Jillian michaels 30 day shred - day twenty-two
I’m a bit jet lagged today and not back in the swing of daily life. Having a hard time. But I did get my work out in hoping it would make me feel better. I did one of my make up days. Tomorrow is my last make up day and then I start level one. Tara didn’t do the shred while I was gone. I’ve given up on her.

Today is supposed to be my first day on level one but I missed three days on level three plus I didnt film level one so I did level three today. I’ll do two more days of level three at home and then start my next ten day rotation on level one. I decided to also film level one on my phone just to have. I want to work out doing one of the levels everyday even after the 30 day shred is done. We...
Jillian michaels 30 day shred - day nineteen
So I missed day eighteen yesterday however I was snorkeling which is a pod exercise itself so I don’t feel too guilty. Tomorrow we leave Hawaii which I’m super bummed about. I’ve fallen in love with this place and made the decision to move here once I get back from Japan. Now I know what it means by love at first sight!!

I missed day sixteen due to a busy day again. I’m noticing I feel gross now if I’m not working out and I’m in a much better frame of mind when I have worked out.
Jillian micheals 30 day shred - day fifteen
So I missed day fourteen day before yesterday because we were too busy. I did get day fifteen in yesterday but we have another busy day today so it will be hit or miss if I get day sixteen in.

Today I skipped circuit three because my ankle was hurting. I need to start wearing shoes when I am doin the shred. I’m in Maui now. It’s hot but cloudy. I hope it gets nicer out.
Jillian michaels 30 day shred - day twelve
Today my back was really sore after doing the shred yesterday. So far on level three I’ve been doing the modified version because it has been extremely tough for me. I leave for Hawaii tomorrow so I hope I’m not too sore and that I keep up with the shred while I’m away.
Jillian michaels 30 day shred - day eleven
I started level three today because tara and I decided that we actually want to do level one because tara is bored of level two. We decided to do level three as normally planned by the video frat before level one because I it want to film level one after I had already filmed level two and three. Level three is hard. I felt it so much in my shoulders and thighs. I wish there was more abs and...
Jillian michaels 30 day shred - day ten
I got Tara to work out with me again today and she felt much better after we were done. I’m noticing I am feeling the exercises in my shoulders and biceps more and more. I’m not as breathless during the cardio oblique twist things. I also dont have to stop for water half way through. I also find everything easier on hardwood with a matt than on carpet. I’ve stopped trying to do...
Jillian michaels 30 day shred - day nine
Today I was on my own again as Tara had another bad day. Not much to report - same old, same old. Went out with a girlfriend I hadn’t seen in a while and she said I was looking smaller…yay. I’m back down to my starting weight which is good I think. Tomorrow might be tricky to get the shred in again but I’m going to try by best. Oh also I thought it would be important for...
Jillian michaels 30 day shred - day eight
Today was tough to get in but I did it. Tara and I finally got to do a day together again. I’m getting bored with level two and I’m excited and nervous to start level three. I’m regretting skipping level one now. I haven’t lost any weight yet. In fact I’ve gained about a pound or so…I’m hoping it’s just muscle. Because I’ve been eating well and...
Jillian michaels 30 day shred - day seven
Today was hard to get motivated to work out. I worked out right after dinner which was a mistake…definitely wait more than a half hour next time for sure. I asked Tara if she had been doing the shred while I was gone an she has been but didn’t do it double the day she was supposed to. I also filmed level three for while I’m in Hawaii. Level three looks tough. I’m also...
Jillian michaels 30 day shred - day six
Used my moms two pound hand weights again this morning while doing the work out. I’m contemplating taking them home with me because I think they’ll really help tone me more than the canned goods will. I’m not as tired after the work out is done but I still feel really worked out after its over. Sunday is alway a tough day to get motivated so we’ll see how well I do on day...
Jillian michaels 30 day shred - day five
Luckily I recorded the level two work out yesterday because I ended up going to my parents house tonight for a sleep over straight from work. Also lucky for me my mom has actual hand weights. The arm strength exercises are significantly harder even with the small two pound weights. The first strength exercises with the static squat and row was the hardest. The hardest thing for me today was the...
Jillian michaels 30 day shred - day four
I had to do it today without tara. She had a bad day and went to her boyfriends house. She said she would do it when she gets home so I’ll check with her tomorrow to see if she did. We have been using canned products as weights and I think we need to start using some actual hand weights because I’m not feeling much in my arms except during the military press followed by the v lift...
Jillian michaels 30 day shred - day three
After icing her knees last night Tara felt much better. We’ve decided she should do it after each session just to be safe. I also forgot to mention we don’t have hand weights so we’ve been using canned goods instead. Day three was good. In the morning my thighs weren’t sore anymore however they are a bit sore while working out and after again. I’m curious to see how...

Tara’s knees are a bit sore today so she had decided to follow the low impact version of the level two work out. I’m not sore after day one. We find the hardest circuit to be circuit three with the squats with the v raises. Right after finishing I already noticed my thighs are a bit sore today. Tara is icing her knees to ensure her best results.
Jillian michaels 30 day shred - day one
Day one Tara and I started out with level two because we felt level one was far too easy for our activity level. We plan on doing 15 days in level two and 15 days in level three. The first work out was really good. We were both out of breath and pretty tired after the first day was done.
