Week 3 Day 1 Level 2 complete! Level 2 is a tough workout!

level 2 is definitely a tough one. I tried it out on Friday and decided I'm not ready for it yet so I'll do 1 more week of level 1 lol...

Level 2 is really tough!! My HRM has me just tipping over 300 cals from it still and its only 30 mins!! Bonkers really. I have done 4 weeks now, though this last week has been patchy (done 3 workouts) so I think I will extend it an extra few days at the other end. I did zumba alongside this today (basics workout, 20 mins) and the combination on my core reallllly hurt!!

Week 3 Day 2 Level 2 complete. I woke up with my buttocks really sore this morning! Didnt expect that with an ab workout. I guess its all the lunges! I pushed through this morning but may have to take a rest day tomorrow. We will see.

I also burn more calories on Level 2 and even though its tougher I like it better than Level 1.

Wow some of you are zooming through, I may have to stop with all the rest breaks, LOL. I overdid my rest days this weekend. Got too comfortable, bf and I ran alot of errands Sat. so no go and then Sunday wasn't up for any workout but I pushed through 1 just not this one I did today though But this is just the start of my week 2, Day 1 went back to lvl 1 of course. Lvl 2 is harder and I feel I need to work up to it more though I did it in the past, have no idea how I manged then

I did one day last week but had so much going on I couldn't continue.

So fresh start last night Day 1 Week 1. Kinda bummed though, I hurt my shoulder on my last day of Ripped in 30 last week so I have to modify some of the plant moves and the superman move. But still getting a workout.

Week 3 Day 3 Level 2 complete! Had to make myself get up this morning and workout. Could have stayed in bed so easy!! Yesterday I did the elliptical instead of 6W6P. Everyone have a great Wednesday!

I'm in week 5 now, getting nervous of the end and checking if there is a change. I *think* I can see more definition, but it may be in my head!! :laugh:

I still find it really hard! I also had a rest day yesterday (I gave blood)

You are awesome for getting up and getting it done early. I have been slacking! My vacation's in a month so I need to pick up the pace.

corina - yay motivated you!

I have been using an 8 lb weight at the start of level 2, but swopping to 5 lb weight for the low to highs and then sticking with the 5lber. Today I kept the 8 lb weight throughout and could *really* tell the difference, I was back to being drenched in sweat and burnt another 25ish cals again - oh and simply couldn't keep up when she went double time!! :laugh:

You ladies are rocking it. I am reporting to to say yes I slacked off again I woke up yesterday in a funk and my hip sore from sleeping wrong apparently. So I decided to lay low from my usual routine. I did strength training and yoga instead. Now today same thing still in a funk and hip still hurting. So today will be total rest hopefully so I can bust it out tomorrow and get back on track. Its too early in the game to be slacking!!

I finally got the form down for those awkward side planks. I realized I had my hand on the floor too far out from my shoulder. When I brought it in closer and did the move, I actually felt it in my lower obliques so I knew I was doing it right!

And I finally figured out how to the the side crunches properly so that I actually felt something.

That's good progress!

VERY INSPIRATIONAL!!! This proves we can always find time, even if we look in the most unexpected of places.

Week 3 Day 4 Level 2 complete! Hopefully I will be able to get in this workout tomorrow so I can have my five days. I will take measurements sometime this weekend and see if I have lost anything. Everyone have a great Friday!!

YAY got back in today with Day 8 of week 2, getting there. I was faltering a bit today with this one but then low and behold my bf came home early, unexpected so I had to pick my game up, LOL. Feel so much better and hoping to get in the rest of this week this weekend.
I need to figure out about my side crunches to, I as well don't feel it. hmmmm I believe I am doing side planks correctly not 100% sure but I think I am close.

Completed Week 3 Day 5 Level 2. Will probably start Week 4 on Monday! Maybe tomorrow, we will see!

I forgot to report yesterday I did Day 9 though YAY.

I'm just about at the end of week 5 now, one more day tomorrow and then its onto the 6th and final week. I don't have a 6 pack, but I do have more definition down my sides definitely. I wasn't trying to lose weight, though I am currently 1 lb lighter anyway. It will be interesting what the tape measure says, I can't honestly say I've honestly noticed a big change, but then I have hardly any clothes that actually fit me!!
