There's a lot going on with this challenge, but right now I want to talk about the class I went to yesterday. So I'm linking up with the awesome SkinnyMeg (or PregMeg) to talk about it.
Yesterday I tried out a new class at the gym - Jillian Michael's BodyShred. I was so excited to see this class pop up. We all know how great Jillian is, however, I'm not a huge fan of her. I can't stand listening to her, and the music in her videos definitely leaves something to be desired.
The class was very similar to her videos, and incorporates the 3-2-1 format - 3 minutes of strength, 2 minutes of cardio, and 1 minute of abs. The class was intense, and I had to stop a few times to catch my breath. There was so much going on, and really no breaks. We just had to listen to our bodies and take breaks when necessary.
I had forgotten my heart rate monitor at home, so I can't tell you how many calories I burned, but I was sweating!! If any of you go to a gym where this class is offered, GO! Especially all you Jillian lovers out there. In my opinion, the class was even better than her videos.

PS I'm trying to figure out what kind of blogging schedule I'm going to have with this challenge. There's so much to this challenge that I don't want to miss out on updating everyone on everything. Slowly but surely I'm working on it.
PPS The Big Brother finale is on tonight. Anyone else watch this year? I have to say, this was probably the worst season ever. I can't stand any of the remaining three houseguests (if you watch the feeds, you know what I'm talking about - TV-only viewers will probably wonder why). I can't wait until this season is over. I stopped watching the feeds and reading the spoilers weeks ago after Elissa left. :(
I completely agree about the music in Jillian's workout videos... blah!
