When should you start 30 day shred ?????

Options
I'm trying to lose overall around 80lbs, ive almost lost 20lbs. so my question is when I should start to use 30 day shred. Would i get better results if i waited until i was 10-15 lbs away from my goal weight or should i start it now? Please let me know what you think.

    There's no need to wait to start the shred. Yes of course it's going to be difficult when you first start it, but it's gets easier as you get stronger.

    I'm getting surgery in a couple weeks and can't exercise for two weeks afterward, so I'm gonna wait until I'm completely healed before starting.

    If you do it while losing weight you are more likely to tighten things up and not have excess skin. At least that is what I am understanding. I will be starting in march because I just started a running program and want to get that under way first.
    Good luck!

    I would start now. There is no reason to wait. It is an excellent workout but my best advice would be to stay on workout 1 until you get really comfortable with it (you could be on it for more than a few weeks). The workouts 2 and 3 definitely get more difficult. Good luck! Great 20 minute workout.

    Just because it's called the 30 day shred doesn't mean you only have to do it for 30 days. Whether you have 100 to lose or 10, it helps with your endurance and helps build lean muscle.

    Start it now as it's a brilliant cardio work out. Then keep doing it until you get to goal lol... Obviously the less overall fat you have the more defined the muscles will appear, but it's a good way to shed the fat in the first place.

    I just started my fitness/weight-loss journey Jan 1st and started the shred on Monday. It is definetely a difficult workout, but I don't see any reason to wait.

    i had about 40 lbs to lose overall (i'm down almost 12) and i started the shred 5 days after i joined MFP. its made a huge difference already. i see it, and so do my coworkers). I still have lots of lbs to lose but im toning up. :)

    i plan to finish the shred (2 days away) then do ripped in thirty, followed by 6 week six pack, then go back to the shred again. that way, i get a few months break so i dont get bored of any one routine.

    ps. im doing these workouts bc i cant afford a gym, or insanity, or p90x...but it's ok bc it's working for me and im losing weight like crazy!!
