    I ordered the 30 day shred at the weekend and I'm hoping it'll arrive today. What weights do you all use with it? I need to get some and not sure how heavy they should be... bearing in mind I have basically no upper body strength whatsoever :grumble:

    3 pound weight seem to be working well for me. I could probably use 5 lb ones for some of the exercises so I might try those when I'm going the second time through.
    Done level 1, day 5 :)

    Hi everyone!

    I'm starting the 30DS today! I did do it back in May/June and found it great! Back then I just did it along with other workout videos but this time I am committing myself to doing the Shred 5 days a week until the 30days are complete! I have ordered Turbo Fire so that will probably be a couple of weeks before I get it, so while I"m waiting I'm going to Shred it!!

    Hi, I've just day 4 level 1 and I feeling tighter already. Myknees are a little sore so I'm going to have a day off day after tomorrow. I hate the push up and the squatted punching cardio exercise, the burn in my thighs!!! Ouch!

    L1D6 done, I'm starting feel as though its getting easier. I've been told that you won't lose much weight for the first half as your new muscle holds on to lots of water.

    I totally agree!!! I'm on day 6 level one and I thought I was in pretty good shape until I started doing the shred!! My muscles are getting use to it finally. I'm a little sore still so I think I am going to do one more week of level 1 then next week move onto level two!! Woo hoo

    Done level 1, Day 7. So hard to get myself motivated tonight, but I did it! I'm finding it way easier to get going if I'm doing the shred in the morning for some reason. I think I will celebrate by treating myself to a tiny bit of fat free ice cream!

    What is the difference between Quick Trouble Zones and No More Trouble Zones?? Is Quick part of the No More Trouble Zones disk??

    I just got the three DVDs - 30 Day Shred, No More Trouble Zones, and Banish Fat Boost Metabolism - it would be great if I could just use these disks!

    With Quick Trouble Zones you can do 2 choices:

    1) pick 5 of the 7 workouts, yesterday I did workouts 1,2,4,6,7
    2) Do one set of each circuit...instead of picking
    3) Or, if you have Comcast-On-Demand...go to exercise TV and sometimes they will have Quick Trouble Zones all laid out for you

    I really like the 30 day slimdown which incorporates all three...last time I did it, I lost inches and felt strong and muscular...not a lot of weight loss tho; but, that doesn't really matter to me....I feel like a muscular 170 is way different than a flabby 170

    Thanks a bunch nisijam!

    I didn't realize there was such a program that incorporated all 3 dvd's until now! I am on day 17 of the 30 Day Shred but it doesn't feel like enough and I'm not seeing my body tighten up, although I do FEEL stronger. Maybe next I'll tackle the Slimdown - plus I haven't even tried those other 2 dvds yet (No More Trouble Zones and Banish Fat Boost Metabolism)!
