    Are you guys doing before and after pics too? I would love to see how everyone is getting on. I'm hoping for a six pack by the end. The first day I did it, I did indeed believe I was going to die ! Lol

    I don't have any "naked" pictures but I will share some fully clothed ones that "friends" took of me when I wasn't loooking :)
    I should have taken some pictures of me in the workout gear... maybe when I start the Ripped in 30 or 6 Pack Abs Group...
    There is a next step after this... This is just the beginning :wink:

    also, what weighs is everyone using?

    sorry jubuc, meat weights. I added my info on the spreadshee :) ...i started with a 3 lbs, but maybe that's too little?

    I'm so sorry! I reread that this morning and went... HOW did I MISS THAT one??? LOL. And, I have horrible upper body strength apparently, bc I'm only doing 2.5lb weights, and by the end, my arms are jello.. All though, yesterday (day5) I made it through all of it without dropping the weights! Circuit 3 usually killed me, and I'd have to just do lunges without the raises... NSV for me!

    haha np. thanks you guys! i'm using a 3 lbs as well. i stopped doing it for 4 days, so i'm back on. i really need to be more consistent!

    I worked out 6 days a week.
    5 days 30 day shred
    1 day jillians kick boxing

    Sometimes I worked out on the seventh day with big loser cardio. My results are in my profile pics
  • I do real push ups, and I am a wimp!! Just try what you can, and as you get stronger you will do well.
    Good job to all doing this program, I am on my third time through...and I really love to yell at Jillian as I do the work out, but when i look in the mirror, I praise her! My arms look like I am 25 ish, and I am much closer to 50!!
  • Ok, so I do get bored doing the same thing BUT I was thinking that if I do get like that, maybe I can just rotate through the different levels each day? What do you guys think?

    I am not sure I would recomend doing the three different levels simultaneous, it is not made to do that way. I would do several days of each level for they get progressively more difficult as you move to next level. that is my opinion, and I have done this shred three times.

    I agree with the above
