I've done two days of it now and WOW is my core feeling it! My upper and side abs (can't think of the actual names) are really sore. My low back too. But in a good way. And surprisingly so are my legs (especially my inner thighs, nice!) and glutes.
So far I like it more than the 30DS. But I think it's because Jillian is a little less annoying in this one. A little.
Has anyone else done or doing it right now?
Re: JM's 6 week six pack
How often are you doing it? I completed level 1. I did it 2-3 times a week coupled with C25K. I started the program right after the 30 Day Shred. I honestly did not like it very much - hence me not moving on to level 2. I felt like I got weak doing it since I was not working as hard as I was during the Shred. I have a lot of Jillian's DVDs now so once I get back into the swing of things, I'll add it to the rotation. I just feel like I got much more from the Shred.
Keep going at it though if it works for you!!
I have been doing it every other day. It's 30 minutes long.
It's not as great of a work out as the 30DS but still good for core/lower body. I've done the 30DS twice (30days 2x, not just 2 days, lol) and love it for it's whole body kick your butt workout. But it's too hard on my knees and back.
6W6P is not as intense, but it gets me sweating and my heart rate up. I think in order for it to be a full body work out, you need to add in more cardio and arm/upper body specific exercises.
It's a nice change from the 30DS. I just have it on netflix, I am not sure I will buy my own copy.
