    i have this video set sitting in my entertainment center.... maybe I'll pull it out tonight and do it.
    joining all of you might give me motivation to finish it. I started it last spring and never made it to the full 30 days because I started running instead.

    i'll let ya'll know tomorrow

    Ill be doing my 5th day of Level 2 tonight. I love it. I did level 1 for 15 days and lost 5lbs/9inches. I used 3 & 5 lbs weights. It was hard at first but got easier. Now on Level 2 my body feels like jello all over again- i just stay on the floor for a good 5 minutes when im done haha. My best advice is just keep moving. I found the jump rope difficult at first and if i just couldnt do it i would substitute one of the cardio moves i could do like jumping jacks or the punches. Just keep your body going. Its hard but not impossible and defanitly worth it.

    it is suppose to be done 10days na ?
    Oh wow that really great that u lost 5lbs
    m sure you look so fit after this 30day shred

    I just hope that day 1goes smooth :D:D

    Hey everybody.. I'm on Level 2 and just did day 3. I'm using 3 lb weights. I'm only 28 and never thought of myself of having bad knees..but they are killing me! This is supposedly a common problem, so please just take it slow and don't get over excited, lest you hurt yourself like me.

    Level 1 was certainly do-able to me and by the end I was adding my own little flair (i.e. doing more reps or doing double jump ropes). Level 2 is HARD, and this is the general opinion from everyone. About half way through my body feels like a jello jiggler and I actually moan in pain on this one. It IS however...getting just a little better with each day though.

    Good luck everyone! I'm excited to take a before and after photo and I HOPE I see the changes like so many here.

    I'm on level 1 Day 9. The first few days I was really sore! My first weigh in after I started was day 5 and I had lost 2.7 lbs! I measured and took pictures when I first started but not going to measure or take more pictures until day 30. Can't wait. I'm just using 2lb weights. I'm quite a bit older and heavier so I didn't want to get weights any heavier. I only had the option of 2lb and 5lb when I got them. Best of luck to you!

    I was thinking of starting but was worried as I read it was bad for your knees.

    worrying is just an excuse :D until and unless you have some serious problemsin your knee's
    you are just 26 ! :D
    people have suggested that one shouldn't rush
    just keep that in mind and start it :)
    do let me know bout day 1
    NO EXCUSES ! :)
    GOOD LUCK

    I do 30 day shred but i actually don't do it the way i should.. I actual like to do level 2 and 3 because its where i burn the most calories and some days i will do them back to back.. I like pushing my body.. Jill says that's the only way your going to see results and it actually has helped me a lot.. going to go back to a strict diet.. it really works..wish you a lot of luck

    I did it with 10lb weights, most people are using between 3-8 lbs from what I can see. I would reccomend trying a few different weights and finding the one that makes the moves a challenge but still doable. Im excited to do it again tomorrow, I really liked it.

    Yes each level is supposed to be done 10 times. I did it 15 times for a few reasons.

    1.) It was really tough for me
    2.) I wanted to do the full blown moves not just the modified versions before i move on
    3.) I have exersize induced asthma so i try to give my body the time it needs before throwing something more intense at it

    Its whatever works for you. Some people move on after 5 days if the level is no longer a challenge. I moved on when my shirt was no longer drenched in sweet after every workout.

    Try 5's the first day. If you have to stop during every move the next day bump it down to 3's. If you can do everything then bump it up. I use different weights depending on the particular move. Use the heaviest ones you can that your still able to do it 100%.

    My nutritionist recommended this to me today. Looking at it on Amazon now. I am definitely buying this!

    I heard that the ripped in 30 by Jillian is great as well. I ordered both from Amazon yesterday and keep checking my email for shipping confirmation - I can't wait to get started!
