    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 :D 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.

    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.

    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.

    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!!
