    I am on day 3..... I watched level 2, looks like I could handle it with some modified moves.... a couple scare me though..... :)
    I work out with a trainer on Tuesday mornings, and that wipes me out til Thur morning, so I plan to get 5 days of shred in a week, I even got my hubby into it- he likes it so far!

    I was planning on starting the Shred on the 4th(1st Monday in April) and just doing it Monday-Friday, so that puts me finishing around May 13th, but I would really like to join this group, what do I need to do?

    Whoo hoo! I'll start a Forum post tomorrow and we'll do one every day to keep everyone engaged.

    If you are in the middle or whatever, feel free to post with your experience and encouragement as well. Definitely an open group.

    Just a word of advice. I have seen it before when someone tried to do a new post every day and nobody could ever find it, and people were posting on the wrong day, and I do NOT want 30 posts cluttering up the "My Topics" area.:grumble:

    Please just continue this thread for the whole 30 days, the title is perfect already. :flowerforyou:

    Aloha,
    I'm in South Africa and hav only recently heard of this 30 day shred. Any idea on where I can get a copy? I've read so many comments and it seems like a good idea. I hav 3 boys under the age of 5 and can't really do any exercise outside the house. This seems to be a good solution.
    Would so love to join in on the challenge, but am stuck as I don't know where to get the dvd.
    Plz help...?
    Nice day to all!!!

    I'm in as well!

    I started this a couple of years ago and never got to level 2. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to be doing it every single day or not and was afraid I'd hurt myself! I went on to something else but here I am still trying to get rid of these unwanted pounds.

    I'm anxious to get started! I'll get "before" photos done today so I'll be ready to post tomorrow.

    I agree...let's just keep this thread going for the 30 days...don't start a new one. :flowerforyou:

    I just picked up this dvd 2 days ago and I thought about starting it to in April. I am leaving on vacation for 4 days (at end of month) so that might put a little damage on me for total results. I want to join this group if you all don't mind. I am not very good at posting on here yet and my way around these boards.

    Okay - sounds like we've got a great group here! As requested, we'll keep this forum rather than starting a new one every day. :)

    We are going to do it everyday - no rest days. The workouts are only 20 minutes, so getting them done every day shouldn't be difficult. If you need to rest, then rest but I think the goal for everyone should be every day for 30 days.

    It is my understanding that the program recommends you do each level for 10 days. I think that everyone is different and should adjust their workouts according to what they need. If you spend the entire month on Level 1 - that's great! At least you did 20 minutes a day of activity, right? So, adjust as you need to and just let everyone know where you're at and how you're feeling.

    Today is Pre-Challenge Day! Make sure you have your copy, hand weights, and a water bottle. Please post Pics, Measurements, and Weight either today or before your first workout so we can compare where we start to how we end. I'd love to do a mid-way check in, too!

    Here are my starting digits (photos can be seen on my profile):

    Weight 185
    Neck 14
    Lt Arm 14
    Rt Arm 14
    Bust 42
    Waist 35
    Hips 42
    Lt Thigh 25.5
    Rt Thigh 25.5
    Lt Calf 16
    RT Calf 16

    Admittedly, I'm a little nervous. I watched a few minutes of the program and it looks kinda intimidating! But, I'm ready to kick this bad boy into gear and try to get over my month long plateau.

    HERE WE GO!!! =)

    Awesome! I'm going to take before pictures tonight, as well as measurements. The dvd and a tape measure are coming tonight. :) Pics will be on my profile.

    Oh, and the dvd is on sale at Target for $9. Wish I would've known that before I bought it on amazon. I don't mind the extra 99 cents, but it's always nice to just have it instead of waiting for a package. Worst case, my cable has Level 1 on demand.

    I'm definately in. I started it last month but never finished. This month I'm determined to do the whole 30 days. I'll post weight and measurements tonight.

    I'm totally in! I'll have to buy it on my way home from the gym tonight, and then take a pic and measurements when I get home! :)
    I'm running a 1/2 marathon at the end of the month, so I may have to skip the last couple days, but until then, it should be a great addition to my running!
    WOO HOO!!!!

    I'd love to join you all! I joined a challenge for Lent, but seem to be the only one posting recently...:cry:

    I was going to start on Level 3 tomorrow, as part of the challenge, so I'll still do that (fool that I am - I've just had a sneaky peek!!!), then start back at level 1 after 10 days.

    I work in a school, so I break up next week until 26th April. We're only back for 3 days then off again for the Royal Wedding and a Bank Holiday!!!! :bigsmile: So with all that time on my hands, I will have no excuses!!!!!

    I'll post my starting weight and measurements tomorrow. I'll also get one of my daughters to take a before piccie! :sad:
