Day 8 level one for me today! day 7 yesterday went well! The side lunge with arm raises are definetly rhe hardest i agree! and yes doing the last jump rope feels amazing and like she says i float in the air haha but they are hard to do at the start of the workout!
cant wait for level 2!
And miximg it in with level one...interesting might have to try it and some point!
wonder if id make it to the end haha 0 -
Yeah, I thought I would wait and see what level 2 is like first. I have not even looked at it. Too frightened haha. Mind you its only a few days away.
Hi wendyterry, I know what you mean about co-ordination, you should see me trying to do jumping jacks, I look like a ballerina (not) at the beginning trying to get my arms and legs doing whatever!!!!!0 -
trixiemou i just had a quick look at level 2 now skiiped though it and it looks ok....haha wel see.
Just did day 8! was good definetly getting too easy though so level 2 will be a good challange in a couple of days!

Try eBay for HRMs - people buy them and then give up exercise or upgrade theirs so always plenty of 2nd hand ones at good prices.0

i only weigh 58kg
Hey there,
I weigh 54kilos, height is 163cm and my HRM for level 1 was averaging 145cals burnt, level 2 i'm averaging 165cals. Will start level 3 in a few days.
I add it as circuit training general, hope this helps. :happy:0 -
haha i am the complete opposite.. the strength exercises are a chore for me and I find the cardio fun lol!Hi everyone, Day 8 level 1. Thanks jbaa88 for the advice on the push ups, I did try to do a couple of full push ups but am not sure how good they were. They also ached my back so went back to modified. I will keep on trying tho. Its funny how different exercises get to different people. The lunges I almost welcome, jumping jacks and skipping rope are definitely a chore.....still..... I love the last rope tho it signifies I am near the end haha.
Its working well tho and am looking forward to the next level.
Has anyone tried doing level 1& 2 together......oops did I just ask that?0 -
Day 9 level 1 and what a weird session that was. It was sort of easier, but........ When it came to doing the last session of butt kicks I was definitely flat footed, could hardly lift my feet off the ground. I did find that I was actually laughing at myself but it was a strained sort of laugh. Glutton for punishment, that's me!0
-
Day 9 level one!! i agree trixiemou i found it strange as well! it is definitely easy now i am ready to change too level 2 but i agree that last set of butt kicks got my thighs and calves burning! strange isn't it!
I am ready for level two now finding level one a bore now and too same old same old.
I am going to take pictures after day ten tomorrro too see the progress every ten days after every level.
Thank you dloucarter that has helped - i actually downloaded the free Jillian michaels app for my iphone and you out your weight and height etc in it and choose the 30 day shred level one as your exercise and it says how many cals you should burn for 20 mins and it says for me 155 which is the same as i what it says if i out 20 mins of circuit training into MFP. so it works out well.0 -
Day ten today! but i dont have time for any other form of exercise today! super busy but will fit in my 3ods.
After today i am going onto level two but it is labour weekend here/long weekend so i am going away so i will b having 3 days off 30ds And starting level two on tuesday! I hope this doesnt effect anything- i am still going to be doing other forms of exercise like hiking and walking.0 -
I did level 1 and burned, according to my HRM, 467 calories. I did Insanity up until the end of September but have started to slack off this month. I was surprised to see how well I did doing Level 1 again. I did a lot more of the cardio, faster than Jillian and the 2 girls behind her. I name my excercises because I have multi DVDs I do. For the 30 DS, I just label it as cardio because when I try to create/add my own excersise to my list, the only options is cardio and strength and since I manually enter in my calories burned, it doesn't matter what I log it under...plus I feel it's more cardio.0

its best to use HRM but if you dont have one, i read on a health forum you multiply your weight in pounds by 1.11 for cals burned on 30 day shred! i started my first day today x
i use the above and add it manually0 -
I am just downloading the 30 day shred on the computer as we speak, so I am very interested in everyone's opinions here. Seems like the general consensus is it's a kick a** workout. I'm excited to give it a whirl now!0
-
Had to give yesterday a miss, my body just did not want to play. So this morning I completed day 10 level 1 and am actually looking froward to starting level 2. I still do the modified push up but managed 5 of the full. I am feeling a little bloated though. I am sure I am seeing a difference in my lower stomach area tho its a slightly different shape??????
Good luck everyone, here's to another good week.0 -
how's everyone doing? i've been pretty bad and actually skipped the last 3 days, but I'm going to start level 2 today! I played tennis yesterday and I definitely felt that level 1 of 30ds has already made me stronger, upper body wise. Or maybe it was just a good day of tennis.
Anyway, I did start to feel discouraged because I haven't noticed anything in weight change! How's everyone else doing? I try to watch my calorie intake for the most part during the weekdays. I go about 200 calories over on the weekends. I'm only allowed 1200 calories.
How are you guys doing eating wise?0 -
Hi everyone, hope you are all shredding along nicely. Just started day 1 Level 2. It does not seem quite as intense as level 1 but has some different exercised in there, I like it!
jbaa88, I also have not noticed any weight loss in fact it is trying to creep up. Inches are not really going down either but I am quite chuffed with my arms as I can see definition when exercising and holding the weights. Today my stomach seems to be protruding more, but I am hoping that that means I have lost some inches/(cms more likely ) from elsewhere.
As for calories, I am trying to eat back part of my exercise calories and at the minute am aiming to eat NET calories at 1200 min.
If this tones me up half as good a some of the photos I have seen, I will be chuffed and am willing to forgo a couple of pound lost if need be.
Talk soon x0 -
Day one level 2 for me today - will let yuo all know how it goes!
I have taken photos for after the forst 10day son level one and i can see a difference in my stomach and rhe definition everywhere!
I am going too go hard and really push myself too do extra cardio each night along with level two too try get my weight loss going!
will let you know how it goes tonight!

Just did first day of level 2!
I did find parts of it challenging for example the final circuit cardio and i found my shoulders were burning in the strength. Sone parts were easier though so we will see how it goes!0 -
yes i found level 2 a LOT more challenging than level 1!Just did first day of level 2!

Day 2 today! will see if my body can cope a bit better!0
-
Still on level 1, did day 7 today. Tried level 1 and 2 yesterday and wasnt in much pain today so alls well. Still cant do push ups very well even on the modified version. Level 2's i did most things modified as i was just trying it out but i dont think ill cope well with all the sit up stances. Sticking with it so far.0

I wear a HRM and weigh 140.....I use 8-10 pound weights and I am super fit. I burn 200 calories EASY0

Hey all,
So, last time I tried this whole "new me" thing I did pretty well, kept reading 30DS posts and freaked out at how hard people made it sound. This time round I have a full on focus and can't really say no to it!!
I have just ordered it from Amazon and it should arrive this week which is exciting. For now as a bit of an intro I have found some of Jillians cardio classes on You Tube. If 30DS is anything like them....wow I am going to hurt!!!
Will let you know how it goes once I start but pretty excited to see the results!0 -
Hi Chloe, Hi everyone,
day 2 level 2 for me today. had a few days off not sure if it was perhaps one day too many as I could hardly lift my feet off the floor today. I do level 2 better than level 1. And that double skip rope at the end is a hoot trying to stay co-ordinated.
After your prompt Chloe I did take some photos. Can probably see a small difference but will see after this next level. Don't know if I have mentioned this already but it is actually the area just under my belly paunch that seems to be toning first. Weird!
Keep on shredding!!!0 -
Just did day 3 level two! after two days of rest from 30ds (but other light exercise done instead) i have too say that day 3 was a lot easier than day 1 and 2. Maybe my body was really tired before hence the two days rest needed! i feel a lot better now and although i don't enjoy it as much as level 1 it was good! and i feel great now!
I also tried out my new ankle weights before i did it- i just did a few jumping squats etc too try them and they are Awesome! really felt my butt working which is what i am aiming for!
Im going on a bike ride this arvo- dad asked em to go with him so bring on the new challange! Happy Shredding 0 -
Trixiemou- do u mean that pouch under your belly button - the annoying fat pouch! haha?? cos i can feel that going as well!0
-
Hi Chloejaneg100, Ha how formal does that sound. Yes the same pouch, but its wierd as it is going from the bottom first, if you know what I mean, and I know its sounds gross, but little pockets of fat seem to be moving around, hopefully just before they go! Any one else noticed this.
I do have a bit of a problem tho as I slipped on the wet stone stairs yesterday and knocked my back so do not know yet if I am aching of day 2 or off the knock. May just have to take it easy for a couple of days.
Have a good weekend everyone, and keep on shredding!
ps, no I haven't got ankle weights either, no I mean I really haven't....... I did see something on here about 'brazilian butt' don't know if you have looked at that yet.0 -
I'm on day 6 level 1. Definitely like her routines & the quick pace that she moves onto the next exercise, but a few of them are still giving me a run for my money. The side lunges/lateral raises & the final bicycle crunches still kill me (& I'm only using the 3 pound weights). But I am seeing a bit of improvement since day one. I can actually get through the entire routine now without cutting anything short, except for the squats/bicep curls, which I have to improvise with standard squats due to one knee that I hurt in one of many falls.
Also incorporating Butt Bible that I started tonight & love, along with daily 2.5 mile walks. Hoping to make it through the full 30 days, but I must say I'm quite frightened of level 2 from many of the comments I've read.0 -
Hi Everyone,
Newbie here! My 30 Day Shred has arrived and I will be starting on Monday. I gave up smoking at the beginning of the month but I have replaced the nicotine with food! I am hoping that if I start exercising, I will be more likely to continue being smoke free and I will lose the weight I have put on over the past few years.
My friend is also doing 30 Dat Shred so hopefully that will give the motivation to succeed.0 -
hmmmm i just looked at that butt bible on youtube! im going to give it a go now before my level2 30DS.
ahhhhhhh 8 weeks till its bikini time!! stressing!0
