in Introduce Yourself
As the title says I just started Jillian Michaels: Ripped in 30 program and my god I am aching already after only a couple of sessions. I went to zumba class yesterday and was literally almost dying through the whole thing because my body was sore.

Is anyone following this program? Would love to hear about other peoples experience/success with it.

I want to lose 60lbs in ideally the next 6-9 months. Keep your fingers crossed for me!! :)

    I did my first work out Monday and I couldn't even do it yesterday because I was so sore!! Getting up and down from the chair at my desk at work is torture lol. I am going to stretch good tonight so that I can get back to doing it and hopefully keep up with it every day. Good luck! Add me if you want support!

    Good luck! I started on Monday too, I amended my diet as well and I've lost 4.5 inches in 3 days from my TI and I honestly think it's due to this workout. Those results are amazing for me! It hurts but it's so worth it.

    Is this a high impact workout like her 30 Day Shred is?

    I'll send you a FR. I am doing Rin30 also. This is my second round. I finished it last time. I really like this and the 30 day shred. I actually started this one last week, but after the weekend off, I am counting yesterday as my Day 1. We'll be pretty close on the finishing schedule.

    It is very similar to 30 DS. She introduces some new moves and changes up some of the ones from 30 DS, but overall it is really similar. Both very effective.

    Hi! I'm doing it too, but I only do it every other day its super hard for me!! What a great workout for only 30 mins, I am on round two (and like I said I only do it every other day) and can definitely see the results in my tummy and arms. In fact my friends said they could tell I looked more toned.

    Last week I did ripped and Yoga on alternating days, I was really sick recently so energy's been rough. Now that I've finally kicked the cold I still think I'll keep it every other just because I like to mix things up.

    However... needless to say I'm scared to go on to round 3 this weekend!!!!

    Also - how are you tracking it? Do you just use "circuit training" or ??

    Okay thanks! At the moment high-impact workouts aren't the best choice for me.

    These look like great workouts and I hope all of you are successful with them! :-)

    I track the strength and abs section as circuit and then I log the cardio part as aerobics :)

    I am at the start of week 2. It is awesome :) I did 30DS before. I log it as circuit training only, 35 mins.

    Let's keep each other posted and motivated :)

    I'm just finishing it, I have two days left of week 4. It's hard going, but if I can do it you can do it!! I got great results with 30 DS, results from RI30 are less obvious, but my strength and stamina have increased SO MUCH :smile:

    I started this I was so sore for days I get boarded though and cant do the whole thing in one hit so I break it up and do 10 mins a day I hope it will still work. I also tried her boxing video that was really good but hard and I didn't get board as it was fun
    because of work I do 10 mins about four times a day and I am still sore lol

    Good job on starting Jillian. She is tough! The thing about her workouts is yeah the first few days you are incredibly sore---I hate the fact that I have stairs when I start her workouts after time off.....but I find that doing her workout even when sore helps ease the soreness so just try and push through...it helps work the tightness of the muscles out those first few days. Try not to take a rest day until after 5-6 days of workouts...I know its tough but I promise that it works---well that and hot showers lol

    I second this! Push through the pain and you will honestly feel better afterwards :) I only rest on the days I go to zumba and even then I don't feel like I get as good a workout.

    Yall are both right. Taking a day off was bad idea lol. I did it yesterday even though I was still hurting and it did help eleviate the pain some. I'm not going to take any breaks til the 6th day from now on :) thanks guys!

    Hey all! I started Ripped in 30 last week. I do my best to do it no less than four times a week. I love Jillian. I actually end up chuckling at her during the DVD because I find her "Napoleon Complex" hilarious! I can tell Jillian is going to be a good trainer for me simply because of her personality. Somehow she manages to push you and keep the tone light and humorous at the same time. I completed Week 1 and began Week 2 yesterday. Week 1 killed my legs! Jello legs is what I felt like. Simply getting up from a chair hurt after that week. Now I'm onto Week 2 and I see it seems to focus more on abs this week as opposed to legs in Week 1. Nice change I must say since my tummy is my trouble zone. Don't judge! We all have them, right? Anyway, Week 2 is kicking my *kitten* thoroughly but I'm anxious to see what results I see with all this ab work.

    Also, I wanted to let everyone know that Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30 program calories burned are as follows:

    Week 1: approx 275 calories
    Week 2: approx 300 calories
    Week 3: approx 275 calories
    Week 4: approx 260 calories

    This is for a 135 lb woman using 5lb weights, so adjust higher if you weight more or use heavier dumbells, or lower if you weight less or use lighter weights. Hope this helps everyone! Friend me if you'd like support. I took my beginning pics but haven't uploaded them...I'm kinda thinking of waiting til I have "after" photos to post as well. What do y'all think?

    I have been thinking about starting zumba classes for a while. They are $6 per session and our local zumba instructor has classes twice a day three times a week. Thats $40 a week if I want to take all of them! The most I would probably consider is three classes, one a day. I hear they are a lot of fun and I love dancing so I'm sure I'd enjoy them. Have to try one out and see I guess. Which of the Zumba classes do you like best? Because I know they have different kinds.
