Although I already completed this level, I thought I'd start a topic so that folks can post their comments on the level they're at...

    I'm on day 3 today - trying to find excuses not to do it (everything hurts!!) but I WILL DO THIS.

    Wish me luck!

    I've been doing this tape for about 2 weeks. I don't have the energy some days to do it or put my all into it. It really gets to me but I do feel a little stronger she just does not give you a break.

    I was inconsistent last month and am restarting. While I might not do it daily, I do plan on exercising daily at least and logging it here.

    6/3: L1D1
    6/4: 45 minutes Zumba

    Finished L1D2! It was hard to convince myself to do it for a second day after waking up so sore from day 1, but it wasn't as bad as I thought! I can do this!

    After avoiding it all day for every excuse imaginable, I just forced myself to get up and do day 3.

    AND IT WAS FINE!

    Honestly so much better than I thought, my endurance is definitely getting better =] and despite everything aching today, the work out didn't hurt at all! So pleased with myself!

    Does anyone else have a total love/hate relationship with Jillian?!

    Good luck! You've got this girl!
    You can't quit!
    I keep trying to make excuses too, but I remind myself that I didnt start to give up. It hurts now. But it will get better!

    No breaks because
    "You don't get to do a 20 min workout and take a break. It doesn't Work that way." -Jillian

    Feeling stronger is GOOD :) Keep at it! You didn't start this just to give up ;) I know you can!

    Great work! Keep it up!
    It gets easier every day!
    I def have the love/hate thing going on right now. I'm sure the hate part will go away once we can see our bodies changing! (:
    Always take pictures to track progress!!

    I really wanted to crawl into bed and ignore that nagging voice to do my day 2. Knowing you all were here. Knowing you to were doing it too pulled me through. Thanks guys. Level 1 Day 2 done.

    I direct my punches at her in the kickboxing part. It helps. But when she praises me (just me!) for having done a good job I am proud as hell.

    Side lunges and anterior raises = hell for me...

    Yes! Side lunges are the worst.

    Does anyone change weights for biceps and chest vs. anterior raises and presses? I feel I could get more burn out of the first two with a heavier. I am using 3 lbs now. I think I could do 5lbs for those. I know however that I could not do anterior raises with 5 lbs, yet :-)

    @abideedum: So true, so true. Those lunches and raises are what scare/inspire me the most.

    Same here! They are painful! The first time around I do the unmodified version, but the second time, I definitely have to follow Anita.

    I had to stop a few times yesterday because of my fussy baby, but I finished my second day.

    6/5: L1 D2 done!
