    im up for it,if a little worryed by what i've heard about it lol
    what do you all log it as on your exercise log

    Log it as Circuit Training or make a new exercise using circuit training numbers. If you are able to get a HRM that's your best bet.. I'm still hoping to get a HRM soon. Good luck !

    Day one completed level 1 dont think i will ever be able to master jumping jacks...

    I totally understand this, it's not so much that I can't do a jumping jack or a jump rope for that matter, it's just that I am really top heavy even with 2 bras on and it kinda hurts, so I jog in place at a rate comparable to the jumping jacks and jump ropes. As long as I'm moving I think it should count for something.

    So okay here's my dilemma - I have boot camp Tues, Wed, & Friday, which is just like the 30DS and I am not sure how I should work this schedule. Any suggestions? I was thinking maybe I could try to do it in the morning before work, what you think? Hope everyone is having a great time shredding:drinker:

    I have what may seem like an od question, but am very interested in the 30 day shred. i was wondering how much room you need to do it. I have weights, but unfortunately i room and board, as opposed to renting a full apartment, so i realy only have ful use of a bed room... will that be enough space?

    Walmart sells a watch that has a built in heart rate monitor and pedometer. I love mine! It is great to check heart rates while running/walking. I think mine cost about $30 and is made by Sportline- it eliminates the need for a chest strap which can be uncomfortable.

    That should be plenty of room, you only need a limited amount of space. If you can do jumping jacks in your room, then you have enough space :)

    I had started this 9-1-10 but haven't stuck to it like I wanted so I am starting over. I did get to level 2 and for the most part I did ok but I maybe wasn't quite ready to move on just yet. I felt like in level 2 I had to modify things a bit more and in turn I felt like Iwasn't getting a very good workout in. So I am going to start again here, and maybe give L1 another week before I move on again. Worry about it later for now just focus and hold in those cores.... it really does make it easier!!:bigsmile:
