Good morning fellow shredders! Well, I'm on day 13 of Level One and still think I'm going to be here for a while. When I started I was pretty out of shape (and still am).........but today I'm wearing my size 5's to work! I hadn't been able to zip them for.....I don't even know how long. For those of you that are on day 1, you may feel REALLY sore tomorrow (I know I was the day after my first workout). When I tried to get out of bed my calves felt like they were just going to give out and my chest (well I guess it was more like the little bulge under my arm pit) was killing me. Just stick with it, and you will be VERY happy with your results. Can't wait to hear what everyone thinks of the shred0

Hello everyone!!! I am on day 5 today of the shred! I love it so far (even though I missed 2 days this weekend
) But with this group, I am hoping to make it to 30 nonstop!
Good luck today everyone and stick with it! You can do this!!!0 -
I'm a tad bit ahead of you ladies but, this is my girl Karma's group & I am all down for supporting her and this group!!!
Today is my Day 17 Level 2. I will be doing some upper body strength training as well. Have a Great day everyone!!!!0 -
I woke up late today but still completed day 5 of level 1. Feeling pretty good about it :-) Yesterday my boyfriend patted my butt and commented that he thinks it's getting firmer hehe. Not sure if that's true, but it was nice to say!0

Good morning! I just completed my first day of the video and WOW, 20 minutes can definitely exhaust you!
I decided to go ahead and post my pictures instead of waiting... sorry, I'm so wishy/washy!
Good luck to those of you who are beginning this journey today, we're one day closer to our dream bodies!0 -
Ok! I wanna join! I started this work out awhile ago but never really kept with it. My plan is to do it 2 - 3 AMs a week. I'm starting on Level 1 for now for atleast the first two weeks and see how I do.

Good luck everyone!0 -

Okay gang here it goes! Get ready to see some nasty pics of me! lol Hopefully they will change a bit when these 30 days pass.... Not sure if I did the measurements completely accurately, I usually have someone else do them for me, usually an instructor at the gym or my weight loss Dr. But I did them myself today so hope they are accurate....

I started day 1 today and ohmygosh!!! I kept telling myself, this will get easier. . . .umm. . ok. . . My problems "areas" on the dvd was the jumping jacks. Yep something so easy got the best of me(& it's part of the warmup, yikes!). I'm weighing in at 268 w/ osteoarthritis knees so it was painful. It was also difficult to go down onto the floor quick enough & get back up in time.I had to modify the squats due to my knees. The bike crunches were a challenge, heck the whole dvd was challenge! Prior to today, I was doing wii My Fitness Coach & recumbent bike. Love MFC.
I do have a Shred Q: how do I record it on my exercise diary? Looked it up in the database but no results. I know I burned a "few" calories <~>. I hope someone has some insight before the end of today (Mon) so I cn record it. thanks!!
I know I'll be checking in here often for encouragement & for us to share sob stories, oops I meant success stories!!0 -
Heya, i still don't have a measuring tape but I did day 1 this morning..bright and early (4:30). I definitely worked up a sweat, those side to side lunges were killer! I got 5 lb weights at Walmart.
I'm glad to say that all the crunches I've been doing at the gym have worked, I found the abs portions very easy. Not the cardio though!
CW: 1500 -
LeeAnna,
I put mine in as Circuit Training for 20 minutes.0 -
thanks Lilsuzie! will go do that now!
I bo't my dvd for $9 @ walmart. I was using 8# on My Fitness Coach & other strength ex. but went to 5# for Shred since this is higher reps. I heard/read somewhere that higher reps/lower weights were ideal for what I needed. I know I couldn't pull it off with the 8#ers on Shred!0 -
Just curious..is everyone just doing the shred? Or are you going to add some extra work out time into your day? I am thinking of doing the video 4-5 times a day..and at least 2-3 days adding an extra 20 minutes of something else..0
