I don’t watch the Biggest Loser so I wasn’t familiar with celebrity trainer Jillian Michaels. But when I heard about her new, supposedly very effective fitness DVD, 30 Day Shred, I decided to give it a try. The DVD features 3 different workouts that get progressively harder. The idea is to start with the Level 1 program and progress to Level 2 and Level 3, doing 10 workouts at each level. I’m on Level 1 and, believe me, it’s tough!
The best part is that each workout is only 30 minutes long, so even the busiest bride can fit it in 3-4 times per week. Add some walking on alternate days and you’ll likely be in fabulous shape by your wedding day. No crazy diets or miles of running required!
