    Just started Level 3 and it is ridiculous. In truth I struggled Day 1 of this level trying to figure out how to do the workouts properly so it didn't feel as hard to me as it should have been. I hope that within next couple of days, once my form is better I will get more out of it and I will feel the FULL burn!

    I started RI30 on Monday, I'm up to day 4. I just finished 30DS on the weekend, so I'm finding Week 1 of this reasonably easy, although I have been very impressed with myself that I can do the advanced moves in lots of things woohoo :noway: :laugh:

    I'm not looking forward to week 2 though, I really really reallllly do not like anything involving planks :grumble:

    I am really glad I did 30DS first.

    I'm on level 2, which is kicking my abs *kitten*. I found level 1 to be pretty easy, but that's probably because prior to starting, I finished off the 30DS.

    Level 3 of 30DS makes level 1 of RI30 look like a walk in the park. It does get more difficult though.

    I am on level 2 I thought the first level was easy compared to level 3 of the shred. Level two is not easy. The planks are killing my shoulders

    I agree with you on the painful planks.

    I think Week 2 is easy strength training wise. it's the planks that kill me. lol

    :sad: :sad: :sad: nooooooooo! I hate planks.

    I've injured my calf muscle doing those running man exercises, they're horrible - another running man hater right here. BUT having a stuffed leg means I can't do them (oh what a terrible shame haha). Running on the spot is much less painful!

    I'm not feeling the intense burn after week 2 sessions that I had when I started week 1 - I don't mind planks, I do a lot of belly dancing so have fairly strong stomach muscles. Plank jacks are ok but mountain climbers and that squat low thing with the other leg lifting high thing?! yeeesh!

    My weak areas are my thighs and my upper arms - with the push ups and ll the squat positioning the exercises are burning those areas - feels like it's all working so it's all good! I think I need heavier weights - the 1.5kg I'm using feels like nothing.

    I am on day 5 of week 2 and starting to dread week 3! You'll have to tell us what Jillian attacks in week 3...Week 1 it was my legs, week 2 it's been my shoulders and stomach...i am so afraid of week 3 and 4, which she refers to as the craziest (or some other equally fritening bit...). I should just watch the work out, but i don't want to scare myself more than I already am!!

    I started Ripped in 30 but had to quit for some personal reasons. I do plan to do it again though. I was enjoying it.

    Has anyone else started the Ripped in 30 program by Jillian Michaels this month?

    FINALLY! Thank you, I see all of the posts for 30 day shred, but I've completed it and moved to Ripped. I'm still on Level 1, but it's a great workout. I started on the 3rd of this month and have lost about 3lbs. since which is a huge loss for me in that amount of time!

    Level 2, Day 6 and while I am not Sore...my arms are soo tired today! It hurt carrying my bag on the train to work. I think that is a sign for me to make tomorrow a rest day...although I really wanted to do one more day before a rest, but I think I better listen to my body.

    Tonight will be level 1 day 4 for me. I did the first level back in the fall and quit after doing level 2 day one:( I'm determined not to make that mistake again this time. I really like this better than the 30ds because there are more moves per each circuit. It seems to go by faster to me, and that defiantly helps! By the way, I despise running man!

    yeah. I did it like 2 years ago or whenever it first came out and really enjoyed it. Since I gained a little weight, I have pulled it back off the shelf. I'm doing the weeks for ten days with 2 rest days so a total of 12 days to finish the week instead of 1 week so that I have the opportunity to move on to heavier weights (8s and 12s etc). I just did the first day of week two and feel great. I'm also doing it with a squat challenge. Its a great dvd, very concise. Interval training always works the best for me in terms of fast results.

    Today will be day 6 of level 2 for me. I'm a little afraid of what level 3 is going to bring. A lot afraid.
