This group is for anyone starting Jillian Michael's Shred on Monday, January 10th, 2011
What You'll Need:
1. All you need to do is pick up Jillian Michael's 30 Day workout DVD at Walmart, London Drugs or any such place (about $10).
2. You'll also need a pair of hand weights (3 or 5 pounds to start) or even just a couple of soup cans or water bottles used as hand weights will do!
3. If you're exercising on hardwoods you may want something non-slip such as a yoga mat for the floor work.
What To Expect:
1. There are three levels in this workout. Each level is done for 10 days before you progress to the next. The idea being you do Level 1 for 10 days, move onto Level 2 for 10 days and finish up with Level 3 for 10 days (you can do each level longer or shorter depending on your fitness level).
2. Each level runs approximately 25 minutes in length. Each will include a warm up, 3 minutes of strength training, 2 minutes of cardio and 1 minute of abs (3-2-1 method repeated 3 times, each circuit with different moves) and finally a cool down.
What To Do:
1. Start on January 10th, 2011!
2. Take your before measurements. Measure each arm (thickest part), each thigh (thickest part), upper waist (smallest) and lower waist (at your belly button), and your hips (biggest part). Write it down. You'll be glad you did when you compare your measurements at the end of 30 days! You can also take front, back and side pictures in the same outfit Day 1 and Day 30. Sometimes your body's changes aren't visible to you until you see the final results.
3. Share the 30 day journey here. Stay accountable in this forum.
Good luck fellow Shredders!

Hi 911girl- I wasn't planning to do the Jillian Michaels 30 day Shred- but I'm encouraged to start it since "a buddy out in work out world" is planning to Have you heard good things about the 30 day shred? I have 15 lbs. I would like to lose and I'm on a mission to do it. I will look for the Shred at Walmart...hopefully start it on the 10th as well.

I was going to start that day anyways!! I am totally in and excited to share results with everyone!! Hope it works!0

Yay! I'm so excited everyone. Glad we're doing it together. Having the online support is KEY.
I've done the Shred before but without 'watching my diet' (I was nursing). I'm no longer nursing and I'm going to conquer The Shred with a clean diet this time around and hopefully see even better results!0 -
I might try, if I can get the DVD in time.0

I'm glad I found this group! I just happened to pick up the DVD at the store since it was on sale and I've seen people talk about it on here before. It will be nice to do this with others :-) Can't wait!0

I'm in! This works out perfectly because it's my first day back to school so I have access to the little gym in my dorm again for weights.0

Ooooh great! Looks like there's going to be a fair-sized big group of us starting The Shred on the 10th! Jillian would be proud. ;-)0

How do you figure out calories burned for a routine workout like this?0 -

If you're not using a HRM to track calories burned, in this program pick "Calisthenics (pushups, sit-ups), vigorous effort" for 20 minutes under "Add Cardio Exercise". I've compared MFP's estimation against my HRM and it's very accurate.0 -
I just bought that dvd while browsing around costco a few days ago! I'm SO excited that there's a support group on here. I just started doing to diet diary thing yesterday. Perfect. I'm in.0
