ok im in. im new to this site - and just figured i better jump on in posting.
my goal this month is to do the 30 day shred with my husband. as i know we will be traveling, i am giving myself a couple days off from the video, but expect myself to still get out and moving on those couple of days.
so i guess (since apparently i havent already thought this through), i am hoping for lets call it 27 shred workouts
and three days of at least getting out and walking.
Great goals, everyone! Let me know if I've missed anyone or mis-stated anyone's intention.

For the easy days, I get a kick out of the Island Girl hula DVDs and they are always cheap on Amazon. A lot of folks on 3FC do Thirty Day Shred by Jillian Michaels. I have that and like it, but prefer the longer, gentler (but just as intense) workouts by Ellen Barrett. Walk Away the Pounds with Leslie Sansone is another classic. I always think those are going to be too easy, but then I'll get one from the library and find that I'm wrong...
My log:
8/1: 50 min treadmill; 50/1300 min, 3/33 miles
I'm new to this thread and this site. I'm setting an August goal of 27 days of workouts leaving one day a week for rest/recovery. I'm currently at day 44 of P90X and mixing in some callanetics to focus on my lower body.
As far as workout DVDs, Jillian Michaels is great--but very intense. The Firm Sculpt series is more expensive, and a little old school, but wow is it good for strength training--it does require special equipment though. Looking for something different, I just bought Zumba DVDs...and so far, I love them Lots of fun...!
