Shred What?

I do believe that Jillian Michaels is out to kill me.



If I'm still alive after 30 days and able to move at that point, I'll let you know if the dvd actually accomplishes something other than a near-death experience.

Because after only the first level workout tonight I thought that I might pass out. I'm scared to death to watch the second two levels - even if I'm sitting down.

Do not be fooled by how simple it looks! It's simply deceptive. And even though your mind may be tricked, your body will be hating you.

And your legs will refuse to walk down the stairs to your basement. Making you wonder if you should just sit down and take the stairs on your bum instead.

But once you get to the bottom, how do you get back up?

    Anxiously awaiting the final verdict. Any DVD with 'Shred' in the title scares me just a little! Ah well. Off to do my Iron Yoga, I'll be joining you in the pain department soon.

    (Just so you know...my word verification starts with 'die'. Fitting, no?)
