    Hey 30DS Budddies.. Hope everyone is doing great.. I know most of you have to be sore cause I know I am and it's only day 2.. Woooo My quads and hamstring is killing me, but we must push forward only 28 days to go:smile:

    My quads and hammies are feeling it, but are mostly ok. My pectorals and biceps on the other hand...man. Those arm raises with the weights and especially the push-ups are brutal (I can only do the girl kind :blushing: )

    I do feel weak after.. but as the day goes on it gets better... I am not as sore as I think some people are.. but i have a really had time with the weight exercises standing up more than anything.. I always seem to struggle the most there...

    On a happier note... not only did I do 30ds... and kicked butt today .. but I also did 45 min of Zumba!! I feel great!

    Once you do the 30DS for a week I believe, (I had the same problem being sore) maybe 2 at the most, but after that you aren't so sore from it. I'm currently on Level 2 and its harder than Level 1.

    Are you all starting with Level 1? How's everyone doing on this other than being sore?? Are you enjoying it or find it to be too much?

    Okay girls I'm a little scared to do the video today- my body is retaliating big time. I'll just have to work my way through. I hope another couple of days and it won't be so bad. Best of luck to all!:smile:

    Day 4 down - 26 to go. What size weights are you all using? I know that she says to use either 5 or 8 lb., but on some of the moves even the 5 lb. are too heavy right now. I mix it up between 3 and 5 lbs. I'm sure I'll be able to ramp up the weight once I've been doing it for a while, but I just don't seem to have much upper body strength.

    so, I had to take a break Tuesday and Wednesday (my father in law was staying at our house and took over my work out area), but I just did my day two, and I can say that I don't feel nearly as sore or shaky as I was on day one. Interesting... :)

    If its not to late I would like to Join in on all the fun. I ve tried to do the 30DS but at level 2 I lost motivation. With the help and support of others I think I can try to complete this goal. I have 8 lb weights and I will start tonight on Level 1

    If I remember right, one her dvd set, it comes with weights, mat, and the dvd (I've seen at walmart once) it came with 3 lb weights inside, so you're good. I use 3 lb weights...I tired my 5 and about died!!

    Oh yep cool...Yeah i think when i first started it i was always wondering if she would say what size to use. Might get some heavier ones one day and hopefully in a couple weeks we may be needing them

    I did Day 5 today (I got excited and started Sunday), much easier! Day 4 I wasn't as sore and today was even better. I'm doing level 3 with 5lb weights, but I'm definitely having to do Anita's modified moves for some things!
