    I'm losing track of days already! What day did I just finish? I think it was 4... Anyone else starting to feel different? The workouts are slightly easier especially since I'm not nearly as sore now but some times I feel a new muscle. I had my hand on my calf and was like "What the he'll is that!?" LOL! I had them before but now they're harder. So ya, pretty cool stuff!

    I did L1D1 yesterday and plan on sticking to it all July. I used 3 pound weights - feel it in my legs but not my arms. Wondering if I should use 5 pounds or keep up as I am for a few days. When do you switch weights? and when do you move up to the next level?

    jmho, move up to the 5 lb weights and see what happens. i think you should be mildly sore (pain is different). i know adding the extra pounds is making it much more difficult for me.

    The official program is 10 days at each level. level 2 is different,,,,less actual weights, more of supporting your own bodys weight.

    Didn't get any sort of exercise on Thursday because I work in accounting and had to spend the day doing the billing that the project managers should have been turning in all month (I usually walk during lunch) and because I was heading out right after work and was out all night. I caught some sort of stomach nastiness so I took yesterday off as well. Back on this morning with L1D5. It wasn't as bad as I was expecting. I actually managed to use the weights the whole time, though my arms were on fire by the time the side lunges were over.

    Im going to start on the 4th. My intention was to start earlier, but it's to hectic with company being here and not being home all that much. I will be using 5 lb weights since that is what I already have and didn't want to go out and buy something different. These posts are very inspiring, so keep posting! I look forward to joining you all on the 4th!! Keep up the good work :bigsmile:

    I did L1Day2 this afternoon. I decided to take my rest day yesterday and woke up this morning and got it done. I will do day 3 on the July 4th. Tomorrow is my C25K day. I am loving doing this program again.

    As for the lunges, I still hate them. The 1st time I did the shred, I had to do the lunges without the weights, I just couldn't do them. This time, I am using the weights.

    Is it just me or are the ab exercises easier when they are put into the routine like Jillian has them? I have always hated abs, but doing them for 1 minute at the end of each circuit, I find them easier. I actually like them because I get to catch my breath while lying on the ground... :)

    Hello, can I join in please?

    I have just finished L1 Day 2, those side lunges with forward raises are KILLA.
    I am using 2kg weights.

    I am determined to do it 30 days straight. I have printed off a July Calendar and stuck it to the fridge - every day that I complete, a big red cross goes through it.

    Good luck everyone xx

    I just finished D1 L1. Feel very wobbly at the moment! When I finished the workout, I felt slightly sickly but now I feel pretty nauseous though. Took a bath which helped. I was wondering if it wears off because being nauseous and feeling sickly every day is not my idea of fun after a workout. I'm not that keen on the jumping jacks, skipping or the lunges. I'm definitely feeling sore. 29 more days to go.
