Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30 Week 1

I started Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30 last week. For this workout program, I decided I will be uploading weekly reviews then a final one at the end.

If it works out great and I get great feedback, I will do that for every workout going forward.

I began Ripped in 30 workout program immediately after finishing Body Revolution which I reviewed HERE. I have also reviewed BodyShred HERE.

How Long is Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30?

Ripped in 30 is a 30-day diet and exercise plan created to get you in premium shape fast.

The Ripped in 30 system is based on Jillian’s best-selling body shredding 3-2-1 interval system.

This interval system is 3 minutes of strength, 2 minutes of cardio, and 1 minute of abs.

Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30 Week 1 Update

Week 1 is comprised of a 20-minute workout with 2 minutes warm-up and 2 minutes warm down.

Circuit 1

• Strength – push-ups, squat and press with weights and crescent pose with tricep kickbacks with weights (Twice)
• Cardio – fast feet and skaters (Twice)
• Abs – plank hold and hollow man

Circuit 2

• Strength – deadlift with weights, squat swing with weight and weighted good mornings (Twice)
• Cardio – running man and squat punches (Twice)
• Abs – oblique raises (left and right side)

Circuit 3

• Strength – chair pose with reverse flys, side lunges with front raises, and lunges with bicep press, all with weights (Twice)
• Cardio – butt kicks and single-leg hops (Twice)
• Abs – crunches and reverse crunch

I have come across most of the moves in earlier workout programs so it was easy for me to get into them.

I didn’t feel challenged enough for the first two days so I increased my weights a little bit.

The workout is only 20 minutes so it wasn’t too much of a strain on my muscles.

The first week is Jillian and 2 other fitness trainers. One person followed the routine while the other person modified it for beginners.

Equipment for Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30 Week 1

You’ll need 1 light hand weight (I used 5 kg) and 1 heavy hand weight (I used 10 kg).

You’ll also need a mat for floor exercises if you’re working out on a hard surface.

Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30 Workout Schedule

The DVD set I have doesn’t include a workout schedule.

I guess because it’s pretty straightforward –  6 days of the same workout followed by 1 rest day then switch to the next workout.

Nevertheless, I like to have a schedule I can tick off when I’m working out so I created one.

If you’re like me and want to keep yourself on track, you can download the workout schedule HERE.
