    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.

    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.
