    Week one day one done & I made it through the whole thing. It was similar to 30 shred-nice transition. I am a day late, but it said to do it at least 5-6 days a week, so I'll make it up . I can't wait to see some progress!

    Yeah, I am tracking my weight, but haven't done any measurements... Will probably do so tonight since I'm only on day 2 it's close enough.

    Completed ri30w1d2- 315 cal burned
    Completed kb&tlvl1d5-417 cal burned
    Completed c25kw3d1-318 cal burned

    Loved every minute of it. I'm following the advanced moves and using 5 lb weights.
    I remember doing the shred for the first time and couldnt even make it all the way without stopping. I couldn't do pushups, I could barely squat, I was always resting during the cardio. I also had trouble with the abs. This was about two months after my second csection. I am now 10 months pp. I love now how I can lunge and go all the way down, or do a full squat. And I love doing pushups now, makes me feel so strong. It's amazing what you can do with your body if you push yourself! keep going everyone!! Anyone can feel free to add me as support

    You are amazing! What an inspiration! I hope I can get somewhere close as fit as this eventually. Have you achieved these levels just through Jillian's workouts?

    Ok, I've just read through the first 8 pages of this thread and man oh man I am so excited to get started with you guys! Please add me as a friend so I can catch up with everyone! I can't wait to get started on Monday :happy: I really hope that I'm strong enough to do everything after finishing 30DS. Everyone who's already started - I'm jealous - he he. You guys rock! I'm going to do 6 times a week (Mon - Sat) and take Sunday as rest day. Adding 3 x a week of cardio at the gym.

    I just can't wait to get started now! Too exciting!!! :bigsmile:

    Just want to encourage everyone to take their measurements. It would probably be best to take them with an empty stomach.

    Bust (thickest part of your chest)
    Waist (natural bend when you bend to the side)
    Abdomen (thickest part of your middle below the belly button, usually 2 inches below)
    Hips (thickest part of your butt)
    Thigh (only one, measure right under where your butt meets the leg)
    Calf (thickest part, sitting down)
    Arm (middle of bicep, relaxed)

    Add all six of these measurements as one total: Nisijam 204.75

    Day 2 done! It felt easier but that's probably because I did it before going to the gym instead of after like yesterday.

    Hello fellow Rippers! I haven't started yet. I'm on Day 27 of 30DS. My last day is on Saturday, taking Sunday off, and then I'm starting Ripped on Monday. Hope that isn't too late to join in? I'm really excited. I had some great results with 2 rounds of 30DS, but I am definitely ready to move on. Cant' wait to get started! :happy:

    Hi :smile: Welcome :happy:
  • Ok I completed D1 for me. OMG, that was killer. The running man was really hard cuz of the exercises around it. But the second round of ab work was better than the first for me. I also felt a sense of wanting to throw up during the cool down but once finished and I drank some water and sat down I was fine.

    I'm trying to see if my HRM is working right. It says I burned 166 cal. in the 35 min workout. That's counting from start of warm up to cool down. But when I use my online calculator it says I burned 404 cal. They can't possibly be that far off can they. Any ideas?

    I only burn around 200 or so and I do use an HRM.. I would go with your HRM more than online calculators which tend to be on the high side.

    I use 3 pound weights on the first and third circuit, five pound weights on the second circuit (dead lifts). Probably why the back of my thighs are burning today. As far as eating, I practice portion control and try to keep within 1200-1400 calories. I'm also limiting how much red meat I eat and focusing on veggies, whole grains and fish.

    Completed w1d3-342 cal burned
    Also did day 6 of kb&t-406 cal burned

    As far as my diet...well it's crap. I don't practice good willpower and and most the time I just don't care. Its something I'm working on. I probably would of reached my goal by now if i practiced better eating, but Im kinda taking it slowly. And I don't cut my calories low.im also still breastfeeding so I'm pretty much still enjoying whatever I want to eat without gaining. But she doesnt nurse very often anymore, so i need to start being careful.The past two days I've gone crazy with Halloween candy, and I paid for it by a terrible stomach ache..you think I would learn. Lol

    Sambo004- thank you. I still have a long way to go. That's why I recently started running. And hopefully get heavier weights if I ever get money. Lol. I'm hoping to get insanity for Christmas :) And yes I achieved most of this by doing her videos. I've done the shred, and ripped a couple times I also have her banish fat boost metabolism,6week6pack, yoga meltdown, and killer buns and thighs. So there are times when I just mix everything up. I also use Tony hortons 10 minute trainer DVD for when I'm short on time. Killer buns and thighs is amazing! Everyone should get it


    Keep up the good work everyone!

    Do you check it randomly throughout your workout? Sometimes mine will lose the signal and I'll have to pause it to resend the signal

    I can't do the scoop thing w
    Even with my head down, any suggestions? I had a emergency c section at 25 weeks preggo, and they cut vertical, and my ab is SUPER WEAK. I would love ideas. Day 2 done.

    I would maybe do other ab strengthening exercises like crunches or even just holding plank (I know, I know, no fun!), just to get your strength up there.

    Oh my goodness, I just did Ripped in 30 for the second time today, haha. I normally would only do it once, but just for fun did it with my husband this evening - so got it in once before school and now once tonight. I think I'll still count it as only day 3 even though I've now done it 4 times :) I'm feeling pretty proud of myself :)

    I use a HRM and I burn 165-170 cals for the 34 mins (I am 5'3 and 111lbs right now) What type of HRM do you use?

    Just finished W1D2! This was excellent! I'm so pumped and determined to get through the entire series this time! Thanks to you all for sharing and inspiring.
  • Thanks for the responses. I guess I'm going to just have to see what my calorie burn is for the rest of the week and make sure it's not my HRM. I've been using the calculator for my other workouts so I'm guessing they were probably off which makes a big difference when you're counting calories.

    I use an Oregon HRM. I checked it during my workout to make sure it was still receiving. My HR stayed above 170 and sometimes up to 180 during the actual workout. I'm 5'3" and 171lbs and my calorie burn was 166. I only missed a few reps here and there but my HR didn't really drop before I got started again.

    Just finished W1D3, and it was tough, but not as bad as D2. I was sore all day long, but I stretched real good before I started and when I got going with today's workout the soreness was bearable. I can feel strength coming to my thighs, so I can hardly wait for this weight to drop off of me!! Still going strong!
