    I hate them too - feel like they should be easier but they're just not!

    Day 4 of Level 2 and I am so pleased it is over!!

    Found this quite challenging tonight and that was using no weights! I admire all of you who complete this with weights of more than 2lbs! Still haven't bought my 'proper weights', must get this weekend, juice bottles much too awkward to use with Level 2 tonight. Perhaps lack of heavier weights reason why after 14days I have not noticed any difference in my clothing, inches, looks or scales!

    Day 2 L2 complete. It felt good, especially that I wasn't feeling like working out today.

    I am going to take Sunday off. Unless of course guilt sets in. We are going away overnight on Saturday so I thought a day off is in order. We will see.

    Completed L2D9. I am almost finished and I am excited. At this stage of the game I can really handle myself. I'm no longer struggling. I love it.

    Will be doing L2/D9 today. Still kicking my butt! Those oblique twists challenge my coordination (to say the least)! Hopefully at the end of the weekend I will feel more confident after the Level 2 workout and can move on to Level 3.

    Adios Level 2 !!! Finished 10 days and moving on up to Level 3 tomorrow. I'm glad to be moving on - I was getting bored (not that it was easy - it was just the same thing for so long)!

    Day 7 done, day 6 yesterday but switched off computer without commenting. Enough said that it was a thought to put it back on. Unsure if the warmer weather making me sweat more during the exercise or if I am perhaps giving the exercises a little more, either way, its time I headed for the shower...!

    question..
    i was not feeling well all weekend- today also actually, so i missed my regular workout. if i double up for a few days, will that work, to catch up? or will it not have the same effect?
  • Just did level 2 for the first time. Almost died but made it through. I feel awesome now tho :)

    Day 8 completed,

    For some reason my outer thighs are ACHING so much tonight! Deja vue of level 1, day 1. Ouch, ouch and another ouch as i try to walk or get up off the chair!!! Pleased with myself tonight though as some of my push ups improving...... think i may have even managed a couple of half decent ones for a change!!

    Today will be day 3 on level two for me and its definitely a big leap from level one. I didn't lose weight in level 1 but I knew level 2&3 will either give major inches lost or some pounds. I'm excited to see some changes

    Day one of level two completed. YAY! It did seem to go by faster than level one. I liked this one better even though I struggled with finishing some of the moves. But I struggled to finish some of the moves in level one the first few days too, so I'm not worried. Moved up to 8 pound weights for level two and it was pretty easy, although I had to go back to 5 pounds for a couple of the moves. I dont think I'm doing the plank positions totally accurate because they seem a bit too easy. I have also been doing Jillians burn fat boost metabolism dvd about 4 days a week and level two of the shred has some of the moves from that dvd but easier. So no doubt thats helped me! I'm thinking about maybe doing level 1 and level 2 back to back like a couple of you are doing.
  • i am on l2d3 tmrw morning. it is def more tougher than level 1. lol. there were two exercises i couldnt finish but i pushed as hard as i could. i am very sore. and i think mostly cus i took 2 days off over the weekend. but i feel good after the workout. i have lost a few inches off each thigh. an inch off calves. inch off waist and 1/2 off hips. only one pound lost so far.

    Should have been doing day 9 tonight but struggling with long standing ankle problem I have. It became evident as soon as i begun the jumping jacks. Decided i would have to miss tonight as level 2 got lots of jumping around and twisting. Thought to have a wee look at level 3 and .............. I have completed day 1 of level 3! Well pleased with myself!!! Had to do some modifications and certainly didnt' use any weights at all throughout the workout but very pleased that I actually managed to do 20minutes of execise! Will now go report on Level 3 progress page:smile:
