The Shred train, that is. Yes, ladies, I am jumping on the bandwagon and starting The 30 Day Shred today. I'm not promising I'll be able to do this 30 straight days, but I'm certainly going to try to do it at least 5 times a week.
Could someone hold me to that?? I need to be accountable! I have been feeling blah lately about my body and need to do something to remedy that. I can't stand going to a gym, nor do I want to pay for one. I have always one who, if working out, likes to get it over quickly. So, 20 minutes a day is perfect for me. I may be regretting those words after Jillian kicks my ass, but I just want to see results! I would like to lose a few pounds and tone up- thunder thighs are my nemesis, and even though I know that I can't change my genetics, I can at least get rid of the jiggle.
So here goes! Any words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated- I'll let y'all know how it works out for me!
good luck . i got an email last week my favorite gym in cola closed (the factory). not that I live there anymore, but in terms of getting in shape, it was the best! this bad economy started getting serious in my book when I can't even go to my favorite work out anymore.
ReplyDeleteStretch before doing the video in addition to the warmup so you don't injury your back like I did
ReplyDeleteShe'll definitely kick your ass...she kicked mine yesterday. I decided to take the day off from Jillian today...seriously its getting worse-it hurts to sit, stand, walk, everything!! I know it'll be worth it though...just gotta hang with it! Good luck:)
ReplyDeleteOh good luck!! I've been trying to get to the gym as much as possible lately and I've been running 5k's, haven't really noticed results yet but I am feeling so much better!! Stick with it for the first few weeks and you'll get through the feeling worse part and end up loving it!!
ReplyDeleteGood for you! I know what you mean about someone holding you accountable, so I'll try to remember to ask from time to time :-) My only recommendation is to be sure you have a mat - this makes a big difference on your knees. It truly does get better after the 4th or 5th day. You can do it!
ReplyDeletegood luck girlie! keep us updated- i'm interested in it as well... everyone seems to be doing it!
ReplyDeleteI've got it sitting on top of my tv but haven't started it yet....I think I might now! Let me know what you think!!!
ReplyDeleteI did this last summer, and only after 20 days I looked HAWT for my beach trip! Too bad I didn't keep it up.
ReplyDeleteI'll definitely help keep you accountable. Post your progress every day!
I read another blog and she started The Shread yesterday. She said she really felt the burn in the middle of the night last night.
ReplyDeleteI tried Jillian once. The warm up killed me.
Good Luck! You can do 20 minutes. My favorite workout is Hip Hop Abs. It is so much fun.
Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI might have to order this, as it seems everyone else has! There must be something to it, right? Apparently it works as long as you really stick to the program- therefore, STICK TO IT, girlie!! I'll expect an update in a week (and then maybe I'll order it if you are liking it!). Good luck tomorrow morning!
ReplyDeleteGood luck!! You can totally do it!! And pls let us know how it goes!!
ReplyDeleteI SO need to jump on this train too!! How did summer already get here?!
Good Luck! I'm on my third day and am so sore but today I felt like I was slowly getting better! She'll totally kick your ass but its only for 20 min and goes by really fast. Def keep us updated!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I've been shredding for awhile and it's really a great workout. I would recommend switching levels slowly :) No need to rush!
ReplyDeletekick some rear- one day and one workout at a time. you're human- progress, not perfection!
ReplyDeletePS- loved the pics in the last post- you have to make sure that the pic of the bride by herself near the top gets framed- great snapshot
kHm
I have the BL's Cardio Jam and it is great- It features Bob and Jillian. Good Luck with the shred.
ReplyDeleteGood luck! Everybody seems to be on the shred train right now. Can't wait to hear all about it!
