I am starting BR AGAIN today. I'd love to hear from anyone else who is starting it or has just started it. Tried twice and not got past week 2 but determined to do it this time.

    Just did workout 1. Felt quite sick and dizzy- not sure why. That's not happened before. I finished it but had to keep on stopping.

    Hi there. I started Body Revolution this week also. This is my first time trying it but it seems like a great program! Are you following the diet plan as well or just the work outs?

    No- not doing the diet plan. I'm a vegetarian so I can't. What workout/day are out on?

    I'm on Phase 1 day 5 (workout 2 tonight). I'm not doing the diet plan either. Just using this website and couting my calories.

    Today is day 3 for me on BR. I got dizzy/nearly fainted I think on day 1 too. I believe I forgot to breathe :yawn: . Day 2 I was paying much closer attention to that and it was fine.

    I am sore today that's for sure! I'm not doing the diet either.

    Hi. I am waiting for BR to come in the mail. If I get it soon I can join with you guys. Is it much harder than 30 day shred?

    I personally think if you've finished 30 DS, you'll fing level 1 OK. Remember though you can flow the adaptations by jumping , adding weights and using heavier weights. What's better is that. The workouts change more often to stop you getting bored.

    Hey Jaz, how are you doing? I just finished day 8. I'm getting better at the workouts but still can't do a push-up :sad: . It's the only thing I can't do so far!

    Well done. Have you tried just doing one? I'm really stiff again after the two workouts - I upped the weights. So changing programme to w1, w2, rest, run, w1, w2, run, rest.

    One push up? My upper arm/core strength is awful. But my legs are super strong. Even with the girly push-ups, I can't really even do one. Oh well, I'll keep trying!

    How about doing them standing up against the wall if you can't do them on your knees.

    I wear a Fitbit, so I just let that count my hopping around rather than logging it separately. Maybe someone else has a better suggestion for you!

    Lots. Of people log 20DS as circuit training. I would think this was similar.

    Are you excited about starting it staceypunk.

    Good Jaz! Today is day 12 for me. I'm still liking it. Push-ups and planks are still the hardest for me.
