Helllooo!!! Okay, so I'm back on MFP after a big fall off the wagon. :( NO excuses I know, so I won't even bother explaining. But I need to get my *kitten* back into gear! And I started reading a bunch of threads on the 30D Shred. I'm totally in! BUT now that it's June 5, it looks like I'm too late for the June 1st start. I'm going to buy her DVD tomorrow, and take measurements. Wanting to start June 7 or 8... anyone in the same boat and want to do the 30D Shred with me???

    I've already joined the other board, but I got sick and then I got huge blisters on my feet, so I couldn't start with them. I'm starting over today, and I'll be with you!

    Okay, so finished with L1D1. I don't think I burned quite as many calories as I did last time. (I've done level 1 like for 10 days, just sporadically... during April) It was still a great workout. I burn maybe 50-100 calories less than walking for 30 minutes, but it's like 100 degrees outside. :) So, 30 day shred is so much better! On the DVD box, it says you can lose up to 20 pounds in 30 days. I really hope so. That would be awesome!


    Good luck everybody!

    I did the shred twice this week for the first time. I've decided to try to do it every other day & I'm going to attempt C25K the other days. I actually need to go do it right now & get my sweat on! :laugh:

    What is the 30d shred?????

    It's a workout DVD with Jillian Micheals from the Biggest Loser. You can get it at walmart for about $10. Basically, it's a circut training workout. 6 minute warmup/cooldown and 20 minutes of alternating between strength training, cardio, and abs. There's three levels, level 1 being the easiest. There's no calendar for the three levels, but many suggest doing level 1 for ten days, level 2 for ten, and then level 3 for the last ten. (You can move on to the next level whenever you're ready though) All you need is some weights (I use two pound weights) and a DVD player, of course.

    I'm starting today (Sunday). I hate the Shred, in a good way.
  • I have the DVD and love it, but haven't used it in a while. I'm down to start whenever, let me know and we'll do it together!

  • I started the 30 Day Shred on June 4th so i'm a little ahead but I'd love to be part of this group. I'm on L1D4 and am feeling not too bad, except for the muscles I didn't know I had! LOL Someone posted that they hate this video but in a good way and I can agree!! I find myself wanting to yell at Jillian when she says she understands how hard it is! LOL I hope to have great results from this and that it helps to change my lifestyle for the better!

    cccng, I'll start with you on the 8th. How many times a week is everyone doing it?

    GRRRR!!!! I couldn't get the DVD! I saw it at Best Buy last week and they're out of stock, when I went there yesterday to buy it. :sad: I looked everywhere else too.... my quest will continue tomorrow to find it... I'm determined!!! Because this is my fault, if you want to start a new group, I understand!!! Otherwise, assuming I can track one down by the end of the week I plan to start June 15th. That will make it easy. If anyone wants to start then, awesome!

    In the meantime, I picked up a jump rope for the first time since I was probably 9. OH MY GOSH!!! Intense workout! I have a friend who transformed her entire body, and she's a HUGE inspiration for me. She started out getting her exercise in by jumping rope. So I tried it and I'm in love. :heart:

    I'll add the shred into my skipping, and I hope to do it everyday for the full 30 days!

    Kinda feel like a failure. I did start like 3 days ago, and I just didn't do day 2 (or day 3). So, starting over again!! I think this is like the 4th time I've started over. I did D1L1 yesterday; do not let me miss L1D2! I've actually set a reward for finishing all 30 days in a row this time. Maybe I'll buy a new outfit. :) I'm doing it no matter what and not missing a day.... Or else no reward!

    Good luck everybody!! We can do this.
  • I got the 30 day shred a couple months ago but only did 4 days of it before i got really busy with work so now im looking to start it again. I have a trip to aruba planned at the end of July and i want to whip my butt (or abs more specifically!) in shape! I will be re-starting the 30 day shred tomorrow. I am not overweight, but i want to tone up and get rid of the dreaded pooch on my lower stomach. lets do this! : )

    There's another thread for a June 15th start - I STILL haven't found one, so I'm going to be out until I can get it. :sad:

    In the meantime I'm still doing cardio and circuit training, just not shred style. But I would find the other thread and join in on that one! Seems like there's a lot more people on it!

    Looks like I'll have to do the amazon way, and that will take at least another week, if not more. BUT I will be close behind.

    HAPPY SHREDDING!!!!!!!! :wink:

    I got mine at Barnes and Noble. It was $14.99 though. :ohwell: You can check online if they have it at your local B&N. Go to their website and search for the video. Then it gives you an option on the side along the lines of "Pick up at Store" and you enter your zip code and voila! :smile:

    Have you tried looking in Walmart? That's where I got mine.

    Actually, I sort of like that it's just so few people here. Seems like more one-on-one support. :)

    L1D3 just completed. Hooray!
