30 day shred for march anyone??

well i just did day 1 and i'm really dissapointed, i had to keep stopping - and she was like 'don't stop!' and i was like I HAVE TO STOP FOR A MINUTE.

I say for Day 1- the fact that you didn't give up and turn it off would be a success!

I started today with 3lbs weights. I'm going to mixed the weights up between 3 & 5lbs because in some parts the 3lbs were too lite. Stats are in my signature.

I did good with everything except the 2nd set of pushups. I'm doing the modified ones and I was struggling after the 3rd one in the 2nd set. All the other exercises I did without modification.

I agree, I need 5 lbs on some exercises and 3 on others (the chestfly and bicep curls are fine for 5#'s but the military press and sidelunges are hard for me even with just 3#). The push-ups are the hardest for me, I do the modified version and can still barely make it through. This workout kicked my butt in a good way! Are y'all doing other exercises as well (eg. elliptical or something), or just 30 shred? I'm relatively new to working out consistently, so part of me wants to add stuff because I'm so enthusiastic, but I don't want to overdo it.

I am in as well! I have done level 1 a few times, but never back to back days. I am determined to get through it now though... my legs will thank me later!

Before i got pregnant I was on a good kick of working out and watching what I was eating, but have completely lost track and all motivation. My daughter is almost a year old (March 11) and I still have not lost all the baby weight yet. I bought the 30 DS after a friend was telling me about it. I am in and will start today!!!!

Count me in!

YAYYYYYYYYYY! day two and I got till the end!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Major acheivement since the only thing i used to finish was a bottle of 1.5 litre coke !:drinker:

I wasnt techincally correct but I stayed the course! I feel sick but YAY!:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

Count me in!! I will be starting a day late... March 2.

I just started it Sunday and am planning to do it every day that I don't do another form of vigorous exercise (such as Zumba). That will probably put me in at 4 or 5 days a week of 30 Day Shred. Judging by how sore I am after 2 days of it, I think it will be great.

How do we log that under our exercises? I finished Lesson 2, I always find the chic who does the less impact. This is my 3rd day doing it. My left knee kills me though when I am doing it.

Just did Day 1 Level 1
I used 5 lb weights because I don't have and 3 lb-ers, so I couldn't do all the arm raisers without stopping, but other than that it went good, and I'm ready for day 2 tomorrow!
Hope it's going well for all you!

I'm in! Got the DVD today and just did the level 1 routine. I'm scared for levels 2 and 3!! Anyone feel free to friend me - I can use any support and motivation I can get!

I JUST got done doing Day 1, Level 1. I'm not going to add weights until about a week in, which I'm glad I didn't use them tonight because I was definitely feeling major burn without them! I'm excited though - it was tough, I definitely feel the burn, but it's not impossible. Looking forward to the rest of the month and seeing my progress!

So, I did day one and it went better than I expected... I have been trying level 1 off and on since January when I joined.
I have a few definite issues and this may sound nuts but here it goes - at this time I cannot do the slight jumps for the jump rope and I apparently still do not have any coordination to do the butt kicks. Ok so a little laughter insert here cause I feel like I am glued to floor for the jump rope and I will fall on my face for the butt kicks???? What the heck is up with this? I thought by now I would be able to do them....no problem doing jumping jacks...so in place of them I just jogged. Now is there anyone else out there that is experiencing this and will admit it????? While working out this morning I could not stop laughing at myself.

I did my third day in a row of Level 1, even though I am so sore I can hardly move (and I have to climb stairs at work - OUCH!). The crazy thing is that, while you're doing it, it seems challenging but it doesn't feel like you are doing so much that your whole body will be sore the next day. But then it is! My butt and the tops of my thighs are the worst - soooo sore. The act of sitting or standing is hard, but once I'm either up or down, it's fine. Also, even though I'm really sore throughout the day, my muscles don't bother me while I'm doing the Shred.
The first circuit is the hardest for me as it is constant jumping (jumping jacks, jump rope, jumping jacks, jump rope) and push-ups, which are REALLY hard for me, but I feel like, after I survive those two areas, I am good to go with the rest of the workout.

L1 D1 down.....29 days to go. I'm not sure how long I will be on L1, but I will probably move slow because I vaguely remember how hard L2 was (ugh, the plank just kills me!) the few times I've done it.
