Okkkkkk, finished day 2 this morning! Thought it would be easier.....HE'LL NO! I do think though that it was due to me pushing a bit harder today, trying to do it right as opposed to yesterday! Jumping jacks got a lil tiny bit better, bicycle sit up thingies royally kicked my *kitten*! Burnt 240 calories according to the HRM! Weird thing is that my scale has been showing me a BMI of 45 - 47% fat for the past 3 weeks however this morning was 38.5 when I got out the shower! :bigsmile:

Just imagine how much better your bra band will sit there from burning that fat off!

ok, so im no medical professional, but if i were you, i would listen to me body, try it, ease into it slowly, if you feel discomfort, stop. im working with a recovering dislocated tendon in my knee, i cant do everything so i modify, my squats are not as low as most of you, but i try and do half a squat rather than not squatting at all 0 -
Hiya everyone!
Okay so day 2, not too bad. My body was achey from 2 hours of Taekwondo last night but I made myself get up at 8am (!!!) and do the shred.
Nice to feel tighter tummy muscles. I'm so glad she talks you through the different crunches, I can actually feel that my stomach has done some work. Much better than the gym where I do only cardio and never know how to do my stomach.
Feeling positive!
Anyone else going to take progress pics? I've taken a 'Before' picture and I'm taking the next one when I finish level 1 0 -

I've taken as well, will def do pics for every level! Just scared if theres no diff :noway:0 -
I ached like hell when I got up this morning, but I was surprised how quickly the aches went away when I started today. I think I did a lot better today because I knew what to expect- better form definitely gave me better stamina.
The cardio is still the worst for me. I can honestly say I was nearly in tears doing the jump rope thing. Even after a shower, my legs are screaming.0 -

Me too! Very scared. Got to try not to be too hard on myself. Cutting my calorie intake should help too.
We can all come together on day 11 and celebrate or commiserate :P That includes you, lilalief!0 -
OK- day 2 down. Plan to do some yoga tonight to help with the soreness- I think part of why JM makes me so sore is I need more post-work stretching. Will let you guys know if it helps.0

Day 2 done - have to organize what weights I will use. Been using 5 lbs for shoulders and dam are they sore.
Loving the combination of exercises from her. Love doing the cardio & weights altogether.
Haven't taken my before measurements so I guess I should do that so I have a comparison when I'm done
-will keep you posted
Have a great day all - Day #3 tonight!!!!0 -
I'm fine so far. Im about to do day 2 in an hour or so, I was fine all yesterday, I woke up with aching pecs although not incredibly noticable so I'll be okay. I'm going to the gym after I go 30DS because if I go before I wont do 30DS rofl, I'll be like 'nah I got my calories done for the day'.
When I go to the gym (someone asked on the first day check in if anyone does anything besides this --yes) I run at least 4 miles (I HATE running on treadmills but it's already 90+ degrees here in FL unless you're up at 5AM when it's dark) and I do a mix of strength training (Usually lifting and planks/crunches etc.)0 -

It was not nearly as terrible as yesterday!! but yesterday my arms were so shakey I couldn't use them for an hour. so maybe tomorrow I will actually use a weight, lol.
Today went much better than yesterday to my surprise. my arms and lower back were sore. but it seems like it went by much faster and a tiny bit easier than it did yesterday.
I pushed just a teeny bit harder on the bicycle crunches and squats today since my abs and legs were only a little hurty.0 -
Ill be doin gday 2 tonight - ... My arms are sore, but that could be I used 8lb weights last night hahahahaa
my HRM says I burned 170cal - I really need to take my measurements this week.
Hope everyon ehas a great day!0 -
