I started Shred on July 13. I'm on Day 7 Level 1. I took one day off and went swimming that day for 20-30 minutes. I am noticing some more endurance, but I can't seem to get those bicycle crunches. I can do about two really slow, then I throw in the towel and do regular and reverse crunches for the rest of the time. Any tips on getting through those?

Completed Level #1 Day 7 today Boy did it feel great.. I can honestly say it feels easier. I didnt sweat nearly as much as I have been. I am definetely waitin to complete Level 1 ten times before I move onto Level 2.

I also started Couch to 5 km today... week 1 workout 1 done

You could try doing the bicycle crunches without lifting your head. You'll still get the main idea of them. Sometimes I have to skip a rep every now and then.

I'm done with Day 8, Level 1 but not doing it every day. I'll be doing day 9 tonight. You guys ROCK!! Keep up the greatness!!

Try bringing your knee toward you from the floor instead of high in the 90 degree angle. You still get the lower ab work, although maybe not as intense, but you can still get the benefit.

wow, great job! i've yet to really see any significant results, but i'm definitely confident that once level two is completed i'll be seeing some results, since i know level two is full of total body moves. and planks galore lol. but anyways, keep up the great work! definitely motivating :]

Thanks! When I'm seeing results, it makes me much more motivated.

L1D8 down! Only two more days 'til level 1 is over, I can't wait!

Ugghh... So I gawfed at the people that said Shred hurt their knees. But now my left knee if swollen and bothered. I REALLY want to keep up the shred though and don't know what to do. I see results and I like it... Has anyone else had this problem and what did you do? Any suggestions?

I have noticed my knees being a bit sore... I wasnt sure if it was because I also begin to walk on the treadmill each day after the shred.

Someone mentioned earlier in this thread that in the warm up the knee circles arent good for you and that they do neck circles instead. Maybe try that?


Finished day #8 today.. sweat a bit less than yesterday..getting ready to move on to Level 2

Excited to hear someone say that Level 2 is easier.. I hope you are right lol

L1D9 done!

I haven't had time to post the past few days I took a break one day because of some pain in my calve more than just soreness so I thought that it would be best to rest it for a day than risk injuring it more, I am finished through day9. I will do day ten today. And start level 2 tomorrow I am kind of worried about level 2 because level 1 is still kicking my butt. Oh and I weighted in on 7/20 and I have lost 2lbs since starting.
I am glad to see all that is staying committed to this and the new ones jumping on board Keep up the good work.

Wohoooo!!!! Completed Level 1 :):):):):)

way to go cameron on your 2 lbs gone as well!

Level 1 Day 7- DONE!

your right level two is much harder.
