I did level 1 three day last week. I am going to try and do it every night this week because of the wedding and I will still be going to the gym about three days this week too so I plan to get it in. i see some are adding in ankle weights. Is that really increasing your burn?0

Wow! I am in awe of all you ladies!! :flowerforyou: I didnt work out this morning because I wanted to get my ankle weights and didnt get a chance to yesterday. So during my lunch today I am going to see if I can find some and workout tonight. Dont know if I can handle 15 lb weights though, so I will start lighter and have something to work up to!! Everyone is doing such a great job. I am so proud to be apart of this group!

I cannot keep up with this thread! Lol. I haven't been on all weekend. It was really busy...we had a yard sale, then I went out with some friends Saturday night. AND while I was out Saturday night, I saw a guy that I went to high school with. We were dancing, then out of nowhere he said, "damn! you've got an *kitten* on you" :blushing: . Soo...I guess this video is helping a lot
hahahha
That is hilarious! Good story 0 -
Hi Ladies,
Although I wasn't able to participate in this challenge I have been trying to keep up with your thread and I just wanted to say you all are doing amazing! It is truly inspiring to read about your progress and also hear your suggestions. My DVD should be arriving today and I hope to incorporate it with my Insanity program. I'm also going to get some ankle weights to use with my existing hand weights.
Keep up the great work ladies! I'm so looking forward to hearing about all of your results.0 -

Just went and got my ankle weights. 10 lbs adjustable! And decided to get a pair of 8 lb hand weights. I have been doing 5 lbs. Excited and a little nervous about working out with these tonight. Just hoping I can stick with the advanced moves with the higher weights!0

Did level 1 again this morning and it was much harder today. More than likely the Krispy Kremes I had for breakfast and not drinking enough water yesterday. Got to get with it.0

Awesome! I need to get some too just not sure when I can get out next. I don't live near anything so have to wait until I need to get out for groceries.0 -

That is so cool! I was thinking of y'all this morning while I was suffering through mine thinking, "How on earth are they doing this when those ankle weights!"0 -
Wow I have never been so impressed than I am around all you hard working ladies
Unfortunately my week didn't take the turn I was hoping for. I had to go walking out of necessity for job hunting and walked an insane 9 miles yesterday basically straight and was hurting when I got home 
(who knew walking could be so dangerous lol) Then today I had to do another walk which was only 5 miles but I'm feeling it so have taken a mini break from KBT, the thought of doing it makes my legs scream! So hopeful all well tomorrow I will get back on and push for more advance moves with weights but no ankle weights for me at this time
@sweetwater I am craving Krispy Kreme now but none in sight where I live 0 -
Holy cow yall, I finished level 2 this morning and almost cried to push my way through. I really know I need that one and I am now terrified of level 3, LOL!!! I burned 470 calories but felt like 800 calories.....0

Ok enough about my own workout....you ladies have been doing amazing!!!! I am so excited to be a part of such a group of dedicated ladies. If I didn't have you ladies to look at during this journey I would have doubted myself. Thank you!!!0

You got a great burn on that one! Those were tears of joy:bigsmile: creating those killer buns and thighs:happy:0 -
Did the workout tonight with 8 lb ankle weights and 8 lb hand weights! My goodness. What a workout! You can really feel the difference when wearing ankle weights. I am still recovering! Still didn't get a great burn, but I know I got a great workout!. Cant wait to do this workout again in the morning. Everyone have a great evening. I should sleep like a baby!!Lol:happy:0

My WORD, those ankle weights look super tough! I don't even know if I could walk with 15 lb ankle weights on.
I've been bad again yesterday and ate too much. Darn you Krispy Kreme for being so good!!! I've got to get back to eating better if I'm going to do this. Back to level 1 for me today. I am still really sore from level 3 the other day. Probably should have done level 2 more before moving up. Probably need to pick up some sort of ankle weights next time I'm out. My butt hasn't felt the burn yet. I've been sore in my thighs and other places but not my butt yet.
I gave into poppycock today instead of the fruit I brought with me...And sugar goes straight to my thighs.... Grrrr!
If you are not feeling your butt make sure you are squeezing isometrically. Also, a lot of women, especially quad dominant women like me, have trouble activating glutes. Try stretching out your quads and then doing the glute bridge or other glute activation exercise (google them) before beginning the DVD. Hope that helps
I'm bad at weeks, are we switching over to level 2 today or tomorrow? I am going to try to do level 1 in the am and level 2 in the pm. That way I will have 7 level 1s I think? Dreading it but it will earn me a rest day in the middle of level 2, which it sounds like I'll need! I do advanced for everything except the side plank, it hurts my shoulders but I will try.0 -

Thanks for the stretching tip! I am only on Week 1 Level 1 Day 3. I am planning on doing each level for 10 days, the 1st 5 w/o weights and the last 5 with weights, then I'll move on to Level 2. I am doing all the advanced moves as well except for the side planks, my shoulder isn't at 100% yet. You're working hard, keep it up!!0 -
Week 2 Day 3 Level 1 complete. It feels really good to take off those ankle weights after you work out! They make such a difference to workout in.. Good luck today, everyone. Stay motivated!0
