    My dvd is being delivered today. I will start tonight. Does anyone have suggestions on what size weights to buy? I have 10lbs at home but I think that will be too much to start off with. I was thinking maybe 5lbs, anyone that has started this, do you think that's a good weight to begin with?

    They suggest 3-5 lbs on the DVD, I think. So it will be ok :)

    I'm not living in my country at the moment, so I am using filled up cola bottles... :/

    I woke up with aching legs today and last night I went clubbing, and walking up the stairs was quite painful on my muscles!

    But I'm going to push through day 2 later on today! :)

    Tried the Shred for 2 weeks with 7 days at level I & II, then went on vacation [a month ago now]! I'm thinking Insanity is even crazier!!! I'm trying to build up to that one as I get bored easily!

    Maybe it's a good day to try the Shred again! I'm in :bigsmile:

    Feel free to add for extra support, motivation and commiserating! lol

    Started day one yesterday, did day 2 this morning. So proud that I got up and did this, I hate exercising in the morning so this was a big step for me! Feeling good.

    Hi guys how are you all getting on? I have to say level 2 is a bit of a killer but gives you one hell of a workout. I started off trying out the way but now I try to add in more and more of the harder exercises. The plank jacks really take it out of me so I hope I see some good results.

    Good luck everyone
