Just did the workout and I feel great. It was hard, but I pushed through and I'm so glad I did. It even inspired me to eat a very healthy breakfast! Can't wait to do it again tomorrow!0

Yay! I'm not dead! But man, I feel like falling over and going to sleep. It was definitely a very challenging workout for me. I can already see modifications I'm going to need to make. Knee issues and wrist issues had me doing push-ups as wall push-ups for now. Jumping jacks, I could do a few sets but then knees started bothering me so I would either jog in place or something else that kept my heart rate up. The floor work though, is really, really rough on my back. I just have a yoga mat and I'm on a hardwood floor, so I think I might need to invest in one of the thicker exercise floor mats I have seen. I also have to have a pillow under my head because if I lie completely flat, it triggers my vertigo. I hate my body's limitations that are out of my control. But, I will learn to adapt, and I'm still putting in as much as I possibly can physically. I can do this! WE CAN DO THIS!
Now, eating some lunch, drinking some water, and will head to the gym for some additional cardio.0 -
im happy i did it.

\o/ 1st day done! I am sweating now....0

I actually left my warm cozy bed & got this done before work this morning. Good thing, because it's turned out to be a crazy busy day! Let's keep it going!

I'm going to do mine here soon *crosses fingers* i haven't worked out in so long! i better be alive after this 0

Okay day one= butt officially kicked! I have not done high impact aerobics such as running in place or jumping jacks for, I don't know, 20 years or more? I usually do low impact stuff such as step aerobics. I think I will have to ease into this and do yoga and walking every other day. By the way I am trying to figure out how many calories this is burning. I read somewhere to enter it as circuit training? 20 minutes (even though the whole thing is 27 minutes or so I'm guessing part of that is her talking at the beginning as well as the warm up and cool down.0

I forgot how being on your feet all day can drain your energy in the evening, the cardio was the hardest part for me, the strength wasn't too bad. But I was sure tired, but I feel good that I did the workout...gotta keep on shredding!0

Last Friday I did a muscle pump class and my muscles are still sore from the class. I did however get up and goto my Zumba and stretch classes which I promptly followed up with the 30DS. I'm sorry I didn't do the 30DS first though, I barely made it through since I was tired and still sore. Tomorrow I'll do the DVD first and play my Zumba game 2nd (I have to play my game since there are no class tomorrow).0

I just finished this myself! Well done ladies. I track it as 187 calories because thats how many I burned with a HRM 0
-
Finally started today... Sorry bout that haha..
My leggies hurt sooooo much.0 -
Day one done! Feels great. Exhausting, but great!0
-
finished day 1, left knee is killing me right on the left side..smell like a wintergreen from the muscle rub, will see how it feels tomorrow may have to replace jumping jacks with something else? not sure what yet we will see what tomorrow brings.0
-
Day one done! Not so bad. I recently did the KettleWorx workout program and after the first workout, and the million or so squats I couldn't really sit, stand, walk or use the toilet without difficulty. I think it prepared me for this. The hardest part for me was the push-ups (I have always been very challenged by them) and the jump ropes. My HRM said I burned 291.
My goal for tomorrow is at least one more push-up before my arms give out and I hit the floor. That should be doable.0 -
I started yesterday in case I would need to take a few breaks in between. So today was my day two. It still kicked my butt but I felt better than yesterday. Didn't take as many breaks.
I have a chalkboard right at the front door that I have tracking the days for me. I put a Smiley every day I complete the level. 10 smilies each!0 -
I did it again. Although I didn't really had time, because I had to go for emergency fuse shopping (no electricity in the whole flat!) And this was a 30 minutes extra bicycle ride! But I did it. The third time now... And I feel great.
Now I have 15 min for shower and cooking till my dance partner comes over for lunch, preparing and training...
Enjoy your shred!!0 -
Dripping sweat on day two. Gross but awesome. I'm really trying to push myself and not take the easy way out. That second set of pushups and second set of side lunges really took some motivation.0
-
I didn't get to starting yesterday, it was just one of those days. I WILL start today. Still haven't located my tape measure though. I found one of the kids rulers yesterday, so I'm going to use some twine and measure that 0
-
After doing it yesterday my quads feel like they've been hammered on for several hours today. I hurt walking up and down stairs as well as the process of sitting down or standing up. I think I will do yoga and stretching today and maybe a bit of walking.0

Nice job...this is where I tend to fail: "Yeah, I have to be at work today. I'll work out when I get home." Three hours before I leave work, I'm thinking, "I totally need to do that workout...but then again, I'm under my calorie goal." After work: "man, I'm tired. There's always tomorrow." That's why you're my new role model. I need to get up and do it before work.0 -
Day one, DONE! Man, I forgot how much I hate the lunges.0
-
I need to push to do it today. Worked yesterday until 5p, had to head back at 2a, ran home 530a to let hubs get to work. Got the kids up and to daycare and back at work at 8. I meant to leave early but ended up working until 2p. Ok, it's only 27 minutes right? Just keep swimming, just keep swimming.... 0

The jumping jacks are hard on my knees, as well. I just jog in place and do the jj arm movement. It is in the cardio section, so as long as we raise our heart rate, I think it will work. At least I'm claiming that!0

Absolutely. As long as you are raising heart rate that is totally cool.
Today would be my day 3 but my sicklyness got the better of me and I really needed the rest. Was able to get outdoors for a jog and later a walk, but I didn't want to push myself too much.
So with tomorrow I will be caught up to everyone!0 -

Yay! You've just given me a wonderful idea. I will march into tomorrow's workout fearless. Thank you for your creative modification. You just saved me from frustration. 0 -
The beginning is half of every action. - Greek Proverb
just got this in my daily peace quote email and it makes me start my 30ds. Today I feel like no.... I don't want to... No.... i need a rest.... no.... it's too much.... no... no... no... but I already did my kettle bell training and I felt better after. Then I had an hour rest doing some admin stuff on my laptop and drinking a green smoothie... and now let's start 30 ds and then go for the rest of my day... It's only a 3hrs meeting about restructuring a corporate dropbox, a 120 somatic experiencing session and then 240 min of dance teaching....
But now I did it! I'm done with it for another day. Day 4. They say you need to do something 5days in a row so it get's in your routine... let's hope this is true
Go for it girls! And enjoy!0 -
Day two and after taking a day off of painful stair climbing and sitting/standing I felt like I could go longer on the cardio today. Work at the schools and we had a two hour fog delay so I got it in this morning. I am feeling a little bit more endurance- maybe a tiny bit but it's a start! Keep going, don't give up! I am looking forward to when I will be able to do it two days in a row. Tomorrow is family coming all day long with lots of food so I don't think I'll do anything other than walk in the afternoon since it's supposed to be beautiful outside. But it's something, right? Happy shredding!0

Day 5 done. But I had to skip the last 5 min. Not because it was too hard, but because of time management
I had 40 min till I needed to go to work. This gave me a part or nothing dillemma. So I decided on a part. I did it till the first strength of circuit 3. Then I jumped to stretching under the shower and run to teach some french.
So my dance students tonight will get an extea hard warm up and I can make up for the misding minutes ;-)
Habe fun all!0
