How do I log my 30 Day Shred workout? I tried looking it up as "30 Day Shred" and it's not in there..

    Hi. I've been doing the 30 day shred. I'm on day 34...lost 17lbs so far. O.k.....I log it as vigorous effort calisthetics for 15 minutes. It's about 160 calories burned for 20 minutes. BUT I'm pretty sure based on the amount of SWEATING I do that I burn more than that. I take off a few minutes for the less vigorous moments of the workout. I also feel my muscles burning for a half hour afterwards, and am assuming I'm still burning some calories as they come off the workout, but I don't count those. In any case, I am eating a 1200 calorie diet, started eating my exercise calories burned back into my diet last week after a stall in weight loss and have lost 2 lbs in the last 1.5 weeks. Lastly, I also walk 3 miles, 3 times a week at 3.0/mph pace. So far....so good! Good luck to you. Be careful not to overdo some of the advanced moves on Shred. I had to cut back a little (I was ambitious) and my knees starting hurting. NOw that I have finished the 30 days...(2 - 5day workout weeks at each level) I am cycling each day through a different level for 5 days a week. Until I find all the levels easy....I'm sticking with it. 20 min workout with my results gets my vote

    I created my own for it because people have said it burns around 180 calories for the 20-30 minute session.

    I've read on several boards to track it as circuit training and it figures based on your height and weight approximately how many calories you burn.

    I created my own but a lot of people log it as circuit training. I use a heart rate monitor and average calories burned is 225 calories but it all depends on your level of effort.

    Until I get a HRM I log it as 'circuit training'. I'll be curious to see how far off it is once I get a good HRM.

    I also created my own, I use heart rate monitor and always burn between 160 and 210 calories. That'll vary person to person but I think around 180 is a good estimate if you don't have a HRM.

    So if I log it as "circut training" am I putting it under cardio or strength? Sorry to be a pain. And thank you all for your answers and your progress with it! It gives me motivation to do this and really put my all into it..

    I tend to disagree on logging this as circuit training because my mom goes to a gym where she does circuit training on machines. Calisthenics includes the pushups/situps/ and strength training I think are more like what is going on in this video....but the calories burned on the circuit training are a little higher than I what I log. But it's close in any case. Good luck to all.

    I log it under cardio...I sweat like a pig and am out of breath by the end.

    I got the shred yesterday. I made it about 7 minutes. The husband was in there. Today and the rest of the days I'm doing it BEFORE he gets home from work. I cannot stand being watched and the little comments!!! Ughhhhhhhh I am adding the video once a day to my regular routine of walking 30-45 minutes per day and the doing 4 flights of stairs in my building six times per day. I took measurements in case the scale doesn't give me the numbers I want :-)

    I know how you feel about working out with other people around.. I can't do it either.. I'm lucky that my husband will stay in the other room while I'm working out if he's home.. :-) Do you mind if I add you as a friend so we can track our progress together? I'm starting today

    Yep, in the same boat! I do it before my boyfriend gets home if I can. I do go in the bedroom to do it while hes in the living room, but when I was dancing like an idiot on kinect for some exercise he came in and laughed :( I admit I'm uncoordinated but I'd rather he didn't have to witness that!

    And these men are suppose to be support. My boyfriend laughs too but then heck, he's out of shape and he can't dance either! When I do the kinect, I will only do it in front of my daughter. She laughs but not like the boys and if I'm not doing a dance right, she helps me to get close as possible without looking like a complete fool. But it is fun!

    If anyone doing the 30 day shred (even if you're not) and you want to add me as a friend, please feel free. I love having lots of friends to get support and in turn give support.. I love hearing what others are having for results and share my triumphs.. :-)

    I haven't done 30DS in a while, but for me Ripped in 30, which is very similar, burns around 250 according to my HRM. Depends on your weight, height, effort, etc.

    Ive been doing 30 day shred for 2.5 weeks now and i love it. I will not weigh myself because i don't want a number on the scale to discourage me but my jeans i bought last month that were a little snug are now very loose! Stick with it... Its only 20 minutes out of your day :)
