Day One

Behold the power of definitive statements! From now on I'm going to say, "I'm going to work out today." Rather than, "I might work out today."

After work today I popped in Jillian's 30 Day Shred and proceeded to the Level 1 workout.

Oh. My. Gosh.

Her workouts amaze me because there's nothing fancy about them...no complicated moves or steps...but yet, I'm drenched in sweat after them. Who would have thought some jumping jacks and pretend jump rope could bust my butt so bad??

Don't underestimate those jumping jacks! Have you done any recently? Give it a whirl! I dare ya!

Also, I only have 5 pound weights, so for some of the exercises I had to put them down because my upper body strength is non-existent apparently. That's a bummer.

I've pretty much decided I'm stretching this to a 2 month shred. ;o) I'm just not sure 10 days per level is enough for me...I'd rather be really proficient at one level than move on and stumble through the next.

Those are my thoughts after day 1. I'll check in after 10 and let you know what I really think!

  1. So your brother has been kicking my butt in strength training. I'm sure he'd be happy to put a routine together for you:)
