I wouldn't rule this out after just 10 days because you're not seeing physical results. First of all, 10 days is a very short amount of time to expect to see noticeable results from ANY workout that you're doing for just 25 minutes a day. Secondly, there are many other benefits from doing a balanced workout such as this on a regular basis.

Give it some more time before you decide that 30 days is enough.

LOL

That's hilarious! I can't help but laugh when she yells stuff like that. FWIW, it is a really good workout, for anyone who's thinking of trying it!

You're right..and that's the reminder I needed. It seemed like everyone else was noticing like instant results with the Shred so I was getting discouraged that I didn't look more toned at all, but I have to remember 10 days is actually a short amount of time.

I didn't notice super great results right away and frankly I think some people exaggerate

I did take measurements at the beginning and end and there was definite improvement! I lost a lot in inches in 30 days!

Jillian's got a new one: Ripped in 30

I just tried it for the first time. It's kinda more of the same (3-2-1), only 4 levels instead of 3. Either way, I liked the 30 Day Shred, so I'm good with this, except 2 things:the EASIER modification girl is scary-ripped and doesn't really modify much - since it's been a few weeks since I've worked out hard, I needed her to work with me a little more. I miss Anita! The other thing is that Jillian has seemed to have gotten even crazier in the commentary. Yes, it's possible apparently.

It was definitely worth the $10 though. It comes with a meal plan that you can download from her website, but it's a pretty standard 3 meals & a snack 400 cal per meal plan - nothing really stuck out as unique.

I've decided to give this a shot.

Today is supposed to be day 3, but my legs are on fire from the previous two days, so I'm kinda wanting to skip today. I didn't have any problems with the abs or arm stuff, but my quads hurt like hell. I blame the lunges.

Trying to motivate myself to just do it and get it over with. Arg. Damn lunges.

Jillian says not to work a muscle that's sore because it's more destructive than constructive. She also says to only workout 5-6 times a week because your muscles need the break. You can skip tonight and pick it up tomorrow, or just do the cardio and abs and march in place during the strength.
