30 day shred 1/22 (closed group)

CricketKate

Back in town. Pretty sure I gained, even with trying to be good. :grumble: Got to get back on track.

How was your trip? Welcome back!

CricketKate

I was trying to do day 2 of level 2 yesterday. When I was in the plank position, my little 4 year old came and flung herself at my leggs, taking out my right knee. I think I'm goint to give it a break today.

Have a good day, Everyone!

I had a crazy week (I've worked 99 hours in the last 2 weeks) buuut I completed L1 D10 of the shred today! I will move up tomorrow!

CricketKate

:ohwell: Just checking in. My knee is still really hurting me, so I haven't been shredding. Now I'm scared to start up again. I think that I will take the rest of the weekend off and then try to restart on Monday. Is anyone else still out there?:ohwell:

My first day of L2, holy planks batman. My arms are going to hate me!

I did L2D1 yesterday. My shoulders are screaming today! It feels like starting over from the beginning.
But I'm still in!

CricketKate

I tried to go back to level 1 since I've been away from it for a few days. My knee gave out during the first set of squats. :grumble:

Take care of yourself! :flowerforyou:

L2D2 done. I am not dead.:laugh:

Those of you on Level 2, are you able to do all of the moves? Which ones do you motify?

I have to lower the knee lifts, and I can't do all of the shoulder "V" raises (or whatever they are). Mostly I am a lot slower than what is happening on screen, especially on the walk out push ups. I think I do one for every 2 of theirs! I will judge my progress by how close I am to Jillian's timing. I'm gasping and sweating, so I think I am working hard even with the modifications.

CricketKate

I did Level 2 for the second time today. I feel like I am modifying everything. I can do the walk outs, but not the push ups.

I know this says closed group, but it looks like most people dropped out anyway. I am only on level one so I am behind you all, but it would be nice to have a group to chat with about the workouts.

Hang in there Kate! I think it would take me doing the whole DVD a few times before I don't have to modify most of it. It just gives a longer life to the usefulness of the workout!

As far as I am concerned, come on in. We seem to have lost a few! Anyone have a concern with this?

Welcome! I have felt bad about those that we have lost. The more the merrier!

I had to modify a lot too. I have very little upper body strength so the plank pose is hard for me on it's own.

L2D3 done! Sweating like crazy! This one does seem to get to my knees a bit more than L1 did.

Level 1 day 4 finished last night. For some reason my knee always hurts a lot when I wake up in the morning. By the time I go to do the video though (I usually do it at 8 or 9 at night) it doesn't hurt anymore. I tried not doing all of the jumping jacks last night and my knee is not as sore this morning.

CricketKate

L2, D2: Done

I'm back to hating that woman again. Maybe that's a good sign that it's working?:laugh:

I'm in the same boat. haha. I just keep telling myself it will get easier

L2D4 done! My son has done it with me the past 2 days, which is pretty awesome. Had to ease up on parts because my knees were screaming! My bad knees are really acting up more. :grumble: But I finished drenched in sweat again, so I must still be getting a good workout!

Finished level 1 day 5! Anyone else doing something other than the 30 day shred? I am also doing the couch to 5k program.

CricketKate

L2, D3: Done!!!

Now I just have to find the time to hit the dreadmill.

I usually try to do some walking/jogging or some elliptical (If I can get to the gym).

ouryear002

L2D5 done! Whew! I usually walk on the treadmill for 25-30 minutes during my lunch break at work also.

I skipped yesterday, but will be shredding again today. Is anyone else still doing this or posting on here?

CricketKate

I'm also still here. I din't get to it yesterday. I had to go to the dentist and I decided I couldn't handle seeing the dentist and Jillian Michaels all in the same day. Actually that is just what I told myself, I really just didn't time my day correctly. I'm hoping to get to it today.

ouryear002

L2D6 done!

CricketKate

L2D6 done!

Good Job! I missed it again yesterday, and I don't think that I'll get to it today. I just have too much to do with all for kids home right now.

Thanks! I made my son do it with me again, so I wouldn't skip it. Do what you can when you can. Unfortunately, that crazy woman on the DVD isn't going away! :laugh:
