Wedding Forum - 30 Day Shred.......

I thought rather than clogging up the General thread I'd post a separate one here regarding the DVD that loads of us have been mentioning!! I thought like the MFP thread was such a success maybe we can all come to here and share tips/advice, experiences etc etc. And all moan about it together!

So just done my first 'session'.... holy moly how do any of you get past level 1?! Really?! I know I jokingly said if I didnt come back within the hour to UKB you'd find me collapsed in a heap on the rug.... well I definitely ended up on the rug thats for sure!

It wasn't TOOOOO bad to be honest, I wasn't as strawberry coloured as I used to be after a bit of exercise! But I really did struggle with the Jumping Jacks, Skipping and stuff, I always seem to be out of sync with the instructor?! Is it because I have smaller legs so have to take smaller steps I don't know! Always end up doing a few more than them!
& maybe think I should have used a smaller weight as I have those sets of 3 (all pathetic kg compared to OH's!) but chose the 'heaviest' out the sets!

Just had a nice hot shower and now im sitting here im sure I'll seize up at some point! Oh well, I have to admit a bit more successful than I originally thought but there will be no talk of moving up to Level 2 anytime soon!!

How is everyone else getting on with it? xx

Ah I didn't think of taking a photo! Your a real 30 Day Shredder aint ya, I've seen all the stuff online! TBH I am not expecting those sort of results, as I'm sure those will have gone and done Level 3 for most of it and the food/diet alongside! My OH won't do it as its too 'girly' apparantly haha. I bet he'll try it one day when I'm out and just not admit it!

I'll see how it goes, I'll definitely do it during the week when OH isn't here haha, I go so pink its unreal, no where near as bad as I went before (I used to go brighter than the pink of the UKB post button! And that was after 5-10min light workouts!!)
If I do it during weekdays and rest at weekends then so be it, I'm sure it will do something!
Well for the time being tins of beans and water will do you fine! I already had a mini dumbell set, the cheap ones from Arg0s so just used those, but definitely will use the med or light ones tomorrow!

I did sort of enjoy it especially more than I originally thought I would and yes the hot shower after was amazing, except I just started to run (well speedily move) downstairs to get post and then my legs just kicked in...!! oops...!x

I really wouldnt worry about weight because with these work outs you are building muscle go off your measurements - i do my arms, bust, upper/lower waist, hips and thighs

Is the 30ds by jillian from biggest loser?

Yeah Kimi, its the jillian michaels one, most websites have a deal at the moment and are doing it for £5. Way I see it, we can get two rounds of 30 day shredding in before christmas and be slinky for christmas lol.

Im lucky that hes on a fitness freak regime at the moment, hes training for the royal marines to go in as an officer, so I get a lot of support, especially for the SW meals. Complete nutter my oh :) xx

They'll do for now, I cant see me moving past L1 any time soon so maybe I can just exchange the weights instead!

How long is each session? I know everyone says finding time is an excuse but I set off for work at 6.30 and get home at 19.30 after I have cooled dinner (I'm also the first home) I'm knackered. Would love some kind of miracle cure to tone up :-)

found it x

Please take this to the main weight loss thread now newly stickied
