What kind of results are you getting from the 30 Day Shred?

Options
Just started today and loved it...well mostly loved that I got thru it, lol! Just curious as to what others results are...how often you do it, daily, every other day, etc. What do you think of it?

    I personally lost 4 inches in 10 days. I didn't really keep up with the measurements after that, that was enough to keep me going. LOL Most people don't lose a ton of weight on it (maybe b/c it's building muscle???) but the inches usually show what you're doing. :) Keep at it and you will see results.

    I did 30DS every day, minus a two week break because I fell off a porch and hurt my ankles. :P

    Results:

    Weight: same

    Waist :3 inches smaller

    Bust : 2 inches smaller

    Hips : 2 inches smaller

    Bicep : .5 inches larger

    Thighs : No change (although definite change from fat to muscle!)

    Now I'm nearly two weeks into Ripped.... I'll probably try to do measurements this weekend. :-P

    Also down from size 14 to size 11 pants since I started. :-) Stick with it!

    I loved the 30DS and found it was a great thing to use to kick myself in gear with my new workout plan. I did it 6 days a week (I've made Sundays my mandatory rest day) and tried incorporating an extra burn via riding my horse or putting some km on my stationary bike at least 4 times a week. Athough I didn't get very extreme results like some, I love what it did for me.

    Here is my blog post showing my results along with before/after photos.

    I'm now just finishing up Week/Level 3 of Ripped in 30 (one week left!) and the inches continue to melt away (have lost 9.7 inches since starting with the 30DS) and am so looking forward to add another photo to the ones on that post.

    I am on day 27 and I have lost almost 12 pounds. Level 1 and 3 are better than 2, in my mind. I wish I would have taken measurements.

    I finished it yesterday and i did it 4x/week so it took me longer than 30 days. I lost 10.6lbs and 11.5 inches all over. I def have a love/hate relationship with it, but it is a great workout especially since it's only 20 minutes.

    I am only on day three. Starting weight of 330lbs. I decided to do 2 days and then a rest day, and repeat the pattern. I'm on day three and I feel pretty great. I usually do additional stretches before I put the DVD in because I don't think she has you stretch enough. and I eat something with potassium in it afterwards.

    I love it! I lost about 5 lbs from doing it 5 days per week. I've moved on to Ripped in 30 and Shred it with Weights (the kettlebell workout). It is tough but hang in there. I didn't progress to all of the advanced moves but I definitely saw an increase in strength and endurance.

    day 2 of level 2. I didn't see much change in my body on level one except in my calves and maybe a little in the back of my legs. I did notice that I am stronger and have more energy to workout longer at the gym. My waist didn't go down, which is where I have my issues belly fat. I will keep going and see what happens.

    Thanks for all the replies! I'm going to give it a good try. I've only purchased level 1 for now. Once I master that I'll move up! Yes, I can tell it's going to be a love/hate thing! I just kept telling myself...it's not an hour, it'll be over soon! LOL! Certainly hoping to get strength and endurance out it! Thanks again!

    Wow! tistal... that's fantastic! Good for you! Thanks for sharing! I have to say that my body is feeling it hours after! Was debating on maybe not doing it everyday but, I think I'm going to at least try!
