***All you Shredders sing it with me now (to the tune of The Twelve Days of Christmas)…

Onnn the 12th day of shredding, Jillian gave to me…

20 minute work-outs,

lots of muscles aching,

a trainer for beginners,

another one for show-offs,

are these trainers mothers?

their abs make me jealous,

I don’t have a six-pack,

except for Diet Coke,

it’s gonna’ take some patience,

five pound weights for lifting,

double jump rope, seriously?

failed attempts at push-ups,

several children laughing,

some were even mocking,

even while I panted,

and also when my heart raced,

level two is harder,

level three you scare me,

why does Jillian tease me?

I wanna’ “phone it in”,

the big four-OH is coming,

so I’ll keep on pushing,

I hope the torture pays off,

stomach slowly firming,

when it’s finally over,

a body that is shredded,

if I’m not fab by 40,

I’ll give away this workout…

and then I’ll hunt down Jillian…

and shred her shredded body like shredded cheese!
