September Challenge: Back to Shred
It’s September, #shredheads, and just in time for back-to-school, we’ve got a bunch of people lining up for what could be the most colossal of ALL challenges ever. It’s going to be the biggest smackdown in the history of histories!
Okay, maybe it’s not quite that big, but we’ve got some motivated people ready to work out in September…the challenge? Do 30 Day Shred every day in September (or do 30 Day Shred alternating days with running or walking).
Difficult? Maybe…but it’s definitely doable. And who doesn’t want to get back into shape now that the kids are back to school, or in preparation for the holidays ahead, or just because? So here’s who we’ve got on Team Jillian so far:
@temptingmama
@alotofnothing
@secretagentmama
@karensugarpants
@charmedimsure
@ourtypicallife
@reamasue
@aliciam237
@diva27406
If you’re participating, let us know here and on twitter – just make sure you include the #shredheads hashtag so we can follow along!
And if you’d rather do Bob Harper’s Inside Out DVDs, we’ve got at least one person committed to Team Bob for 30 days (following his workout schedules):
So which team am I on? I play for both teams. Wait a minute, that came out wrong. What I mean to say is that I’m sticking with my own plan for a while and am sticking with Jillian, Bob, and running…but I encourage you to pick a team if you don’t have a plan going already. It’s fun to be part of a crowd, and they’ll help you stick with it.
So which team are you on?


One is the loneliest number…
I think we all know how much I love Jillian, but I’m giving Bob a chance. He seems like a stand up guy. I’m going to compare my results with 30DS results from a couple years ago.
I am joining you! @mom2smc
I’m game for Team Bob…but I’m doing running too, so I’ll be doing his (most likely yoga but I will be brave after the 12th and try the cardio in there at times). If that’s cool, I’m in!
I dusted off my Jillian Michaels DVD this morning. Today is Day 1. I am committing to 3 times a week, Monday-Wednesday-Friday. On Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday I plan on walking/running (C25K) and/or biking!
GO FITNESS!
Bought the DVD at Walmart this morning! I’m a first-timer, but I’m determined!
Love that the anti-spam word was tutus.
I’m in for Team Jillian. Have been motivated by my own #fitbyforty efforts for the last several months, but now that the milestone birthday has come and gone, looking forward to this group effort. I’m @alexishinde. Will tweet with the hashtag as well.
So doing this. did so well the last time… let’s tear it up!
Sign me up for team Jillian, I have 4 shred virgins joining me too!
I’m in! Been doing it on my own, doing it with others will be more fun!
@Lindseyjay
I want to participate as well but I don’t have a Twitter account. I’m nervous but excited!
No twitter…no problem! We’d love to hear how you’re doing here or on our facebook page too!
I am in it with Jillian! I am pumped!
Add me to Team Bob! I am exclusively doing his DVDs and eating plan in “Are You Ready”. Go Team “no more excuses” Bob!
@mom2smc
Sign me up for Team Bob. I purchased his DVD’s over a month ago and this gives me a reason to dust them off and start using them!! Not to mention I need to drop another 15+ pounds… I’m @perkysgrl on Twitter!
I’m in for Team Jillian! 30 Day Shred every day in September — I got to Day 18 before I had to quit before my gallbladder surgery so now I want to do it all the way through. I’m @iheartthatdance on Twitter!!
I’d love to join a team – but I have neither Jillian or Bob’s DVD’s – I guess I’m out for this one… one of these days though!
I highly recommend getting 30DS…it’s really cheap at this point. Only $8.49 at amazon – check it here.
I am so in. I totally need this. 30 DS every other day with running the days in between.
I’m SO in! I’m starting half marathon training next Monday for the Seattle half in November, and I’m loving 30DS on off days for a strength workout! Let’s do this! @katieanne731
I can’t do the full month as I’m still in postpartum recovery, but I bought the DVDs recently and look forward to giving them a try as soon as I can. I’m walking every day but don’t quite have the energy for the full Jillian experience yet. @StephanieSD
sign me on for team Bob
I am IN!! 30 day shred and running, here I go!
I want to join to team “The Bob”!! @tribilindiaz
I’m in.. couldn’t decide which one to do until I saw the anti-spam work was shred
so 30DS it is
I did Day 12 of 30DayShred today with plans to keep doing it or another shred video with running after I finished. So, I’m in!
I’m @SkipsMKGirl on Twitter!
Bring it on, buddy! (For the record, I never called anyone “buddy” until I started doing JM30SD. After a week or so, I started calling my friend and my students “buddy.” It got a little weird.)
Sign me up for Team Jillian. After several fits & starts, I finally made it to 30SD Level 3 – and I’m ready to do this. (Bob, it’s all you next time, buddy.)
Can we also bike? (Rather than run/walk?)
If so, I’m in @suprcharger5150
Of course you can bike! We’re equal opportunity fitness people.
I’m team Bob. I will be travelling for two weeks, but all of my hotels have gyms so no excuses to slack off. I love a challenge.
In the past I’ve actually written down the workouts from the DVDs (haven’t done it with Bob’s yet though) and taken them with me to the hotel gyms. It works really well. Just a thought…and have good travels!
I’m in! I’d LOVE to do Team Bob but don’t have the $$ for the new DVD’s right now.
BUT I do have the shred…and I’m starting a marathon training program on the 20th SOOOO I’ll be team Jillian.
@MamaMandolin
I have 20lbs of 6month old twin boy weight to lose. UGH!
I put it up at the first reply, but I’ll be Team Bob this time – with running in there three times a week.
Oh… Twitter handle is @APrincessAsleep
I looked over Bob’s schedule and you know what?
I’m gonna do it!!!!! By Monday I’ll have my first 5K under my belt and be ready to go. So yeah…
Team Bob PLUS running!!
@APrincessAsleep
Well you KNOW I’m in. Been pimping you guys all day! Did L1D1 today after a 2K walk and a 5K run. Because I’m crazy.
I’m TOTALLY in for Team Bob!!!
Excited to give it a go!
I’m in
! I tried a full 30 days 30DS before but my eating was horrendous so that didn’t help a bit! But I’m doing much better with it! I’ll probably do Bob next month <3
I'm @vegangymmie on twitter
or visit my site I'll try to 'member to update regularly
Ok, I am going to alternate running with Team Bob! (@jxchu)
So which team am I on? I am going with Bob! I think he is the type of trainer I can respect and I like the fact that he really focuses on form and technique. I do not own either of those videos but I am willing to do all the workouts on the Bob Harper page, every other day and then I will run/walk a half marathon a week! Piece of cake!
Ok Im in! Let’s rock this!
OK, I am in for Team Jillian @gnwheat, but I plan to sneak in some Yoga Meltdown as well…love that DVD! The running piece is no problem, 5 days a week…
I’m in! Alternating Jillian w/running. @carabecca
Count me in for team Jillian and the 30DS!
I’m so in on this! I have no idea what day I will be starting the 30 DS (I just purchased it from Amazon yesterday evening), but I’m definitely ready for this(I hope!). About five months ago I changed my eating habits, but I’m still hanging onto those last 10 pounds, and it’s driving me bonkers! So for sure I’m team Jillian right now. I love Bob, but I let my friend borrow my Bob dvds! I’m hoping to keep everything updated on my blog once I get going.
Sign me up for Team Jillian (but I’ll be adding in some running and yoga at a nearby studio) – @esalbilla1 on Twitter. Knowing about the challenge is the reason I even worked out last night!
Hi! Sign me up for Team Bob please. I have his Inside Out Method collection and I’m ready to give them a shot. I’ve previously lost 70lbs with Jillian’s 30 Day Shred
. I still have 50lbs to go. My twitter account is @gymncheercoach .
I’m back! I just logged in to Shredheads after doing Level 1 tonight and had no idea about the challenge, but I’m totally Team Jillian! I’ve got major results to see as I just had my beautiful baby girl (which is why I had to quit shredding last October during my second round of it!)…

I’m IN!!!! I’ve already sent a tweet. Its @ThankYouJillian
