Thrilled to see everyone here!!! JUST DID IT!!
Day/Level: D1L1
Breaks: 0
Starting weight: 175 lbs (5'5)
I gotta say, I did this AFTER I did another workout video!!
First I did 'The Firm: Dance Express" and burned 250 cals in 25 mins according to HRM
Then I did the 30 day shred and also burned 250 cals according to HRM (including stretching)
I think the first workout video really warmed up before the shred. I don't want to injure myself and Jillian doesn't give too much of a warm up.
For those you about to do it: Circuit 1 is the hardest, but it is all downhill from there (in my opinion).
I used 2 lb weights because I didn't want to get discouraged and I wanted to make sure I could do it. Circuit 1, 2lb weights killed me!! I probably will use 3 lb weights for the other circuits. But nothing higher (for now)
I feel fantastic right now
Can't wait to see how you all do!!! And see you again on here tomorrow!0 -
today is my day 4, i love it.i did it first thing this morning. i've lost a pound in 4 days and 2 inches all around ...i'm happy0
-
Ok, I just did and am still alive!!!
Day 1/Level 1
Breaks: two in first cardio section, none after that! Yay!
CW: 217 (according to old scales - new scales bought this week are LYING!! lol)
I actually really enjoyed this! It was really hard but I surprised myself by only stopping twice in the first cardio section (those bl**dy jumping jacks!). Sweated buckets and face like a beetroot!! We'll see if I can move tomorrow though ...
I agree - the first circuit is definitely the hardest!0 -
how do you record it in the exercise section?0
-
You can record it in cardiovascular, search "circuit training"0
-
I'm gonna start today too... I've been doing it but not everyday (didn't know I had to).
You log it as circuit training in the cardio section....
Not sure how much I weigh at the moment, I promised my hubby I wouldn't weigh-in until after my birthday (6/5) so I would stop getting discouraged when the scale doesn't move like I want it to.
Good luck everyone, I certainly need the motivation.... I have a mini goal of 60+ lbs. to loose but I would to ultimately loose all of it, about 90+ lbs.
Feel free to add me anyone, if you are in the same boat as me0 -
I started 5/25 but took yesterday off, so I will restart today too! So sore. So sore.0
-
Did the 1st workout. Did fine in all of it except for the 1st round. I suck at pushups! I also only have 6.6 lb weights so that hindered my side quat arm lift things. too heavy.
all in all, good, quick workout, but I don't feel like it's enough for the day. going to go for a run now0 -
Day 1/ Level 1
Breaks- 1
CW- 143lbs, 5'5"
3lb weights was a good start but those raises with the side lunge were killing me! I HATE jumping rope way worse than jumping jacks, what a burn!
I just want to say that if it hadn't been for this thread I would have caved to errands I could have run on my lunch break instead getting in my 30DS. Thank you! :flowerforyou:0 -
D1L1
Breaks- 1
CW- 230lbs/5'7
I did it while my daughters were napping and boy was I cursing Jillian LOL.. but now that I am done I feel GREAT!! I do agree that the first circuit is definally the hardest ... I had to take a little break while doing the skipping rope lol I just had a baby 5 weeks ago and my belly jiggles so bad, I think I need a belly bra:laugh: Heres to keeping this up and getting rid of the pooch!0 -
Can I join as well?
I'm so glad I found this post. I recently bought Jillian's 30 Day Shred and started it this morning.
D1L1
Breaks-1
Starting Weight:137.50 -
I did it this morning and was surprised at how it really worked your body in just 20 minutes. I'll be back doing it again tomorrow!0
-
D2L1 - 2 breaks in first cardio
Surprisingly I wasn't too sore this morning so decided to do day 2 early. Felt the same as yesterday - exhausted! Enjoyed it though!0 -
Just finished Day 2 level 1, only took 1 break (bicycle sit ups at the end kill me) same as yesterday.
I really ached this morning!!0 -
I did D1L1 last night and about to do D2 here in a minute. I'm going away tonight so I won't be able to do it later. I think I took one break
My weight yesterday morning was 167 (5'6"). I would really love to lose 20 lbs. I also completed C25k not that long ago and I'm running 2-3 days per week.0 -
D2L1 this morning.
Breaks- 1
A little sore, but that just means it's working. It did go by faster the second day, probably because I knew what to expect.0 -
I woke up and was so excited to see you guys pulling through with Day 2. Getting my workout in in 20!0
-
Day 2/Level1
Breaks:0
Damn circuit 1 is so hard!! But you get through it. Those squat and overhead dumbell presses KILL my shoulders. And then later on with the side lunges you do even MORE shoulders. I am not trying to build shoulders here. I am going to modify the side lunge move and do a side lunge/tricep press move instead.0 -
I brought the DVD a couple of weeks ago and have done it a few times but haven't been doing it everyday so I think I need to join as I have 30 days until my holiday now!! Count me in!0

Wasn't able to start today. Need to get those hand weights ASAP.0
