Wow...I don't know where all that power and energy came from today but I was a power house! I put Jillian to shame on those punches in the cardio and I even got through the whole end with the bicycle crunches! I feel amazing right now! I can't wait to carry on to day ten and take some progress pics and measurements! I'm pumped! You should of seen my flexing in the mirror..oh yeah...bring sexy back ;)

    You will! It comes out of no where and you're like, "yes...I can keep this up. wait did this just get easy?"

    Thank you! I almost didn't do it tonight since I didn't want to be sore at six flags tomorrow but I thought I'd go ahead and get it done and I am so glad I did!

    Excellent stuff! Oh yes, day 7 complete for me too! Tomorrow I am going to take a day off for the first time as I think I need a rest! It has got easier and I am no longer sore at any point. Have been able to complete all of it since day 1 so I'm tempted to try level 2 on Monday!

    Great job! Relish your accomplishment because as you know Jillian she'll set you back a bit on the first day of the next level. I'm doing ripped in30 now and started level 2 two days ago and had to take an unanticipated day rest.

    That's great about the pushups! Those are still really hard on me, I think its because I've got some weak wrists and my left one was in a cast of some sort most of my childhood. But I'm not giving up and I just take those 5sec breaks where ever I need them.

    I have no doubt that Jillian is going to knock me down a few pegs on lvl two, but I will persevere!

    When I started the 30 day shred I was using cans of beans and I could barely got through it. Even with taking my rescue inhaler before hand I couldn't get through the cardio without feeling my chest tighten. And crunches were hard and those arm raises at the end were murder. So I've come a long way and am pretty proud.

    Day Seven is not a good day for me. I weighed myself this morning and I'm heavier than when I started, I've not really lost any inches except for one around my chest. Completely the wrong place. That was a bad way to start the morning!

    I still can't get through the first section but I can now make it all the way through the lateral raises. It hurts but I can do it. I've had to dial back the lunges. My knees are getting crunchy. It's like I can hear paper crinkling when I move. I don't think that's a good thing.

    I weigh more then when I started as well, muscle builds up first and that's when our scales go up but then it starts to eat the fat and our scales go down a bit. Don't be discouraged, we are all going through the same thing!

    As far as the arm raises, I use one weight and hold onto it with both hands. Still burns but it's bearable. Keep it up ;)
