    I'm starting the 30 day shred today.... and am excited! To be fair, I will do a weigh in and measurements prior and then very likely at each week. I watched the first video and it looked a lot like the bootcamp class at my gym that I loved but can no longer attend because of school. As a side note, are you counting the calories as circuit training? I don't have a heart rate monitor but best guess would be 250-300 cals as 40 min at the gym was about 530. Will keep you posted!

    I count as circuit training; MFP says 243 cals are burned but my HRM only says 150 so I count it as that (I'm 5'8, 138 lbs). That I find is one of the biggest flaws of 30-ds is that you simply don't burn enough calories. I supplement my shred with 35 minute walks at lunch, fast pace so thats another 150 cals burned as well.

    I’m on to level 2 now and everyone says it’s the hardest level but I find it’s more unnatural and odd than hard. I don’t have to do low impact on anything (and in level one I do pushups on my knees, my only modified move). The plank jumping jacks are tough which is great but that move like others i.e. the very first move, bend to your toes crawl out pushup and back is just an unnatural movement, is just awkward. I feel it’s not working my body as efficiently as level 1 did.

    I am in - I am on day 3 of Level 1. It is already starting to get easier - and I found out that I can do about 5 pushups w/out the modification! Whoo-hoo!

    I really want to try this! I have 27 days before I have my baby, so I wont get through the whole thing, but I can probably get a good start on it. I own it but it's packed up in storage. :( Do they have it on OnDemand?? Otherwise I guess a trip to Target is in store for me today.
