    20 minutes of circuit training should do it.

    Eat within your macros, eat back your exercise cals, good luck, be strong.

    Having luke warm water + 1 tsp fresh honey + half lemon in the mornings in empty stomach for 2 to 3 months helps.
    See link below for more details:

    Most peeps log it as circuit training but I log mine as aerobics general, as I like to underestimate the cals burnt on MFP just in case theyre not right as I eat all my exercise cals back and dont want to overeat uneccessarily. The only truly accurate way to record them is if you got yourself a Heart Rate Monitor.

    Good luck with your shredding :D but remember its not supposed to be done 30 days in a row, so have a day off maybe once or twice a week and let your muscles rest/heal and you are more likely to complete it x

    Circuit training, and it's 26 mins from the beginning of the warmups to the last stretch.

    Hi my HRM (Polar FT7), records it as 225 Calories for the length of exercise including cool down. Hope that helps

    As each persons cal burn would be diferent depending on height/weight, how does this compare with the figure that MFP says it'd be for you if you logged it as circuit training? I'm interested to know if theres much difference... thanx
