30 day shred and what jillian says

I wish I could do this program, but it shredded my knees! I don't have great knees anyway, complicated I'm sure by the fact that I'm very overweight. I tried her 30DS, and liked it, but couldn't MOVE the next day. My knees hurt for ages after that.
You were probably bringing your knee over your toes in the lunges. I did this the first couple of times too and then when i realised it an readjusted the pain went away. The first couple of days killed me both times i did the shred I cried walking down the stairs I was in so much pain but i found if you stick it out after a few days the pain goes away.
It's a fantastic program and i lost 1lbs and inches. I'm about to start my 3rd round of it tonite.0 -
I wonder if that info is on the dvd? I have it and I dont remember seeing it.0

Ah, thanks for the info! I've had her dvd for a while, but I've not done it yet...I was like..um...I don't have 30 days straight to do this! I will start adding it into my workout this weekend...two days a week...and I teach Zumba as well, so hopefully that can count of my cardio!0

On her other DVD "ripped in 30" she does say to take a rest day so I figured there might of been some back lash. It probably wouldnt be a big deal to do it straight for 6 days if you are some what fit but for those just starting I would think the 2 days on then 1 day off would be better because when you dont already exercise you are more likely to feel extremely sore or get injured.0

So, that's why my knees been kind of hurting!!!!!!!0 -
I am so grateful for this information! I thought it was close to impossible for me to do any type of rigorous boot-camp style activity like this for 30-days straight. I'm surprised that she doesn't mention this routine that she is suggesting (2 days of Shred, 1 Cardio, 2 Days of Shred, 1 Cardio, then a Day of Rest) right up front on the her 30 Day Shred video. That would be the wise thing, so that people would treat their bodies properly, and not injure themselves!!! Ah well, thanks to MFP, there is this info sharing going on!!!!0

It messed my knee up as well. I can't do it.0 -
That's really nice to know. I was so sore after day 1 this week that I just did cardio on what would have been day 2 and then did cardio and day 2 yesterday.0

i didnt know this! comon sense kinda told me this, but i read some other articles that made it sound like 10 days of each level in a row.
I have been doing the shred mostly everyday strait through, with the odd day here and there i miss for curling or other physical activities. I have not been sore after the work outs, and most days i dont feel like 20 mins was enough of a work out. (and im not a super fit person). but i am seeing some results, i have not lost any lbs, but i have lost about 6 inches total, and i have about 9 days left.0 -
I also had problems with my knees when doing this workout. I think it was the jumping jacks.0

I remember thinking, "I got this." Lol Jill kicks yo *kitten*! I was planning doing her routines for the burn on off days. I know its going to take me a good 6 months of consistency before I start looking ripped (at my pace).
Makes total sense to include rest days. I also bought her book. It had a lot of insight and good recipes. I like her because her body type is close to mine. That is an old video, but I love it. She's a good motivator.0 -
Thank you!!! I am currently doing the 30ds, again. The first time, I did it for 30 days straight, which I found very hard. I didn't have enough energy left over for anything else and ended up getting away from the running. ( And I've been running for 5 years and don't want to give it up! ). This time, I am doing 30ds one day and running, the next but I am not seeing results as fast as I would like. So, I will definitely try it this way!0

Thank you for posting this, I was wondering that too. Is it the same with her 6 pack in 6 weeks workout too do you think?0
-
I just did three days straight and my muscles are seriously burning (they burn all day and kill when I do the 30DS the next morning). Does JM intend for us to do this every day? I really want to have great results, but I also don't want to injure myself. :ohwell:0

Thank you so much for posting this! I just finished my third straight day and I'm already struggling. Adding in elliptical, running, and a rest day will be great for me. My muscles definitely need time to rest!0
-
You're not supposed to do this everyday, you're a supposed to take rest days 2/3 rest days a week. The program is designed to be done 5 days a week. Your muscles won't get chance to grow and change if you don't rest up. Resting promotes them to heal and grow. Doing this 30 days straight is not only dangerous but stupid!0
-
very interesting thank you!0
-
Interesting. Maybe that is why I only managed Level 1 and a couple of days of Level 2 before I gave up.0
