    I read this somewhere but I can't find it now. How do you log this under your exercises?

    I'm in! I am officially off the couch now. I started last night, well sorta. I did as much as I couild I'm embarassed to say I didn't make it more than 15 minutes. I didn't have weights so I used cans of peas. I will try to complete the DVD tonight, thats my goal. And I will buy some 2LB or 3 LB weights. Yeah, thanks for starting this thread

    You're all amazing. I tried to start 30 Day Shred today, I did 9 minutes and I just couldn't carry on. I don't know if it was because of the excessive heat or maybe because my fitness level is Much lower than I thought. It made me sad :( Well done to all of you who are doing it.

    I couldn't complete the first set either, which will be amazing in the future when we look back and laugh at how far we have come.

    I know I will be four days late, but I think I'm going to start this tomorrow.

    Yay, someone else will be doing it too!

    Just completed day three, I thought my arms were stronger than they are, they are in pain. Wishing I had something lighter than 5 lb dumbbells. :(

    I made it myself.... to figure out your calories burned take your weight and multiply it by 3.267 and then divide it by three.

    I am on day four. I have a lot of belly to loose from having two babies back to back. I am hoping this does the trick. I took my before pictures, and am so looking forward to the after.

    Just finished day 5. It is getting easier. I had to force myself to stick with the push ups for the whole time.

    Might increase the weights for the chest fly

    Hi all!

    Today will be day 9 for my boyfriend and I (he joined me on day 5--awesome!) and we plan to try out level 2 for the first time. I'm a bit nervous, as I was just getting comfortable with level 1. But that's why it's time to move on :)

    I didn't start from scratch fitness-wise, but I still found the early days torturous. For people who are scared to start, it IS hard... but you can do it! I had to take lots of breaks at first, but I stuck with it and now it's so much easier. And knowing that you're already stronger/more aerobically fit after just a week is very motivating! You WILL see results fast if you give it your all and focus on performance.

    I don't have a scale here, but I look leaner and tighter, especially in the abdomen. I am PSYCHED to see what my body looks like at the end of the Shred!

    Right now I'm on vacation and have tons of time, but soon we'll be flying back to the States and running around like crazy people visiting my family, seeing friends, moving me into my new place, and preparing for a new semester for both of us. I LOVE that 30DS is SHORT but still effective. I know I can keep up with my workouts no matter how busy I am. When it's only 20-some minutes a day, there really are no excuses.

    Good vibes to all you shredders! We can do it!

    Hey!!

    Jumping in on this! I actually have finished Level 1 already, will start level 2 either today or tomorrow... is taking me quite a lot of time to do it though, because I don't do it everyday, since I alternate it with cardio, gym (strength) and of course 1 or 2 rest days per week. So it has taken me about two weeks to finish the first level, I think? Is that too bad?

    Hope you guys are all succeeding! :flowerforyou:

    Last night was my 3rd day on lvl one and I just about made it all the way through those bicycle crunches at the end! I feel more energized and pop right out of bed in the morning and wow it makes me feel so optimistic and happy about life. Why didn't I jump on this exercise/eat right train sooner?

    Day 4 of lvl one tonight and I kind of can't wait.

    Oh and yes, I'm sore all over but I love it. I love knowing that I am just that much more stronger today than I was yesterday!

    Carry on Shredders!!!

    I don't think its bad... it is a full body workout that essentially tones your body... my Doctor told me that is is good to have rest days.
