This is day 8 for me. Still doing level 1. I am kind of unsure of when to move up and /or rest. Pulled a calf muscle pretty bad on day 4 but continued to do it, just substituted different cardio for the butt kicks. I am really liking it and anxious to advance to Level 2 I can feel myself getting stronger and believe that inches will disappear.

Age - 52
Starting weight-164
Height - 5'4"
Thighs - 21.5
Hips - 39.25
Waist - 36
Arms - 12.5
Back(above the boobies) - 37
Abs - 39.25

It is my evening workout. I use the elliptical or Bowflex each morning briefly.

i'll be doing day 6 soon Add me if you would like! I have some friends added from another post about the shred but more friends would be even better to remind me to stick to it! I am close to my goal weight, but not my goal body so hoping the shred will help tone up and lose some inches!

CW: 128 (this is my SW for the shred)
GW: 125

I'm moving in 2 months back to a city I used to live in and hoping to surprise all my old friends with my new body!

Ooo I'm really thinking about trying the 30 day shred once I hit maintenance. I'll be really interested to see how you all are finding it.

Question to all those starting - are you quite fit already? Do you currently exercise or are you starting afresh with 30DS?

I ask because I worry about how my unused muscles will cope, and how punishing it is for a beginner...

Hi everyone! :flowerforyou: Just finished day 2 and even though I was abot sore, it wasn't as painful as I thought it would be. It certainly helps that it's only 20 minutes! :laugh:

I wouldn't call myself "quite fit" but I have been running for about 2 years. I am pretty slow--run a 5k in about 35 minutes. I also use the stationary bike, elliptical and occasionally arc trainer and stairmaster at my gym. I do some sporadic lifting (mostly machines, but some free weights) and try to do core work such as planks, push ups, and crunches at home. The problem is, I LOVE the cardio and always skip the strength and core work. 30 DS forces me to do it which I like.

I'm a bit sore and could already do army style push ups and planks, so I would think it would be even harder if I had no prior exercise.

Did day 2 this morning. Felt better doing it today.......bring on day 3!

I'm going to have a go. I've got the DVD but I haven't taken the wrapper off yet. Is there anyone here who's done it from a 'standing start' i.e. totally out of condition?

Also, I'm recovering from a frozen shoulder, so I have limited movement in my right arm / shoulder. I'd love to hear from anyone who's had this problem and can give me some tips!!

Thanks!

I'm hopefully starting this tomorrow, looking forward to it and hoping to get some good results. I'm so lazy though - but hopefully I'll be able to bring myself to do it if its only 20 or so mins! How do you do it, 10 days on level 1, 10 days on level 2 and so on?

I finished 30DS L1 Day 5 this morning and actually felt good enough to do most of Killer Buns and Thighs this evening! Day 2 and 3 were the worst for me. I still have trouble getting through the jumping jack and jump rope circuits. I'm getting better at pushups even though they're still modified. At least I'm going down all the way! Lol! Other than being a mom I am or wasn't very active. I find the last couple of days me asking the kids if they want to jump on the trampoline or ride bikes! Way more energy than normal.

Today is Day 2 for me. Haven't done any measurements as of yet, I'll do that in the morning!

Starting weight- 214

Height- 5'8"

How are you tracking the exercise in your diary? I've been picking Aerobics high impact. I know I need an HRM.

niquerester

My sore spots were my arms and calves. I wish it would have been my abs. Sometimes I don't think I do the crunches and other ab exercises the correct way.

niquerester

In another post someone said they logged it as circuit training. I'm not sure how accurate that is but, that's what I've been logging. I would like to get some type of HRM to be more accurate.
