    what's the different between the shred and the rip workout?

    It's more intense, although it has the same formula, I believe it is meant to follow on from the shred.

    I'll join :D I was planning to start it on Monday anyway so having a group of people who are doing it alongside me will be brilliant.
    Hopefully because you change the workout every week I won't get bored with it like I did with 30 day shred.
    I'm also going to try and go to the gym, continue with c25k and get some swimming in there too.

    Afterwards i'm planning on restarting Insanity because hopefully by then i'll be in better shape and able to do pushups.

    Can anyone suggest a set of things (!) to measure? I only did bust, waist and hips for the 30DS and wished I taken more. And another thing ... I've seen people giving measurements for waist and belly button separately. Aren't they in the same place? Have I misunderstood this all mylife? :laugh:

    I think changing levels weekly will keep it fresh and challeinging!

    The waist is the narrowest part...which for many, including me is not around the belly button!!

    How about adding thighs, calfs and arms? At widest point.

    I'm in- I need to do a lot of walking to train for the MS Challenge Walk, but I'd like to do RI 30 like 3 times a week at least. I just need the muscle building!

    Day 1 Week 1 done!!:bigsmile:

    Wasn't too bad, the worst bit was the sitting down with side arm raises, tough one that!! Didn't sweat as much as I did when i first started the shred....but i'm sure that will happen when the levels/weeks move on.

    I'm jumping into after work its only 2pm now. The dvd was supposed to arrive today so even if its not there I'll find it online and do it. How long was the complete workout?? Are you going to take a rest day?

    It's nearly 11pm here in London!!

    Errm, not sure actually as went onto do some zumba straight after, so didn't do her cool down/stretches...i think about 25 minutes upto that point.

    Yes will take a rest day on sunday. Was going to do it 5 times a week, but i seem to have become addicted to working out so probably will do 6 times a week, will get better results as well!

    Hope your dvd arrives soon!

    Oh go on then! I don't want to feel left out. :laugh:

    Only trouble is, I'm trying to get it now through utorrent, but so far I have downloaded 0.3%, and it says it will be ready for playback in 2 days and 19 hours ... I think I may have an issue!

    Think I have to give up now, but will try again in the morning.
