    I just have to add that I just finished L1D1 and it's definitely not easy. I really had to push myself! I don't think I lasted a full 60 seconds with my 5 lb weights before I switched to 19oz soup cans lol!! No time to take a drink of water, so make sure your hydrated before the workout. On the bright side, it goes by really fast.. and the feeling of having finished it after doing your best feels great. I'll be checking in again tomorrow :)

    I started 30 day shred about 2 weeks ago. But I didn't take any measurements. Maybe I will take measurements and start fresh. Will check back in!

    That's great you started early! And yes I remember how great it felt after completing it! I'm excited to start Monday & look forward to hearing how you are feeling about it a couple days into level 1

    Ok Ladies .... My measurementss as of today

    Chest - 36
    Both arms - 11
    Both thighs - 22
    Waist - 31
    Hips - 36

    I weighed in this morning at 153.5
    I'm 5'8

    I have been doing the shred for about 4 days now but I will go the extra days at the end with you ladies!

    Good luck everyone!

    Like someone else said, level one is challenging but it does go by quickly. I plan on doing 10 days on each level and also doing some extra cardio 3 - 4 days a week.

    I'm not as sore from the first day as I thought I was going to be. That probably has everything to do with the fact that I switched out my 5lb weights with 19oz soup cans like I mentioned yesterday. I mostly feel sore in my inner thighs (from the knees up) and upper arms (biceps and triceps), but not sore to the point where I can't move like I was expecting. When I did today's workout, that's when I felt my soreness the most. I realized that I was sore in more places than I originally noticed... Pretty much everywhere lol. I have a hard time with the very last exercise (bicycle crunches), and toward the middle of the workout I lose a lot of stamina when she does the "butt-kicks", jumping jacks, and jump rope consecutively. Remember, it only gets better!

    Until tomorrow, fellow shredders. :flowerforyou:

    Hello group - I will post my measurements when I get home from work this afternoon. I do my exercises at night when my twins are asleep so that's when I'll start my shred. I'm excited to see everyone's progress (and mine)!!

    The cardio is getting easier and I can already see my endurance increasing. Not really sore today at all either. That'll probably change once I get my hands on some actual 3lb weights, but for now the 5lb is way too much.. and soup cans will have to do. Happy Monday :wink:

    I'm in for doing 30 Day Shred for the next 30 days! I'll probably only do it every other day, because I'll be alternating it with Couch to 5K training. I'm down!

    CW: 162.2

    Measurements soon to follow.

    I will be doing the shred once I get off today.

    Let me ask you all, are you doing any other workout along with the shred? Also, are you all "dieting" or roughly eating the same in moderation?

    Thanks

    I'm doing C25K and walking in addition to shred. I'm pretty much eating the same in moderation, but trying to cut down on carbs and junk food.

    I'm only doing the Shred. IF** I happen to have the energy one day, I may add in 20 minutes of Turbo Jam, but I'm usually so busy that 30DS is all I'll have time for. I'm not on a "diet" per se, but I am staying in my calories, which on here are set at 1200..plus I eat back most of the calories burned by exercise.
