We were thrilled when we were contacted by Jillian Michaels’ PR firm to receive a press copy of Ripped in 30. But as true Jillian Michaels worshipers, both Bill and I had pre-ordered ours! . We did ask if we could do a brief interview with Jillian, asking her some of the questions that...
As you have hopefully heard, now that Kristen’s and my races are done, we’re doing another challenge – hooray! In April, we’ll be doing Jillian Michaels’ newest DVD, Ripped in 30. It came about because of a conversation I had with @dapbim about getting back to strength training. She said she was going to...
You may have read our review of Level 1 of Jillian’s new 6 Week Six-Pack DVD. If not, no worries, because after Kristen and I both finished Level 2 we can say that… WE LOVE THIS DVD. Seriously, I can’t begin to explain how much I like it…but I’ll try. Level 1 was great,...
Today’s post comes from Brenda Hall – you may know her as @bah0812 – she’s a die-hard Jillian fan who just last weekend went on Jillian’s Wellness Cruise. Curious what a wellness cruise with Jillian is like? Wonder no more… — Who on god’s green earth would intentionally put themselves through a Jillian Michaels...
At long last, and a day later than I expected, the man in the brown shirt and shorts drove his boxy brown truck up to my house. He took the bubble-wrap envelope and, with great care, flung it about 20 feet up to the vicinity of my front door. But alas, he’d arrived after...
Last month we posted about the new Jillian Michaels Shred-it with Weights DVD that will be out at the end of August. You can see that we were so excited that put up a pre-order link and we created a countdown in our sidebar. However, we received word from Jillian herself that the DVD...
We’re often asked if there is anything similar to the 30 Day Shred in length and intensity, and thus far, we haven’t found any DVD that combines cardio, strength, and abs in a 20-minute workout. However, if you are looking to get a short workout in, then there are a plethora of decent workouts...
When you’re doing the same workout for a long period time, it’s pretty easy to get bored. Such is the case when you’ve trained for a big event, like a race, and then can’t seem to find the motivation to keep going. Whether you’re doing the 30 Day Shred, a C25K program, or a...
You can guess that we’re all too excited to get our hands on Jillian Michaels’ new Shred-it with Weights, a new Shred dvd that’s slated to be released on September 7, 2010. Granted, we’ve yet to actually get our hands on it or see how the workouts will be, but considering how much we...
I’m still amazed at how challenging the 30 Day Shred Level 2 is and by challenging I mean total and utter death – mostly due to the planks. And the jumping. And the jumping planks. It’s actually not that hard to adapt this level for pregnant women, and I definitely feel much more of...
