30 Day Shred - starting Monday April 19

Completed Day 2 of section 1. I really hope really soon that my abs and quads will stop hurting with every move I make. Its getting embarassing at work grunting every time I sit down because it hurts so bad. lol

I was expecting to be sore after these workouts, I just wasn't expecting to be sore for this long. Please tell me the pain gets better.

I'm starting day 7 today - It does get better!! The first two days for me were rough too, I took a day off between 2 and 3 to recouperate, but have done it every day since!

i started on the 18th. i'm still on level 1, the weights are really kicking my *kitten*. i have zero upper body strength. i bought 2lbs weights thinking,"how hard can it be?" but each time i shred the whole time i keep thinking,"i should have got the 1 pounders." it's too late to switch now though.

I just finished my first week of the shred - today was so much easier than the first few - I even went ahead and did the first circuit on level two along with it - Level two looks tough! I didn't do the whole thing but I kept watching to see what I was in for and man - thats going to kill! I'm sticking with Level one for probably 3-5 more times - I'll probably keep adding the first circuit of level two in when time allows for an added bonus!

Taking the day off from shredding tomorrow because I am doing the 5k March for Babies and then we have a wedding with some serious dancing involved so I think that is going to be enough activity for a Saturday! Back to it on Sunday and hopefully be ready to tackle level 2 by Wed.

How is everyone else doing ?

I finished my first week last night. I am thinking I may want to do another week of Level One. While I am better at it now than at my first day, I still have not mastered a couple of the moves. (IE the lunge and bicep curls)
I must say that at the end of just one week I can already see the results. My arms are leaner and my abs are more defiend. I still have quite a ways to go, but I am so happy I got this dvd. It really does work.

Is Anyone out there still shredding? I am and am loving it - I have moved on to level 2, actually I didn't think Level one was doing enough by itself so now that I have mastered level one I am doing it first and then doing level 2. So 40 minutes total. I have a lot of work to do to perfect level two - lots of ab work, planks etc.. that I'm just not good at....yet!

I am not quite to level 2 yet. I think end of this week or begining of next I will try it...but I agree I LOVE it. I love how I feel like I have had a crazy hard workout in only 20 min.

Still doing it, still on Level 1. Had a few setbacks some days so I think I'm on Day 7 as of Tuesday. I'm going to give it a full 10 days before moving on.

Yay someone else is still here! I actually started before the 19th and I took a couple of days off here and there in the beginning. Now I'm shredding every day and I feel so good! I get crabby if I can't fit it in!

Agreed! I get highly annoyed if anything conflicts with my schedule. LOL

P.S. Just finished L1D8. Woo hoo! Getting way better at those pushups and the anterior raises.

Well you have all inspired me. I am going to try level 2 tonight. We will see how it goes. Thanks for the motivation.

Good Luck - I'm going to do level one and level two when the kids go down for a nap in about an hour! Level 2 is intense - but stick with it, I couldn't finish level 2 my first try and now I'm doing both together all the way through!

so im on day 29 of 30 day shred i skipped 4days total the whole month but did other excersises those days!!! i feel great im going on to level 2 for month 2:) wish me luck jillian kicks my butt!!! lol im down a total of 17lbs in 2 months but im stuck no weight loss in 3 weeks. im losing inches though?? any thoughts?
carrie

You're doing great, I have only lost a total of 3lbs while doing the DVD, but I have lost about 6-8 inches over all. 17lbs is Awesome!!! Level 2 is hard, but you have been doing level one for a whole month - you are probably stronger than I was when I first started level 2, I moved to level 3 today, SUPER HARD - not sure if I'm quite ready but I'm gonna try!
