30 Day Shred Users

Has anyone done the full 30 days?
I never can stick with a workout for more than 2 weeks- tops.
In my entire life I have never worked out consistently for more than 2 weeks.

SOOOO- I had done this workout a few times in the past. It really was a great workout and I loved it
But of course- I didn't stick with it because of my laziness.

Anyway- for those who are consistent with it- can you tell me about your results.?
Did you lose pounds? Inches? Dress sizes? Etc...

I'm just curious because I'm thinking of starting it up again....

No way. The most I've ever done it is 4 days in a row. If I'm going to work out 7 days a week (which is not particularly healthy, according to my trainer and various other things I've read) I would need some variety. I'll alternate the Shred with Bob's weight loss yoga tape (LOVE it!) or go running.

I personally don't see how 25 minutes of anything (even as tough as this DVD is) is enough to change your body in a major way.

By the way - if you're just starting, I found that the second workout is more enjoyable than the first, and if you follow Anita, it's even easier than the first (no pushups!).

Yeah I don't think you can do it for 30 days in a row.
The first time I did it- I couldn't work out again for a full 72 hours- that is how sore I was. I couldn't even get on and off the toilet without major pain! Much less do it again the next day.
I try to do it a few days a week and do other things with it.

And you are right- that first workout annoys the cr@p out of me- that is probably why I can never stick with this DVD. There are times that I would shut the sound off and play my Ipod in the background- to drown out Jillian's voice...

I do it maybe once or twice a week, and I always do two workouts in row....either level 1 and 2, or 2 and 3. Its tough when you first start, but after 30 days I'd imagine it wouldnt be as much of a challenge as your body gets used to the workout. I'd never be able to stick with it for 30 days straight though...if only because she annoyes the cr@p out of me also.

Re: 30 Day Shred Users

I only started this DVD a couple of weeks ago and I also work out at a gym, so I've been doing it 2-3 times a week. I'm still on Level 1 (tried Level 2 the other day and I am clearly not ready for it yet!) and I find it is SUCH a great workout! I sweat just as much, if not more, as when I go jogging. I really don't think anyone could do this workout for 30 days in a row... it's pretty tough. Plus you need to give your muscles a rest. On the days I don't do the DVD, I make sure I get my cardio in... either a class at the gym or the elliptical.

agree, after a while listening to the narration can be annoying, so I just mute the TV and turn on a good radio station!

Oh it's definitely a great workout. Really effective for only 20 minutes.
I am starting to think maybe it wasn't meant to be done 30 days in a row- but for a TOTAL of 30 days to see results- but maybe over 2 months- with days to rest in between kwim?

Re: 30 Day Shred Users

My only problem with the workout was I felt there was not enough ab work. Other than that, it was kick azz. I just hate working out at home, so I haven't done it in a while.
