    I log it as circuit training, general. I only log about 20 minutes (so as not to include the warm up and cool down) but some people log the whole thing. It's just a matter of preference, I guess. I personally don't log over 20 because I'd rather underestimate than to overestimate!
    Congrats on starting it... it's killer! :)

    I've seen people log it as circuit. I added my own and use my HRM to give me my calorie burn.

    Today is day 7 on level 1 for me. Last night I finally did it all the way through, excluding all the damn push ups! Still need to work on those. I guess I will go on to level 2 after 10 days after all!

    Might have to give up the shred for a little while. My left knee is just KILLING me. It's gotten progressively worse with every workout. Oddly, it's not the jumping exercises that exacerbate it, it's the squating and lunging. Might take a couple of weeks off from the Shred, do something less intensive (Leslie Sansone and P90X arms and shoulders) and then pick up where I left off maybe end of April, beginning of May.

    Don't want to be a quitter, but also don't want to get hurt! :ohwell:

    Funny you mention this because my left knee has also been bothering me too! I fell on it about 2 years ago and it's never been right, but it never gave me any problems unless I was trying to sit in a different position (i.e. "indian style"). Now it just aches a lot and I think it is from the lunging. I plan on going to to level 2 and see if I can get through it. Good luck!

    Hey there! I just found this post. I started the 30DS a little while ago with a few MFP’ers. Today I am on Level 2 Day 2. It’s nice to have extra motivation/encouragement with this workout from people going through it with you. I was also struggling with the push-ups in Level 1.As I knew would happen with Jillian, Level 2 is now kicking my butt lol. Good luck to every one doing this :D

    p.s. I log it as Circuit training, general

    Hey There,

    I started the 30 Day Shred today and really like it. I was wondering how people were adding this to their daily calories? I put it as Circuit with 30 minutes which gave me 249 calories. I have a heartrate monitor that is on my wrist only and it indicated that I burned about 400 calories, so I down played that.

    I burn about 200 cals give or take. I WISH I could burn 400 in 20mins! Maybe in Level 2? ooh I'm scared! :ohwell:

    Tonight I did Level 2 - Day 5. It is getting easier. I still have to modify on the abs in the second circuit. My abs are still not strong enough to raise my lefts straight of the ground.

    I use a New Balance wrist HRM. I logged 27 minutes at 355.

    It sounds like some of you are doing great! Way to go.

    Started Level 2 today (almost all modified). Tough for me but kept going.

    Level 1 results for me: -2 pounds, - 2 inches waist, -1 inch bust. no change in rest of measurements. Feel much stronger. :)

    Level 2 Day 3 done :). Of all the possibilities, my hands hurt most in level 2 and i hope that stops. I actually like Level 2 more than 1 for some reason. Its kicking my butt but in a good way :).

    L1 Day 8 today. Think I need another week before moving on. I find I can do 95% without stopping but still need a break on a few things.......lost 3 pounds so far! Feeling good!!

    Butters1 - thanks! I workout 5 days a week - M-F and 4 of those days I do the 30 day shred.....
