I know I’m a little late on the shred bandwagon…but after reading this yesterday I thought I would give it a try. It is being offered for free on my local cable’s on demand thingy. I’ve been working out 5 days a week- 20-45 minutes a day: jogging, 20 min. strength training, yoga, pilates (a big fat workout cocktail) for the past 13 months (go me). I read all the comments about how you want to die after the first workout and thought “pfft, it can’t be that hard.”

Well, about 16 minutes in, I was cursing at Jillian and telling her that she is short and stubby and I don’t want to look like her anyway. Real mature. Today, my body is aching. This morning, I thought I’d be real tough and jog anyway. In the shower, I swear I heard my shins crying.

Kudos to those of you who made it through. I might try it again tomorrow.

Question: How heavy are the weights that you use? Currently, I am doing the Shred with 5 pound weights. Should I be using more? Generally, when I use free weights, I use 8 or 10 pound dumbells. Any thoughts?

I got this for Christmas after reading about it on your blog and LOVE IT. I’ve been running long distance and doing yoga for a while and it is obvious after two Shreds there are a LOT of muscles I’ve not been exercising. I am so excited to add this to the mix. Thanks again for the suggestion.

You convinced me to buy this DVD. I am full swing into a new lifestyle that will give me a new and better me. I have 100 lbs to lose, and I’ve managed to drop 12 lbs so far!

The DVD came in the mail, from Amazon, and I was excited and totally terrified.

I had been doing a Cardio Bootcamp, Taebo and Yoga. I needed a change. And it was hard to squeeze 45 mins of exercise into my busy life.

This DVD KICKED MY ASS. Whimpering is putting it lightly. My husband and I did lvl 1. And I am so very impressed.

Not being able to walk after only 20 minutes of working out…Oh yes, this is FANTASTIC.

I felt like I was going to throw up and/or die. But it was totally worth it. Cant wait to see myself in 30 days!

I just bought this. I work out cardio 60 minutes 5 days per week, but have hit my limit and don’t see improvement.

I like the idea of the short interval amounts.

I did it yesterday without hand weights (I’m getting those tonight). I’m sore today, but I’m excited to keep working at it.

I’ve just ordered this DVD having double-checked it’ll work on our player in Britain (some US DVD’s dont’). I’m excited but afraid. Very afraid.

Ordered it from Netflix today! I am petrified, as I can’t do pushups to save my life, but I am determined to do it. But yeah, Jillian scares me. And there’s the whole “oh god, is my heart going to explode” thing as well.
