    I'm in... I started today with the Kick Start Workout 1 today. I find it similar to the boot camp I completed in February (which is why I purchased this program). The boot camp made me realize how out of shape I am, even with doing power walking the past 18 months. Working out at home will be convenient, and I'm hoping I can stick with it. I just read a blog with the person reporting that she couldn't complete day one of phase three, but rather than let it defeat her, she is going back to phase one and starting again.

    How did you find the first session? I know it said she goes from routine to routine, but I found the directions to be a bit quick and had to watch to see what I was supposed to do. I used 5 lb dumbbells and can really feel it in my upper arms.

    Good luck, Everyone. Thanks for starting this thread for support.

    Did my first workout + Cardio 1 as well! That was really fun, time just flew by! Burned almost 600 kcal in 54 minutes!
    Oh, and I need to get a heavier pair of weights, since I only have 2.2.lb and 4.4.lb dumbbells. Probably 8s or 10s would be nice.

    Well, I couldn't get myself out of bed this morning for Day 2, but I came home from work and did it tonight. I'm glad I did! I'm using 5 lb weights. As with Day 1, some of the transitions are a bit quick for me, but I catch up. I was surprised that the cable was used in Day 2, and I wish she had an intro to show how to set it up (I'm still not sure I have it right; I may use a stretch band). Anyone tips would be appreciated.

    Good luck to everyone! Stay with it. :happy:

    Day 2 - done. Did Workout 2 + two circuits of Cardio 1. 52 minutes, 491kcal burned. I really need to get heavier weights!
    However, I'm not going to follow the meal plan; there's no way I'm starving myself on 1200kcal.

    I'm hoping the workouts will get more challenging.

    I started on Sunday April 1 because Saturdays off work better for me. Today was my 2nd go at workout 1. I love this one, I feel soooo good after it. I was sore after workout 2 and dead after cardio 1, probably because walking has been all the exercise I had been getting recently.

    Day 4 - check! Workout 1 + Cardio 1. I'm thinking of moving on to Workouts 3 & 4 next week, though.
    And I wish she would have included more Cardio workouts rather than just one per phase
