I'm looking to start both programs March 1 or 2! I'll make a group to keep us motivated if I can get enough interest!

    I'm actually on week 2 of doing this! I've been doing T25 followed by level 1 of the 30 DS. I'm thinking of moving to level 2 next monday.

    How has it been so far? I'm hoping I haven't bitten off more than I can chew!

    What is that?

    The 30 Day Shred is a Jillian Michaels DVD. Couch to 5K is a free running app, where it gets you ready to run (jog) a 5k in 8 weeks!

    I'm doing something similar im doing c25k with jmbr instead of 30ds, been at it a few days now and I prefer the c25k to the cardio dvds as I can get out and run in the park

    Just wanted to say good luck! I started 30DS right as I was ending C25K. It kills me to run 30 minutes and do 30DS on the same days now.

    Presently, I am doing a 30-Day Challenge, which ends on March 16 with a family member. We are working out 6 to 7 days/week with seven of Jillian Michaels' DVDs.

    I would not mind doing this with you, but I won't be able to start until after March 17.

    Well, let me know if you or someone else is interested in doing a 30-Day Challenge combining c25k with one of Jillian Michael's DVDs after March 17 or April 1. :smile:

    Good luck and God speed...

    I'll be doing Ripped in 30 and #walkb4urun (another 5k training plan spread out over 11 weeks) so I'm definitely interested! Feel free to add me!

    I'm not doing both but I'm planning on alternating them. One week 30DS and the other C25K. I just don't like working out twice a day because of all the calories I burn and I just don't want to eat 500 more calories LOL. But I'm with ya! :bigsmile:

    What type of schedule are you planning on doing? I'm on week 5 of C25K and have been doing 30S on my off days from jogging. I felt like I wasn't exercising enough so this week I started doing C25k/30S or cardio/30S each day instead of switching. Only my second day doing this but really starting to feel the burn. I moved up to Level 2 of 30S and its killer but so worth it.

    I am doing this :) Mon-Wed-Fri C25k, Tu-Thu 30DS, and Sat Jillian Michaels' Killer Abs DVD. Sun = rest day. I am only on my first full week of doing it, but I really like it so far. I have a 5k in May to get my butt in shape for, and I also would like to lose some inches and tone up which 30 DS has done for me in the past.

    How have you found this to work out? I'm also on week 5 of C25K and just started doing the 30DS. Wondering if I should run my 3 days per week and then do the 30DS on the days I do not run, or if I should just do the 30DS every day (w/run days). I want results, but don't want to be so beat I can't move...lol! Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

    I am interested in this too - I'm on week 7 C25K but may have to re-do as I'm finding this week very hard. I'm currently doing strength training 2/3 times per week, but thinking of doing 30DS in the mornings as it's quick and gets me going (whereas I struggle to run first thing!).

    I just started doing both. Usually I'll do my 30 DS video and then follow that up with a leisurely walk of about 3/4 of a mile, which helps get some of that post 30DS soreness/stiffness out of my legs. Then I'll do a brisk walk/jog for about 2 miles. My legs feel tired, but doing this all back to back really makes me feel like I'm getting a good workout in. I'm not following the C25K program exactly (yet) because I have flat feet that give me alot of pain when I exercise and limits my running capabilities. Hopefully my new running shoes I bought today can help with this and as I lose weight I'm sure that will as well.

    I'm in week 5 of C25K and just stared the 30 day shred. Interested to see how things are going and how you set up the 30DS with the C25K (did you do 30DS everyday even on run days, or alternate). If you start a group, I'd be interested in joining.

    Thanks and keep up the good work!

    I would love to join this. I just finished week 3 of c25k and starting next week i'd like to find something for Tue and Thu when i'm not running. Will order 30 day shred today!

    did level 1 today. i think having done the c25k for a few weeks helped a lot, because it was hard but not as rough as i feared based on some of the comments i've seen here. how are y'all doing?
