    I'm starting this tomorrow since the schedule does work with my life schedule.

    Day one complete!!

    I do have a question about the schedule, what is the "Quick Trouble Zones" about? Do we only do part of it?

    I had a quick look and found out that QUICK TROUBLE ZONES = NMTZ w/ no floorwork HTH

    Thinking of starting this myself, I get bored if I do the same workout everyday so this seems like a good plan!

    Thanks! Yes, I've been rotating through my JM DVDs and was still getting bored, so this should help! :)

    Day 2 is finally complete (I was so not motivated this morning!). Looking forward to NMTZ tomorrow, I always feel so strong after that one! :)

    I started it when the last group started, but I fell off the wagon for about four days...then I decided to go in and change it up, and add some things to it in order to tailor it to my needs.

    It's a great schedule, though! I HATE BFBM, though...it kicks my butt :(

    I was camping all weekend and with the crazy weather I didn't have any space to get my work in. Today will be my Day 3. I know it's going to be tough but I love the way NMTZ leaves a nice burn in my arms!

    Day 3 complete! It was definitely hard to get motivated today, but I did it!

    Yesterday was totally rough to get done! But I did it too- and boy was it tough! What did you think of the 2 minutes straight in plank! The twists then the toe taps- HOLY COW! I had to take a break but my goal is to hold it the whole time by the end :)

    I actually did D4 this morning and I am so happy to be done. I'm now thinking of doing another dvd because I feel so good. Maybe 6 week 6 pack...

    The 2 minutes of plank kill me every time! I have been rotating this DVD into my workouts for a couple months so I can hold it the whole time, but my arms are still dying at the end!

    I'm waiting until tonight to do day 4, I usually have much more motivation to workout in the evening...

    Day 4 is finished!! It almost seemed too easy though! I'm kind of dreading BFBM tomorrow...

    The thing with the 30 DS- it's as hard as you make it. I find myself not getting as deep into a lunge or a squat as I can- that's when it gets harder again. I definitely agree about not looking forward to BFBM tomorrow- especially because it's Friday and I will have not motivation! I will want to hit the bars right after work. Gotta work on me first!

    I definitely agree it can be as hard as you make it, but for me I feel I can make the strength and abs more difficult, but level 1 of the cardio doesn't really take it out of me, if it were a little longer maybe.... Next time I am definitely continuing the cardio moves while she's talking!

    Day 5 finished! I almost turned it off half-way through, but didn't because then I didn't want to post that here!! Great accountability! :)

    Anyone still doing to the slim down? I'm still going strong. Sunday was my rest day but I ended up getting a nice run/walk in. It was nice to get outside and not in front of the tv.

    I like the workouts- I know I'm getting stronger but I'm not losing any lbs. I'm going to have to measure inches again. I want to see the scale budge but it's stuck between 165-167.

    I'm trying some new things with my diet. Hopefully that'll turn things around!

    I'm still doing it! I restarted over around day 8 I think, so I'm behind. And I'm adding a few gym days, plus strength training days.

    I still hate BFBM. Just can't get into it, even though it's an amazing work out. Probably why I don't like it haha
