    Day 1 complete for me! I did a test run on saturday to see what I was in for and I'm sore already!

    What weight dumbells are people using? I only have 2kg ones at the moment and they were way too heavy so I've switched to tinned tomatoes for now :laugh:

    I'm using 5 pound weights since that's the lowest I own. I might increase the increment but right now this is the one I'm sticking with. They're not too light that I can breeze through the entire routine without muscle fatigue, but not too heavy that I cant control the movement.

    How do you add 30 day shred to your exercise diary?

    If you have an HRM that's the best way to add it.

    I just started day 1 today. I tracked it as circuit training, and it was a good workout!

    I just finished Shred level 1 a few minutes ago and burned 200 calories :D I'm not sure I'm quite ready for level 2. I might stick to level 1 for a couple of more days since I'm still having trouble with some of the moves.

    I posted this as a separate topic but no one replied:

    I'm starting the 30-day Shred tonight. I've never done it before, and did an hour of cardio earlier and would like to do a little yoga later to wind down and for extra stretching to avoid soreness. Do you all do ONLY the 30-day Shred, or do you do other stuff with it? I'm okay with it taking the place of my strength training for now, but reluctant to give up my daily yoga and interval training on the treadmill.

    I started today on Aug 5 as well. I used 8lb weights and 5 lbs for a few. The video says do level 1 until you are ready for level 2.
    What I have seen here on MFP is people do it 10 days levels 1, 10 days level 2 then 10 days level 3.

    I do another workout after it, either Leslie Sansone WATP or jumping rope.

    I am using 5 pound weights because i feel the most comfortable with those, not to heavy and not to light either.

    How did you track the calorie burn in your MFP?
    I am starting this tomorrow & i was wondering how i was going to track this as a calorie burn and if i was even going to be able too.
    This really does more than just a calorie burn you need to look at really everything this is doing for you, because this gives you a little bit of cardio and a lot of strength.
