30 Day Shred

Anyone want to join me?
Yes I know it’s an oldie but I did it about 15 years ago and it was really effective.
I’ve just done day one and the weights and abs stuff weren’t too bad but the cardio nearly killed me, I’m more unfit than I realised.

What a blast from the past! I also did this many, many times about 15 years ago & had abs. I miss them. 😭

I do want a challenge for July so may start this tomorrow. Wish I still had the dvd as I've never been able to find it fully online.

The link worked for me but are level 2 and 3 available too?

Edited

All 3 are on dailymotion for free ♥️
WELL DONE EVERYONE YOU GOT THIS! Channeling my inner Jillian 🤣

Nearly forgot to check in (and this daily check in is keeping my going.) Day 8 completed, it was a sweaty glowy one! Two more days to go and then a level 2-whoop!

FloofyBird · 30/06/2025 21:32

I completed day three today. I did thurs yesterday and today, mainly because it will be way too hot to contemplate tomorrow, plus I didn't feel the doms from thurs until Sat, so I figured if I should do two days in a row before Sundays doms hits haha!

Careerdecisions · 29/06/2025 21:16

Level 1 day 7 completed. I can feel myself pushing harder so hopefully that means progress.

REDB99 · 29/06/2025 20:25

I started last Sunday and have done level 1 5 times, went for a long bike ride today instead of doing the shred. I might do level 2 in the morning! Aiming for 4 of it next week and 1 cycle. I’ve got 2 days a week I can’t do it due to 12 hour days but figure the rest is good for me.

Im watching the thread and going to start very gently. Im so unfit but desperate to build my fitness.

When I first started I just did what I could do, and when she did a move that was too hard I just replaced it with an easier version, because I thought well at least I’m doing something! Then oncw my body got used to it I was then doing the proper move after a few days

I did this years ago. For a whole 5 days lol, but even that started to make a noticeable difference. I've bought the dvd again recently and just done day two (I'm not doing it every day though). Is anyone far enough through to post any results to motivate us?

Massive Jillian fan , she has her own app which is £4.99 a month

all her dvd workouts are in there including shred and lots of new ones , you can also generate your own workouts on there

Disturbia81 · 29/06/2025 15:55

27/30 done, I’m so puffy from the water retention/muscle repair so I can’t wait to finish and let it all woosh off!

NormaMajors1992coat · 28/06/2025 16:00

Ooh I remember the agony of this - I’m going to see if I can find my DVD and start week after next when I’m back from being away. I remember it making a difference to my waist in particular.

Careerdecisions · 28/06/2025 15:15

Level 1 Day 6 done, still finding it very tough but pushing myself a little more each time. I managed 7 full push ups on each repetition today. Looking forward to moving onto level 2 next week once I’ve completed day 10.

I did this years ago and still have the DVD but it went for my knees and I had to stop. Any tips?

I didn't do Level 2, apart from once (when I discovered it's knee wrecking properties). So I did 10 days L1, 1 day L2, tried L3 then alternated that and L1 until the 30 days were up. Not strictly correct, but worked for me (and my knees).

For me it’s decent trainers.. I did it in naff shoes the first time round and my knees were killing, I’ve not had any trouble since getting some bouncy footwear!

I've bought the DVD so will join you all when it arrives x

Careerdecisions · 27/06/2025 20:24

A rather late entry today but level 1 day 5 completed. I had a really busy day and almost convinced myself to take a rest day but decided if I could find the time I really should make the effort and pleased I did now.

I’m still rubbish with the anterior raises but I managed 5 full press ups in each round and could stretch a bit further at the end too so progress being made.

Iwillclasptheeagain · 27/06/2025 14:28

It's online here too. I have the dvd but don't know where it has got to.

Thank you. This is much needed motivation

No worries, keep at it ♥️ If I’d known how easy it was to change shape I’d have done it years ago.. I thought people had to spend hours in the gym every day and it bores me to tears. But 25 mins of my day I can spare, especially for a big pay off!

I’m on day 26 of this round and can’t believe how much my figure has changed! And so quickly. My spare tire has gone, thighs trimmed, just everything

Day three of doing it properly completed. The tummy jiggle is upsetting but a good reason to keep at it

I do every other day, because I run 5k on alternate days. Done 4-5 months of level 1 because I was scared of level 2. Just done third day of level 2 and I was right to be scared. All those plank jumpy things are killing me.
