Holy spawn of Satan




I finally jumped on the bandwagon with the spawn of Satan at the steering wheel. Yesterday I finally started day 1 of the "The Shred".

I bought it a couple of weeks ago and just now got around to getting weights to go with it. So I did my normal run on the treadmill, and decided that it was as good a day as any to get my butt completely worked by Jillian.

Holy mother- this was the hardest workout I have ever had. Now, I am not super in shape and have never been much for working out so this may not mean much to those of you who live in the gym...but seriously Jillian...she ain't messing around my friends.

She was yelling at me..I was yelling back. It. Was. Not. Pretty.

And I may have almost died.

I am sore all over and am identifying muscles I didn't know existed. I don't know how in the heck she expects me to do this for the next 29 days. Sweet lord help me.

Have any of you survived the 30 Day Shred? If so give me positive encouragment!! I need it!

Ok, since you have started the Shred, then I think I should start it too. I've been postponing it bc I don't like to hurt or sweat. EVER. But we all need to be bikini ready!!
Jillian is a meanie, but she's got some pretty abs!!!

It's tough, and I definitely yell back, too...but it's worth it! And you will feel better the 2nd day...3rd day...it gets easier - I promise! I am a wimp. Take my word for it. :)

I haven't successfully finished the whole 30 days in a row yet, but she does pack a mean workout. Think of that hottie end result while she's making you do those darn jumping jacks and jump ropes..
