    I often do 30Ds in the morning and something else at night or Visa versa. Its up to you. Dont think it will do you any harm. x

    Absolutely, if you're feeling physically able to do both, there's no real reason why you shouldn't try.

    As long as you feel like your body can handle it then go for it! The more you work out the better you will feel and the fast the weigh should come off.

    30 day shred. Jillian Michaels DVD.
  • Yeah, if you're up for doing both then do both. But don't overtrain. You're body needs to rest too. It's very important to rest if your doing decent strength training.
  • Add it in one day at a time and see how your body handles it. Take a day off from the tread mile if you need it (especially as you initially add it to being part of your regular routine.
  • Hi , I am on Day 7 of level 2 of 30DS... for a while I did 30DS alone and felt it was not enough ...so I have started doing a bit of Zumba as well whenever time permits. I think if you do some cardio in addition to 30DS you will see faster and better results.

    I think quite a lot of people combine the 30 Day Shred with cardio. I do 30DS in the morning before work then run or gym in the evening with one or two days off the cardio a week (I'm not doing weights at the .

    30 DS (30 Day Shred) is a Jillian Michaels workout DVD. There are 3 levels, each one harder than the last, which you do for 10 days each (or however long you're happy with) before progressing to the next. It's intense but as it's only 20 minutes you can always think that it's nearly over! It's very popular on here and if you want to see why you can serch the forums for the 30DS before and afters!
