I started this last week and it is a killer. Not sure how many calories it burns in those 20 minutes, does anybody know?
WHen I used my HRM level two for me ranges from about 120-145. Depending on how hard I work.0 -
I am going out and buying this today! Ive heard so many good things about it so I cant wait to start!!0

Month 2...
Beginning at level 2....I did level 1 for a month mixed with other workouts.
LEVEL 2, day 2...OMG....this is a killer change and more body weight incorporated...
My suggestion...
Start with 5 lb weights and if its easy, go to 8 or 10lb. Lift heavy to result in loss of inches and tone. If you start a set and can do five reps with 10lb and back down to 8....its ok...dig deep....you can do this.
Rest rest rest...your body must recover. ITS VERY IMPORTANT to allow healing and recovery. Injury is too common and it takes more than a day to heal.
Finish with a protien shake within 30 min....VERY IMPORTANT!
thus far...9.75" lost
MEASURE MEASURE MEASURE, and do not weigh if you can!
Really stretch well at the end...
Push through it...if you have to stop...keep moving in place...do not stop...
MOST OF ALL....GET A HRM...the numbers in here are off. Remember this is cardio combined with strength, and the calorie burn may be lower, but you will burn calories long after this workout, as with cardio, you will not.
WE GOT THIS LADIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Started about a week and a half ago!! I admit I don't do it everyday but have been going to the gym to take strength training type classes. I feel like i have noticed a difference..
What is the importance of the protein shake??0 -

Hey y'all -- this is my first day on Fitness Pal, and I'm actually joining to help me stay motivated. I'm on day 6 of the Shred, and unfortunately I have GAINED three pounds.
I know it's probably just water weight, but has anyone else had a similar experience?
I can feel myself getting more stamina, and I know that as bad as this is kicking my butt it has to be doing some good. It's just a bummer that the pants I've just started to fit back into are back in the drawer.0 -
Alright,
confession time. :indifferent:
I started the 30day shred, :happy:
made it to day 8. :grumble:
I got so bored... :yawn: :sad:
but the worst part of me stopping was, I stopped something that was working. :mad:
But! I want to jump back on this wagon,
and mix it up this time
So good luck everyone!0 -
i started with 7lbs ... that seriously killed me sooo now im at 5 lbs.. i still cant do the side lungs with shoulder raises :$0

I'm on day 6 now and I feel exactly the same! I'm pretty sure it's working, and my body is feeling better, but for some reason, I'm sitting on the sofa posting about it, when I know I haven't got much time left before I need to get ready and go to work...
Is anyone else having trouble getting bored with this, and how do you keep motivated? As it's only day 6 today I don't want to put myself off by measuring too early. Any tips?

To stay motivated I bought a dress a size too small for me & try it on all the time, it didn't zip up when I bought it.....Now it does I just need to lose weight around my tummy so it isn't so 'clingy' but the shred has obv helped me lose some inches if the dress now zips up. I have also been on a countdown since day 1 to do a half way measure, I too didnt want to measure too soon as I knew I would bail out if I didn't see results. Tomorrow is my half way point (day 15) so I will take some measurements.
Just keep telling yourself you put your body through pain for the first 3 days, still pushed through & got to day 6 so if you quit the pain was for nothing, it all pays off in the end. Only 4 more days (1hr 20 mins or exercise) to go until you are upto level 2. You can do this0 -
I'm starting my 30 day Shred today! I really hope it works. Heard lots of good reviews about it so far0

After the way my back and thighs were yesterday I was shocked how easily I crawled out of bed this morning. Back is fine and thighs are only a bit sore. My shoulders are a whole other story sadly! Time to go do battle with Jillian and see how far I get before I my arms give up (and I'm determined to get to the end!).0

Happy shredding!!0 -
I started this about 10 days ago, but I pulled an tummy muscle and its taking a while to heal. I feel ready to start again but this time im making sure I have a mat as I dont think working out on a hard floor is good for me.
Also collecting some weights from argos tonight.
I know this might have already been asked but how are people recording 30ds in their exercise diary? I cannot figure out how to do it.
Im also going to be going to the gym 2-3 times a week to do extra weights, im already seeing results from this so dont want to give it us.
Thanks0 -

MFP don't have the 30 Day Shred in their database>0 -
I started it yesterday and my god I can see why you can lose 20lbs in 30 days!!! KILLER!!!
But will be so worth it Keep up the good work, peeps!0 -
hye, thanks Cheeky, imma do that, although I failed to get my lard *kitten* up this morning to do it, tomorrow back on it. Still on level one at the moment, tryna keep up. Large breasts + jumping jacks = x_x (can't watch face) LOL
I cuss Jillian every single time I have to do the jumping jacks. She obviously has no idea what it is like to be big up top trying to do those hideous exercises. Grrrr..... I do them, but I don't like it!!!0
