What is the 30 day shred everyone keeps posting about?!

It's a workout DVD by Jillian Michaels. I just got it this week and it's hard but I definitely recommend it. It's nice because all you need are hand weights and a floor mat if you're not working out of carpeted floor.

It's an exercise DVD that comes in different levels I think. I don't know how many calories you'd burn on them or whether your meant to do them all in one go.. I'm sure someone else will come and tell you.

10 days level one
10 days level two
10 days level three

Supposed to do all 30 days in a row, no breaks. It's designed to sculpt your body, not lose weight, but it combined with other exercise and calorie counting is supposed to be excellent! I only barely managed day 3 today (level 1) after one day off (naughty me, Jillian would be in mah face!), but am seeing improvements in stamina already.

Take measurements before you start and then after the 30 days and some people have seen huge total inch loss!

After reading several posts from other people who have used it, apparently if you weigh 154lbs, you will burn 180 - 190 cals doing the easy version - that is what I have been basing my exercise cals for this workout on. If you put into the system circuit training (which this is effectively), 20mins is about 190cals, so better to be safe than sorry, unless you have en effective heart rate monitor.

I recommend this.
