  • If you finished 30 days of this, you are probably one of the few that can stick it out for 60 days. I suggest 60 days because I did it and results were great after 60.
  • It depends on how fast you want to loose weight if that is your goal. Your calories SEEM high to me for what you are doing. I think your weight loss will slow down eating that many calories. I think you have to take into consideration whether or not you can maintain that workout as a lifestyle if the chance of gaining back…
  • It takes about 60 days on the 30 day shred to get the really good results. Don't give up. Day nine is very early in the program. You have to focus on a life change, getting healthy, building muscle and not getting stuck on the quick weight loss. It always slows down as you loose 20, 30, 40. I know its fustratimg to be…
  • Akilia, I did it for 60 days last October. I lost 38 lbs, and muscle tone started to look great. After 30 days, you will loose weight if you eat right. I mean if your goal is to loose weight. You will get other benefits too. The harder you work, the better your muscles will look. My mental state and will power increased…
  • Also, you asked if it is the right program for you to get toned. I think it is. You have already lost 30 lbs if I am converting correctly. After you get your fat off, start lifting heavier and pushing harder through the workouts. That is when you will see great results, but give it the time it needs.
  • Last October I did the 30 day shred for 60 days. I restricted my calories between 1200 and 1800 mainly sticking to 1200 and non processed foods. This was after being sedentary at 203 pounds. I also did a stretching routine 7 days a week and tried not to take more than one rest day a week. It was difficult at first, but it…
  • JM has a "beginners shred" DVD which my friend did. She said it is less impact. If the cardio is the portion giving you problems, change it to a different cardio that doesn't involve jumping like getting on on exercise bike. If your knees still hurt then, it may be the lunges. Concentrate on form and weight instead of…
  • I think after 40, we need to stop all the cardio and eating processed foods, and replace that with greener foods and HIIT ifwe are going to be successful and keep it off. I think women diet too much and workout incorrectly. I think weight training is the key.
  • Start weight training
  • I never paid a lot of attention to abs until once I committed to an exercise program and lost 40 lbs. I went from a huge gut at 203 to starting to develop them. That's when abs became a turn on to me because I saw all the hard work they took. .That is the turn on.
  • If you are not working, or may be if you are and you can do both, totally immerse yorself in YOURSELF. For me, while I was in between jobs, this meant thinking about health and fitness every moment of the day for three months. I put on my workout clothes first thing in the morning and wore them all day so that I was ready…
  • Most likely through the while shred, you will need an assortment of weights because each exercise works a different set of muscles. I could only use one pound weights and still maintain good form with front shoulder raises and side lunges, but can use ten pounds on chest press. I think wen tend to overestimate how much…
  • A month ago when I started giving plasma at 203 lbs, it took 45 minutes to collect it. Now, I am doing Jillian michaels 30 day shred and eating clean. At 198 lbs, last time it only took 29 minutes to collect it.
  • Eat clean and get on Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred. Do it religiously for at least two months and you will see a huge difference.
  • From my experience, eating clean and staying within a 1200 calorie goal the majority of the days, it took me 60 days of doing the 30 Day Shred with no more than one rest day a week to lose about 30 lbs.
  • The 30 Day Shred will totally change your body for the better! I did it for 60 days, and it changedy life!! Stick with it and you will she how worth it it is.
  • About 200 calories per every 20 minutes, but Google the question and then look under image results. You will find the equation used to figure it more accurately for your weight.
  • 30DS is better of you are over 160 lbs. I did the 30 DS for 60 days and lost about 38 lbs. I wanted to change so I tried RI30. It was too hard at that weight and derailed me from exercise.
  • Last October I started by first 30 Day Shred. After I finished, I immediately restarted and completed it a second time. The second time I did each level for seven days, and then each level for three days. I did this to make it seem like it went faster. I lost 40 lbs. I started with non processed foods, and learned how to…
  • 1.2 shredded! It feels good to have my routine back and be eating well again. I dropped 4.5 lbs yesterday from just eating right and replacing the junk in my digestive system with green smoothies.
  • 1.1 Shredded! I'm very happy to acknowledge that. This is my third round of 30DS since November 2015. Doing thirty days of the shred after having just finishined a 30 DS isn't that bad, but if you take a long hiatus between rounds, believe me, it is like starting over completely. Not as easy as you would think! Back to…
  • If you Google it and then go to images, you will find a formula for it. It depends on your weight, but I burn about 200 cal. Don't over estimate it.
  • My name is Chandra. I am 43, 5'4"" and 176 lbs. I just gained back ten pound and lost all my momentum after a month of eating processed foods and slacking on my workouts. This comes after doing 60 days of 30 Day Shred, eating mostly green smoothies with protein powder and lean protein, and losing 40 lbs. My demise was a…
  • You are completely right about the squat form. One trick I use to make sure I am really squatting when I do the move is to put a chair behind me or use the edge of the bed to pretend to sit. It ensures that my squats are consistently deep and going backwards instead of forward over the knees.
  • 56/60 shredded! One more day of level two, and I won't have to see it again for a long time. I really just wanna finish the last three days of level three soon before I'm completely burned out. The problem is standing for seven hours at work, and then trying to exercise afterwards. That is a real challenge to have to…
  • 55/60 Shredded! I'm sooooooo exhausted. You might think that once you've done this program for this many days that you would really fly through it by now. You might if you don't increase your weights, but increasing weight is really challenging.
  • Well, here I am again looking at the end of the 30DS. I am on day 55/60 of the 30 DS, so, basically, I was able to successfully complete round 2 of this program. Instead of 6 WK 6 Pk Abs, I going to follow this program with JM Ripped in 30 starting on Sun Jan 24th. I'm not sure yet if I will create a new group for that or…
  • 52 days strong right here, and I did it just like you. Hanging in there during the early days, and taking off the weight to improve how you feel and perform. It comes off one lb at a time, while your stamina goes up, Great job! Keep going strong.
  • Between 200-300 depending on what you need. I usually run about 260 for a magic bullet tall container and a half which is about three cups.
  • I haven't used the TDS diet plan and I've lost 30 lbs in 75 days. If you have problems with food, or are addicted to it like I was craving sweets and junk all the time, I suggest getting a protein powder and forget being a slave to cooking those meals all the time. That is a huge distraction when you are trying to eat…
