L2D4 done, Day 14 in total. I can't do the jumping torso twist things b/c it's putting strain on my legs, so I'm replacing those with jumping jacks, otherwise I'm doing really well with it.
BrunetteWife - is Level 2 getting easier??? We were on the same day at one point, but I got lazy and had a few days off. . .
Yes and no. Those jumping torso twists are killer on my shins. The planks are pretty easy for me. Those darn squats with the v raise at the end are killer, otherwise, I find myself wanting to follow Nathalie more than Anita. I don't plan on moving to level 3 til day 21 though, no matter how easy level 2 gets.
Hope you hop back on soon0 -
Ok sorry I've been MIA, What a busy weekend, lol, skipped Sunday but got my Saturday session of the shred in and about to go for it again when I finish this post. So I will be completing Day 7 here shortly. Keep up the good work ladies!! :drinker:0

I have trouble with all the jumping jacks lunges and level 2 just isn't doing it for me. I'm getting better on level 1 though. I use my heart rate monitor while I work out and I'm burning 330 calories just on level one alone. I haven't been doing it everyday cause I workout 2-3 in the gym a day but I do want to get it done more often.0

Okay Day 9 In the Books! I am looking forward to starting Level 2 on Wednesday (that's my weigh in day BTW). Blog has been updated but in case you aren't going over there to check it out here's my results for today. I think the issue with the HRM is that the strap wasn't properly wet yesterday evening when I did this.
D9 9/27 - same weight
Heart Rate Max: 143
Heart Rate Avg:119
Calories Burned:171
3lb dumb bells used on the squat / shoulder press ONLY otherwise upped to 5lb on the rest of weighted strength training.0 -

Good morning all!
Did day 9 last night before bed. My knee is killing me this morning.
And I have a 6 hour meeting to go to for work, after working 4 hours, and it's an hour away.
So, leave the house at 5 and get home at 5...doesn't leave much time for Jillian today.
If my knee still hurts by the time I get home I'm taking today off.0 -
Morning shredders!!
I've been out of the loop but I'M BACK!!
I've been a little erractic with doing shred as I've been hitting the gym but I started up again and this morning was level 1 day 6. Definitely noticing an improvement in my endurance but the side lunge with shoulder raise thingy kills me everytime! I thought my shoulders were getting stronger but that move really gets me everytime! Does anyone else feel this as well?
Well done to you all - sounds like you're really well keeping up with shred! Keep up the good work!
Will check back soon hopefully with a report that my shoulders are improving!0 -
okay ... weigh in yielded no results ... no change in weight or measurements. on to day 10 and Level 20

I don't have much of a scale change, I'm sitting at 204. I usually weigh in on Fridays, so we'll see if there's a change then.
I plan on hitting day 16 later.
Keep it up everyone!!0 -
I did L2D3 last night. . .it's getting a little easier, but not much. Hoping that changes soon! I am seeing a lot of toning especially in my stomach. I'm loving this!!0

????QUESTION????
So I've been reading on the message boards that MFP could be overestimating calories burned. I don't have a HRM (yes I know I need to get one), so is it safe to assume that ~200 calories burned is correct for the Shred? I am 128 lbs and 5' 5 1/2". I think MFP shows my 27 minutes of Level 2 at like 205 calories burned. Please let me know what everyone's thoughts are on this.
Thanks!!!0 -
Day 9- in the books!! Feeling great can't wait to take measurments. When does everyone else want to measure? Should we wait until the end of the 30 days? Or after 15? I know inches are going I rew out of (in the last month) 3 skirts, 2 pairs of pants 1 pair of shorts and 2 days ago I was wearing a summer dress and I had to change because the back kept falling down, lol. Looked into getting the clothing that's loose just taken in but it's around 20$ and up, for each peice of clothingthose prices :noway: . So I obviously don't want to hang on to these clothes so I'm going to give them to someone who needs them. Thank god I still have some of my size 1-3 shorts and jeans from before I got pregnant with my last baby (I even own one of my size 0's in hopes that I'll be back in them soon:laugh: ) otherwise I don't know what I'd do. Thank god the holidays and my b-day are right around the corner, by then I should defenitly be to my last goal weight and can buy more.
Hope you all have a good Hump Day. . . . Happy shredding ladies:drinker:0 -

Yeah that's pretty accurate. The HRM's results can vary for different people depending on ALOT, height, weight, effort, I mean even depending on how much I work out before the shred, I'll burn less if I work out before! Around 180-200 is pretty darn accurate that's what I've always seen from other people and mine hangs around 200 depending on different factors!0
