    i just ordered my DVD, should be waiting in my mailbox when I return from the beach (!!)

    does the DVD come with some basic "instructions?" like, when to move to the next level?

    i cant wait to start!!!

    I don't think it does, but I'm splitting it up 10/10/10. I take 1-2 rest days on each level.
  • i love the 30 day shred!

    the idea is you move on the next level when the level you're on gets easy, depending on your current fitness level it could take a while or you could be ready right away (i have heard from some people that level one's not much of a challenge at all, but i disagree, i think it's a great work out)

    i've also heard it really helps tone more than it helps lose weight, i think that also depends on how much weight you have to lose, i think the more weight you have to lose the more likely you'll get big results from the 30 day shred, if you're on your last couple of pounds you're more likely to tone muscles and not lose the weight (just my opinion)

    i'd done it for about a week - then i was sick so i took about 4 days off - and then i started it up again once i was better and have "restarted" and am on day 4, again i love it because it makes me sweat and work hard and i feel refreshed and energetic afterward! it sets me up for a day of playing with/keeping up with my little one year old :)

    how long/ how many days did you do level 1 for before moving on to level 2? and how often do you do the 30 day shred for?

    I think you are supposed to do 10 days on each level.

    I'm only doing the DVD M-W-F and am going to do two weeks of each level.... Well, that's the plan as of right now.... I just did my second week of level one this morning, and I think I *may* need to do another week of it. IDK, maybe I'll do each level three weeks, but I'll decide on Friday for sure.

    I think just do what you're comfortable with.... Although not TOO comfy, since we do want to be shredded!! LOL.

    I'm totally starting to feel refreshed and energetic after the w/o too! Today was the first day of week two on level one.... Usually I'm a B on Monday when I get into work :blushing: but today, I'm in such a good mood! :smile: I'm loving it! Plus, my DH over the w/e was like "where's your butt going?" :happy: Made me feel wicked good!

    Okay Ladies, If you don't mind .. .I'm going to join this group. I ordered the DVD from Netflix. It should be arriving soon. I am hoping that the holiday weekend doesn't delay the arrival.

    In the meantime, I am going to stream another one of her workouts on the Xbox. I have been doing the Couch to 5K for nearly 2 weeks. I had to do week 1 two times. Oh well. Gotta start somewhere.

    I am noticing a lot of toning in my muscles and it's really nice to look in the mirror as I brush my hair and actually see some muscle outline instead of flab.

    Yay!!

    I did Jillian's Cardio Kick Box. It was good. I'm a novice to this working out stuff so it was nice. I earned a lot of calories but I ended up not using them all because I was so tired.

    I wonder if it's a good idea to "bank" unused calories for the weekend. :ohwell:

    Ok, so my two daughters and I did it last night and I sweated like crazy. It was a little rough for me, but not to bad. I'm really not that sore either (it must be from the christian yoga that I have been doing :laugh:). My oldest daughter hasn't been exercising that much and she is alot sorer than me :bigsmile:. I like it and plan to do it every other night :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    wow i just did my first day on level one of 30 day shred... OMG!!!! i thought i was going to pass out half way through the dvd..anyone that has made it to level 2 your are amazing !!! Has anyone finished the dvd yet??

    I did level 1 for the first time Wednesday night after work. I like working out when my husband is at work but I did not know he got off early and he walked in when I was 15 mins in and I was so embarassed because I felt like I was dieing.

    But I will continue to do it. I am determined to get through all three. But those jumping jacks, I must buy some good sports bras. LOL

    I have used this DVD in the past. Once you get more advanced you can do 2 or 3 levels at a time. When I first got it I thought 25 mins was not enough for me so I started doing 2 levels at a time. 1 and 2 one day, rest one day, then 2 and 3, rest and so on. I have never done it two days in a row. I think it is important to rest your muscles to get better results. Then the second time around I did it I was doing 3 levels at a time. Both times I got great results. Challenge yourself when you are ready!! :flowerforyou:
  • I have been doing 30 day shred for a week now and am starting to feel results. I'm moving to Level 2 on Monday, even though the anterior arm raises are still difficult (probably will be forever--I have no muscle mass in my arms!).

    Also bought the Boost Metabolism cardio dvd and YEOWZA did that ever hurt. I did that one yesterday and it was the first time I've ever not been able to finish a dvd. The floor circuit is KILLER. (Planks to push-ups and back again anyone??) And there is lots of jumping, jumping, jumping. I've done a TON of fitness dvds and that one by FAR takes the cake as far as difficulty for even the semi-fit. Yikes.

    My whole body is somewhat sore today from it. However, I stuck to my guns and did the 30-Day Shred again! Now if only I could get my eating under control, I'd be smokin' hot! :) One thing at a time, right?

    I am so upset. I ordered it from Netflix. 3 days in a row it said it was available. The day I am scheduled to get new movies. It pops up that there is a short wait. That sucks. Now I have to wait a bit longer for it to arrive. Not cool at all.
