    Just finished day 1 level 1.. Brutal!! I wasn't too bad off, until we had to do the crunches with the bicycle thing going on..that killed for some reason.. the other exercises I had done before so I was somewhat used to it, just not the intensity with the weights. looking forward to month end.. Good luck!! :)

    Don't get discouraged. It gets easier as you go. Just think of how you will look at the end of the 30 days. You Can Do It!!!

    Good Morning fellow shredders. I got up at 5am to get my workout in today. So it is day 2 level 1 for me. My shoulders are the only part of me that is screaming today. Otherwise I am doing pretty well. Still doing half modified on the push ups. My arms and stomach muscles are the weakest part of my body and need the most help. Hope everyone has a great day!

    I am using 3 pound weights but am thinking I might increase it to five in a couple of days.

    Good morning Fellow Shredders,

    Finished Day 2 Level 1 last night. Really feeling it in my biceps and obliques this morning. The bicycle crunches though tough to get right is hurting this morning as I tried to get out of bed and out of the car.
    Took my before pictures and can't wait till the end. Have a fun day. Getting ready for cardio at the gym today and then Day 3 tonight!

    Done w/ my Day 2.

    Questions for those who has done 30DS before and is in good/great shape: when do you move to Level 2?

    I don't find Level 1 easy, but even using 7.5# dumbbells, I don't feel sore at all.
    I read about other people's posts about feeling it in their quads or shoulders etc, but I don't feel any, especially not any good soreness.

    --> When should I move to Level 2?

    I thought to stick w/ Level 1 for at least 7 days to make sure that I can do it every day, instead of dreading the workout which may persuade me to not do the workout.

    Thanks for your insight.

    Just wanted to check in with everyone. I am still on level 1 this is day 4 for me. Not as sore today and my endurance has improved. Still hate those dang pushups. I did 7 non modified ones on each set. Someday I am going to be able to do them all without modification. Now I am going to hit the elliptical for a 2 mile run.

    I completed day 5 this morning. I still struggle with the modified push ups. My arm strength is not good...but I can tell I'm getting stronger each day. My endurance has definitely improved! So excited to see the results at 30 days. :)

    Day 6 of 30 complete. I got a head start the end of April! Progressed onto level 2 today. Not as bad as what I anticipated. Going to get up early and hit it again in the morning. Have to be at the ball field by 8:15 for a 9am game so I will do the video, get ready, then while my son warms up with dad and the team I will hit the walking trail for another couple miles of walking.

    Great job everyone! I can't wait to take measurements and pictures...wait...did I just say that lol?
