I’m into day 10 of the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred and it has already been the most exercise I’ve done in um, the last 10 years. I shall rave about the awesomeness that is what I think is the most badass workout video I have ever seen in another post, right after I show you my rock hard after-2-kids-abs.
For now, I bring to you a rip off of the 30 Day Shred, Kirsten style. You probably want to do this if you have no intention of losing any weight or getting in any real exercise. Otherwise, I recommend that you seek professional help (ie. Jillian herself).
Ladies, if you want to look exactly like this, just do what my baby girl does and you’ll get there in no time. Also, eat a lot of french fries.
If you’re ready, let’s begin. First, you want to put on some protective headgear so we keep those brain cells warm and safe.
Moving into side stretches. Make sure you get in a nice big stretch to open up your core. We don’t want any injuries here.
Alright, you need to really get into it. Work those muscles in, injuries are not allowed, people.
And going right into windmills. Keep your arms locked in a straight position and bring them around; you should start to feel that heart rate going. If you’re not sure how, just flail them around wildly, that always works.
Now for a serious strength move – squats. You need to feel those legs burnnn. Or if you’re tired, you can just chill out there for 5 minutes.
Finally, give those muscles a good flex. Come on, flex it like you mean it.
Congratulations, that brings us to the end of workout one. Keep this up and you’ll look exactly the same as you did before.

And little girl is so cute in these photos… she might yell at you next time for putting up her tummy for the whole world to see though.

True, but small price to pay because it’s too cute to resist..
BTW, she pulled up her shirt all by herself, I didn’t make her do it. I think she was feeling a little hot after the exercise and started yanking up her top.
Hahaha! Cutest poses!

The best part about having kids is that they can make anything look cute. When I do the same thing, people are all like “NOOOO MAKE IT STOP!!”
Happy New Year, Daphne. I seldom blog now, but I do read your blog whenever I can. Have a good year ahead!

corsage´s last post ..Missy Messy
Hahaha that’s more like 1 BIG AB. Joined together. I have one just like that, except slightly bigger.
that was too cute! pity no one would think the same thing if i was to be doing them poses! best wishes for 2011.
Exactly!! Once you pass the age of 5, nobody wants to see you jiggling bits around. Life is so unfair.
Hahaha…this is a very creative post. My husband once said that if adults could just mimic a child’s every movement, we would lose weight instantly! Imagine what all the leaping, prancing and squats could do for our figure!
Yeah, I get exhausted doing half the things they do. That’s probably why their metabolism is so much higher.
Hey Daphne! Hilarious post! So so cute, especially love the last .flex those muscles. picture. Reminds me of the gym instructor chiding the class to kick higher when my legs were about to give way in those kick-boxing sessions!
Samantha´s last post ..Movie-Going
I have concluded that fitness people are all a little psychotic. In that they have severe sadistic issues. I think it comes with all that muscles.
aaww so cute, she is adorable.
Love this post!
