    Feel free to add me! I started 30ds yesterday. I did it last year and had great results. It's a great way to Kick off exercising.

    Just finished day 2. Yesterday i wasn't as intense as today. I went all out today because I knew what to expect and yesterday I was uncertain. I am feeling it right now...

    I want to try it but I'm scared. Is it a different workout everyday? for 30 days? How do you do it? I don't want to buy another dvd just to sit on my tv console :sad: so if you have done it please enlighten me. Also I am very much overweight and out of shape so is it something I could do????
    Thanks:ohwell:

    Well it's only a 20 minute work out but it is circuit training which is the best way to lose inches. This is my first go do we shall see.
    I did p90x last year with brilliant results. That is a loooong DVD. Averages around 70 mins and I just don't have that kind of time right now. I'm only on level 1 and the cardio is not challenging enough but the strength and abs are killing me.
    I think the fact it is so short motivates me to actually do it

    Good luck

    Me too. I try to look at it like "I can do anything for 20 minutes". That does not mean it's not hard, but it's such a short amount of time. I'd rather work my butt off for 20 minutes than do something mediocre for longer. It really appealed to me because I was seeing some amazing results posted here and people were getting those results from some thing that was only taking 20 minutes a day!

    i'm on day 7 - level 1 :)

    How is it going on being a little further along at day 7? I did day 3 today and it was ever bit as hard or harder than the 1st two days. I am hoping at some point I am going to handle it a little better! Like break through the initial torture from being out of shape and fairly inactive. I think I may have been able to push a little harder today than the last couple days, hard to say though. Well actually I did get through the final ab bicycle thing without stopping this time, even if what I was doing was pretty modified, I kept my legs up and my head up. LOL

    Ok I did day three and I have a question.

    If this workout lasts 20 mins and I log it on mfp as circuit trainjng or calisthenics it records the calories burnt as 169

    That is totally not enough to "shred" pounds per week so should I combine this with something else ie the elliptical or running or am I burning more calories secretly - that would be great wouldn't it!!

    I'm determined to have a six pack for summer. I love the ab exercises the most !

    I am buying a heart rate monitor so I can better know how many calories I am burning and can eat back!

    I did day 6 today. It was pretty disappointing. I wasn't sore and I know I have more endurance, but when I started the jumping jacks I had a terrible pain in my back, right about where the back of my bra is and I couldn't even do them. I was really afraid of hurting myself and it was painful! Then when I did the first lunge with bi-cep curl my back thigh hurt like hell! Like I almost pulled some thing. I felt like I was falling a part today in ways totally different from the initial soreness and exhaustion. I hope tomorrow is better. I think I need a more supportive sports bra and that will help my back. And I am thinking maybe my thigh hurt because I didn't get as good of a warm up from the jumping jacks because of my back.

    Count me in. I started it a while back and lost steam, though I didn't find it too bad to keep up with. Maybe this time by joining alongside you guys, I will keep myself more motivated.

    Nope, not on netflix. At least not for the streaming... :grumble: However, it IS on youtube.. Just put in jillian michael's 30 day shred.. It'll pop up. All three levels are on there. That's how I do it :blushing:
