    I have four days left of it, and if you think Level 1 is tough just wait! Haha. Lots of moves in Level 3 are plank based or are strength+cardio. But it is helping me do at least some toe pushups in BodyPump instead of just being on my knees for them all the time. Good luck!
  • I'm on day three

    Completed day 3 this morning! I have noticed a difference in my legs already.. although the scale has gone up slightly, but that could be to do with the chocolate attack I had last night! xx

    I would love to jump on the 30 Day Shred bandwagon! I just started today and loved the D1 workout. Should we start a group?

    So there are a couple 30 Day Shred groups going on right now, but they started a few weeks ago. I think we should start our own group. What do say?

    I've completed 30 DS before, right after I had my last kid. I love it! Yes, it is hard but completely worth it. If I am feeling like stopping in the middle of the workout, I just start following the modified girl and keep going. I've added a few of you but my connection is slow for some reason. Please add me as a friend and we can do this!
  • I am starting it today :) hope it works out for me this time

    I did it back in April (not every single day, but I did make it through all 3 levels). Was thinking about starting it again. Have y'all started a group yet? If so, I'm in.

    I'll join too, I'm in the same boat, had the DVD a while and struggle to complete - I got to the stage where I' dread the shred' would love a group for support to help do the 30 days and enjoy it :)

    day 1 done

    ok, I'm in. I started it a few weeks ago. Got 2 days done, then something happened (don't even remember what anymore, maybe my poison oak episode) and had to quit. I was just thinking this morning, I think I can tackle it again. I even bought heavier weights to use as the ones I have just weren't enuf for me.

    So, count me in. Will you actually set up a "group" that we can join that we can comment on to remain accountable? That's a big "let know" .... I was debating about doing day 1 tonite or tomorrow, but I'll go ahead & do it tonite. I'll take my measurements again so I have a starting point, and I'll take a picture too to have a reference.

    Thnx so much for taking the initiative and heading this up for all of us. But ya, from the couple days I did it, it's a true butt kicker !!

    I've been waffling on whether to buy this or not. All of the low reviews on Amazon are about people developing/exacerbating joint issues with it - have any of you guys had issues?

    I've done this DVD before and have a problem with my knees, I used a really thick yoga mat and just took my time with it I didn't always finish each level in 10 days and sometime in some of the exercises I didn't get past the beginner level but in most I did. You know your own body best so take your time and even if it takes twice as long you're still strengthening your body which itself is the best protection against sore joints. Good luck with it I'm gonna start again now been really good at finding excuses for not doing any exercise lately so could really use the motivation :wink:

    I have a really bad left knee. Fell on it a few years ago. Have had cortisone shots and surgery and it's still bad. Probably will end up with replacement in the future. Anyway, when I tried the jumping jacks, it just about dropped me to my knees. So in the couple days I did the shred before, I just did some calf raises and did the arm part of the jumping jacks instead. I figured it was better than nothing.

    I've attempted to see it through before too and failed!
    I'm going to start tomorrow. Somebody make a group!!

    Ok, someone start a group....I would, but will give the OP (or someone else) time to do so. We had a group the first time I did it, and it really made a difference to me, having people to talk to and keep me accountable. As for knees and joint pain and so forth....the first time I did it, I had some knee and ankle issues in the beginning, but they got better with time.

    Hi everyone I am on day 6 of 30 day shred and would like to join this group. Finding it tough but determined to stick with it. Dumbells just been delivered have been using water bottles as weights up to now. Pushing 60 so guess I am much older than most. Feeling nauseous by end of workout might be crunches and all the getting up and down anyone else getting this?

    So I did buy it, and tried it today for the first time. Made it thirteen minutes into the video and had to quit after the first circuit.... I think it will take me a while to get through even level one.

    I feel like I got hit by a truck.... my HRM looks insane.
