3 kg dumbells - 30 day shred --

Ice_azure

Hiya,

I have been asking questions ealier too. I thank you all for helping me out.

Being in a busy schedule, I haven't been able to answer back to every body.

I have been confused and struggling what to do.

I initally though of doing insanity but gave up in 5 days - So hard for me to keep up!
So I now started 30 day shred- 5th day - level 1-

also thinking of doing killer buns and thighs - may be in a week or 2

I have sore for the first 3 days that I could hardly climb the stairs or sit down with 30 day shred!

In some of the excercises it has ben hard to do with 3 kg! but I managed to do what ever I can.

I have read somwhere that Jillian doesn't recommend heavy weights?So my question is is 3kg dumbells (around 6.6lbs) of weight is okay? - She recommends (3lbs to 5lbs)
will it make me bulky with 3kg weights??

I bought 3kg weighs and now wondering if I bought the wrong ones

Any one( a women) with experiece here who has been doing 30 day shred with 3 kg dumbells and thier outcome has been great? may be with motivational pics??

MAny thanks in advance!

You certainly won't get bulky, that's for sure.

I use a few different weights depending on what the movement is and as I've progressed, I've increased the weights I use for each. For some, I couldn't lift any weight at all at the start, never mind my 1.5KG dumbbells, for other movements, I started off with the 5KG.

I just have them lined up ready to use as I work my way through the routine and after a few days I've know if I'm ready to move up a weight or stick with what I've been using for a while longer.

I'm sure there are some people who could use 3kg (or more!) for everything right from the start but what I'm saying is, if you can't, don't worry, start off lighter and work your way up, it's the progress that counts
