    I just finished day one of level one. Yeah! I made it! I also took my measurements and did a before picture. All my pre-30ds apprehension is gone. I'm ready for this! Good luck everyone!

    Just finished Level 1 Day 3. Im finding the workout goes much faster now, but I still have problems with the lunge/weight lift "to your eyes" maneuver. I decided, for now, to use 3 lb weights for that. My 5 lb weights are too much for that one yet. Other than that, I think things are going well. :smile: Keep up the good work, everyone! You're the ones that keep me going :heart:

    This may have been answered but I can't find it. Under exercise when I am recording what I have done, what do I count shred as? Cardio? Weights etc?? how many mins for each? I am doing only 1 level per day..

    I have done the shred in the past and made it about halfway through, but then daylight savings hit and I couldn't force myself to get up an extra hour early to do it. I'm back now and ready to complete all 30 days. Even though I was only halfway through, I was seeing changes in my body, so for those of you who question the results, don't worry you'll see them.

    Today was L1D2. I lost my ability to do the amount of push ups I had been able to do before, so I have to work on that. For the side lunges with anterior raise, if you have a 5lb weight and its just too heavy, hold one weight with both hands. It's still hard, but it makes it less impossible (and you don't have to go buy more weights).

    Happy shredding!

    Just finished day 1 level 1! I've been doing Body Pump for 2 months and working out 6 days a week since March... and the cardio portions still kicked my bum.

    Edit: Feel free to friend me! Always looking for fellow weight loss friends.

    I did L1Day6 this morning and I'm really finding my endurance is much better. My calves aren't quite as sore - but still let me know they're there!!

    I have completed L1D7 and the side lunges, jumping jacks and modified push ups are still killing me. However, I can do way more than I could do before I started. This is a great 20 minute workout because I am already seeing the results with myself and my hubby who is doing it with me.

    I'M LOVING THE WAY I AM SHREDDING!!!

    I just have to say that I love all the husbands that are shredding!!! I can't get mine into the idea. He is very supportive though and tells me how proud he is of me everyday.

    No shred for me today. I did ny C25K this afternoon. I am looking forward to tomorrow's shred.

    I wish my hubby would do it with me! you're so lucky!

    I'm on day 4 today. Today I went into walmart and tried on a shirt, when i took my shirt off and looked at my ribcage area and i'm already seeing results. i'm hoping it's not just mental though lol

    Finished L1D6 today! And it is definitely getting easier! Plus I am starting to see muscles in my arms and my arms and waist area are shrinking, plus I can feel the muscles in my legs more too! I am really hoping to get the results people have gotten with the shred in the past!

    I finished Level 3/day 3 this morning. I do not like level 3. Level 2 is my favorite. I'm noticing some good results - both on the scale and the measuring tape. I also noticed today that my shoulders & biceps are getting more defined. :bigsmile:

    I decided to go back & try level one tonight to see if it was any easier, since I've been going 24 days straight! Anyway - the cardio is still pretty intense & I'm glad to hit the floor for the abs still! However for the first time I was able to do the bicycle crunches the entire time!!! I got to 41! Woohoo! :bigsmile:

    Stick with it everyone - you'll be glad you did!

    but its another day closer to being shredded! and i can certainly feel like its working which makes it easier to switch that dvd on every day!

    I just decided this morning to try the day 1 on the on demand and it was great (didn't think that DURING, but now that I'm eating my oatmeal, I feel better, lol) I thought it was a great workout. Since I don't have the DVD, I didn't get an intro, so I have a question or two:

    Are you supposed to do level one every day, until you feel you can move up?

    Can anyone give me an idea of how many calories are burned, if you do mostly the high intensity moves? I weigh 150 lbs, I'm 5'7". I don't have a HRM yet, so I'm not sure what to log.

    Thanks!

    I am using 5lb weights that I have from my first round at losing weight a few years back. They do feel heavy at first but the more you use them the lighter they feel.

    Today was my first day. I got started late but I will stick to it for the next 29 more days!

    10 days of level 1, 10 days of level 2, 10 days of level 3. no breaks - thats the idea anyway.

    30 days to be shredded!

    i dont have a HRM either. i had read on here to log it as circuit training, general for 20 mins. that marks me down for 221 calories burned but i have read people with HRM's saying their actually calorie burn was higher or lower than that so i guess thats just an estimate.

    keep at it!

    L1D2 last night + a feeble attempt at day one with the C25K. I got halfway through C25K before my knee gave out on me and I decided that slipping off the treadmill, crashing through a window and landing two stories down onto the street totally wasn't worth the last 10 minutes. Le sigh. Maybe tonight. Maybe.

    gd50cent: I invited my husband to try 30DS with me last night-- and it was a no go. He said he wouldn't want to embarass me by beasting through the workout but I believe he was a little intimidated by the fact that Jillian's calf muscles are bigger than his head. LOL.

    Ok, I've done level 1 for 4 1/2 days so far this month - I tried using 5 lb weights yesterday but couldn't finish the last 6 minute circuit. Bummer. Then, I got so mad at myself for that that i went out and did yardwork for 3 hours in 90 degree heat. Now I'm really too sore to do anything today. We'll see how I feel tonight, otherwise right back at it tomorrow.
