    ......when the simple act of walking resembles more of a limp and even worse occasionally stumbling around like you're drunk. DOMS on legs is the worst but a great sign that growth is occurring.

    Oh my! You've reminded me of 'leg jerking' the next day while you walk.. I am in Uni in the Welsh Valleys and there are a LOT of stairs, my friends were laughing at me one day as I couldn't walk the stairs at my normal pace, I couldn't trust my muscles not to jerk and make me fall up the stairs.. or down on the way down for that matter! lol Love it though!!

    Yep. That's the one! Those legs may as well flap in the wind they're that useless;)

    This too! I shower then dry off with a towel then have to blowdry all the sweat off before I can even get dressed! Gotta love making those fat cells cry AFTER your workout too.

    Well I know I did good when my body shakes :D. Makes me feel like I did something. I love the 30 day shred because it always leave my body shaking. I also feel strong after I'm done. Today I did a short but decent walk, 30 day shred and a jog not to long ago. About a hour and 15 minute workout all and all. While my legs are so sore and my muscles are already starting to get a little sore, I feel strong and wonderful.
