Is there lots of paper involved?

Day 8 of the 30 Day Shred is complete!

I’ve had some people ask just what this shredding thing is. Yes, I need to work on shredding the papers in my office, but this isn’t what that is. This is a workout routine.

So many others had mentioned it, and I was curious. I did some searching and found it on Amazon.

This is the one I’m doing:

Along with Jillian, there are two other ladies to follow. Anita does modified versions of some of the moves for the newbies in the bunch, and Natalie does the harder versions of the moves for those crazy people who want a little more. Some moves don’t have modified versions, but that’s to be expected.

Most of the time, I follow Anita. Every once in a while, I see if I can do it the way Natalie does it. Even when I’m done with the 30-days, it’s good to see I won’t get completely bored with this routine.

There are three levels, and each one is broken down into a 20 minute workout.

Each workout is broken down into three sets.  Each set has the following:
3 minutes strength
2 minutes cardio
1 minute abs

Each set is done three times. (3-2-1, repeat.) There are different moves in each set. Personally, I hate the first interval. (This one has the dreaded pushups and the squat & press. I do them, but I don’t like them.  I am getting better at pushups, but I still don’t like them.) I actually really like the second one. The third one is nice because it means I’m almost done!

(There is a brief warm-up and cool-down, and they make up the remaining 2-minutes of the 20 minute total.)

So, Day 8 of the 30 Day Shred is done. I have two more days at Level 1 and then I get to discover all Level 2 has to offer.

Now that my “shredding” is done for the day, I should get to my other shredding duties. I’ve let the papers pile up, and it’s time to get that under control. Just call me Fawn.
