Can't do level 1 30 day shred

Here are my modifications. For jumping jacks (I can't do them, I know JM says "everyone can", but not me), I hop on the stationery bike, peddle like crazy and do the arm movements (do that for butt kicks, too. I have a balance issue when both feet aren't on the ground...). Keeps the cardio up (point of those exercises), and engages arms and legs toegether. I can do knee push ups, but you can also do standing push ups against a wall. It helps, and eventually you'll be able to "graduate" to knee push ups!

I didn't read all the posts, but I'm going to say pretty much the same as the ones I did read, keep it up. Modify the workouts to Feel comfortable doing them, but still work up a sweat.
If you don't do it in 30 days don't worry!
I do the shred every other day and I'm on level 2 finally after a few weeks on level 1. You actually get used to it!

Have you been doing other cardio prior to this?

Yes, I've got a crosstrainer which I would use twice a week, but I've been using it everyday for an hour on the harderst resistance (8) for the past week, that's why I couldn't understand why it was so hard for me.. but I'll keep trying, after reading all the comments I tried to try it again and did 15 mins, will be just adding time and see how it goes..
