol it's called the 30 day shred. You're supposed to do 10 days at each level

^^^ What this person said. :happy:

while it might be called the 30 day shred, jillian mentions that you should move up once you're ready.. so really, whenever you are ready. but i'd judge that by making sure you're doing the workout with great form and full out each time. once that becomes easy, move up.. i'll be doing 10 days of each. good luck.

I found it on youtube and started doing it, I did leval 1 on Monday and could hardly walk the next morning so I haven't been back yet. I really need to do that. I like that it's fast and challenging several muscles at a time. Thanks for reminding me. Maybe having the group will motivate me to actually do it.

ETA: with all the different moves she makes me do, I still find that faux jump roping crap to be the hardest. Seems so simple but I have a hard time doing it without stopping. Me and jumping don't get along.

The jump rope move gets me every time!!

There are 3 levels. You do each in order for 10 days each...

Very good workout, similar to my bodycamp blast sessions

This seriously kicks my butt. I run 3 days a week and do strength training 3 days, my husband got this for me to keep things interesting. I do this on days when I only have 30 minutes (instead of my usual hour) to devote to myself.

30 Day Shred is legit.

My ex bought it for me, and I will never forget the time I talked him into trying it...
He liked to think he was in perfect shape, and figured since the workout is geared towards women it would be cake but he struggled to keep up with me. It was only Level 2!
