30 Day Shred

Jillian is giving me a waist back.....The first time I tried it I nearly died. :0) Just try it. Don't get discouraged. Do what you can. Everyday I saw improvements in my endurance. I didn't know how cardiovascularly challenged I was. ;0) I did my first time thru a few months ago and started a 2nd time before Christmas. I will be continuing on today. I think those who do it 30 days in a row get the best results but I couldn't get it worked in everyday and still went down a pant size with little weight change. Take measurements before you start so you can see your progress that is a great confidence booster!

i have had it for a while now. its HARD! i have started and stopped it many times i really need to get motivated and do it every day for the full 30 days because i will litarlly start and within a few days i stop! time for me to just PUSH threw it!!! Its very hard but im sure if you stick with it you will see results! i have seen a bunch of pics on here with amazing results!

just got it...hurray!

I bought some Jillian DVD's for myself for Christmas too. I did 6 Week 6 Pack on Saturday and Blast Fat, Boost Metabolism on Sunday. I could barely walk Monday but it was good. 30 Day Shred was supposed to be here Friday but it still hasn't arrived. I haven't decided if I'm going to stick with just one or alternate the three of them so I don't get bored. Feel free to add me if you want!

i just bought it today too! add me so we can share our results Im pretty excited!

I am on level 2 day 3, but have not done it everyday. I take a day off every 3-4 days. I think that keeps me from getting burnt out. The first day I did the video I couldn't walk for 2 days after so take it easy the first couple days. Even though you may be able to do each move to the full extent take it easy until you see how your body reacts. In the end I didn't work out for 4 days and just started over but took it easy. I had completed the Couch to 5k running program right before I started this and thought my legs were in good shape......did the squats and lunges with the video and found out they weren't. Well actually it's just different muscles and was like I had never used them before. I also only used 3 lb weights until I felt the arm/leg combo was too easy then moved up to 5 lb. Now in level 2 I went back down to 3 lb since they are different moves. It is a great workout. Just when you are ready to be done you move on to the next level and get a fresh start.

I feel things tightening up from 30DS, but most of my weight loss happened with C25K since that was the first workout I did in conjunction with MFP.

Good luck to you!!!!

I have had it for a while..and couldnt for the life of me get off level 1. I am now on Level 3.. (did only 5 or so days of level 2) . I do it about 3 times a week..cause the other days I do straight weight training..

I think its more the commitment rather than doing it continuously..cause if you are doing other things inbetween..results are bound to happen

I'm starting tonight! I have heard nothing but great things

Yay! Glad to hear it works for people! I have to go out of state for work for 35 days coming up next month, seeing how I will have a lot of spare time on my hands when work is done each day I am really looking forward to doing it! My sister got me the dvd as a Christmas present! :happy:

I finished last week and had great results. I posted the full results in a thread where I was checking in with a group of other women doing it - it has 11/14/11 in the title. Anyway, I lost 0.5" off my calves, over 1" off my thighs, 2" off my butt/hips, 2" off my belly at the navel, and more. It took me 37 days to complete the 30 workouts (had to take a couple of breaks). It was REALLY hard when I started, but when it started getting easier I started doing the levels twice in a row most days. Love the workouts and results so much I am now the proud owner of 5 more Jillian Michaels DVDs. LOL
