30 days shred and TTC?

Question

Im TTC my #1. Do you think its possible to me to do 30 days shred by Jillian Michaels, as her workout is very intense and all? Or should I stick with light cardio? 
Fyi last time I did 30 days shred until day 4, and I feel like I almost faint everytime. Lol

Answer

I've been ttc #1 for 10 months and doing intense bootcamp sessions twice a week. My acupuncturist recently suggested I do more relaxing workouts (like yoga)while I'm ttc. I'm still not sure if I want to give it up completely though. My sister conceived 1 month after stopping bc and she does cross-fit 3 times a week. So in response to your question about shred my answer is: I'm really not sure what's best. Sorry, this isn't more helpful!

Answer

From what I've been told you shouldn't do intense workouts if you're TTC or pregnant but I'm not a Dr so not for sure lol

Answer

Maybe you could work up to the shred sequence gradually? If it's making you want to faint by day 4, the intensity might be too high. You could try working with a trainer (if that's in budget) for a few sessions to get yourself started. I've been able to exercise through my pregnancy (now in 3rd trim) but had a good foundation going in - and so grateful for it. So it's a worthwhile thing you're pursuing, I guess is what I'm trying to say. Good luck and good for you for being motivated!
