in Motivation and Support
I plan on starting Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred Monday and I'm looking for motivation and support to help me make it through the entire 30 days! I'll also be running at least 3 days a week, before pics tomorrow and progression pics as I go.

Feel free to join in and post your before, during, and after pics as well!

    I'm starting on Monday also! Feel free to add me. I'd love to give/get support to keep at it! I've never made it the full 30 days before, but I'm going to tough it out this time.

    I'm hoping to be working slowly on Couch 25k too, but it might be slow going since I'm going to be training with a double jogging stroller.

    I would like to join too. Today is my first official day of starting. I need to be accountable and I think this would help. The only problem is I might be slower since I'm just starting to exercise again, but I will try my best.

    Thats the best workout dvd ever and that was the first dvd I did to start my weightloss. I'm not going to lie if your a newbie to excersise it will be HARD BUT PUSH THRU!!! Trust me do the modifications with ANITA if you have to but try to stay with Natalie. TRUST me after its done your going to be stronger , and plus I had lost 8 pounds with that DVD!! After that I went to Ripped in 30, the good thing is that its on 30 mins and you can do it :-)

    I'm going to do it as much as I can. I figured if I can't stay with every else, that just means I can try again next month without modifications :)

    I plan to start Monday as well! This is great because maybe I will stick with it partnering up with you lovely ladies. I have a question tho. Is the 30 day shred 30 days consecutively or do you workout 6 times a week with one rest day? How are you ladies doing it?

    I would like to join as well. I started it today and I've had a hard time finishing those crunches (i'm not always working out, very lazy person) :D Still, it's a good workout ! Good luck everybody !
    bkRaeLynn, when i've searched on Google, it's supposed to be 10 days on each level with no rest but I guess just listen to your body and don't push yourself hard to avoid injuries ...

    Count me in! I've also attempted, but never finished this program. I'm so ready to make some progress with weight loss. I'm also doing a c25k program. I'm using Zombies, Run! It's entertaining. :)

    The only thing I wont do is the crunches. I always balloon out when I do crunches so Im going to plank through that part

    I did the shred a few years ago. I only got through levels one and two during the 30 days and I was doing a Jillian Michaels' Slimdown challenge with it where I incorporated her Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism video and No More Trouble Zones. I lost a lot of inches with it. It really got me wanting to workout a lot more. I did it as a New Year's resolution that year and I progressed a month and a half later to P90X.

    It is really good but I found it very hard on the knees though. The jumping Jacks killed me.

    Just wanted to say to you all, I'm on day 29 out of 30, and it is SO WORTH IT!! it will get really hard, for me it was a few days into level 2, and i wanted to quit. I am so glad that I didn't. Having forum friends to check in with really helped keep me going. 2 more days to go and i'm looking forward to them.

    I wish you all luck! :flowerforyou:

    I started on M arch 26th, I am sore but not sure if I dare take a rest day out of fear I will quit.
    Looking for others who are doing the shred for support and motivation.

    Advice from a 30 day shredder and current Ripped in 30 participant... If you need to stay on a level longer than you are supposed to, don't get discouraged! I had to repeat level 2 for another week before I was ready for level 3. Either way you are kicking butt and after finished 30 day shred, though I didnt lose any weight I looked like I lost 10 pounds at least. I have so much more definition in my arms and legs! I'm currently in Ripped in 30 week 1 and am feeling pretty sore today.

    Oh and if you are sore, keep to it! I was sore yesterday and contemplated skipping a day yesterday, but by the time the warm up is done, your muscles are nicely stretched and you dont really feel sore. I was glad I worked out.
