Just started the 30DS

Options
I just did the first day of 30 Day Shred. Holy Matt Damon, it kicked my butt! For all those who have done it: Does it get easier for you as you go along? I know I can do it, I'm just wondering what your experiences have been like. :smile:

    Yes it does get better! When you start Level2 and Level3 you will feel the same way you did today! LOL!

    Yes it will get easier, based on my experience and what I've been reading on the forums. Day 1 was the worst of the days and I've never had another day with that much soreness. Also you don't have to do all 30 days consecutively. I started doing every other day with gym or other exercise on the "off" days. Now that I've made my way to level 3, the old gym routine feels easier and kind of boring. Keep at it!

    Agreed. The first several days of each level are the hardest but it gets easier as you go.

    :laugh: I know, I know - I feel your pain, literally! Seems like by day 4, I wasn't sore anymore and had already started to see some nice changes in my abs. Everytime I do the workout, it's hard, but then I see some new muscle definition in my shoulders, abs, or legs, and I'm ready to pop that dvd right back in and sweat it out again! Totally worth it! I'm just finishing up level 1 this weekend, and I fear/look forward to level 2! Really hoping I get the amazing results by level 3 that I keep seeing pictures of on this site! :happy:

    It gets better! I'm about to do day 1 level 3 and I'm sure it'll kill me for a few days!

    I'm only on day 3 and it still hurts but it's getting better. I love it! I'm also going to incorporate her yoga melt.

    It will get easier:) for me days 2 and 3 were the hardest due to the fact I was so sore! But after that it got alot easier, just posh through it and you'll get to where you will think ''wow i can't believe I just finished with our stopping.'' and you'll see how much stronger you'll feel to! Great job on getting through your first day and good luck on getting through the rest of it:)

    I just picked up the DVD! Can't wait to give it a shot. I was wondering how everyone tracks this in their exercise diary?

    I track it under circuit training in my exercise diary. I use the video all the time, but I don't do "the 30 day plan" It definitely gets easier (and I still see great results using it 3 days a week). I didn't feel up to level 3 last time, so I went back to one, and I kicked it's *kitten*!! It was a huge self esteem booster to go back to something that I struggled with and totally conquer it!! Good luck everybody.. the results will definitely be worth every minute!!
