Well, apparently, I hadn't banked on February being a short month... so, a quick look at the calendar revealed that I'd be a day over. So, in order to complete the full program before I fly to Edinburgh on 1st March (YAY!! Never been, cannot wait! :bigsmile: ), there had to be a day in which I would have to do two sessions...:noway: and, guess what, I went and picked today.

So, I did L1 D10 as well as L2 D1... oh my!!! I suppose this must be what it felt like when I started 10 days ago... I can't quite recall as the pain numbed my memories also :laugh:

Anyway, it's tough. And I'll have to do it all over again tomorrow... :sad:

Have a good eve, peeps xxx

L2 D6!! Still improving. Need a break during those squats with v raise or what have you (in the last strength circuit) - even with 3-lb weights my arms are too weak!

I'm late on this challenge but I'd started right after the Super Bowl. Today...I complete L1 D10. i never did my thigh and calf muscles so I think I'm going to do those tomorrow morning before I go any further...


Anyone adding in any additional workouts with the 30DS?

At least Im not the only one! I feel so bad just sitting on the floor during almost all of the move. Haha. I just cant help it its so exhausting! Im like, what is this. I never took breaks level 1, am I doing something wrong ( I guess it would mean Im doing it right if Im dying ) but I feel so guilty because I feel like Im not getting a lot out of it!

Oh well, day 4! Almost halfway done.

yeah don't beat yourself up about it but remember that you aren't burning as much calories if you are just laying there.. I would say unless you are injured or out of breathe, stop for a few seconds and keep going.

Just started level day one, level one today! I'm super excited!

Today I just used water bottles instead of weights. I move a lot + promised myself I would never buy dumbbells again until I get settled. I think tomorrow I'm going to start working in resistance bands for everything except the overhead presses... or whatever the very first set with weights was called.

I probably drank a full liter of water during the work-out. (It wasn't from my weights, don't worry.) I can tell beyond the routine itself, I'm going to be challenged to make smart choices so I can stay hydrated.
