    day 5 done for me too. all the people who said to push through the first few days of pain were right coz i feel pretty good again. good job! done some extra cardio straight after as i'm out on the party juice tonite. so gonna go over my calories for the day but have been good all week so hoping it doesnt affect me too much. only problem is i'm probably gonna have to do day 6 with a hangover! yikes! guessing that wont be fun! lol

    Someone told me to log it in your diary as circuit training for 20 min. Depending on your weight it will let you know!

    ok totally don't feel like doing 30DS today, especially since it's saturday, but i'm just going to go ahead and push through with it... day 6 level 2 here i come... BTW- i totally hate level 2 LOL.. the plank exercises are the worse! i guess this is what you get when you skip level 1 :S

    I haven't had a chance to do day 6 yet but I am going to...even if I have to do it late tonight! Is everyone doing it on Sunday's too or are you taking a rest tomorrow? I can't decide. I normally dont exercise on Sundays... what do you all think?

    Just did day 5 today, I took a rest day yesterday because I wasn't home at all so I didn't get a chance to do the shred. But I did get a lot of walking in :)

    i usually don't exercise on sunday as well.. it's my day of resting.. i can't decide if i want to do the shred since it's only 20mins... maybe i'll just skip it :))

    Day six for me today and will do it later this evening definitively getting easier although the push ups are still the bane of my life. I have managed to do 5 full push ups so far and the rest the modified version. I took a day off in Friday as i was so sore. I am combining the 30 day shred with my cycling and running( alternating each day) and i am definitively noticing the endurance level is on the up:)

    i had problems with the push ups too but each day i try and do a few more than the previous day. can manage 15 'proper' push ups in the first session now and think i managed 8 in the 2nd session yesterday. then the rest as modified. hoping by the end of level one i'll be able to do 15 and 15. definitely the hardest part of level 1 for me though. quite glad its at the start and out of the way quickly! lol
