I am new to myfitnesspal, and pretty much new to working out in general. I decided to try out the 30 day shred. I am getting married in July so wanna start getting fit now!!! IF anyone else has started today, or close by, feel free to add me!! I have no friends on here, but I love seeing everyone's posts about their journey though 30DS!!

Anyone as sore as I am?!?!

    I have done the 30DS. Piece of advice Day 3 is the WORST! If you can push through it you will be great. I have had great success with it in the past and it is a great workout when you are limited on time. I still do it when I am limited on my workout time.

    Feel free to add me if you want.

    Day 1 was brutal!!!! I literally thought I was gonna die in the middle of it but I just kept pushing. Only had to take one 5 second break! Although breaks aren't allowed. lol I was in so much pain during and after, but a few hours later, i feel fine! Wonder what tomorrow is going to be like!

    I think it's only 20 minutes. It's 3 minutes of Strength, 2 Minutes of Cardio, 1 minute of Abs. And she does 3 different circuits.
    Also does a 2 minute warm up and cool down.

    Only thing is, I feel like it may get boring doing to same workout for ten days before you can switch to level 2 and level 3.

    This is my second time doing it. I did the full 30 days last year but I only got up to level 2 because I was really out of shape lol. I only lost about 5lbs while doing it but I definitely felt a little leaner and my clothes fit better! Then I totally fell off the wagon haha. I'm doing it again and I'm on day 6 of level one. One thing I will say, good form is key. Some of the stuff that seemed easy to me before is kicking my *kitten* now because I'm really paying attention this time. The soreness will get better! When I did it last year I could barely walk up and down my stairs haha. Just push through it!! Good luck!!!

    I just bought it today! I'm finishing up my RevAbs DVD tomorrow. It was a 90 day program so I'm going to start 30DS on Friday as well!

    I did the full month of 30DS a couple of years ago and loved it!!! I was really out of shape when I started and by the end was way toned up. I did three weeks at level one and then ten day at levels two and three. It would be so great for me to start it up again!
    Good luck, keep it up even when your sore you will be so happy you did!

    I have completed the 30 Day Shred and am now on Level 4 of Ripped in 30, which I started straight after.

    The hardest day of the 30 Day Shred for me was Day 2. I hadn't done a proper workout in a long time and when I woke up after Day 1 I could barely walk. I almost considered taking a day off, but I pushed through Day 2 and Day 3 even though I was hobbling around afterwards. After that it was smooth sailing and I never skipped a day and did it for 30 days straight. I had really great results. Good luck! :)

    RevAbs has cardio days along with strength training and weights but everything is suppose to be targeted towards your core. Yes, it definitely worked some for me. I lost almost two inches on my waist and am on the last hole on all my belts now! I'm gonna do a second round with heavier weights when I finish 30DS

    Keep going, it's AMAZING!!!! I'm up to Level 2, but we haven't been doing it everyday, as my partner plays sports, so those days I just go on the treadmill, but we love it.

    I honestly thought I was going to die the first time, but I've figured out that interval training really works for me, as my brain does the whole "only 30 seconds left" and I give it my all.

    Good luck everyone!

    On day 2 of level 2! Forgot how crazy it was! I am sweating buckets by the end!! How's everyone else doing?

    Are you adding any additional exercise? I like to hop on the treadmill and jog/incline walk for 10-20 mins after finishing the shred :)
