    I can see why they call it "The Shred", that's exactly how I feel - like I've been shredded - and then run over by a steam roller!!!

    LOL! AMEN! My thoughts exactly. Hoping day 2 goes a little bit better. Just thinking about the push-ups makes my arms quiver.

    Today was Day 2, and so far, I've been able to stick to my goal of doing Level 1 twice a day!

    TWICE a day??? OMG! I don't know how you can. I can barely move after day 1 only doing it once! You are my hero.

    I did my first day yesterday and I can feel it in my abs and legs! I also go to the gym 3-5 times a week and do the elliptical (30-60) minutes eating 1200 calories a day. Hopefully this will break my plateau.

    Made it through Day 2 last night. Had to soak in the tub for 45 mins and sleep with a heated blanket just so I could move this morning. Am I the only total wuss out here?

    Just got it yesterday and after reading your posts, I'm scared to try it HA! My problem is that I get bored after a few weeks of the same routine.

    Day 11 - Level 2 here.

    I was so sore the first 4-5 days of level 1 then it did get a lot easier by the 10th day.
    I moved to level 2 today and I am feeling it. It is very tough, but you do get amazing results! I did it for 45 days last year and really got into shape.

    Now to keep going and not fall off the workout wagon again.

    Good luck!

    I did it last week for a few days, but was not consistant, but after reading this I am going to start it again and do it straight for 10 days on level one, I do go to the gym like 5 days a week so it's not like Im no getting work outs in, but I was sore when I did that dvd and its like having your own personal trainging, plus we need strength training.

    I did it start on level one then go to another level each week. trust me it gets down pretty hard. but its fun i loved it. Just push yourself as much as you can for the 30 days and stick to it. it will be a great start to getting you inot a motivated feeling and rythym to exercise regulary

    After Day 3, I'm feeling much better. My calves are still killing me, but I don't feel like I'm going to die.

    I'm currently doing C25K. Your posts have me interested. How many times a week are you supposed to do the shred?

    As far as I can tell, everyday for 30 days. 10 at Level 1, 10 at Level 2, and the last 10 and Level 3.

    Both.

    I am on Level 1, Day 4. Omg the morning of the second day I thought I was going to die from being so sore! But now it is better. I am doing it Monday through Saturday. I really love it. I am terrible at strength training so this really kicks my butt.

    I am also doing C25k 3 monrings a week. I am super excited to see the results!

    Is anyone taking a break? I just started yest at level 1 and I finished and today I am soooo sore. Should I push through and try to do the workout again today, or should I break today and let my body rest and go back into it tom?
