I am on Day 9 Of the 30 DS. I have read all the posts and do not have the same results. I only modify the jacks due to a bad hip. Any idea why I don't see results? I have also been doing Just Dance daily for 30 to 45 minutes since January 1st.

I'm on day 20 and don't see and real improvement. I measure and nada. I' do a mix of advance and some modification, but I try to keep up with the advanced moves. Hopefully I'll se *something* when I start level 3.

I didn't take any measurements beforeI started, just pictures, but I can see a slight difference now on day 10

I just finished my day 8 of level 3 so 2 more days then I'll be done with the 30 Day Shred. At first I didn't see much differences but thanks goodness for pictures because I can see it now! I only lost about 3lbs.

I started on Monday 29th, but I'm taking a rest day as I hurt SO MUCH! I'm a BIG girl struggling with weight loss, with at least 60lb to lose so I'm finding it pretty hard going but already I feel better. I'm so inspired by the stories on here - I weighed and then measured myself all over at the beginning but now I'm going to take photos too, never thought of it before.

Thank you for inspiring me!

Well done to everyone! I'm doing this at the moment, but am not sure how is best to log it on my exercise here. Any advice?

I have been advised by others on MFP to log it as circuit training, so that is how I log it. My HRM shows that I burn more calories than the MFP calculation but I always try to underestimate calories burned and overestimate calories in. Its been working so far.

Started the 30 DS on 4/1/13. My last day was yesterday

I did the 30 days in a row as a goal for myself to excercise every day for a month just to prove I could. You don't have to do it that way and should of course take rest days if you need them. In fact, I have read on here that Julian actually recommends the rest days. The first few days were tough and I was a little sore, but pushed through it. I was out of shape so I was breathing heavy during the cardio and sweating hardcore. I bought a heart rate monitor which told me I was burning 310-340 calories per workout. I know this seems like a lot compared to some people, but from reading feedback from other people my size and fitness level, it seemed pretty accurate, as my heart rate was usually above 80% through most of the workout (really out of shape in the beginning). The workouts are about 27 minutes including the warm up and cool down. I logged under cardio. By the time I got half way through level 2 and to level 3 my body got better adjusted and wasn't sucking wind the whole time. Julian isn't that bad; I just yell back at her when she is too pushy and bossy

I would recommend this workout for beginners. There are two girls that do the moves and one actually does modified versions of about 95% of the moves. You can build up your endurance then try to do the move full out.

Here are my results (sorry no pictures)

Weight Loss: 2.6#
Measurements:
Neck (-.5")
Waist (-3.5")
Hips (-2.5")
Lower Leg (-1.3")
Wrist (-.9")
Thigh (-2.5")
Bicep (-1.5")
Total Inches Lost (-12.7")

Good luck to everyone! I will be trying the 30 Days Ripped soon....with rest days

Well after reading all the posts I have decided to give it a try. I need to change up the routine that I have going on right now so this is perfect. I am going to have to make sure I take my before and after pictures so I can see the results.

bump.

I've tried to start this so many times but normally give up when I get to level 2 as I hate planks lol.

Have re-started with day 1, level 1 today. Great results everyone and thanks for sharing. Need these pics to keep me motivated!

Try level 3 instead of 2. It was harder, but better. And more fun, in my opinion anyway.. I quit everytime i got to level 2 until a friend recommended I skip it.

I tried this DVD and I found that I gained weight???? Why?

Also are you supposed to do 30 days in a row or take a break? Seeing results makes me want to Try again but I don't want to gain lbs

Someone may have already responded to this, but building muscle isn't going to make the scale drop, and in most cases it will go up. I hate the scale, and refuse to confide in it.

I just measure inches. The scale can be very discouraging when you're strength training and building muscle. Hope that helps.
