    You'll be sore for the first few days, but if you keep pushing through, eventually your body will adjust and it will be easier for you. Just do what you can. If you need to take a break every 5 minutes, do it. And as you continue, you'll find yourself needing less and less breaks. :)

    Move on. Find anther workout. Then come back to this one later after you build better endurance.

    Im 228lbs and can do this perfectly fine because i was doing running and tae bo before it . Probably built up my endurance level. Try running or some other form of cardio and then go back to it , you will see how bareable it is then .

    I second this. I've been running for months before starting it and I found I could easily last through the 25 or so minutes.

    ^^This!! Try low impact workouts, pilates, yoga. They are all great workouts that will help you build up strength in your muscles safely. Listen to your body, if it's too much, take a break or modify it. You don't want to injure yourself.

    I wish i'd known about the body revoulotion dvd before i started this one!

    Like everyones been saying - i was going to give up after the first day (Although im only on day 3) Ive had some brilliant advice from great people here, Do it bit by bit, pause if you need to. Or dont do as many as they do and do it a bit slower.

    You'll get there - good luck!

    I completed my 2nd day of level 1 yesterday, it was a little easier, hoping today will be better! I hav a heck of a time with push-ups as I do not have much upper body strength but I still try! Hurt like hell today but for some reason, look forward to completing day 3 when I get home! Good Luck!!

    Today will be day 25 of the 30DS for me! I was like at the beginning, but I promise you, you will be sore BUT you will not believe how fast your endurance builds up!! Do the best you can! There is no failing if you are giving it your all!! Just keep at it! If at first you can't do it everyday..maybe try every other day?? Good luck!!

    The idea is to keep at it. Keep moving. I did it a few times and cursed her the entire way. I could never do it two days in a row, because my body hurt so bad. But if it doesn't hurt then its not working.
