    i did day one last night. my legs are sore but not too too bad. (truthfully it feels pretty great) i couldn't do half of what she was asking for but i kept moving and did my very best. i have pretty bad knees so my jumping was limited and my squats not quite as low as i would have liked. i am sure i will see mobility improvement as the days tick by. though i felt like my butt had been thoroughly kicked when i was done.

    my one concern is that i live in a third floor walkup. this morning when i left the apartment i did not have complete confidence that i was not going to fall down the stairs!

    Me too! I did day 3 level 1 last night, I even added ankle weights and 3 lb hand weights instead of 1 and I feel great today! I think I'll be ready for level 2 for week 2 =) Now Im just praying for results in 30 days!

    I hope that's the case with me...ugh! Today will be my 3rd day too and I can hardly sit down or get up with pushing on something! LOL...I feel like I don't bend my knees when I walk right now either!! So weird

    Good luck for the next 27 days!!!

    I just started it today! So far (about 7 hours later), I feel pretty OK, but I know I'm going to hurt in the morning! Just keep reminding yourself how amazing you are for working through it and concentrate on the goal ahead and how thrilled and fulfilled you will feel!! It's a HARD workout!!

    Congratulations! Just keep at it and you'll feel so much better! - Kate x

    Sorry if someone has already said this, but the stretching portion on the 30 ds is way to short for me, so I always add in more after the fact (especially for my legs). That DEFINITELY helped with the soreness!!! I also kept a range of weights available so if I felt like I needed to use three pounders for harder exercises I could.

    Hey My day 1 was on saturday and needless to say I was so sore that not until thismorning could I walk around without cringing from sore muscle pain. I also did a couch to 5k run the day before and day after so I think that added to my soreness, Either way I feel much better today and am hoping to do day 2 of level 1 tonight after the kids go to bed. Hopefully I'll make it through the whole thing again. got my new heart monitor too so we;ll see how many calories it says I burn too.

    WOOOO HOOOO!!!!! I just finished day 2 of level 1. Must say that I feel really good. Glad that I waited the extra day to recover before trying it again. I think I was able to give it my all again. Hopefully it won't take as long to recover from this workout. Burned about 350 calories though!!!!!

    OMG seriously? I am using 2kg each hand and it absolutely kills me on the side lunge arm lift thing. I have to drop one and use one weight! I did Day 3 Level 1 this morning, I can hardly walk, sitting down hurts, standing up hurts, lifting a cup of coffee to my mouth hurts but... I LOVE IT.

    Awesome! It gets easier every time. When you complete the 30 days, go back and do level 1 again and you will be amazed that you ever had a problem with it. Really, you will get there!

    lol i know - i want to hurt so i know i've worked out you know? At the moment i'm not getting that and so in my head i don't feel like the workouts are doing anything for me... :indifferent:

    But yea the 6.6lb weights KILL me during the side lunge arm life thing - but then my arms don't hurt the next day?
