Throw yourself on the floor, raise your torso off the ground with your arms...only do it with grace.0 -
I just finished workout 9 today for the first time (YAY, phase 3!!) and OMG!!!! Did anyone else question if Jillian lost her mind during this workout?!? I actually had to pause the DVD several times because I thought I was going to die, and that is totally not like me. I was yelling at Jillian telling her she was f'ing crazy and asking her if she lost her mind. The dive bombers were ok for me as were the crabs with weights, but all the stuff in circuit one and two with planks made my wrists hurt sooooo bad.
Oh well, time to get some protein in me. I am definitely scared for workout 10 tomorrow.0 -
Starting workout 9 tonight and am scared! Ahhhh! I've been on weeks 7 and 8 for about 3 weeks now, but only got about a weeks worth of working out in the last 2 weeks. I'm just moving on.0

No matter how hard I try, I can NOT lay on my back with my legs up and lift my butt off the ground. It won't move at all. I have to put a foot on the floor and push with my heels.0

Workouts 9, 10 and Cardio 3 are just SOO brutal! I'm not a wuss, but I've shed a tear for the past couple of days while doing Cardio 3....yeah it's that bad to me!
Crab kicks....WTH!!!! They all do it with such ease....just bouncing up and down, it's a chore for me to even LIFT my leg while doing it!
But I do it....guess that's all that matters.0 -
What is with that move in Workout 10 in which you bend at the waist with one leg up and touch the floor with your dumbbell and hold there? I have no balance with that move. It was funny to see everyone in the video struggle with it (except Anita who did it without the weight-- she is awesome!).0

I just did 10 this morning....jealous of Anita! Its a Half Moon Yoga Pose.0

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH...that's one of my favorite poses from my yoga practice. Something to look forward to in workout 10!0 -
Today I am on workout 10..I start workout 11 on monday.
I find workout 10 to be extremely awkward and its most least favorite workout so far in the set.0 -

Accurate description!

Start phase 2 in the morning. Scared to death and excited!0

I'm starting Phase 3 tomorrow....I had to do an extra week of workouts 7 and 8 because I went on vacation (and ate bad).. It's been a little tough to get back into the swing of things, but hopefully the difficulty of the new workouts will keep me in check! I'm soo happy to be done w/cardio 2!! I hated it!! 0

i love workout 100

First workout in phase 3 done! 310 calories burned. I actually love the crabs! And, I finally know what a divebomber is! I like them, but something in my lower back and hips makes an awful sound, maybe its the muscles crying out in pain!!0
-
Okay....I'm officially scared!! Getting ready to do w/o 9. To be coninued.....0

Did phase 3 cardio 3 last night, yep Jillian is crazy! Loved it though. Workout 10 this morning. My shoulders are feeling it!0
-
Round 2 of workout 9 done!0

Things are finally becoming "easier", especially since I start with Cardio 3. I'm getting more burn than I ever have and I think I may be able to do Cardio 3, Workout 9 & 10 tonight!0

I really hate workout 9! I feel like we're not doing much lifting and some of the moves are just plain awkward to get into. I'm feeling pretty frustrated with that one but workout 10 is much better.0

I completely agree! But after three times doing workout 9, I can finally do the push-up jacks! Still can't do the rock n roll squats and the boat pose to hollow man. What a nightmare those are! I'm excited to do workout 10 again tomorrow

She is just plain insane. I'm a little behind this week, but will have all complete by Saturday. 9 was awkward, and 10 much better. I will say though, 8 weeks ago I would not have believed I'd be doing what I've aaccomplished so far, especially with my right knee. I've really pushed thru, and have modified where needed. I just wished my bottom half looked as good as my top half. Very, very disappointed with that aspect. I think I'll try Brazillion Butt Lift next. Any takers?0

I can't do a boat pose to save my life, my form is so off because my tailbone is always KILLING me while doing it!0 -
you guys are scaring me!! I just finished my last time of doing cardio 2 and I start workouts 9 and 10 on Monday! Sounds like I'm in for it! haha0

Second week of phase 3 and it was a little easier. Not easy by no means, but I didn't feel like I was going to die!0

so i did workout nine yesterday and all i can say is holy crap!
first of all, the crabs with weights don't bother me at all. i've lost more than six pounds, so having six pounds of weight on me is actually less resistance than i had in the beginning with crabs because i weighed more.
but the rest of the moves? half of them i can't even figure out how to do properly! the one that is downward dog and you bring your leg forward and back? I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do that one in the right form. i think my downward dog stance is lacking or something! same with the plank ups or whatever those things are called where they 'gracefully' rock into plank and then on their elbows, how do they do it so gracefully?!
i may have to have an extra week on these work outs too. i just don't feel like i'm doing any of them right!0 -
I would have liked her to explain it better through a couple of slow ones. You're on the floor not looking at the screen and you think - What???!?!
I can't do the chaturanga - or however it's spelled - either. It just 'ain't happenin'.0 -
So I'm in my third week of doing workouts 9 and 10, and things have gotten much better. Three and a half weeks ago I was CRYING because I was in so much pain trying to do the moves. There are certain moves I still can't do.....boat pose, and that "plank up" move mentioned above, I can't forget about the Rockstar squats. I can only do ONE plank up move and then go to the modified version on my knees. I'm also jumping higher when I do Rockstar Jumps and Cannon Balls....even though I'm no David or Ken lol0

3 1/2 weeks left and I'm getting sick???? Really??? I made it through CARDIO 3 though. Lets hope I can get through 9 tomorrow!0
