    is there alot of cardiop on this?
    i tried her body revoution set that cost 150.00 and tore my meniscus in my knee, had to have surgery and am never going to be able to function normally again with that leg...i need to do SOMETHING tho.....please let me know!

    I'm recovering from a badly injured knee, I ruptured all but one of my ligaments. I'm awaiting reconstructive surgery later in the year. I also have hypermobility syndrome which means I can't do anything too high impact, especially with my arms as my shoulders are prone to dislocation.

    I am doing the 30DS, I am only on level one, so can't comment on how the other levels are - but in Level one I have had to modify a lot of the cardio. I can't do anything that requires jumping (so the jumping jacks, skipping jumps and butt kicks) but instead I just do things I can do (jumping jack arms, whilst stepping side-to-side, or the boxing move, which I can do). Just try it and see what you can do. I never dreamed I'd be able to do as much as I can do, and wish I had tried sooner.

    Make sure you post results! :) I have it sat on my HD but injuries and final month of a degree prevent me from starting it for about a month but after that I'm gonna do it! Really excited for it :)

    I'm doing it, I'm on week 3 and level two. It's awesome, I'm loving it and totally seeing results! I have already noticed how much stronger I am.

    Also I'm new on here so any new friends are welcome!!! :)

    Ditto here, I became so much stronger, it really helped my golf game a lot!

    I just bought the videos but not sure when to start level 2 or 3. How long are we suppose to go each level for?

    You do each level for 10 days x 3 levels to equal 30 days, hense, 30 Day Shred
    start with level 1 and then in 10 days do level 2 then in 10 more days do level 3
    I did it with taking a rest day Saturdays and it worked great, going to start again tonight!

    I'm tracking it as circuit training. I've read that some track it that way while others track it as aerobic.

    This is my second time through it and I do it every day!!! I love seeing my pants get loose & losser through the program!! I've heard you are to take a break, but this time around I am not doing much else but the 30DS so I am plowing through it!!

    Malo, sticky rice.:)

    Agreed. I finished my first time through yesterday. I'm going to start second time around tomorrow. I missed one day and this time I don't plan to miss any. During the first round, I occasionally would add a little to each workout; for example, after finishing a level two workout, I flipped back in the DVD and did 15 minutes of the first level. Those days were challenging, but fun. I'll try to throw that variation in a few more times in this second time through...especially if I'm able to do all of Natalie's tougher, full movements. My goal is that by my third or fourth time through the 30DS, I'll be able to do all the tough moves AND add on a few more minutes every day. :)

    I was tracking each workout as 20 minutes of circuit training. I was concerned about accuracy of MFPs calculation of my calorie burn so I bought a heart rate monitor. My application of the 20 Min Cir on MFP was fairly close for me (within 50 calories) but I'm happy to have my HRM now and have better accuracy. I'm 6'0", 275 lbs with a lean body mass of around 180, and I burn around 350-370 for each workout.

    Haven't tried it before, but it seems like everyone is raving about it. Think I will give it a try.

    hi. I started this (age 54) and am on day 4 of level 3 - its a killer but SO worth it - am seeing real results in clothes loose and some weight loss as i am following a diet as well. I will certainly keep it up - not sure if you start at level 1 again or carry on doing level 3 .. anyone know? oh, and add me if you want too!

    Hi! I am doing the 30 day shred too. I"m on day 18 so I'll be starting level 3 in a few days. I have already lost a few inches. Haven't stepped on the scale, mainly because I would rather lose inches anyways. Level two is more intense cardio wise but I love it. So definitely do it! :)

    I love the attitude you have about not stepping on the scale. I have adopted that attitude with this workout as well because I want my clothes to fit again and look great in my clothes and sometimes looking at the scale can discourage you. I don't want t be skinny, I want to be toned and fit. Can't wait to get to level 2.
