    Just purchased 30 day shred today; is there a certain time that it was supposed to start in this thread?

    I could only do about 15 minutes of 6W6P, doesn't help I was doing it in socks and on carpet. Gonna try again soon, wearing shoes of course :)

    I'm with you! I started two days ago and have not been able to do more than 15 minutes, then 18 minutes. But here's my thought, something is better than nothing.

    My inability to breathe stops me in my tracks and makes me woozy, but that will become easier as I continue the training, and continue to be more active in my everyday life. I'm hoping to work my way up to the 30 min by the end of my first week, you could also! Good luck!

    You did great! If you need to stop, it's okay. When I first started the shred, I could barely even do the modified moves and was really sore the next day. Better to know your limitations than get injured.

    You will be amazed at how much more energy and agility you have in just 7 days! And there is no shame in taking longer than 30 days to finish the program. It took me 6 weeks, but I lost 10 pounds and 12 inches. And then went on to other JM workouts that have raised my fitness to a new level. Stay with it and don't get discouraged!

    I highly recommend doing more stretching after the workout than she does. Even if you don't finish, skip to the cool down and stretch. And try to stretch at a different time of day as well. (evening before bed is my favorite) This really helped me!
