I just ordered a "30 Day Shred" DVD and I should have it tomorrow. I was just wondering ahead of time what 'tools' ... (weights, resistance bands, stability ball, etc.) I might be needing. I want to be prepared and just be able to jump in without the surprise of... "Oh, I need to go out and buy one of those first."

any input would be appreciated :)

thanks so much!

    All you need is a mat and 3 pounds weights. Good luck!

    Just light hand weights and a mat if you're not doing it on carpet. I finished level 1 day 8 today! Yea!

    I don't use the mat because I do it on carpet. So just weights for me, and water because I tend to want to drink a lot when working out.

    Earplugs so you don't have to listen to Jillian. Just kidding. You can turn off her voice on the dvd. :wink:

    If you can I would get some 5 pound hand weights as well. I use 3 lbs for some of the exercises (shoulder work is torture for me!!) but once you get going you'll probably want to move up on at least a few of the exercises (the chest flys come to mind).

    I love love love this DVD - good luck!!

    I just ordered the videos too, and I was wondering if anyone was able to find them in the exercise database. I can't seem to? Does anyone know the calorie burn or how do you add it to your tracker?

    I started today and got told to log it as "Circuit Training - General"

    Hope that helps

    Just an FYI I just picket up the 30 day shred for $9 :) at Target. Check it out, it may be cheaper than online.


    I start the 30 day shred tomorrow and I also have a Zumba fitness class starting this week.

    BJ's has the videos for $7. I picked up 30 Day Shred and Banish Fat Boost Metabolism. So far on week 2 I'm alternating doing one one day and the other the next. It's a good way to not get bored.
