The top of my legs are by far the most sore...how about you girls?

I don't have hand weights so I'm just using cans for now. Probably less than 2 lbs...but it's something. What are you girls using?

    So funny. for the past couple of days I too have been using cans. Mine are just under 3 lbs, but I figure it si better than nothing. And yes, my legs and butt are by far the most sore so far.

    Keep it up fellow shredders! We can do it!!

    Only Day 3 for me. My arms and shoulders really feel owie. My upperbody strength is so pitiful that I can barely do a pushup. Day 1 I counted it if I could get the girls off of the floor!

    I am using 2 lb weights, but hope to upgrade when I stop feeling like I want to die/hurl/pass out during curcuit 2. I will say that I definitely notice an improvement even during a short period of time. The most glaring is the fact that I can cheat less during the workout and that my knees feel stronger. I will persevere!

    I was using cans too until yesterday . . I got some 3lb (1.3kg) hand weights and boy did I notice a difference!

    My sorest part by far as of yesterday is my lower abs . . . had me doubled over yesterday with the pain. My old gym instructor told me I'd discovered my core LOL!!!

    Hopefully that means I'll shift a bit of my tummy flab!!!

    LOL... I guess my arms aren't as sore b/c I'm doing sissy can weights!! I'll have to get some real weights to feel the pain some more. I really need to tighten up my arms so this will be good...can't stand that flab!

    Definitely my legs. I can feel it most when I go up the stairs.
    I'm also a can user so maybe when I get the 3lb weights I ordered things will be different.

    Inner thighs (hate that side lunge but apparently need it). I am using 5 lbs but am thinking abut going up to 8 on some exercises.

    I'm using 3lb weights and so far they're perfect on everything except the chest flies.. I feel like I'm cheating or something because they're too easy. lol

    And I get pretty sore all over, but mostly it's my quads from all those squats. The first couple days, it was my chest/shoulders.. probably from my pathetic attempts at modifed push ups ;) It's getting easier though!
