Anyone else there have done or been doing JM's 30 day Slimdown program?

I'm on Day 25 and for the next few days, it looks like I'll do doing 2 DVDs in a day like No more trouble zone + Shred. Are we suppose to do these back to back or can I split them up like morning and night??

I don't know if it is less effective if I break them up?

Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    Hey,
    I'm starting this next month after I complete the shred. I don't think it'll be less effective at all. I mean who has time to do over an hour at once? I know I don't not with a child! So I will definitly be splitting them up as am/pm. I have read in so many different places as well that it doesn't matter if you split your exercise routine up during the day as long as you get the required minutes.
    There has been studies on it I think. I can't remember where I read it though! But its been in more than one article that I am certain of.

    Thanks for replying! No one replied!!

    I had better result with Shred, however, I was a lot more diligent with my diet when I did the Shred as well. So far I've lost only 3lbs doing the Slimdown but my shoulders, back and biceps are becoming quite defined...I haven't been as good with my diet as I was last month so that could be why I'm not getting that good of results..

    I agree with you on the timing as well, I don't think it'll be bad if I split them up...

    Thanks again for replying!

    I would say you are safe to break them up, especially since they are 2 different workout routines. I start on monday and am excited to see the results.
    I just finished 30DS and loved it. Good luck girls!

    I think it would be fine if you can't get them done at the same time. I think the goal is just to do them!

    I am doing this now also. I'm on day 20 and back on day 15 we were supposed to do quick zones and level 1. I was not able to do it too hard!! But when I had to do level 1 and 2 together I felt awesome!! I would say you are fine to do them seperately especially if you dont have time!
