    Let me ask you guys a question ...

    Do you do anything else besides JM in a day??? I've already started Wii Active 2 9 week challenge - would it be impossible for me to keep on schedule with both routines?? I'm going out and grabbing the DVD today, so I'm in! Just wondering if it would be too much!

    By the way, I forgot how much I loved getting in shape!! I think I'm just trying to prepare myself for some JMs butt kickin!! LOL

    For those of you that just started (and experienced), I've never done JMs before ... how is it???

    Hey everybody!! I completed 30DS in June and moved on to Ripped in 30- I haven't been all that on target as I started running and found I really enjoyed it! I do however need to get back some strength training in there so I was going to start Ripped again. I will start at the beginning. I am going on vacation 8/1-8/4 so I won't be able to start until Friday 8/5.
    I will start will 5lbs weights and see if by the end of each week I can't get to 8lbs- we'll see!

    i love jm workotus, def worth the money! she is one tough cookie! and the workouts are intense even though they are so short and very effective! but thats why i like them- i get bored with long workouts . i did c25k whilst i was shredding so yeah it would be ok to continue with other stuff too.

    pizzygirltx-most of us in this group are just finishing (or have just finished the shred), what do you think about ripped so far vs the shred??

    Kory-good plan...I never thought about that!! i was planning on starting on a Wed...but i have really got to think about which day I want off...it will be either Tues (which is where it would be starting the 24th) or I would want it on Fri!! so hmmmm....do I want it on my 3rd 12 hour shift day for the week or do i want it on the weekend?! toughy...I will decide ASAP as keepya posted...maybe starting on a diff day though!!

    saradas-welcome to the group!

    SDV-i just finsihed 30/30 on the shred...and I know that personally I would not be able to do 2 back to back JM routines every day for 30 days straight!!! you could always give it a try and see...otherwise a lot of the people in the shred group did OTHER workouts to supplement the shred! i personally did 30 outta 30 on the shred, 1 day of yaga per week, and walked 6-8 miles on my 3 work nights each week...that was it!! I am close to my goal weight...but my results were a GAIN of 1.4lbs and a LOSS of 6"!! JM is one tough cookie, and I loved every minute of it!

    Thanks for the input!! I'm gonna take a peek at RI30 now to see what it entails ... I'm hoping to keep on track with the other stuff too. I am only starting one JM ... wouldn't want to over do it!!

    Welcome to all of the new people and nice to see people getting started. Just did my first day of ripped in 30...I am thankful that I did the 30DS first because OMG! I burned 401 calories tonight! I was burning around 260-280 on lvl 3 of the 30DS! WOOWEE!

    For those that have just joined us, please read my first post to see how the group works and welcome onboard!

    I try to do an extra 30-45 minutes of my Elliptical or jogging 5 days a week...just depends on how busy my nights are. I didn't do it so much during the 30DS and I think that caused me to stall on my weight loss. When I added it back in, I slowly started losing again.

    Please remove your start date and post what day you last updated your level/day completed...this way we can tell who is still ripping it up with us!

    Yeeeee! Level1 Day 1 done! Unfortunately I don't have a HRM so I will just keep logging it under circuit training and just hope it's approximately accurate! So far I love ripped in 30! Level 1 was definitely harder than the Level 1 in 30 DS but doable! I love the energy of Jillian and I for myself don't mind her "badass" attitude. I read before that people didn't like her screaming at you but it helps me. Excited to see how I can push myself this time!
    I'm perfectly happy with having my day off on Sundays because I usually clean on this day anyway and so far I have been doing it sore and tired so maybe that'll change now :)

    L1D1 done! It was really hard getting up this morning. It's been a couple of months since I did the shred and sad to say I've let myself go a little since. I've still been exercising but not nearly as much as I was when I did the shred. That's changing starting today! I'm hoping to get a jog in a couple days a week plus to ripped 5-6 times a week. Football starts tonight for my son so it's going to be hard to juggle everything. That's why getting up early is the best option for now.
    I didn't burn as many calories as I thought I was going to today. Only 155 and I felt like it was a lot more. I'm wondering if my HRM is working correctly. Either way I got a great workout this morning. Can't wait to feel it later :laugh:

    is everyone doing 6 days out of 7 for the RI30? i'll probably go with 6 days with 1 rest day if i can but may not stick to the same day off each week as i have a few things happening in august so would be beneficial to be flexible with my day off.

    took things a bit easier over the weekend - took a day off on friday and sunday - so i'll be glad to get straight back into a routine - seems to work better for me!

    looking forward to checking out level 1 later tonite so i'll probably stick my face in later and update the list then. :smile:

    GD-doing 6 days, taking Saturdays off here (took Friday and Saturday off too! almost felt guilty, so helped me get started on RI30 last night :huh: )

    Erica-What was your average heart rate? Mine was 160, but my HR monitor had me burning 401 calories. I am hoping it wasn't a glitch...it was the first day...will find out more tonight.

    I really like it that it does 3-30 sec strength moves instead of 1-30 sec and 1-1min move...

    just updating as ive not started yet and the list has me at level one day one! oopsie!

    right so, im trying to take it easy on myself this month but not too much. Im on maintainance but my goals are mainly fitness focussed now rather than weight related. either way, my plan is to do RI30 3days a week and run after or vice versa and zumba once a week. so its not going to be 30 days straight. so will prob be taking 3 rest days. currently training for 5k as well!

    Took me a day to recover from L1D1!!! I have now completed L1D3- can NOT commit to saying I can do it everyday b/c *kitten* happens- but I'm certainly dedicated to doing more on days than off per week!!

    Love that my thighs and butt have started to understand that they are going to get an a** kicking over the next month:)

    I've been using 10 lb for the first two circuits, but then have to go to 5 lb for the last circuit- but thats ok with me!!!

    good luck to everyone & so glad I have this board b/c i was trying to come up with excuses at 6am to NOt work-out, then i remembered all of you!!! (CHEESE)

    Wow, that was definitely a more intense workout then I had imagined! I started out with the 3 pound weights, and let me just say that my arms were BURNING!!! I was sweating all over by 10 minutes in! I'm interested to see what 30 days is going to bring to me. I too plan on doing 6 days with Sunday being my rest day! It seems crazy intense, but I'm going for it 100% ... got nothing to lose but the weight!! ;)

    Today was already easier (day 2)...can use the 8# dumbbells for everything except for the the last two raises on circuit 3 (drop to 3# for those)...still can't do a full press push up, only do a 1/2 press for 1st round then have to change over to 'girly' push ups for round 2...but it's better than day 2 of the 30DS!.


    Also, thought it was funny that the plank hold is like a nice break after doing all of those plank moves in the 30DS...I was like SWEET! I can do this...what, I don't have to do mountain climbers while doing plank jacks??? :embarassed:

    MomofJandA-Glad to have you with us...see you on the 5th!

    Beccy-better late than never! Welcome to the group

    Evo-yeah, at first I didn't like how she acted in this video, but I think it is funny now...and I need to be pushed, otherwise I wouldn't be overweight as it is :)

    Maria--hey, I am just happy to have you continue with us on the journey! You blast so many calories as is, I am sure 3 days a week will be just fine...but you are just maintaining and toning now anyways, so I applaud you for sticking with it and not 'let yourself go' and fall back into old habits

    jojo-Hope I can get to the 10# in this 30 days...will have to go buy them, only had 3/5/8. Glad you kicked your excuses butt and did the routine this morning...if it wasn't for the 30DS group, then I wouldn't have gotten this far (thanks tjradd!)

    gd-yeah, I like this routine...mostly

    SDV--Got nothing to lose but the weight...and don't forget the fat! It's amazing what can happen in 30 days!


    Keep it up...starting is the hard part, now we just have to finish strong!

    Good Morning Everyone! L1D2 done! Ouch am I sore today! Almost didn't get up in time to workout. But that's my fault for trying to stay up to watch the bachelorette last night.
    I'm sticking with the 5# dumbells for now. I may need to get some 8# ones before the month is through but for right now I think it's sufficient.

    Kory my heart rate has been really low so far. I don't get up over 120 usually except for the running man. I know I need to work a little harder to get it up there but in the morning my heart rate is always really low to begin with.

    JoJo I can't wait to my thighs and butt realize it's time to get an *kitten* kicking! right now they are just begging me to take it easy. lol.

    Kory I think you're right, it was a lot easier already today. I like this Level 1 a lot better than the 30 day shred.
    TOM is visiting right now so I'm generally feeling a little bloated and uncomfortable but other than that I'm ready to get ripped!!
    Day 2 done!!

    I started RI30 last week and love it! Im stretching the weeks out to 2 though to give myself time to get stronger. Im starting week 2 Monday the 8th. Cant wait!

    kory: thanks missy! once u switch to maintainance you have to have something to keep you accountable. Exercise does that for me. the 'reward' of numbers going down on a scale no longer exist so you have to motivate yourself in other ways. getting toned and fit are the ones for me. I dont want to get any smaller as im happy being a uk size 8/10( us 4/6) and would like to keep my boobs and bum! if i lose anymore and those will disappear and my hubby will not be a happy bunny! lol! men! well done on the workouts! this thread is helpful to keep me in tune with whats about to come!

    sdv: its nice to know that u use the 3lbs as well! i do and good to know tht the workout is good. i briefly looked at the dvds and they look scary!

    des: we might be starting together! amazon ive found tend to be a little quicker with their deliveries but thats in the uk. not sure about the us.

    erica: wow! 8lbs! yikes, i think my arms would fall off! lol! Just a tip- the days i combined running and shredding- i ran first then shredded and burned loads as i was still pumped from the adrenaline rush you get from running! lol! not for everyone but worked for me!

    eva: yay for day 2!

    AFM: im still enjoying my 'rest week' no zumba for this week so will run three times and rest. Im off this week with my hubby and daughter and doing lots of day trips to park and beach etc!! lush weather for it too!

    Day 2 in the bag. Bought new weights today as the 2.5lbs weights we had in the house just weren't heavy enough for some moves. Got through to the start of circuit 3 with 7.7lb weights today but had to switch to 4.4lb to finish. But it felt good using heavier weights! Although I certainly feel like I've had a workout and a half!

    My day off RI30 this week is tomorrow as I'm up at 6.30am to go to work then heading out to a concert straight after work so won't be home til late and I'll be drunk by the time i get home anyway! Lol.

    erica--you must have better cardio conditioning than me, I stay around 160-180 for my heart rate and it averages around 155 (including the warm up/cool down) I use a Polar w/ chest strap. If you are winded during your routine, might want to spot check your heart rate by taking a carotid pulse and compare to make sure you don't need to change your batteries

    Shani-don't know if you were just popping in to say hi or if you were wanting to join the group for support...if you want to join us on this journey, please see my first post on how this list works and welcome on board!

    Evo--you too, huh? I think the 30DS shocked my body so it came back 2 days after I was done...with a vengence! :angry:

    gd--aww...I think you would be cute w/ little pink weights (oh, and don't forget the tutu) :bigsmile:
