    YOU GUYS CAN DO IT!

    I love 30 Day Shred! It was a great starting point and it whipped my butt into shape! I'm on Ripped in 30 now but I think I might go back to 30 Day Shred when I'm done with Ri30.

    Is Ri30 harder? I was planning to do it after the Shred...

    Same for me! I just finished day 2 Level 3 and was going to start Ripped after the Thanksgiving weekend. What was your opinion of ripped?

  • I started 30DS yesterday just finished day 2, I have 97lbs to lose, and after losing 12lbs have not lost anything
    For the last 5 weeks even though I've been exercising 5 days a week and drastically changed my diet. I'm hoping this will shock my body into losing again. Not gonna lie day 1 I thought I was
    Gonna be sick
    And today I nearly cried. Determined to stick at this for the whole thing, however the the thought of it makes me want to go fetal and cry haha. Anyone wanted to share the misery together and motivate each other? Add me x

    It is definitely a step up from 30 Day. I'm on day three of week three right now and I want to die...and I still have week 4 to go! You do Ri30 for 6 days, then a break, and on to the next level, which means you don't get used to the workouts. I think this makes it a little more difficult as well. But it's worth it!
  • Wow this thread blew up. Nice! I just finished day 10! It went well so I'm definitely feeling ready for level 2. Gonna take a rest day tomorrow (I do 5 days on, 1 day rest, repeat) and then hit it up!

    I was like this after level one but blamed the fact I did no excercise at all the following day. Had to take the stairs slowly at work. Really felt old that day lol.

    Hello from plie jumps! :D
  • Just finished day 3 of level 1 and my legs are good to go. They only really are sore if I walk up the steps a lot but my arms, chest, and shoulders are killer. I forgot how much upper body strength I don't really have.

    When I was able to do my first real push up (not on my knees) on day 10 of level 1 I felt like I had won a gold medal! The upper body strength will eventually come!

    I did day 6 of the beginner 30DS. Although I skipped over 1st 10 days and went right to the 2nd workout.

    I can't wait to get to that point. I'm still doing girly pushups.

    Me too!! I can do about 5 regular push ups, but then I have to do the modified ones.

    Me too! I can do the first round of push ups fine but the second set I have to do 3/4 of it modified.

    Today was day seven of level one. I've been aiming to do four or five days then one day rest. Rinse and repeat.

    I'm on day four of level two. The first few days into it, I could barely squat down to sit on the toilet! Going down any stairs was soooo painful. All legs! Level two, I find myself giving JM the finger even more than level one! Planks suck. I give it my all and I'm determined to get through all three levels. I've got to two before, but never to three. Stay with it guys - we can do this!

    I started it last week but came down sick this week so haven't done it yet. I've lost 30lbs without it but I've heard people really time up from her workout so I want to finish it.

    I have done it 1.5 times. I lost 20lbs before, but sadly I put 15 back on. I just did day two tonight (and coaxed the hubby to join). Hoping to be done well before Christmas.

    I just did day 1 of Level 1 today and I think I'm going to do the same one tomorrow before I move on to day 2. Lol!

    What do you guys do when it comes to inputting it into your exercise log?
    I created an exercise myself. How much you burn depends on your weight:
    "30 day shred calorie burn - 3.267 calories burnt per pound every hour. Multiply by weight to get how many calories per hour you would burn and divide by 3 to get each 20 minute work out"
    So for me ( about 150 lbs) it's about 167 cal in 20 min.

    I use a heart rate monitor. Tonight it said 265 calories in 27 minutes. I weigh 167

    I will be starting RI30 after I finish 30DS too... As of now, I'm scheduled to start RI30 on Nov. 30th. I'm excited.

    Did you all do your 30DS yet today? :smiley: I get up at 4:00AM every day to do my workout. I have 2 small kids (ages 3 and 1.5), so that's the only time I have to myself. It's hard, but worth it.

    I did, so today was day 4 for me. I had to do mine when the bigger kids went to school. My 2 year old did half of it with me be he wanted to hexercise lol.
  • Yesterday was day 10. Today is a rest day... tomorrow level 2! I'm excited for a new video but not excited for new soreness.. :smiley:

    Yesterday was day five of level two. I mix in with cardio on some days so this is taking a while. I may look into Ripped in 30 or just start this one over again after I do all 30 workouts. I really like it. Although while I'm doing it, I question my sanity. How is the fun? Then when it's over in just a mere 20 minutes and I'm covered in sweat, I am very proud that I made it to level two.
  • So today was day 11! Level two wasn't so bad. I definitely worked harder than I did in level 1. Some of the cardio moves I had a hard time keeping up, not because I was tired just because I couldn't get the rhythm or move right (Oblique twist!?! I can't rub my belly and pat my head at the same time either). I think I looked like toddler dancing for the first time :neutral_face:

    I completed day 7 this morning. I think it was slightly easier than it has been, so that's good. I'm going to finish out the 10 days, then rest on Tuesday, and start level 2 on Wednesday. Keep it up, guys! :)
