30DS, move up to L2 or not? (Also, hello!)

New here! Hi everyone 
I started doing 30DS 9 days ago and I'm debating whether to move up to level 2 or not. When I started I could barely get through any of the moves but now it's just the squat-presses and the pushups I have trouble with. I can almost get through the squat-presses, but I'm nowhere near there on the pushups. I can do 3 weak regular ones, and a bunch on my knees, but I still have to stop and rest a lot, especially in the second set. Oh and my calves still burn like a ***** during the jumprope so I stop during that too.
What do you guys think? Move up or stick it out a bit? I also throw in her Banish Fat Boost Metabolism 2 days a week, although I've only done it once so far (man that thing is brutal!).

level 2 is a huge step up. i moved up on day to when i could finally complete 35/35 weekling pushups (the girly ones) if you find those positions hard i wouldn't recommend moving up yet as she puts in a hell of a lot of plank moves. ive just done day 8 of level 2 day 18 total and i still cannot go even through 1st circuit without stopping to sip my drink and take a breath.0

I moved to L2 early because I did not feel challenged enough. If you feel you're not working hard enough you could try to kick it up a notch. If it's too difficult than go back. I watched a video of L2 before deciding to move up. Yes LOTS of planks though...they're killer.0

I couldn't and still can't complete all of the moves without a 5 second break (during cardio) and I'm on day 9 of level 2. I was glad to make the change because I was losing interest in doing the same thing. And I found out that even though I thought I could only do the granny push-ups I was able to do the walk-out push ups in level 2. Maybe try 1 day of it and see if you would rather go back to level 2?0
