30 Day Shred

chelseakopperud

Has anyone done this? I have heard great things about it, so I ordered it today. Anyone have personal experience with it?

I did it for a couple of days, then went on vacation and stopped I'd love to get back into it though! Its a really great work out! I'm sure if I stuck with it better the results would be great; I saw some results after a week!

I did it for a while and had pretty good success with it, aside from the fact that I personally have a really hard time sticking to an exercise routine.  I enjoyed it while it lasted, but I got kind of bored with the repetitiveness after a while.  I did, however, lose about 8 lbs during the period I was using it regularly, and I could definitely tell that my strength and stamina were improving.

I have it and meant to start yesterday, but I woke up with a migraine.  Oops.  Maybe I'll start after work tonight.

Awesome- it is nice to hear from people I "know" that have used it and been successful.

If anyone wants to start it when I get my DVD next week and keep each other accountable let me know!

I will!!

It's excellent!  I'm now doing her ab DVD.  Her yoga workout is a lot less "zen" than I can appreciate.

Awesome!!!!!! I will make sure to let you know when I get it so we can start the same day. Is it an everday thing?

Anyone else??

One of my coworkers did it and she liked it.  She kept complaining about how sore she was from it though so she took some days off of it.

I also want to try it.  It's on sale right now at Best Buy for $8.

I did the 30 day shred for a while and it worked! I lost 7 lbs the first week I was on it, I too went on vacation and when I got back didn't countinue. I just ordered the extreme shred and shed by Jillian michaels last week, I can't wait for it to come!

I've had it for a while now. It's a really good workout...

I haven't ever stuck with it because I also feel like a bull in a china shop doing exercise videos at home...and after a few days I am sooo sore that I don't want to do it anymore.

I may pick it up again though.

Shanee18

I am intrigued...  For those who have already used it before, do you need a lot of floor space?  Our living room has pretty limited space so I want to make sure that I would be able to actually do the DVD if I get it.

I just bought it on Amazon so count me it once it gets mailed to me!

sweetcanadian1979

I have it, need to start it, paid $5 for it at walmart in the $5 bin. Our living room is small with our new sectional so i hope i can make it work. 

chelseakopperud

Awesome! I am so glad others want to do this as well!! I hope we all get ours in the mail asap!!!

Thanks for the input Amber!  I will definitely be ordering this today and starting with you ladies!

All of this! Especially Jillian being annoying! Once you do it for 3ish days I turn her almost completely down and pump up the wokrout jams :)

I completed all 3 levels (for 30 days) about 3 months ago, but my eating habits were way out of wack and I did not see great results. But I would love to try again. I will join this accountability stuff, for sure. I have a pretty good routine going at my gym, but on nights that I am too busy or feel like staying home I will do the shred.

Also, you will be sore for the first few days. Like really sore! but it gets better, so stick with it !

Posted by chelseakopperud[/QUOTE]

You may need a floor mat if you are working out on a hard surface for the ab work and some arm work (laying on your back). When I did it, I had a pretty thick carpet that worked just fine.

As for space, you don't need a ton of space. As long as you have enough room to stand up and spread you legs out and your arms (a jumping jack, more or less) you will be fine.

chelseakopperud

Thanks for the info Alli! I hate being sore, but also love it. I love knowing that what I did really impacted my body!

Pixieliddle23

I've never done it before but I have heard good things!  Count me in for the workout accountability!  I just ordered it from amazon, I would definitely like to be more toned before the wedding!

Carebear62584

I bought it about 2 years ago and planned to do it during the summer.  But then I started working my summer job where I am bartending on my feet for 6-12 hours, carrying ice buckets, cases of wine, etc. so I never opened it.  It's at my beach house though so if I make it there before you all start I may join.

Shanee18

I think that Amazon should give you some sort of referral money from today Chelsea!    Haha.

doeie04

I did it for a while. I enjoyed level one. Level two was kind of easy to me, but it hurt my wrists a lot! There are a lot of planks and such. I can't remember what level three is.

I really like her Bood Metabolism one. It is super hard for me and I sometimes need to take a break or two because of my asthma, but I think it is better than her 30 day.

I agree, her personality and voice are really annoying. I usually mute her. :P
