    Day 2 done... didn't get my day 2 done yesterday as I was out of it after an allergic food reaction. Whew! I found some moves harder due to parts being sore... yet others easier! Hopefully it all gets easier!!

    I think the pushups are the hardest thing for me. I can't even do them on my knees, so I do them on my waist :(



    The push ups are hard for me too, I have no upper arm strength. I just try and do my best....
    Do what you can...:smile:

    I hate the push ups to! I am on Level 1 Day 3, and I am doing a little better. I still can't do all the push ups. I hate the jumping jacks more.

    Imagine doing the pushups in the morning when you first wake up...DEADLY...I find that I can do it better in the evening...
    Today was D3 of Level 1, I wasn't in the mood doing it since my muscles were really sore from a weight training class night at the gym. But I felt great after I did it
    But I can't wait for Level 2, the last time I did level two I felt it was easier then Level 1, or maybe I forgot..we shall see in 7 days.

    I started this thread but since monday I haven't been able to do it, so tomorrow I will be starting over. I burned 386 calories the first day.
    I find that the pushups are the hardest.

    Hi everyone! I started the 30 day shred today!! I started on level one and did not feel like I had really gotten a hard mean workout(if that makes any sense) I was wondering if I should do it twice a day?? what do u guys think? I only burned 166 calories (using HRM) and I usually burn 500 calories in a good workout!

    @glcarr65: How was day 2?
    Today is day 5 of level one for me.

    Would love to post everyday here to keep myself accountable.

    That is what I am planning to do as well. Lets keep ourselves and each other motivated.

    Hi I started it today too. I know what you mean. It doesn't feel like I have had a workout today. But for me when I was doing it today I felt some of the moves hard to do and I wasn't doing all the moves correctly, i think. I think most on here do it once. But If you think you can do it twice go ahead and do it.

    I just completed Day 6 Level 1 of this.

    I feel like im ready to go up a level now but will do 10 days of Level 1 to make sure im ok.

    I burn 182 off doing level 1 for 20 mins according to my HRM. I also ran for 50 mins before I did the 30DS.

    It's not enough for me to just do the 30 DS i have to add in extra cardio so im burning more each day.

    I hope to be able to keep it going for the 30 days though.

    Well done everyone!!

    Today was Day 4 of Level 1 for me. It is also my weigh in day. I was disappointed when I got on the scale and saw that I gained .4 pounds. I think I am losing inches though, my pants seem looser. Along with the 30DS I am doing either an Insane Fitness or Bootcamp class at the gym or somet other kind of cardio 6 days a week. I am hoping to see the scale start moving soon!

    I started this week and got in 3 days in a row....couldn't walk well the 2nd day, but 3rd day was better. Since I wasn't feeling well yesterday I decided to sleep in a little today and skip the shred, but will do my normal 2miles on the treadmill. I've noticed that I'm feeling better and I've lost an inch in my thighs and almost an inch in my waist. Back to the Shred tomorrow!!:smile:

    Today was day 3 for me, and I really struggled through it. Honestly, I think it felt harder today than days 1 and 2. I'm not sure why. I did manage two knee push ups though. Small things here.:tongue:

    Day 2 level 1. I was feeling sore from yesterday. At one point I thought I could not continue. But glad that I did it. Feel good now!

    I started it on Monday. So Monday night I was sore and upset because I couldnt figure out how many calories I burned. So I went to Taget and got a HRM. So on Tuesday I did it again and this time with my HRM. I was still very sore Tuesday night. Wednesday morning, no sooner did my feet hit the floor I was already telling myself I did NOT want to do it. But I ended up doing it and not only did I do the 30 DS but I also did the 30 Day Jump Start. :) To my surpirse, last night I was no where near as sore as I was the nights before!!
    The only part I have problems with is the push ups. So instead of getting on the floor and doing the knee push ups. I do my push ups on the stairs.

    Yes, I have been wondering whether to do day 3 tomorrow. Or have a days break to give my body to recover. I was planning to do it every day. I will see how sore I feel tomorrow.

    I've done the shred every day since 3/9, except for yesterday because I was ill. So I did Level 2 and 1 today to make up yesterday's lack of.

    The first 6 days KILLED my thighs so bad! But I pushed through. I really don't like Level 2 because it is significantly harder but I haven't stopped yet haha.

    Thanks. I think I will try and do it every day too.

    Wow, both levels together. That is great. I too am dreaming of the day when I will be fit enough to do all levels in a go.

    I'm on Day 4 of Level 1. After the second day, I thought I was going to die. I almost needed help sitting down and getting up out of a chair because my legs were so sore. After working out last night, my whole body felt better, and I woke up this morning feeling great. Just finished my workout for today, and I finally feel like things are getting easier, especially pushups. I'm not really seeing any results yet, but I'm feeling better, and I'm proud of myself for sticking with it this far! We'll see what these next few days bring! Good luck everyone!

    I did day 2 this morning, not looking forward to tomorrow. My thighs are killing me! But I'm not quitting! Lol

    I did Day 3 today... It was A LOT easier than previous days!! Now that I know the routine, I can put other music on in the background which is nice!

    Second set of pushups still burn, but got through them!
