30 Day Shred :)

[helenmcloughlin92]

Just finished day 1 of level 2... Bloody hell I wasn't expecting it to be that hard! I am absolutely shattered now I keep underestimating exactly what they want me to do when I watch through the level at the start, and then somehow it's a massive shock when it's actually really hard... Definitely need to get myself out of that mentality.

At least now I know what level 2 is like, so I can prepare myself for it again tomorrow! Onwards and upwards

(A very tired) Helen xx

I want to give this a go how do you maintain after 30 days?

Just about to do day 2, I'd forgotten how much it makes you ache my legs felt like lead weights when I went for my run earlier!

Feels like ages since I've been on here!!! I got to day seven then had quite a few days off so felt like I cheated!!!! I've started again and am on level 1 day 3 tomorrow. Took some before pictures this time!!!

Thats good, it'll keep you motivated. Watch a couple of youtube videos on people who've done it, it's actually very motivating

I've decided to start it after my last exam on August the 15th.

Are you noticing a massive difference from day 1? Both in fitness, weight loss and of body shape?

 

[Laurenypop]

Oh God...in bucket loads! I can't even begin to describe just how many inches I've lost, how much stamina I've gained, my balance is amazing, I mean I did a few stretches from the Wii Fit program and kept getting 5 stars!! I've never had such good balance playing that game!

No looking back now, it's been worth every ache and pain to come out a different person I kinda have a before photo, it's not very good. Ill be doing the final picture Saturday, eep.

 

[OpalLilyEats]

Aw amazing - that's inspiring! I need to start it and stick at it!

Is it really bad that the reason I'm put off is that I hate washing my hair every day?!

 

[Laurenypop]

Haha no I hear you! I go running then shred, and when I don't get to do both one after the other it means two showers >.< effort! =)

 

[Laurenypop]

You're doing soooo well!! Well done xxx

 

[Laurenypop]

You're doing soooo well!! Well done xxx

Thank you! ^.^ I guess I have to really work up a sweat for these last four workouts and get the most out of them! Today was the first time out of all of the days that I felt like my abdomen was tight doing the crunches. However I'm still flabby so that's not gonna be gone in four days. I guess it's onto another Jillian workout?? :-/

Wow, we'll done for nearly completing the whole thing! After numerous false starts, then managing to fall up my stairs and injuring my knee which prevented me from doing it, I have finally completed 10 days level 1, I had 3 days off but finally made it!! Even though i still cant do a push up I am so bored of it now and looking forward to doing something different. Have also got the ripped in 30 DVD but I refuse to start it until I have completed this, hopefully if I stick to it I'll look half decent in a bikini by the time I go on holiday in September

Well done!!!! You've done so well to keep going in this heat!! What are you going to do now? Just keep working out changing the level?

 

[helenmcloughlin92]

Just completed day 19, and after having 5 days off, that was the hardest I've found the shred in a long while! Last time when I had a 3 day rest I vowed never to do it again because of how hard it was when I got back into it, but jee whizz, this was something else! Haven't got a choice about carrying on uninterrupted this time though - 11 days left to complete, and only 13 days til I go on holiday so time is of the essence!!

Xxx

My hubby is getting me a copy of Jillian's killer abs. I watched the first level on You Tube...looks horrific! Similar to some of the Shred ab workouts though. And plus no cardio which I'm up for! I already run 4 times a week so more than happy to just do the abs now =D will probably start it Wednesday =)

 

[helenmcloughlin92]

It's official... I have now completed level 2 of the shred. So crazy to think there are only 10 workouts left to do until it's finished! Going to watch level 3 in while to get a feel for what it is like... Something tells me this isn't going to be pretty! Xxx
