    I'm halfway through Level 2. When I first started on Level 1 I could barely go down the stairs in the morning when I woke up and was that way for about four days. Just keep going as far as you can every day and before you know it you will be through the entire workout! You are not a failure!

    I do have one suggestion, after you are familiar with the moves and can concentrate on watching the TV while working out, turn off the volume on the TV!!!!!!! and turn on your ipod! I have to admit when the workout starts getting intense I can't stand listening to her! and the music makes it much more bearable!!!!!

    The main thing is you did try that is the first step. Jillian doesn't play around. When I first did 30-day shred, I had to take many breaks, but by the end, I could do it without any breaks. Just keep doing it!! You will get stronger and your endurance will increase. Even if you can only do 10 mins for a week or so, atleast you are trying. Keep it up!!! Jillian will give you great results, trust me.

    If you have to go way slower, or do fewer reps to get through the whole thing, then do so. Maybe don't push as hard and then you can finish the entire workout, then the next day try a little harder, and a little harder! Until you are able to push at your max and make it through the entire time!

    Great job starting it out - I don't read this as a failure at all!

    The first day is by far the worst! My legs were sore for 4 days (like I could barely walk up and down the stairs kinda sore, it was bad) but it was much better the 2nd time, and kept getting better after that. Just try to stick it out through the whole workout next time, and keep moving forward! I'm glad I started with the 30-day shred at home, now that I take fitness classes at my gym I can keep up when they do jumping jacks and jump rope!
