    I'm on day 6 of the 30 day shred DVD and started level 2 last night. Omg it was hard. Didn't think i could finish it but i managed, just. I haven't done my measurements. Wish i had now.

    The more the merrier. And you can still do measurement if your only on day6. Welcome and good luck ;0)

    I did day 1 yesterday morning with 1 lb weights. I woke up today and every single muscle in my body is sore !!

    I'm realy motivated to do day 2 + planning to have a half an hour jogging as usual. But is it OK to do day 2 with this sore?

    The sore in your muscles is a good thing, it means that your body is changing, NO PAIN NO GAIN. and yes keep going, your body will get use to it. Don't give up!!!!

    WOW! Day 2 was rough! I really planned on getting on the treadmill after to do Week 3 Day 1 of C25K, but just couldn't bring myself to do it. I'm guessing it will get easier in a few days???

    Have you tried splitting your workout, in the am do 30DS and in the evening run or visa versa, just a thought :)

    I work part-time so I will try and do this the days that I don't work. Last night it was after 7:00 by the time I got home. Got kids in bed by 8:00 and did the video. It was just too much to start on the treadmill at 8:45! I was beat. I am very sore today. I am thinking I will hold off and get back on the treadmill tomorrow to start week 3 of the C25K. I ran on Saturday so hopefully that won't be too long of a break. What do you guys think? Who else is sore???

    I just KILLED my week 3 day 3 run. I'm so ready for week 4. I did the 5 in warm up, 90 sec jog, 90 sec walk, 3 min run, 3 min walk, 90 sec run, 90 sec walk and instead of a 3 min run i did a 7 min run then 4 min cool down. WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I liked the song during the last 3 min run and just kept going. Might've done more but my knee was getting tight.

    Now downstairs to do my JM 30DS

    DONE with day 3. I was surprised that it was easier! I really DO NOT like those butt kicks!! UG!! I was able to do week 3 day 1 of C25K too. Here's hoping I will feel good tomorrow.

    How many in this thread are doing the C25K with the 30DS?

    I need to get my kid in bed and get my feet up!! :)

    Thanks for the accountability.

    Oh, and do you guys want to do an introduction kind of thing?

    My name is Sharon and I am a 30 year old work part-time/stay at home part time mom. I have a 5 year old and a 2 year old. I live outside of Nashville, TN. I have been doing well on a diet/exercise plan for the past 5 weeks and I'm really enjoying feeling so much better. I have not had any sort of soda/caffeine in that time frame, which is HUGE for me!!! I'm heading to the beach in July and I'm really hoping to drop another 12 pounds by then. I have never done this very consistently so I'm really hoping to use this group for motivation to finish the 30DS!! Thanks for starting it.

    Ok, off to watch TV now! :)

    I ended up only doing 1/2 of day 3 of 30DS. It's OK though since I kicked butt on teh C25K. When I went to go downstairs and i squatted next to the table where I put my laptop to watch teh video my knee had a super horrible pain. SO I didn't want to risk injury. I will be back tomorrow on it. :D

    Ok Day 3 was a little tough for me, only because i ran right before doing it, so my body was already in fatigue mode. I will probably keep breaking it up, run in the morning and do 30ds at night. But i pushed through day 3 and burn 236kcal, not bad. i'm sure when i get to level 2 my calories will be off the roof.

    i beleive some asked if anyone else is doing the c25k, i also incorporated that into my workout routine. I am currently on Week 4 Day 2 and it's getting better and better. My pace right know is in between 12-13min/mile, but right now i am focusing on endurance and the speed will come later.

    Hope everyone had a fabolous shred day. DAY 3 COMPLETE!!!!!

    LETS GO!!!!

    Hi! I'm still here!

    I did day 5 today. It should have been day 6, but I just couldn't do it last night! I did C25K in the morning, but yesterday was just an "off" day...idk.

    Tomorrow is also C25K and shred. I WILL make it through both tomorrow!

    I'm already noticing a difference in my muscles, I know that sounds crazy. I only have about 10 pounds to lose so, maybe that's why, but my muscles are feeling so hard! It could also be my running. It's just hard to believe I'm noticing a difference in my body already!

    I'll do day 3 after few hours.

    I have a strange idea ( that's because I'll host some people at home after ten days = busy + no enough space )
    I want to ask if I can do two days in a day ?
    I'll keep about 2 hours between them and I'll try not to go for my daily jogging these days to have the ablity to do 30DS.

    What do you think of that ?
    Is it Ok ?

    OMG !
    4 hours without a single answer !!!

    I beleive we are on diffrent time zones that's why there weren't any answers. But as far as doing a double workout, i don't see why not, if your body can handle it then i just say do it, but then again i'm not a fitness trainer. But if my body can handle it then I would do it.

    GOODLUCK!

    If you see that much of a diffrence, then kudos. Yeah it's tough to do both shred and c25k that's why i try to have a 12hr lapse in between them and take alot of protein for muscle repair. Awesome job :) What week are you on for c25k? I'm on Week 4 Day 2

    I only did half of Day 3's workout yesterday :( BUT, in my defense, I donated blood and I think it had me feeling a little run down. I will make up for it today though! I can't wait to start seeing a difference...

    Day 3 >>> Done

    Today it's better than the last two .. I felt I can do more and breath well . Even after I finish it ,, I sweat too much but I am ok. I remember the first day ,, I was really exhausted for about 20 minutes after it.


    Planning to do day 4 today too after taking a rest and having a good snack.


    Ooh yeas ,, I can feel my thigh more stretch and my ab too .

    Nice job lynn. increasing weight, i'm scared of you. But i say if it's only 20mins you might as well go all out. I will increase mine as well and see how it feels... Thanks.
