anybody else thinking that "Natalie" would rather be doing the modified versions instead of the advanced ones? :laugh:
She totally cheats on 2 of the lunges when she thinks the camera is on Whitney!!!! LOL
And she is always standing up a little bit on her squats too! cracks me up :laugh: and makes me feel better about myself for sticking it out!
Makes me feel human!
And it was Anita....not Whitney. :blushing:0 -
Hey guys, ot logged on a couple of days but thought I'd update you with my progress.
I've not missed a day and decided to make the switch to level 2 on day 7.
I'm finding day 2 tough on the upper body, man your shoulders burn at times!!!
And Natalie has a wee cheat on level 2 aswell haha. Jillian notices aswell, it's quite funny!
I start Monday....is it as hard on the legs as level1?0 -

I dont think it's near as tough on the legs, but then I think my legs are stronger already.
Shoulders are the one area that really burns on level 2, a lot of the strength work on them, plus the plank jacks/squat thrusts in the cardio section put static pressure on them.
I'm generally quite weak in the upper body though, so might be finding it tougher than most.0 -

yeah, definitely feel the burn in the shoulders on level 2! :explode:
are you able to do the true versions of the plank jacks and squat thrusts? i have only been able to get a few good ones in, then I switch to the modified versions. Can't imagine a time that I'll be doing them all, but I hope I improve!0 -

I've modded them slightly differently.
I have my hands on a chair so I'm not right down on the ground, it really helps wqith the pressure on the shoulders. I do manage to do Natalies leg movements that way.
I'm hoping that I'll see a big improvement in my upper body and really hope to be doing the squat thrusts and plank jacks properly soon.
I noticed an improvement quite quickly on level 1, so hopefully it'll be the same for level 2 for me.0 -
L1D9 done! Whew!
Only 1 more day at level 1 for me! You girls are making me a little nervous about level 2! I start next week on Monday! Wish me luck......and strength! :noway:0 -
Hi -
Looking forward to Level 2 (I think). I'm about done with Level 1. Plus, I looked at the calendar and realized I have three weeks before I go on vacation. I'd like to do Level 2 and Level 3 in that time period, so I'd better get going on Level 2. I think my shoulders are hurting at just the thought of it.... :noway:
Just for something different last night, I did Jillian's Yoga Meltdown. OMG - that is no joke! (as Jillian would say). Holy crap. It was supposed to be an easy night of yoga to give my legs a break. Yeah, not so much. WOW. OK, back to the Shred tonight!
Have a good day everyone!0 -
I love wal mart. I got my 30 DS there for $9 and yesterday I got Jillians no more trouble zones for $5.They have the best deals. I am doing the shred 2 times today. Once on my own and once with a friend this afternoon.0

I missed my shred last night, was really busy when I got in from work, feeling bad about it, would have been day 11 (not taken a day off from the shred yet)
Might do levels 1 AND 2 tonight to punish myself........ I'm feeling sore at the thought!!!0 -
I finished level 1 today! Yay!!!!!
I must admit that I am nervous about next week! The plank jacks are very intimidating.0 -
Did Level 2 last night, not too bad. Although I did it in our office upstairs, and the room was hot with no fan. I was sweating buckets! :noway: Tomorrow, I'll be doing it in the living room downstairs where it's cool.
I did o.k. on the planks. I like the cardio better in Level 2, was really getting bored with jumping jacks.
No Shred tonight - going out with the hubby for our anniversary! :drinker: :drinker: Happy Friday everyone!0 -
Hi everyone!
I know I'm late on joining...but I started with 30DS on July 3. I've not been real consistent with working out daily (last week, I missed 2 days, and this week was VERY bad...I got a workout in yesterday morning, and plan on getting one in tonight).
I am on day 2 of Level 2. Level 2 is much more difficult for me...it is a killer on the shoulders!! But, I love the challenge!!
I hope it's ok that I join this thread! You are all so great on giving feedback and providing support!!0 -
