Starting 30DS in 1 week!

OK...so it is 2:30 am here on the east coast and I am WIDE awake! I ordered the 30DS today (well, technically yesterday!) through Amazon. It allows me to watch it directly through Amazon on my computer or use the DVDs when they come. I just previewed all 3 levels and can not wait to start!! A few years ago I worked out with a personal trainer and did so many of the moves Jillian uses. Because I know how effective these exercises can be for me, I am even more committed to do the 30 days!

For those of you who have done this, how quickly did you move to level 2? I do Zumba 3-5 times a week, along with an occasional Zumba toning class (NOT as easy as it sounds!!). I think level 1 is going to be relatively easy, though I could be wrong!

I leave for a one week road trip vacation in 2 days so my plan is to start as soon as I get home. This is PERFECT because I am a teacher and my summer of leisure ends the day we get home!! Going to start this school year off kicking my own butt! The kids had better watch out! They aren't going to know what hit them! I'll post when I start if anyone wants to join me in the 30 days!

    Hi. I'm on Level 1, day 8--and today was the first day that I didn't feel miserable doing it haha Honestly, some days I wanted to cry! I know that some people move up in levels after a week, but I am planning to do each level for ten days. I'm trying to do it consecutively until the 27th to complete the 30 days--that day is also my birthday, so I am very excited to see the results! Hopefully they are good ones! Good luck!

    Hey! I still do the 30DS every now and then...you know me, I do Zumba quite often too, but Jillian kicks my *kitten* each and every time..it's only 25 min or so but it's intense..I think I up'd to level 2 on day 6 or so the first time...I have a love/hate relationship with her!

    I started level 2 today, and plan to do it for 10 days. I did level 1 for 10 days. Around day 5 I felt liked it was getting easier, but I battled horrible shin splints for the remaining days, so it became rather challenging again.
