    Hurray! Nice to have that people joining!!

    What sort of weights does everyone use?

    When I started I was using 3 lbs and I was hurting, but that was four months ago. I am going to use 15 lbs just to chanllenge myself. If not, then I decrease it to 8 or 10 lbs.

    Yay I'm done with day 1 too :) Frst time I've used this site .. i'm hoping i'll get past day 10 this time :D I'm hoping to do 6W6P/killer buns along side too ? Maybe I'm being a bit too ambitious , does evryone do cardio alongside it too ? I really need to measure as I know it's motivating when you start to see some imporvement!

    Day 1 complete! I used 5 LB weights, which was good since it challenged me- BUT I almost dropped them when doing the side lunges w/ front arm raises- BRUTAL! I might have to get my 3LBS out for that one and then go back to my 5's for the rest...OR i could just suck it up I guess. hahaha!
    My fav move would have to be the squat w/ over head lifts- i neeeeed the dreaded backs of my legs TONE!!
    Cant wait for day 2!!

    flabwillbefab- Im with you on the PUSH UPS!! I thought I could 'hang' and started off doing the normal ones- only to end up on my knees after about 3. haha. Hoping to be able to work up to all normal ones by the end of week 1...but I will NOT be sad to see them GO!!!!!! hahahha

    kcstens - I try and get another form of strait cardio in too- 3-4ish times a week on top of the video. I normally run (sometimes a steady run sometimes a HIIT) on the treadmill for about 30 mins (or 3ish miles).

    Okay, so I haven't done mine yet. I will be doing it during my lunch break. I use three and five lb weights. Just depends on my activity level prior to working out. bought the Killer buns and thighs dvd so I may do it along with 30 DS. Good luck to everyone!!!!

    :happy: Day one down yesterday. Have been running now for about a month - not a whole lot - using eliptical and stationary bike. I AM SORE! Having not done lunges and squats for a little over a month is killer! but oh so worth it. Looking forward to day 2 today.
