Re: I just did the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred
Posted by carolinep24
Is it something I have to do at home or can I watch it and do the exercises AT the gym?
can you give me some examples as to what she does?
she is my hero.
Although you can take select parts of the workout and apply it to the gym, I think it's best to do at home.
It's 22 minutes from start to finish.
The workout is broken up into 3 parts: Cardio, strength training and followed by a minute of abs.
I feel like I memorized it in my sleep!! Lol.
You start with simple arm warmups for 1 minute (windmill type exercise, no weights).
Then into cardio...things like jumping jacks, arm punches, butt kicks (looks like you are kicking your own azz, lol), pretend jump rope.
Strength training follows...bicep curl mixed with side lunges. She points out that the best way to burn fat is to incorporate a bunch of small muscle groups along with large which makes sense.
Other strengh training things are push ups, shoulder exercises etc..
Then simple ab work for a minute (reverse crunches, butterfly crunches etc...).
I wanted to write more but my son is now up from his brief nap crying again, lol.
The soreness is pretty much gone but I hurt my left shoulder doing pushups today...not good...be careful with pushing yourself too too hard with those, I tried to go lower than normal and really hurt something. I hope i can do them tomorrow!!

Re: I just did the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred
I ordered mine last night! Can't wait for it to come in!
I bought a Yoga Mat and a Beginner Pilates Mat DVD and I am motivated to do that but I am having trouble not feeling like I am doing anything with Yoga/Pilates.
I can't wait to feel the "burn"!

Re: I just did the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred
I did it last night for the 3rd time, I can definitely notice a difference in my endurance and now afterwards I can actually walk  Still not ready for level 2 though.

Re: I just did the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred
DH and I did it last night for the first time. I absolutely love it. I can definitely feel the burn. It was a little difficult but I am sure everything will get easier every time we do it.
I started with 2 pound weights and thank goodness I did, my arms were burning.

Got mine from amazon with the free Fitness mag as well. Did the workout level 1 for the first time today and enjoyed it. I love her little comments to keep up motivation. Jillian cracks me up!

yeeaaa I'm excited a professional has said this...I do this all the time but really to save time more than anything. Glad it burns more fat!
I can't wait to try this DVD!

Re: 30 day shred thread!
So I did the level 2 yesterday.
It was not as bad as what I thought. Some of the "plank" moves were tough, but not much worse than level 1 (i expected torture from reading reviews on other websites!).
I am a tiny bit discouraged about something...
I had lost around 4 pounds last week (doing WW and this video) but I decided to weigh myself this am and gained a half pound.
And I DON'T think its muscle gain....I mean I have a considerable amount of fat on my body to lose, and to gain weight was frustrating. But i won't be a psycho about it, i'll continue on and hopefully have a loss when i weigh myself this sat.

Re: 30 day shred thread!
I did it for the second day in a row last night and boy am I feeling it. I am gonna push myself to do it tonight too.
So far the scale is going down but I gained for eating like a pig over the weekend. So hopefully I can get down to last Friday's WW weight or even lose a little.

Re: 30 day shred thread!
okay, I've never seen the biggest loser so I've never heard of this chick but I am intrigued now. Do they only sell it on-line? I was going to try at WalMart or Target. I'm anxious to see what results I get. I've been working out pretty much my whole life but after baby #2 somethings gotta give to get back to where I was.
Thanks for the tip

Re: 30 day shred thread!
I did Day 3 last night and it got a lot easier. My body was still burning but I was able to get through a lot more of it. I can't wait to start seeing results.

Re: 30 day shred thread!
How much weight are you supposed to lose in the 30 days if you follow the program?

Re: 30 day shred thread!
I moved on to level 2 last night. Those plank jacks and other plank jumping things are impossible! I did like 3 and had to move onto the modified move

You have the potential to lose 20 pounds BUT i believe that would happen if you have a really significant amount to lose combined with the diet plan.
For me, I know I am not going to lose 20. I had 15 total to lose, I am down 5 in 2 weeks (as well as doing WW with it).
However I can say this....my jeans are baggy, I feel like my thighs and arms are slimmer. I wish I had measured myself before!!
