Just saw this post. I started the 30 day shred, and I just finished day 8 today ! Already lost some inches ! I love the workout but I am scared to start level 2 haha.0
-
I think I want to start again May 1st I'm leaving for new york in 30 Days this would be perfect. I have tried this in the past, and it does work! It is hard at first but I was seeing results. I only had a week left.. but you know, christmas happened and I got off track0

Day 5 Level 1 completed! I'm halfway through Level 1. Yay!
scale isn't moving though :-(0 -

I'm sure it will start moving soon!
Tonight I will be finishing Level 1! I watched Level 2 last night to see what it involved. Lets just say I will be falling Annita a LOT on Level 2 some of those moves look next to impossible! My only other issue is that they seem to go to the ground a lot. I don't have a TV and use my computer. I am thinking I might need to put my computer (it's a laptop) on the floor or maybe a chair so I can see the screen! (I currently can't see the screen when I get down, but I don't need to see as I know all the moves for Level 1 all to well by now!)0 -
Hello ladies,
Day 3 of level 2 completed this evening and I am starting to feel like I am improving on this level.
The squat thrusts still kill me as do the plank jump things... love the 'v' squats and some of the others (I can't remember names) but cannot get the double skipping at all so just doing normal skipping - fast if I can...
Will hopefully get one in tomorrow but heading out of town so not sure if I'll have time, then I have to find somewhere suitable at my father in laws to continue for the next 4 days!

Let us know how level 3 goes!
I'll let you know! I watched it last night and some of the exercises are interesting. Glad I will have no one watching me do them! I am worried about one thing. There seems to be a lot of jumping in Level 3. I live in a second floor apartment. Um? Please don't get mad at me neighbors! (I will have to make sure I get it done early enough in the evening that hopefully they won't complain!)0 -

I start level 3 tomorrow (14th) and could have written your post - I too had a quick flick through level 3 to become familiar with the different moves and am worried about noise but as long as you're not doing it late then they can't fuss about it! Onwards and upwards!

Level 3 report:
Abb moves aren't that bad and I can actually do a sit up. (provided I use my arms to help me up!)
Cardio and strength? YIKES!!!!! The second circuit has you do familiar cardio moves (punches, but kicks, and jumping jacks) BUT you do it with weights! By the time I got to jumping jacks (you stop your arms at your shoulders) my hands were sweating so much, I though I was going to send the weights flying! I know the same will happen with this level with that was with level 2. Once I learn the moves better I know I will be able to get all the way through without resting.0 -
Is it too late to join in? I started today, was tough!! Expected it she's a mean lady lol Did a 4km walk after so not too stiff yet...i say yet...0
-
I re-started 30 Day Shred today because I got a HRM for Mother's Day! I have been counting Level 1 as 200 calories burned but today I only burned 115 calories using the HRM. I am just happy I have a more accurate measure of my calories burned! We will see how it goes! Good Luck!0
-
In too late and still sick (been like this on and off a week and a half!) so no level 3 for me yet... hopefully tomorrow...0
-
Like level 3 MUCH better than level 2! Enjoy all the moves apart from 1. taking the weights to the floor in a squat - I feel off balance and like it is compromising me doing the squat properly and 2. jumping from the squats but that wasn't that bad.
There is a lot of jumping at the end - I think because you go so high the landing is harder so I do feel a bit from the neighbors but it's tough cookies lmao
Sit ups felt GREAT to do and my abs can deffo feel it now lol

Those on Level 3 (if anyone else has gotten there yet! I"m not taking any breaks between the days, and I guess some of you are?) - Is anyone else struggling with supermans??? I am NOT that flexible enough to bend myself that way. I feel like I am barely getting my knees off the ground and forget getting the chest off the ground, I just can't bend myself backwards like that! (I also feel really silly doing them!)
For those that are not to Level 3 yet, if you don't have a mat you do your work out on, I would recommend it for this level! I don't have one as I do it in my carpeted living room and though I would be fine. Well on Level 3, especially when doing supermans, it's the first time I wish I had one! Some of the moves I am doing faceplants into my carpet (supermans) and some moves (the walking planks) I feel like my elbows are getting carpet burn almost every night.0 -
I'm fine with the supermans but I'm an ex-gymnast and these were pretty ordinary stuff back then lol
However, i totally get you on the carpet burn situation on the elbows - the side planks at the end did if for me on day 2. I don't know what to suggest - I may use a soft pillow under my elbows next tomorrow....0 -
Im thinking of using a blanket in place of mat. I have to check out prices of them next week when I get paid and see if I can afford one.0
-
Tonight I dd my workout using my blanket. (seeing how I had it out already as I was wrapped in it being cold) It made a HUGE difference on my elbows! Definitely going to keep doing that until I can get a mat!0
-
Glad it helped - I keep forgetting until I'm into the workout and then just tough it out lol
How are finding level 3?
The last strength moves kill me - the moving push ups and arm/leg plank (and I do it without weights!). Was pleased to see how much I was sweating from the workout though.
I'm planning on having a few weeks off after completing, buying some weights and starting the whole thing again with fairly decent size weights...

Only three more days to go and I am done! I am starting to notice a difference. And I don't care if she does say you should be starting to see a 6 pack form, I'm not! I'm just working on getting it flat! (and it's working!) I've realized the last two nights how much easier the push ups are and that I'm actually doing them! Grant it, I am still on my knees, but I"m doing them! I might see if in the next couple of days I can do a full on military style push up!0
-
I started the 30 day shred on april 15, 2013 and today was my last day. I lost 9.3 pounds total. I went from 218.2 to 208.9 I added turbo jam into my routine as well. I hope everyone has great results.0
-
I started today 5/19/13. And 135 squats.0
-
CMWinner I can do one set of full push ups followed by one set of the planks things but then the next set I buckle lol. Considering I couldn't do ANY pushups in level 1 I think I'm getting there! I love the feeling of push ups - like I'm super strong/fit lmfao.... just doesn't last long enough0
-
Ended up not getting my workout in tonight. I started doing it and was feeling lightheaded and had to stop. The same thing happened one day last week but I figured that to be because I hadn't eaten supper. Well I did eat supper tonight and was still feeling light headed doing it. Not good.0
-
I've been wondering about this tape. I guess it's good because of all the hype....what equipment do you need for this? TIA0
-
I started last Monday and only did 1 day! I can't do the darn jumping jacks! Does anyone else struggle?
I cannot do them either. Kills my knees!0 -

Hand weights and a mat if you are working out on a hard surface. I don't have a mat so I use blanket folded up. I know some people don't have hand weights, so they use other things like cans. I started with 2.5 lbs weights, but moved up to 5 lb weights now (for most things anyway!)0
