So sorry to hear about your flu!! ^
I'm still here! Trying to go strong lol. I'm on Day 3 of Week 3 and am almost done with Level 1. Still kind of terrified to get into Level 2 as I'm still not mastering Level 1. I can do it all, but by the end I'm literally dying lol. But the good news is I'm down 3 lbs since I started and am seeing slight results!
Anyone still here?0 -
I'm almost completely done with Killer Abs-one more day on level three. I feel like there is a six pack under a layer of flab-I can feel how strong my muscles are below that little bit of flab. I also have the first two packs going.
I think I saw the most change during week two. 0 -

Nice! That's so great. I really want to get to that point. Did you do 6 Week Six Pack too or just Killer Abs? And his Killer Abs harder/more intense?0 -
I got home after 9pm last night so no time for level 2...first time I've missed all week though so that's pretty exciting. Also Tuesday was the first time I got through the T stand kicks without falling! Literally I just fall over...I have awful balance.
On slightly related note, has anyone noticed any differences with any other body parts while doing 6W6P? I've always had skinny lanky limbs, and now I can see the muscles in my legs...I never really thought about focusing on my legs until I actually saw muscles. My arms look a little meatier too, and as someone with no rear end to speak of, I think that has a little more of a lift too! I wish I had taken pictures of my entire body and not just my stomach, I never thought about it since it focuses on abs so much. If you're just starting out on this program, definitely take more before pictures!0 -
I have both. I completed 6w6p at the end of summer. They are both really good workouts. 6w6p has more of a cardio element to it than Killer Abs. I remember a ton of planks/pushup position in 6w6p-the third workout in Killer Abs has planks/plank moguls/stairclimbers and really is killer -the first two workouts of KA seem easier to me than 6w6p's. I finished this morning-took all I had to finish it! I am glad to put it on the shelf for awhile. 0

Looks like I was a little late on this one! I'm going to be starting 6W6P tomorrow Wish me luck - I'll keep everyone updated with results. 0

So I just started Level 2 and I am really not looking forward to doing it again today, or the next day lol. For some reason this level was extremely hard for me and I could barely keep my balance while doing all the lunges and stuff. I also had to pause the video a couple of times which is something I didn't have to do with the last level. I know that each new level of any Jillian video is always harder but this one really killed me.
Anyone else have this problem? Maybe I just need to practice the moves a bit more. Trying to have motivation to get through these next three weeks to see results, but I really have none right now, especially considering I can't find many before or afters for 6W6P.
Any motivation, anyone?0 -
I had (and have) major balance problems with level 2 haha. They get better though I promise! I still can't get through knees with abduction during the second circuit at that speed, but I can do T-stand kicks without falling down now, so it definitely gets easier.
Honestly I have a problem keep my balance during chops too. My knees are just all over the place haha.0 -

Haha okay, good to know! Not that you having balance issues is a good thing but I'm glad to know someone else out there had a similar problem. Level 2 is really tough but I'm hoping that just means I'm working harder and will get even better results!
Have you completed level 2 yet/what are your results so far?0 -

This is actually my last week...it basically looks like my entire midsection was corseted. I was about 114 pounds to begin with so I didn't really bother taking measurements, but I'll definitely post pictures once I'm done.0 -

Nice! That sounds actually really successful haha. Would love to see photos when you're done!0 -
Final results:

(the picture is too long and gets cut off, and I can't figure out how to make this into a hyperlink!)
I did each level for 3 weeks, and wound up doing it 4 times a week (that's just how my schedule worked out). Also took a week off between level 1 and level 2 because my schedule was just insane. Normal eating stuff blah blah etc.
I love the results and will totally do this again in a few weeks when it's a bit closer to summer. I still have pretty terrible balance but at least I'll look good falling on my *kitten*.0 -

Amazing! I can really see a difference. Haha and yeah definitely agree with you on the last part. Congrats on finishing!0 -

Thanks! I started a weight lifting-focused DVD yesterday, and it's so weird to not have Jillian yelling at me...the woman on this DVD is so soft spoken, I think I might do 30DS just because!0 -

Haha I bet. I'm afraid to switch from any Jillian DVD because I love her approach so much! What DVD did you start? I'm really looking to get more into strength training but wasn't sure if that was possible with a DVD.0 -

It's a Kelly Coffey-Meyer DVD...I am PRETTY sure it's this one:
http://www.amazon.com/30-Minutes-To-Fitness-Coffey-Meyer/dp/B00170C15O/
My husband has been using it for ages and I figured I ought to try something different. It's alright, all things take getting used to. It isn't nearly as heavy on cardio; I wasn't sweating profusely at the end, but there are different workouts programmed onto it that splices up the routines (they suddenly have different clothes, haha). I'm going to stick with this for a bit and see how I like it - also I have to get back on the treadmill and "train" for a half-marathon...HA.
I order The New Rules of Lifting for Women today (http://www.amazon.com/New-Rules-Lifting-Women-Goddess/dp/1583333398)...I read so many positive reviews, and it has workouts that are basically like DO THIS ON THIS DAY which is exactly what I need. Can't wait to try it out!0 -

I'll definitely check these out! That book actually sounds really awesome because I'm really looking into weight training and the "do this on this day" thing is also really what I'm looking for. Let me know how that goes!0 -
I'm glad to see others are doing 6w6p too alot of threads are for 30DS.. I was worried i was going to get bored and lose motivation so ive been doing 6w6p on MWF and other workouts on Tues and Thurs. so Sat i stuck in 30DS and Tues and Thurs are going to be 30DS. I'm in week 2..i know i have a long way to go. I can't really notice any changes as of yet so its kinda sad. the side planks are the worst. moved myself up to a 5lb weight now. when i started i had absolutely no upper body strength, but have gained some with all the planks and push ups in both videos.
I'm just getting back on this site so if anyone wants more friends add me :-)0 -
I got really sick as I was beginning level 2 of 6w6p so I had to take it easy for a while. I had gotten out of the habit of exercise for over a month, but plan to go back to 6w6p soon. I am currently doing RI30 week 1 and really like that for now.
Yes, the side planks are the worst in 6w6p! After 3 weeks on level 1, I still could not get the hang of them, but I could hold them a tad better then the first time I tried them0
