    Just I want to know the weights she uses ... how many lbs is each ?

    I beleive they are 3lb weights, but you can use any size, it's up to you. I use 5lbs, 3lbs and 2lbs depending on the movement.

    I'm in!! Started last night. I am also doing C25K. I am going to be doing week 3, day 1 tonight. I am going to try and do it everyother day as well. I am also doing Biggest Loser on the Wii. Has anyone done Biggest Loser on the Wii? Right now I have it set to 3 times a week on the moderate level. It's not too bad.

    Does anyone know where to get the free MP3 files to use for the C25K that tell you when to walk/run? That would be great!!! I don't have an ipod, I just use my Blackberry.

    It depends on your taste in music, but the ones I see people mention most often are available on the following sites:

    Correction: waist (lower) is 38 not 34... Lol wishful typing I guess.

    ALL IN ALL GREAT SECOND DAY... Still extremely sore, but I can deal with it. A determined & motivated woman like myself never gives up because of a little pain. :-) anything worth obtaining is NEVER easy!!

    SOOO LET'S SHRED IT FOlKS. HAPPY DAY 2 TO ALL.

    Don't think off it that way, think like you are about to burn some calories and get toned up :)

    Is anyone else doing C25K also? I am and am wondering how everyone is working that in? Are you doing both on the same day or alternating? I did do both on Friday, I just spaced them out.

    I'm on week 5 of C25K. I'm planning to try to do 30DS every day, doing both that and C25K every other day. We'll see how that goes though... depends on how sore the 30DS makes me!! ;)

    That's my plan as well! We'll see how tomorrow goes!

    I'm on D17 of the Shred, so I can't really join the group, but I am on W3 of the C25K and I've been doing both for 3 days a week. I'll do the Shred first and then go run. It's nice b/c then I'm already warmed up! It can be killer on the legs and butt b/t the squats and running right after though. You can do it!

    I don't think anyone like jumping jacks. I did when I was younger, i though it was cool. but now that I am older, forget about it, but I do them because I have to and it's great cardio. :0)

    Day 2 wasn't that bad. But that stupid knee warmup in the beginning i will not be doing. Eveytime i do it i can hear my kneecap crunching and crackling, but i know it's not a good thing, so i will do other knee warmups, if there such things for people with bad knees. I did all the jumping jacks NO modification. But does side lunges with the lifting of the weights to your eyes, my shoulders are burning, i had to decrease my weights as well (bad shoulders). all in all awesome workout.

    Funny thing was, as soon as I got into the workout, it was over and I was kind of sad about it. But then i think i will be doing it again tomorrow.
    Hope eveyone had a productive day :)

    WOW! Day 2 was rough! I really planned on getting on the treadmill after to do Week 3 Day 1 of C25K, but just couldn't bring myself to do it. I'm guessing it will get easier in a few days???

    Have you tried splitting your workout, in the am do 30DS and in the evening run or visa versa, just a thought :)

    Wow finished day 2 like an hour ago (a bit late in the night but better than never) and I feel like it was just enough to be hard but not to the point where youre struggling to keep going. I know I'm gonna be a bit sore tomorrow which sucks cause it's my gym day. With all this talk of C25K it sounds like I should dust off the ap and give it a whirl. =]

    Great job everyone for keeping it up! First week is where I always poop out.

    I did day 1 yesterday morning with 1 lb weights. I woke up today and every single muscle in my body is sore !!

    I'm realy motivated to do day 2 + planning to have a half an hour jogging as usual. But is it OK to do day 2 with this sore?
