30 Day Shred, starting March 1st and would LOVE company!

beejelblor

I got the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred video and will be starting this Friday afternoon. I would LOVE to have company as I have heard this video is not easy and will probably help to have support

I joined MFP about 2 years ago and have been touch and go with it, I lost my bulk weight and have now seemed to get too comfortable with just being at a healthy weight 10lbs over my original goal... now it is time to tone up and finish what I started. No more getting winded when walking up hills or having flabby arms! Lets see if I can actually get that stomach I envy but never thought was actually achievable.

Feel free to add me if you would like to join the challenge

If you have not looked into 30 day shred there are many forums on it throughout MFP with amazing success stories with unbelievable before and after pics as well as great encouragement. If you can't start exactly on Friday it is totally fine cause we will all have different rest days, I am thinking it will take me at least through Mid April to get through all 30 days of workouts. Don't forget your before and after pics

I completed day 4 of level 1 this morning. I've modified a couple that included the jumping because they wouldn't be good for my previously broken ankle and leg. But I do everything else (to the best of my present ability). I feel good when done and seem to be developing some strength. It does seem a little bit easier each day so can't wait to see where I am at day 10.

I'm going to do 10 days at each level. Maybe 9 days and 1 rest day in between. Good luck!

edited to try to get the pics to show!

I am SOOO excited to see results like yours!!! You look great!!!

Hi!

I'd like to join, if I may?

L1D1 done today

Happy shredding!!

musini

Hiya! I'm in - L1 D1 yesterday. My beach body - here I come!

Okay, today had an interesting thought . Starting shred tonight after kids are in bed. I just realized it's March 1st. My third (and last) baby is turning 1 on April 2. How crazy awesome would that be if I finished the 30 shred and was in ridiculous shape exactly one year after giving birth to #3??? That would Rock.

Just took my before pics so i could look for change. Scary! OMG. Hope this helps me.

VpinkLotus

Okay done with D1 L1 now. Wow. Kicked my booty but I am ready for tomorrow!

Does anyone know how many calories we are burning for each of the level's the exercise tool does not list this.....

Mrs_Charisma

Thank you!!!

If you haven't done the shred before, understand that MOST see progress in the form of toning and lost inches - not necessarily pounds. I only had a 2.2 net loss but lost 3.5 inches off my waist alone!!!

My advice if the lack pf scale progress gets you down is to ignore it. If you must weigh yourself, remember to take measurements and pics.

I restarted again on Wednesday, but I'm in too

This is the formula I found on another post. I guess it's what Jillian lists for calorie burn for 30DS. 3.267 x your weight in pounds = cal burned per hour. I then devided that # by three and just counted 20 min as I figrued warm up/cool down wasn't much of a burn anyway. Mine came to 143 cals for 20 minutes.

I started last month and finished Day 5 of Level 2 Yesterday. I do it during the week days and plan on spending 15 days on Level 2 and 15 on Level 3. I do modify the butt kicks. I have bad knees. I had to give up running a few years ago and have found that I have to baby my knees if I want to continue to exercise with out pain. I do not have the arm strength to do anything resembling a push up so maybe I'll develop this by the time I finish the program:)

Just finished day 1 level 1! I charted my body measurements and now need to get a day one photo (yikes)

Log it as 20 mins Circuit Training. It will then calculate calories burned based on your weight.

Ok, can someone ease my slight confusion?

I started 2 days ago, but when I bought it, there were 3 episodes, Levels, 1, 2 and 3.

Does that mean that you repeat the same workout every day for 10 days, then switch levels?

I'm doubting myself because I was a big underwhelmed with the workout. Maybe its because I have a background in bootcamps and personal training, but I didnt see how that Level 1 workout would catapult me into their advertised 20 pounds and xx inches lost in 30 days. I'm also surprised there isnt more versatility in the program.

Anyone know wassup? Thx

I did Level 1, day 2 yesterday.

10 days and move up a level, Level 2 is more intense, many say it's even harder than level 3. If your not challenged enough on level maybe try heavier hand weights?

Finished day two of the 30 Day Shred. How long are y'all staying on level 1? So glad to be working on this in a group.

stormydaze_02

I was planning on doing 10 days each level. I'm on Day 8 of Level 1, so will see how i go. I'm not actually finding it much easier than day 1 yet LOL

Mrs_Charisma

I'm also doing 10 days at each level.

For the person who didn't find level 1 challenging, try heavier weights! I did round 1 starting with soup cans and moving up to 5 lb weights. Now I use 8 lb weights for all but those dang anterior lunges with leg raises. Grrr! LOL!
