    I was thinking about doing each level for 10 days then moving on to the next. This way I will have completed all three levels in the 30 days. I just hope levels 2 & 3 don't kick my butt too hard!

    Day 4 Complete....I cant believe I did 15 of the pushups today, :noway: Thanks to this push up challenge I joined this month (push ups are my worst enemy).....After I finished the 30 Day Shred, I decided to see if I could do some of her Banish Fat Boost Metabolism DVD. I did the entire DVD, that was a good workout. I like the different cirucuits, well not Circuit 4, not feeling the mountain climbs and plank exercises. I was sweating and exhausted after this workout. I will definitely be adding this DVD to my workout schedule. :smile:

    I'm doing a pushup challenge too! So far I loving it. Did 52 regular pushups today and then a bunch a girlie ones during Shred.

    We're probably in the same challenge...The one Im in is titled "November Challenge". do 50 push ups a day (wall, counter, girlie and/or regular). Congrats on doing 52 regular pushups! :drinker: (water).....I hope I can do at least 5 by the end of the challenge.:noway:

    I just saw this challenge!

    I started on October 25th so I am a little ahead of the game although I have missed two days since then. I'm walking 3 miles most days and doing Level 1 of the shred. I take a break from one or the other every few days because its kicking my butt!

    After day one and two I HURT! My glutes were on fire! I had to use my arms to get out my chair at work! I think it was around day 4 they stopped hurting. Now after day 7 (I think) of level 1 I am finally feeling like there has been improvement.

    I find it really hard to motivate to do it (even though its only 20 minutes) but once I do it I feel good (that is - after I've stopped). I try to do it as soon as I get home from work otherwise I get on the couch and its all over!

    One thing that frustrates me (and I am watching the DVD on a bluray) is that it takes about five minutes of the DVD to get to the starting point of the exercise and I cant fast forward or skip any of the intro! Anyone else have this problem?

    Day 5 complete. Not sore anymore, but still feeling the burn. I did 100 jumping jacks at the end again.

    I log it as circuit training, since that is essentially what you are doing. That is the only thing I could find.

    Completed my 4th day and it was hard!!!!!!:sad: I`m putting more effort into the strength exercises, but the cardio is still the bane of my life!!!!!!!! I`m not going to finish the Shred by the end of November but will have made it to Level 2 (take a look, it`s hilarious!!:laugh: ) and will, hopefully have completed the entire 30 days by Christmas. Haven`t lost any weight this week :grumble: but am waiting til I`ve completed the first level to see if there`s any change in my measurements!:noway:

    Rest day today! Focus on making good choices with food today. We have a trip to Red Lobster planned so I'll have to really investigate the menu.

    I wanna join too!! I have had this video for a while, and keep saying I'm going to do it for real (this time)! I think 5 days was the most I ever made it. I know it is a little late, but better late than never...right?! :)

    You guys are doing great. If you take a rest day get in some good stretching. Maybe check out Jillian's Yoga DVD. Great job on the first week.

    Decided to take advantage of the extra hour lol since I didn't get to spend it sleeping...Got day 6 done, though I'm rethinking to late doing this before work lol.

    Day 2 done. I had to take 3 days rest to recover from day 1. I was so sore and stiff!! But I did notice that today was somewhat easier. I didn't have to take too many breaks.

    BTW, how are you guys entering the workout into the exercise logs?

    Day 7 complete. It was a bit harder then I thought as I'm a little hungover today, but I did it! I still did my 100 jumping jacks afterwards, but I couldn't muster up the energy to do anything else today. I'll have to push myself a bit harder tomorrow. :happy:

    Moving into the new lab and standard time really put a halt on my 4 mile runs everyday. So I pulled out my wife's 30 day shred DVD on the 3rd, just finished day 4. I'm going to try and not take a rest during the 30 days since it's only 20 minutes, I'll keep this thread tagged to see everyone else progress!

    Well ladies, I have been doing the 30 day shred for a bit, off and on, but haven't had time since I joined the group. I plan to try to make time tomorrow. I need the motivation to stick to it every day for a week or 2 so I can see what it does for me. Maybe then I will want to continue it on a day to day basis. I just have such a hard time staying motivated. I WANT to be in those skinny jeans, and in that bikini but am so unmotivated and I do not know why. I mean 30 mins a day is not too much to do but we are just so busy that I am barely home long enough to get it in.

    Day 6 for me. Those arm raises and lateral lunges are the only thing keeping me from moving on. They kill me....something to be cautious about. I had been squeezing my shoulders up to my ears when I was doing that....when I relaxed I felt it much more in my arms and a lot less in my neck...don't need any big man muscle neck now do we?

    I just finished Day 8! My legs are constantly sore, not aching but I'm very aware of them at all times. I just cheated and watched the level 2.... it looks a lot harder then level 1. I hope I'm up for it!

    Day 4 level 1 done.. feeling it today. Had a hectic weekend and wasn't able to fit it in. Thurs was my last workout. Feels like day 1 again :(

    Need to stick with this!

    Great job on everyone for being so dedicated. It's pushing me forward!
