Jillian Michaels is a skank.

She is. A dirty, filthy, stinking, ripped, bad ass hoe.

2 weeks ago I started her 20 minute ’30 Day Shred 1′ workout DVD. Mind you, I haven’t worked out in over a year and a half. How bad could 20 minutes be, right? WRONG! I could not walk for 6 days after that. That bitch killed me!! Before I got pregnant, I would work out almost every day, run at least 3 miles a day and do some type of strength training, so I figured 20 minutes would be cake. I was sadly mistaken. I literally could not lift my little mama out of her crib nor walk down the flight of steps in my house. Out of shape is an understatement. So I had to go on a 10 day hiatus to rest my muscles and get back to normal.

That takes me to last night. I tried it again: Day 1.2 of the ’30 Day Shred’. You are constantly moving and doing some type of motion. 2 minutes of cardio, 2 minutes of strength, 2 minutes of abs, repeat x’s 3. The method to her madness is working smaller muscles with larger muscles and that will get you lean. Along with jumping jacks, butt kicks, static punches, and abs – you are supposed to get SHREDDED.

I am skeptical, however, at just how “shredded” one can get from just 20 minutes of working out a day. But I guess 20 minutes is better than nothing. So I am willing to try just about anything to get back into shape and God knows that is more than enough spare time I have to try. I am officially putting all my eggs in the Jillian Michaels basket. I also have a tiny bit of extra motivation: a wedding. My husbands cousin is getting married in just over a month giving me the push I need to get up and do this shit.

I know I’m the last person on earth to jump on the Jillian Michaels bandwagon but an hour of P90X wasn’t in my cards. My husband wanted me to do the ‘Brazilian Butt Lift’…I think he’s trying to tell me something. Have you tried any 20-30 minutes exercise DVDs? If so, suggestions!??!
