“This helps you burn more fat and more calories, and gets you toned that much faster,” Michaels exhorts as she zips through the exercises. But that pacing helps guarantee the results that Michaels touts. The transitions between strength, which can feature classic moves like pushups or reps with small weights, and cardio, and then between cardio and abs, are a mere second or two. Michaels allows no resting between each short burst of exercise, which is part of why the results happen so quickly. Even the beginner-level workout will have users’ heart rates up. The 30 Day Shred features three 20-minute workouts, each of which features, in rapid succession, short bursts of strength, cardio, and abs, and a cool-down. But anyone who’s ever seen Michaels work out with contestants on The Biggest Loser knows it’s not necessarily going to be easy. There’s a reason her 30 Day Shred workout has become a national hit: it works.

They seem to rotate in new workouts regularly so you can preview these for free before you decide to buy your own DVD! Both Level 1 & 2 Shred workouts were available on my cable for free for the month of August. And last recommendation, check your cable channels to see if you have some sort of Free/On-Demand exercise channel.I plan on continuing this workout or another one after my 30 days are done! It always feels good to be doing something strenuous, whatever that workout may be. I wasn’t working out at all before this, so it’s greatly impacted my overall energy level and happiness. At this point, I’m not really sure I’ll shred off a whole lot of weight in 30 days, but I’m satisfied to know that I’m getting in shape at the very least. ![]() I think I felt an ab muscle under that baby belly! With the commitment to daily workouts, I also get some extra room in my food budget to eat some snacks during the day or an extra dessert at dinnertime. I haven’t noticed much weight loss yet (outside of what I was already losing with managing my calories), but I do notice my body feeling more toned.
