30 Day shred question ~

Hey!
So a few days ago I bought the 30 Day Shred.
I rarely exercise at all. I spend a lot of my time sitting down.
But I'm on day 2 of the 30 Day Shred, and my muscles feels fine. I sweat like crazy during the work out,
and my legs feel a bit weak for a while after - but most reviews I've read (and forum posts) have said that
their muscles were sore for days afterwards.
I do the whole thing from start to finish and, like I said,
sweat like crazy, but there's been no lasting burn in my muscles or anything
Am I doing something wrong, or not pushing myself hard enough?

I wasn't that sore afterwards
If it's not challenging enough, add heavier hand weights, weight during cardio and do more than one round at a time.
Ripped in 30 gave me more of a burn0 -
Keep at it!
What weights are you using?0 -
I'm using the 1lb weights, I'll have to pick up some heavier ones after Christmas.
I'll try and do another round afterwards:)0 -
1 lb is nothing, 3 lbs at the least.0
-
I use 6 lbs...my arms are sore afterward for sure.0
-
i use 5 lb weights. you can keep holding the weights when you do the cardio also. ripped in 30 is definitely more of a challenge0
-
I started with 5 lbs and am now up to 8 lbs and phase 3. i am trying to work up to 10 lbs.0
-
1 lbs is absolutely nothing - get 3, 5 and 8lbs weights - and start with the 5lbs...0

I didn't have lasting soreness from the workouts in level 1, but I definitely hit the point of fatigue/poor form in all the workouts. I am on level 3 now and have seen a LOT of changes in my body. I sweat like crazy too, and have to scream/grunt my way through some of the moves.
I actually alternate between 2 lbs, 3lb and 10lb weights for the moves - if they are starting to get to be too easy, I go up to the next weight level.0 -
I'll have to pick up some heavier weights after Christmas.
Definitely feeling some soreness today in my lower stomach.
Embarking on Day 3 in about an hour.0
