Just finished D25 today... you ladies (and gents) got this!
I am hoping that I lose a couple of inches off my waist in the next week.. first time around I lost over 7" around my waist, I gained 2-3" back and have only lost 1" haha. Makes me wanna push harder.0 -
Hi all! As I mentioned in my post yesterday... I picked up my polar ft4 hrm last night. Spent all day "calibrating" it to check its accuracy, and it's pretty good. Just did day three of level one, and according to the hrm I burned 235 calories. That is including the warm up and cool down. I am 5'2, 197 lbs, and completely out of shape.... Just to give you an idea of my stature vs calorie burn so you can try and figure out yours if you don't have a hrm. Hope someone finds this helpful!0

finished level 1 day 6 today! it was much easier as far as i could tell. then only modifications i *purposefully* did was i had to take a break on the first set of jump ropes because they were KILLING my knees, and i skipped a few arm raises on the side lunges. cant wait to see how easy day 10 is. you all are making me nervous about level 2 though lol
I already know that I will be doing level one for longer than 10 days. I want to be comfortable doing all the moves at the "advanced stage" before I move on rather than hating myself jumping to level two and feeling like giving up. I may be ready by day 10, but if not there is no shame in staying behind a few more days...0 -
Yay you! And congrats on your engagement. I finished my day 2 a few hours ago. - My muscles definitely got that shakey jello feeling the first day. Today, it didn't seem as interminably long as it did yesterday for some reason. I'm glad I did day 2 today even though my muscles were sore because moving through it has made them not feel quite as sore.0

I'm on Day 5 Level 3..It's awesome..I swear level 3 is easier than level 2..I couldn't stand level 2! But my abs are becoming visible,I feel so much better..and not to mention stronger.I got this far with 3 lb weights..I'm thinking about going round 2 with it ..with 5lb weights.What do you guys recommend? Re-do it? Does she have another great DVD?
Lots of people move on to Ripped in 30. She has a lot of DVDs out there, Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism is good. She also has 6 week 6 pack people talk about.0 -
I've done level one every other day for a few days now (trying to work my way up to doing it every day) but I'm concerned because my knees get very sore after each time. Any suggestions?
If your knees are sore I would take a rest day between or modify so you have less impact. Walk in place, etc. I also throw some ice cubes in bags and put on my knees if they get feeling warm. Feels wonderful!!!!!!!!!0 -
I am going to start this tonight i can't wait!!0

Just finished day 20, on to level 3 tomorrow. I wish i would have taken measurements, but i can totally tell the inches i have lost!!!0

Way to go!!! Exciting..you can see the end.0 -
Just finished 1.2 of 30DS. I wasn't super sore this morning, just in my pecs. I know tomorrow I will feel it more. Gotta keep pushing though. It takes extreme work to get extreme results0

My wife and I have done it a few times. We usually do the first week for two weeks because the first 2 days have a rest day in between due to our legs and abs hurt so bad. after the first days your muscles will be more used to it and then we do it atleast 5 days a week with 3 or 4 days in a row with no off days!0

I'm on Day 7, level 2, but my shins are killing me. The moves are getting easier, just have trouble with the plank/push ups. I only did a little yoga today because my shins hurt so bad. I've never had shin splints, not sure if that is it or not.0

Level 1 day 5 completed today.
Squats and lunges are getting deeper for me. YAY! (I have really bad flexibility, so it is awesome to see it is getting better). Still doing easy "female" push ups, but able to push more out.
I sometimes do feel like I get a little bored, but have been pushing myself a lot more the last two days and it shows - THERE IS SWEAT DRIPPING FROM EVERY PART OF MY BODY!!
Going to play my own music from now on. Although I do like to hear her say to push on sometimes.
Anyone feel free to add me for support
Starting measurements were:
Weight: 92.4 kg
Height: 172cm
Chest: 101cm
Waist: 92cm
Abdomen: 97cm
Buttocks: 107.5cm
Distal Thigh: 57cm
Calf : 40cm
Bicep: 34cm0 -
Level 2 Day 5 today. I used lower weights today on some of the exercises because my shoulder was bothering me all day yesterday.
I find if I do it directly after waking up I get it in on a working day. I just don't feel like doing anything other than bed after a 12 hour shift! LOL
How is everyone else doing?0 -

I'm the same way.......getting up at 5am and doing this before work was a huge accomplishment for me in itself.
I did Day 1 Level 2 this morning. I like it better than level 1 already!0 -

Does anyone take a day off? Im only on my first week but I was wondering if only doing it six days a week would set me back0

It won't set you back.0 -
I just started level 3 today. I have to say I was a little disappointed with this level. In that I found that the cardio in it was no where near as intense as level 2. However it is still a great exercise regime, and I am pleased with my results so far.
I have lost over 3 pounds, which works out at one pound a week. I did hope to lose a little more than this week by week. Maybe I should have tied in another one of jillians work outs to see more pounds drop off???0 -
I totally agree with you on that one!!! Even on my last day of level 2 I still found it pretty hard0
