    So today would have been day 3 but my legs are soooo painful. I am gonna give them a rest today and do day 3 tomorrow. I think its better to rest really sore muscles so they have a chance to repair themselves. I might do some pilates for the abbs and flexibility just so I have done something though.

    I started this on Sunday and didn't do it on Monday so I had to restart again last night. It's a great workout!

    I am on day 7 (should be day 9 but i took the weekend off) first couple of days i didn't know how i was gonna make it thru let alone have the engery to get up and do it...But i did!!! I am now on day 7 doing level one. I am choosing to do 10 days on each level getting me to the 30 days!! DO NOT check your weight everyday like i did i knew i wasn't loosing any weight every day but still i checked and saw my weight growing i realized it was because i gained muscles!! Now on Day 7 i added eliptical training to the mix too, to help me burn more calories...FYI week 1 i lost 2.4 pounds!!!

    I'm thinking of checking this out, but it sounds hard. Is it ok for beginners or more suited to routine and hard core exercisers?

    Are you guys talking about Jillian Michaels' 30 day shred? I just started doing the DVD. I want to know how many calories I burn in one 20 minute session. Anyone know? Or even an estimate would be fine with me. I have no idea.

    it all depends on your motivation and willingness to complete the circuit.
    She works out with two ladies one who does "easier" versions of each excersize
    You work out on each level for a week the idea is that your body gets accustomed to the circuits
    Each week. Trust me, ALL excersize is hard but remember, Jillian has used these circuits on
    The biggest loser contestants so anyone can do it it's not meant only for the "hardcore"
    I find it hurts the knees a bit (lunges and squats) so I just modify those moves..
    DO IT! you won't regret it it's actually a great way to get into a healthy routine
    Good luck!

    Bought it today, and completed my first level one exercise! It was tough! Almost wanted to quit, but I sucked it up. I feel amazing right now. I love that post workout feeling!

    Anyone interested in buying any Jillian DVDs should check out Big W right now - they've got about five of hers on special :) I started this yesterday and am sore but not overly sore.
    Those with leg injuries - she says in the bit with the punching that if you have leg injuries, just do punching instead of the other types of cardio. As she keeps repeating in Level 1, "We don't want any injuries!" I have lower back issues which stuff my legs and I can only really do the kick backs and punching without ruining my chances of finishing the workout due to intense (and mid-treatment) pain.
    And can anyone else not do a single pushup? I can do every other strength and ab exercise and I can usually do a plank on my elbows, but I just can't do a push up... :(
    Btw, new here so anyone looking to make a supportive and enthusiastic friend who is determined to get to her goal weight of 55kgs from 72kg (2 down, 15 to go) - add me! :)

    Did Day 4 today, missed yesterday..scheduling problems lol...I slept in......it is easier for sure, I'm not nearly as sore as I was on day 2 and 3 either so that's a plus. I hope to do it every day straight but I'm not going to stress out too much if I miss the odd day here and there. Day 5 here I come!

    Last night I did my 3rd day. I skipped Tuesday because I did a really intense 90 minute yoga class that day (hot yoga) and it made my neck and back hurt so I took a break for the rest of the evening.

    But last night I did 90 minutes of yoga and then L1 right after it. It was much harder than Day 1 or 2 (without yoga... go figure). :)

    But hey, I did it, right? It SUCKED but I did it. :)
