Okay...excuse my language...but holy crap those PLANKS are HARD!!! I just did D1L2
I do not even WANT to dare trying level 2 again...lol...woweee!
Yep..no core or upper body strength on this shredder...please tell me they get easier & that it happens quickly!

    LOL! Yes they are a killer and the sweat that pours out of me when I do it is no joke! But it does gets easier and it works! Last year I progressed to level 3 and I was in awesome shape. It got to be to easy for me so I switched to her no more trouble zones video. However, due to personal setbacks I stopped exercising gained back all the weight and am struggling with level 1 again. Starting over and getting stronger....I feel your pain but stick with it.

    You will get stronger every time you do it. I started Level 3 with a bang and though oh I can do this one...then I tried it again and about killed myself!!! I just have noticed with each Level you just keep getting stronger and stronger. Keep it up girl!!!

    I just did D5L2 and it does get easier... but I'm scared to move to level 3! Maybe a few more days...

    When I started L1 i had absolutely 0 upper arm strength but I'm finding now I can flex my arm and see definition... very exciting!

    I hated the plank positions and still do - at the beginning I could barely do them (I'm about 8 days into level 2, I think - I've had a couple off!) I follow Anita and now I can get through all the plank moves (except the last ab circuit, I still need one 5 second break)
