Labor Day Shredders!

How does everyone feel today? I'm a little sore (mostly legs). Also, anyone who can't do the regular push ups? I can do around 3 total then switch to modified.

I can do bout 8 the 1st time round, then do the modified ones,
2nd time round, arms are hurting, so do the modified ones

The weather was horrible here this weekend so I didn't get to get the DVD but I'm going this afternoon to get it. I will try to catch up and maybe do 1 and 2 today... I'm excited...

Uh-Oh...

Lol, I started on the 1st so I did day 6 today. I wish I would have done measurements sooner ( still haven't done them) Cause I can already tell a difference in my clothes.

I am so embarrassed about my push-ups... i have such weak arms it is bad... :blushing: I did the modified and was still only able to go down an inch... :laugh: Please tell me I will get better with time!!!

Also, anyone who can't do the regular push ups? I can do around 3 total then switch to modified.

I am stuck with the modified as I have a fully dislocatable shoulder and it will pop out if I try the regular ones. The modified hurt it too, but not as much! Do what you can do and keep up, you will still burn a lot of calories and get a really good workout.

For those of you who are sore I HIGHLY suggest Advil or anothe NSAID. I take it every 4 to 6 hours when I feel the muscle strain. It helps me get over it a lot quicker!

L1D2 Done... Man am I sore!!! I cant beleive that I have completed this thing twice in the last 6 months and it i still kicking my butt this bad! wow!

KristynStephens15

I agree about the advil! I have Bursitis in one knee and arthritis in my hips, Im a mess at 25! :laugh: But I wont make that an excuse. To those of you who are starting a day or 2 late or a couple days early, that is totally fine! You can either remind/warn us to whats ahead, or be prepared as we warn you! :laugh: Make sure everyone is getting in all their water, that too helps with sore muscles I hear!

Well Krystyn I decided to join you on here too! I guess we will be Labor Day Shredded Mummies...LOL! I will be doing the program every day but the bad thing is that at the end of this month I might be going to Vegas so I will miss the last 4 days and have to do them when I get back. Unless I just do it while I am gone??? Maybe? The thing I wanted to ask is what size weights are you using. I have 3's and 5's and I started last night with the 3's but don't know if I should be using the heavier weights. Maybe since this is my first round I will use the 3's and work up to the 5's? Thanks for the invite!!

Tracy, Im kind of pathetic, and even though this is my 3rd round of the shred, I still use my 2lb weights! :laugh: However, I can now do a few real push ups so my arm strenghth is building. If I were you to get your 4 days in before you leave, maybe double up on level 1 twice and double up on level 2 and 3 once that way you get in 4 extra days and can weigh in before you leave. Vegas may definitly derail your results... it would for me!! :laugh: Any how glad to have you! Miami-Mimi is also doing both challenges, glad to have some of my Mummies shred with me!!

What other challenge are you doing? My husband just got home from work a little bit ago. We are gonna cook dinner soon and I will do the shred after the baby goes down around 7pm. Sore but excited! I think I needed a group like this for support to stick with it! I need to lose this muffin top!

Kristyn - good idea about the doubles. I have a feeling that Vegas might derail me. Only going to be there for the weekend and have never been there before so there will be TONS to see. It is going to be a girls weekend so I can't wait! I think I will give the doubles a shot. I still have to take measurements but my starting weight as of this morning was 151. I will post measurement, hopefully tomorrow and take pix.

It will be great getting to know all of you!

Got day 2 in when I got home from work this evening. I am starting to love this workout!
