Ripped in 30 - Month of August - Who is with me?

I started Ripped in 30 yesterday!! I'll send you a friend request and others can do the same! AWESOME!!! I'm hoping this will make my abdomen decrease in size, which it hasn't yet after 2 1/2 months!

Hey everyone, sorry I've been missing in action lately. This pain just won't let up, but I've decided that you are all putting me to shame since I started this thread so I aint slackin' no more!

SO I started back at Day 1 again. I may need to change things up a bit with the ab work which is annoying but I just cant do it with this pain under my rib.

Wondering...when I did day 1 today my knees didn't feel good at all. They started hurting in the first week of Ripped and have hurt every day since, even during my break! Anyone else having knee problems?

Yes since starting RI30 my knees have been bothering me. Well its actually right above my knee. The muscles get so sore and hurt for the rest of the day. I think its from all the squats and lunges. In time it gets better though.

I'm still in week 1, but even so, I can't go as deep into the lunges. I guess if we try to go the lowest we can, that's okay

I had to have a day off ripped today, my left bicep is too sore for those moves. But I did the first 2 workouts from kickboxing fastfix instead.

Really struggling with week 3 and I only need to do it 3 more times!!

If i did it 7 days a week i'd be dying! I only do it 5 days a week and my body still hurts on the rest days! I took a few days off because my knees were bothering me and i had shin splints. Start week 4 day 1 tomorrow!!! Scared!!

I normally have 1 day off a week but I'm trying to do each week 7 times until I move on. Hopefully I'll get back on it tomorrow!

Gotcha! Thats awesome! Its just hard for me! I jsut finished week 4 day 1 and my knees and wrists are killing me! I dont think its as bad as week 3 but im hurting! Good luck!

Day 5 of week 3 done. I hate it, I'm so tempted to move on to week 4 for a change as I am starting to not want to do it and I'm worried I might start quitting! Eeek.

I'm with you on that one! After how much my knees and wrists hurt last night i wanted to give up on RI30. I made adjustments during some of the moves but i hate doing that because i feel like im not getting the full workout. So now i need to decide if i can continue week 4 with adjustments or if its going to continue to hurt my wrists and knees! I hate quitting and i really dont want to quit when im on the final week but its not worth hurting myself either. Ugh! I guess ill have to give it another go and see if it hurts as bad as day 1! I only did each week for 5 days because i was done with the routine after the 5th workout! I didnt realize how out of shape i was until doing this dvd! If your bored or just sick of week 3 move up to week 4! Just be careful because the moves are tough! Good luck!

I did week 4 today as I just couldn't face anymore week 3 and I much preferred it! Still tough but I like the moves in this section better. Phew.

Its 8:30 at night and I have to do week 2 day 2. Not excited to get my booty up but I know I'll feel better afterwards. definitely afterwards cause I was so out of breath yesterday during high knees. Jillian micheals kicks my butt

I know what you mean! Shes kicked my butt since i started! Its one of those love/hate relationships! I hate her during the workouts when im dying and love her when im done and see results! Good luck! Week 2 is definately way better then week 3!! Week 3 was brutal!

Wow great results!

Day 2 of week 4 done today. I quite like week 4!!

I just finished 30DS yesterday and started RI30 today. Felt like a real break after level 3 of 30DS. Looking forward to taking it the next step!

Day 4 of week 4 done.

I'm having modify a bit more now as I've been to the dr today and been told I have an ulnar nerve entrapment. Been getting pins and needles in my left arm for a while, do am trying to avoid the moves which will irritate it!

great job, cant wait to be here.
Can I ask how is your progress weight loss or inches wise?
I have not lost any weight since I started but I can see a difference in pics.
I am around 165- 168 and the scale does not move from there.

Hi everyone, I wonder how many of us are still going for the gold? I hope all of us. I am on week 2 Day 5. Did not work out for a couple of days, but back on track.
Happy Tuesday all.

I'm still in! I'm starting week 3 tomorrow, I do it 6 times per week, and I seem to be losing weight much faster than on 30DS.

I'm almost done with week one of RI30 (finished the Shred on Monday). I also plan to do 6 days a week. I feel like I will lose weight faster with Ripped at well. I don't know why, but the workout feels easier in some ways than Shred, but I work harder? Do you think it's because we're stronger now?

Hope everyone is hanging in there!
