Anyone fancy joining me for a quick 30 day shred before Christmas?

I've never done it before but am feeling pretty bleugh at the moment and could do with a pick-up. I think it will help me to watch what I'm eating a bit in the run-up to Christmas too.

I've no idea if I will actually manage a whole 30 days but probably more likely to if someone else is spurring me on! Anyone up for it?

I started yesterday but won't (I don't think) be able to fit in a workout today because of work. I'm aiming for 5/7 days per week!

I went straight in at 2kg busy, but my whole body was very sore between days 2 and 5! Your body does toughen up quite quickly though

I think I had 1kg weights when I first started, but I did get a set of three different weights so I could move up/down easily.

Ah great! A few of us starting today then!

I'm off to buy some hand weights this morning as I don't have any. What weight would people recommend for a first timer?

Count me in! I've been meaning to start every week since school went back Blush. I used to do it as soon as I got back from the school run, but since the weather got colder (and I got my new coffee machine ) I have replaced the 9.30 excerise slot with a 9.30 am latte BlushBlush
My jeans are definitely feeling smaller for it!
Getting back on track tomorrow morning

Ooh I've been thinking about shredding again - I have a proper belly apron going on which I've never had before Sad so I need to do something!

I'm planning on starting this tomorrow.

Hi, I'm not planning on doing a full run-through of 30DS but definitely trying to get back onto the Jillian train! I have loads of her DVDs and like to mix and match them... trying to get back into the habit of doing something on most days, as well as playing with my new weighted hula hoop, to feel a bit better about myself before Xmas!

There is something good about a structured simple programme like 30DS, and I think it does help you feel much fitter in a relatively short space of time, keep me posted with how you get on!
