    Hi

    I do mine in the evenings when littleperson has gone to bed. I did Day 1 yesterday and it wasn't so bad. I'm using 1kg weights because I'm a bit of a light-weight but I don't want muscles I just want to be toned.

    I don't ache today but last time I did 11 days before having to stop due to a bad running injury so I'd got to Level 2 (which was a killer).

    Anyway starting measurements for me were

    Weight 131
    Neck 14
    Bust 34
    Waist Above 32.5
    Waist Below 34
    Hips 36
    Thigh (avg) 20.5
    Upper Arm (avg) 10

    Good luck everyone :flowerforyou:

    Well I don't feel too sore today, which has worried me. Maybe I'll push myself a little bit harder tonight.

    Does anyone else worry that they aren't doing the exercises right? I'm rubbish at lunges - especially the side ones, it's like my legs wont do what I want them to. I have to really focus on not letting my knee go over my toes, I also don't think I do ab crunches properly...

    I forgot to post my stats:

    Weight: 146.5lb
    Under bust: 32.5
    Natural waist: 29
    Belly button: 32.5
    Hips: 41
    Thighs: 24.5
    Bicep: 11.25
    Naval body fact: 30.7%

    Got in Day 1! I'm pushing myself, but trying not to over exert - I'm training for a half marathon and still need my legs to get me through running about 15 miles a week (plus walking the dog a few days of the week)!

    Anyone else HATE those sideways lunges at the end? They feel so awkward!

    Still waiting on my dvd arriving in the post, I checked the order and it was posted on Sunday so hopefully it will arrive in the next day or so. I can't wait to get started with you all - I'm super motivated just now and I want my DVD!

    L1 D2 Complete. Started out tough because I was sore from yesterday, but finished strong. Hope everyone is doing well.

    I had to literally grunt 'eeeuugghhhhh' as I was lifting the weights up towards the end. It was really tough!

    Starting to feel more and more sore as the day progresses....

    L1D2 done! I was already sore from yesterday and i started feeling the burn from the first 20 seconds of circut 1 to the very end. I struggled through and finished it (it wasn't particlarly pretty... i stopped to drink a few times), then imediately went out for a two mile walk. My legs are sore as hell, and i'm not sure if I'm going to be able to get out of bed to walk tomorrow...

    L1D4 done. A little extra challenging today as I usually do the video after the kids are in bed. I have tennis tonight so I wanted to get it in during the day. Probably got about 90% in between solving issues between the kiddos. It was kind of funny watching the 2 year old try to do the exercises though!

    Still feeling it.. The ab stuff is getting easier for sure!

    So. Incredibly. Sore.

    I don't know how I'm going to manage day 2!! I'm thinking I'll try to walk out the soreness in my legs for 30 minutes before I try 30DS today. My arms will just have to suffer. Have to try though! Wowza...ouchie.

    Well I did Level 1 every other day this last week, so hopefully now I am ok enough to actually start doing everyday and really start my 30 days! :happy: I did L1D1(like I said I feel I am now ready to start the 30 days so I started my count with last nights workout) last night and noticed a serious improvement in my ability to do all of it, especially the push ups so don't worry it gets easier!! I am still doing the modified push ups but I am able to keep up with the girls on the video now!! Lol hopefully I will keep going and look like them!!:wink: Good luck everyone!

    I just started the 30DS - today is day 3. And I am pleasantly surprised that 20ish mins can do so much! I feel tighter all over already.

    My only question is - what do I put it as in my exercise diary? Calasthenics (spelling? lol)? I want to make sure I'm calculating my burned calories correctly. Considering I'm sweating and panting within 2 mins I'm guessing vigarous effort - :)

    Day one down!

    This morning I weighed in at 133.6 and I am using my measurements from yesterday. Monday is normally my "official" weight and measurement day.

    Arms: 10 x 2 = 20inches
    Upper abs: 26.5 inches
    Lower abs: 31.5 inches
    Hips: 35.75 inches
    Thighs: 20.5 x 2 = 41 inches
    Chest: 32 inches

    Is anyone measuring their calves?

    These pics are from around June 1st.
