    Yikes! The case to my 30DS DVD was empty. I did it before work so I didn't have much time to look so I did Ripped in 30 instead. Just curious what everyone thinks is the hardest part to Jillian's work outs? The ab part is what kicks my *kitten*!

    The push-ups kill me. I hope I build my strength in that department quickly! I'm struggljng with the modified ones!

    So I finished Day 1 yesterday. It was so cute my 3 year old came in and did it with me. He finished it too. I am so happy I did it. The hardest part for me was the side lunges in part 3 I'm a sweaty mess by then! :)

    What is your favorite/worst move?

    I crack up when my 4 1/2 tries to lift my 4lb wts above his head- it's SO heavy to him lol. i agree with the side lunges- it's the arms that do me in tho, cant do the full set with both arms, end up alternating arms about half way thru

    Being the queen of excuses, I had a good one and was tempted to leave the group. Woke up an hour early today and started a load of wash so there wasn't anything to distract me (no kids, couldn't shower, etc.). I feel good (and sore ;) ). The hardest part for me was knowing that 5 years ago before I had kids I would have laughed that this was a challenge. So I am glad that I did it today and look forward to this group so that I can report back and stick with it. :smile: I liked the stretching the best.

    Awesome! I'm really happy you stayed. You've got what it takes and I can't wait to see the results. I am babysitting today and am trying to fit in my workout while the kids are napping. Wish me luck!

    I am struggling with WHEN to do it!!

    I want to get up and do it in the morning but my husband has problems sleeping. so if he is still asleep when I should be getting up to start, I feel guilty and don't want to wake him. figures he starts to sleep when I have something to get up for!

    in the evenings before starting dinner, homework, etc, I do a 3ish mile walk with the dog. by the time everything is settled back down, it is too late to think about doing something like this. I am thinking that as the weather heats up I'll take the dog for her walk later and do the dvd right when I get home. (if I can't get it in first thing in the morning)

    I know these sound like excuses, but I haven't missed a day. fitting things in with the family has always been the biggest obstacle to my working out.

    I agree! It's hard to fit everything into one day! So often I wish I could clone myself lol. If youre worried about waking up your husband has he ever tried earplugs? and an eye mask? silly I know but I cant sleep unless it's totally silent and pitch black. So whenever I travel or sleep anywhere strange I have my trusty earplugs and eye mask (make sure you get one that's dark colored, bought a light green one at first b/c it was cute and IT DIDNT BLOCK THE LIGHT!!! so sad) Keep up the great work! :smile:

    What's your favorite move?

    Lunges and squats with weights, because that's where I feel like I am putting strain on my arms. I feel my arms are getting a good work out. I am glad that I took up this challenge.
