Day 3, level 1 complete. Man O' mighty, am I sore today. I almost talked myself out of it but I prevailed! Can't wait till the weather gets a bit nicer here so I can go on regular bike rides also. It's such a fun and relaxing way to get in a bit more exercise.0

Silly question- I am eating 1200 calories a day but have not been eating my excercise calories, is anyone else not eating the extra calories from workouts????? Thanks
I eat my exercise caloriesYour body needs fuel to run, just make sure it's healthy food you're giving it!

Does anyone else have knee issues?
I had knee surgery 3 times, and for some reason, jumping jacks just really kill my knees. I won't sacrafice my knees in the name of Jillian (mainly because I won't go through that surgery again!), but is there anything else I can do that's a bit less impact? I can't jog for the same reason and the butt kicks and jumping jacks also hurt.
Day 2 Level 1- DONE!
The only thing I can think of is the squat with punchesShe says that is great for anyone with lower body injusries because it gets your heart rate up!
Good idea! I tend to tune her out by the time I get to that part, so that's probably why I didn't realize that's what she said..haha.
I also have a tough time doing 'female' push-ups because I can't kneel very well on that knee. Hopefully I'll soon be able to do a real push-up and not have to push through the pain of kneeling.
Have you thought of doing Wall Push Ups? I mean, they are definately a lot less impact but they are beneficial.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RtM3L00BUU
As soon as I read your post in the back of my head something clicked. I have the 100situps program on my iphone and this is one of the "alternatives" they give for beginners. You might have to Pause Jillian and do a double round of these to get the full benefit she is looking for, but it is definately better then being on your knees)
I never thought about that! That would definitely help me build up enough stamina to be able to do 'real' pushups! Thanks for the idea!0 -
Hi Ladies, I just found your posts and would like to join your group. I started the 30 day Shred already....when I originally saw the post and have done it for the last 3 days. Level One seems easy...after reading all of your posts, I think I might do Level 2. I will take measurements and post them.
For sure you can! You are exactly where the rest of us are:) Good luck....let's SHRED!0 -
Did day 2
Was easier than yesterday, by a long shot! I butt kicked my way to the oven to stir my tea :P
Managed to fit it all in before it was ready though so it's all good!0 -

I actually started shredding on Sunday, is that ok? Only ahead by 1 day.
Anyways, my starting measurements (and these are probably more than needs to be measured, but i'm doing it for my general knowledge lol) are as follows:
hips: 52.5
waist (natural): 50
waist (smallest): 37
thighs: 31.5
arms: 17.5
neck: 15
I've got a little exercise journal I made to keep track of my exercises, measurements & such (as well as MFP) and I scheduled my next day to measure for March 7, so we'll see how it goes
Stay strong everyone! You are going to get the results "that you want and that you deserve!!"
*EDIT*
Oh and yeh, I always track it under circuit training, general.0 -
Oooops, I somehow joined the wrong one...they are about done over there, so I am hoping to jump into this one. A couple days behind, but I did finish L1D1 and I must say....it's going to be an awesome 30 days!! I picked up my DVD today at Walmart along with her Shred Kit (yoga mat, weights and water bottle~on clearance : ) My legs still feel a little jello-like. Looking forward to doing it again tomorrow! I need to go take some measurements before I get too far into this. Good luck everyone!0
