    I started yesterday for the second time. Level 1 is not as hard as I remembered it being but my arms are killing me today because I am using much heavier weights. I got through level 1 easily enough last time but hated level 2 and only made it to day 8. This time I really want to finish it so any motivation would be greatly appreciated!

    I started on Friday 4th Jan, have missed one day so far due to lack of time. will do session 4 when I get home today.

    I am aching a little but not sweating as much as I thought I would, so have been doing other things such as yoga and zumba.

    I watch it on youtube, no point in buying the dvd. I have got some weights though and use the 2kg and the 1.1kg for the last exercise which is side lunges with upward row. I find that the hardest part.

    Feel free to add me or start a group up.

    I did it April last year , it was great - I was so much stronger and fitter by the end.
    I just started my 2nd round yesterday so if there's a group going I'll join !

    ooh yay. I just tracked down my DVD and was planning to start tomorrow. I would LOVE some extra motivation/accountability! I have attempted it before, day one kicks butt...very sore the following day. Wish I didn't know what I was in for! But the success stories are too hard to ignore!

    Hi,

    Im starting today too. Had made up my mind to do it and then I saw your thread. Always better to do it with some friends.
    I did it last year and lost weight and inches but due to holiday eating I really need to do it again.

    Add me if you want a shred buddy :-)

    Hi would love to do this with you too, today will be my fourth day, it's a tough workout but short which is what I really like about it and already feel like I have lots more energy.

    I started Day 1 yesterday (Jan 7th) and this is my first attempt at it. The before and after pics made me a believer along with all of the success stories here on MFP. I'm in & please feel free to add me/friend me. Let's keep each other motivated and accountable for our actions. (Work-outs and Nutrition!)

    I'm in! I just did my second day of level 1 last night. I did a round last February with 3 lb weights, this time I'm using 5 lbs. The push ups and lateral raises still kill me!

    For my new friends(thanks or the adds) I have some before and after pictures on my profile from the last time I did it if you need inspiration. I've just looked at them myself and I cant believe how toned my belly was! Definitely need to get back there. I recommend taking measurements and photos before you start.

    Good luck everyone

    I completed it about a year and a hlaf ago. I made it about 40 days. I got in great shape. The best I have ever been. Life got in the way and I gained back 15 lbs. I am starting agin and would love to be a part of a group trying the same. I am a single mom, but it is time I stop making excuses!

    Hi everyone!

    Would love to join the 30 day shred gang! (If you'll have me?)

    I started last week but the weekend got in the way lol - am on day 4 today

    I did Jilliam's Ripped in 30 last year and thought it was good so thought I would try this one this time, then do Ripped in 30 after if anyone else is intrerested? - just to keep up the exercise.

    I did take before pictures so want to do this well and see results. Not necessarily to lose weight but to be more toned and just generally more fit than I am.

    So what's the plan - do we all post up when we have done our daily workout?

    This thread is perfect!!! I was planning on restarting today! I finished 10 days in December but then got busy with finals and vacation and excuses... But now I'm ready to finish it then do ripped in 30!

    I would seriously urge anyone to do the full 30 days and stick to it! I did it and I lost 9 and a half pounds in 30 days but in the end it really wasn't about that, it was a huge achievement for me, I've never stuck to anything before, I've always given in or made an excuse but Ifinally sticking with something which, I personally, found hard is massive for me! I feel like I can do anything now (corny I know) and it has been integral to my weight loss!

    It's a great way to kick start your weight loss if you're just starting out or you've hit a plateau!

    Good Luck :)

    I started 30 day shred yesterday. Also started MFP yesterday so I need friends. It would be cool to find people doing the same workout as me. Anyone feel free to add me. I need support and love to support others.

    I just started yesterday as well. I've done Level 1, Day 1 a couple times but never kept going. I'm challenging myself this time and pushing myself to do the whole 30 days. :smile:

    I just started today, that hurt! Going to persevere with it though, have a couple of friends here who are doing it too, will probably need them to stay motivated.

    Good luck to you all. I completed 30ds the day after Christmas, and had great results( 8lbs & 16.5" gone). I am actually on day 3 first week of ripped in 30. Just stick with it, believe me it will pay off. Make sure you take before pics and measurements.
    YOU ALL CAN DO IT!!!!!!
