Forget Old Workout Videos, Here’s Why Jillian Michaels’ 30 Day Shred is STILL Incredible
OMG, does anyone else still have workout VHS tapes lying around? While trying to find a converter, I stumbled onto something even better – the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred online! Forget messing with DVDs.
I know she’s known for being tough, but is this old-school workout even worth it in this age of high-tech fitness?
Spoiler alert: Heck yes. Turns out, her classic cardio-strength combo is still a fat-loss powerhouse.
Here’s my no-BS take on the 30 Day Shred:
- Expect to feel the burn (and maybe curse Jillian out loud): These are NOT easy workouts. But hey, if you want major results in 30 days, you gotta work for it. Each 20-minute shred session is packed with strength, cardio, and abs.
- Perfect if you’re short on time: Who has hours to spend in the gym? 24 minutes a day is all it takes to see a difference.
- “Beginner? Start with Level 1, I SAID LEVEL 1!”: Jillian says it for a reason. If you think you’re fit, Level 2 will still bring the pain.
- You’ll be sore AF, but you’ll see results: This workout’s legendary for a reason. Diet matters too, but I saw progress within days!
Ready to try it? Here are your options:
- Try Level 1 for $1.99 on Amazon Prime (great way to test it out!)
- Get started with the FREE Jillian Michaels Beginner Shred Level 1 on FitFusion.

Is the 30 Day Shred right for YOU?
- You want a proven, intense workout. This isn’t for the faint of heart, but that’s the point!
- You’re motivated by tough love (with a side of Jillian’s sass). If you hate trainers who baby you, Jillian’s your girl.
- You’re bored with your current routine. This is a great way to shake things up and challenge yourself.
Important to know:
- Injury-prone? Proceed with caution. Some movements can be risky with poor form. Modifications are KEY.
- Need rest days? Do it your way. You might need a break between levels or to alternate with lighter workouts.
- This is the START, not the end: Once you shred for 30 days, tons of other Jillian workouts can keep those results coming.
My bottom line: The 30 Day Shred WORKED for me. I lost inches, got stronger, and actually enjoyed the challenge (even when sore!). If you’re up for a sweaty good time and serious changes, this is it.
FAQs
- I’m completely new to fitness – is the 30 Day Shred too difficult for me?
- While the 30 Day Shred is challenging, Jillian often offers modifications for beginners. If you’re completely new, start with her Beginner Shred workout (as mentioned in the article) to build some fitness before diving into the full program.
- What kind of results can I realistically expect in 30 days?
- Results vary depending on your starting point and how closely you follow a healthy eating plan. You could see changes in inches lost, increased strength, improved stamina, and overall body toning.
- I have [knee issues/bad back/etc.] . Can I still do this workout?
- It’s always best to consult your doctor before starting a new exercise program, especially if you have injuries. There are often modifications you can do, but it’s important to focus on perfect form and listen to your body.
- Do I really need to do this every single day?
- Technically, yes, the program is designed for daily workouts. However, listen to your body! If you’re truly sore, substituting a lighter workout or yoga session might be wise.
- Where can I find the 30 Day Shred workouts?
- I’ve included several options in the article – Amazon Prime for individual levels, the full DVD, and streaming options!

can plz us where is the level 4 of the 30 days shred
So how does this work? The first day you do level 1, the next level 2, and the next level 3, and then go back to level 1 or? please help, thanks
Do you have to exercise every day 5 out of seven or only 3 days a week?
You do it everyday. Every. Day. – it’s designed to build habit. It’s literally 21 mi Utes of exercise so a break isn’t needed each week.
Hydrate. I drank a glass of water before and a glass of water after, and obviously, plenty of water throughout the day. I work out first thing in the morning, on an empty stomach, and it works for me. But other people might find themselves feeling ill because of this. If that s the case, eat.
Does anyone know where I can find a group to join to start BODYSHRED?
Admiring the hard work you put into your blog and detailed information you
provide. It’s good to come across a blog every once in a while that isn’t the same out of date rehashed information. Fantastic
read! I’ve saved your site and I’m adding your RSS feeds to my
Google account.
Awesome info over again. Thumbs up;)
“I’ve done P90 Master Series and I run but I was surprised at how had Level 1 was for me!!” Quoted from above. Hahahahahaha :-) While this is clearly a glorified ad for Jillian Michaels, and I actually think this DVD would be great for a lot of people (including those who are fit), to say that Level 1 would be difficult for someone who has (realistically) done P90 is laughable. Given how different people’s definition of “hard” is for workouts, I think it’s important to keep things realistic. So – no. Level 1 would not be challenging if you have done those. 2 and 3 are harder, and you can always add explosive movements to 1 to get a more intense workout if you wish.
