Level 1

Instead of by weeks, I thought I'd split it into 4 levels as some of us may be starting later or sooner. This way we can discuss each levels and perhaps provide tips for each other.

I am on Day 3 of Level 1 and I am finding it hard to continue. Not because I don't love it, because I am physically so sore!! The moves are great and I have been doing them with 5lbs weight as well as kettlebells as some of the moves I think requires heavier weights but it is definitely putting a stress on my knees.

How is everyone finding it?

    My hamstrings, definitely the hamstrings. I always cry a bit during the warm up bending down/squat/stand up...my arms are tired but not sore...obliques hurt on the first day but okay now. My right knee is also hurting a bit...hopefully it's just soreness and not injury...

    Hi Guys! I've been a bit slack on posting. I have been doing Level 1 for the past 2 weeks. I've probably done it about 8 or 9 times in the past two weeks. The reason I am still doing it is because my fiance decided he would do it with me. So we have done it 4 times together. I'm coping pretty ok with it! I was really sore the first two days or so.

    I'm hoping to convince him to move up to Level 2 tomorrow! He is struggling a little bit. During the second circuit he usually tells me he hates me.... and his preference would be to be obese rather than do Jillian. Despite this he gets up and does it the next day.

    I hope to be a bit more active in my posts from here on in!
