So I had tried to start this on June 1, but other things kept me from doing it properly.

So I am going to start it again on Monday, June 22. I plan on doing it Mon-Sat, with Sunday being my rest day. I also plan on doing one level per week.

Who's with me?

    I'm so in! I just completed Week1 Day3.

    I also REALLY hate the running man. I'm also not a fan of the side lunges with the raises. I can do the lunges fine, but even with my 3lb weights I struggle with the arm raises. I just decided to do them without the weights for that one.

    I vary with my weight sizes. Some of the moves I use an 8lb and others I use a 5pb.

    W1D2 completed.

    W1D3 complete.

    I use 8lbs for all the moves except the lunge/tricep things - those I drop to 5lbs but I might be able to go up to 8lbs by the end of the week.

    Today I felt stronger than I have all week. My pushups are up to 15 each time (on my knees, but hey on day 1 I was barely getting 10) and I am not dying on the cardio. I do end up only doing half the lunge/biceps but that has to do more with my knees than anything. I'm getting better though.

    Is ripped in 30 the same as 30 day shred.

    It's the same concept (3-2-1), but different moves and with 4 levels instead of 3.

    My count was off last time I posted, I checked my calendar and that should have been D4. I did 5 days on Level 1 and yesterday I just could not push through no matter how hard I tried. So I listened to my body and took the day off. I think part of it was repetition/boredom. I'd already done level 1 several different times throughout hte month trying to start up and having other things get in the way so by yesterday I'd probably done level 1 something like 10 times in total throughout the last month.

    Today I took measurements and decided to start level 2 because I needed something different.

    My new measurements show that THIS REALLY WORKS!!!

    I measure in CM because it's easier to see results (and easier to represent a partial cm than a partial inch).
    Weight: DOWN 1.6lb

    Thigh L: down 1.4cm
    Thigh R: down 3.0cm

    Stomach (largest part of stomach): down 2.8cm

    Hips: down 1.3cm

    Waist (smallest part of torso, I have a definite "hourglass"): down 0.9cm

    Bra Band: (no change because I just measured it for the first time this time around).


    I was disappointed at first because my weight yesterday was even lower, and today it was up by 0.8lb BUT when I took measurements I remembered exactly why we don't let the scale tell us what is going on! Woot! Keep it up people!!
