Soo I started the 30 Day Shred today with my mom and sister. I was soo excited to start it! It was definitely an excellent workout but I didn't feel it as much as I thought I would... however that may change tomorrow!
Also, we only used soup cans (i know, go ahead and laugh! but the only weights we have at home are in my dad's gym in the basement (he is a former Mr. Ontario... so his weights aren't exactly realistic for us lol!!) and we didn't have time to go out and buy any- so we improvised! We will be getting 3lb weights in the next few days though for a better workout experience!
How has everyone else done with this workout? I have heard some great stories and seen some amazing photographs!!
I am currently 5'6 and 128lbs, hoping to get down to 125 buuut realistically just hoping for some toning and if that includes some weight gain from muscle thats fine with me! I am not new to exercising, I used to run every day but school this past year has been stressful. Anyone else out there with similar stats who has done the 30DS and can tell me what kind of results to expect from it? (I will probably also do at least 20 minutes on the elliptical 5 days a week while also doing the shred everyday).
Thanks all! Looking forward to results and also hearing back from those of you who have done or are currently doing it!

you'll get there. You sound dedicated just keep pushing, watch what you eat and show up for workouts committed. The definition will come0

I have done the Shred and her new Ripped in 30, I loved it because it truly did tone me up and give me the definition I needed. I have a bunch of weight I want to lose so I do INSANITY as well, but I use her stuff too because of the weights she uses. I used 5 lbs weights, because I didn't really feel much after doing the workouts with 3 lbs, but like she says throughout her videos any weight adds resistance and will give results...even soup cans, LOL. Good creativity, LOL0

Haha thanks lol, creative yes! I've wanted to try Insanity but I think I want to get back into the workout regimen again before I go that intense! How is it?? I've heard great things about that as well!0 -
I used juice bottles instead of weights hehe. I might try soup cans this time!! :P0

Awesome!!! Yah I was thinking 2 or 3lb weights would be good to start with! Some of the exercises I felt like I could do a million of and some I was struggling with with my little soup cans haha! Can't wait for tomorrow!!!0 -
I just finished Day 5 of Level 1.
I'm using 2lb weights because it was either those or 5lb ones and I knew those would be far too hard.
I was crazy sore the first 3 days but yesterday wasn't too bad and since my legs were feeling much better I was able to push myself a lot harder in the leg area of the shred. It was pretty nice.
The first circuit though is totally what gets me though! That's where I find I'm taking most of my breaks.
Anyone feel free to add me Always up for having people to talk to/motivate/get motivation from0
