    The bicycle crunches are hard for me too..I am day 7 now and just can finally get thru them without a break--happy about that!
    The other tough thing for me is the side lunges with arm raises..I too am using 3 pound weights. I have started using my 5 pound weights for some of the other strength moves though.

    My shoulders are making a cracking noise with I do the rowing move..doesn't hurt but it sounds awful. I am stretching out with the video..but maybe I should be doing more-what is cracking noise all about???

    I started the stupid Shred and have done it six times. I actually gained 2 freaking pounds. WTH?

    hmmm I'm not sure what the cracking noise could be, maybe you are lacking a certain nutrient? Even if it doesn't hurt if it keeps doing it you should see a Dr to prevent injury.

    Sloop... don't be discouraged, some people gain or stay the same in the beginning. You may be building muscle or need to drink more water. My first time doing it I stayed the same for the first 8 or 9 days, by the 10th day I did measurements and had lost inches.... only lost a pound or 2 but I didn't care because the inches made such a differene I could notice in my clothes.

    Stick with it... you'll see results!

    I will keep an eye on it.

    So...I finished Day 10 of Level 1 :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
    Alot of the workout has gotten easier to do (but not too easy). Still struggling with those side lunges & raises and that final set of crunches. I plan to do Level 1 for a few more days before trying level 2.
