    I am doing max 30 as well. Am in my last week of month 1. Day 1 I maxed out at 3:02min now with progress I have been able to max out at 14:45 with tabata strength. It's a great workout. Good luck to the newbies. Feel free to add me

    How do I add friends??? Or request to be added? This is stumping me!

    Also, I maxed out at 8:13 this morning and then modified for probably the last 5 minutes. This workout was the hardest for me to keep up with so far. I am not coordinated when it comes to the bent ski hop hop move. I could not keep pace.

    I tried to add you can't seem to do it either. Is this the sweat interval one? Day 3? I found it hard. A lot of hand eye coordination required!

    Nice! How have you found month one?! Have you weighed yourself throughout?

    Yes. Day three. Sweat interval. I did have to watch the moves today more than the last 2 days. The burpee split lunges were hard too. I was behind on those.

    I am only on day 3 of month one. If I'm being honest, I don't want to take the before picture because I am so mad at myself for allowing myself to regress this badly. I did think about it and you are right. I may regret it at the end but right now I think it would just frustrate me more. I am going to weigh once a week and measure but I don't want to have to "see" it anymore than I have to.

    I have written out my goals and have posted a ton of motivational pictures and thoughts in my garage where I work out. I am anticipating it to be a challenging process but am dedicated this time and having this group will help.

    Oh yeah, I completely understand. Well just keep it up and you'll get to your goal! ☺️ Glad you are using measurments too, people get too hung up on the scale, and freak out when it goes up.

    The row push ups are tough! @sbcmuse I found it hard to take my before pictures. It was a harsh reality check for me. Anyway, 2 more days and week one is complete! We can do it! I usually do the workout in the morning but today I couldn't. So I've just had to do it in the evening. The old me would have skipped it but I'm really glad I did the workout! I think this group helped motivate me! So thank you guys!!! Woohoo

    Geekytea and jullzgood. This program is killing me but I'll take the compliment.... even if I feel like I am killing nothing but my garage floor.... and some of those women are like frogs! They jump so well and so high. Sigh. If I did not do it first thing I would never get it done after. There's too much going on in the evening. My husband leaves for work at 530 so I have to be done by then And these early mornings are rough. I've heard Friday's work out is a beast.

    Yeah it is, Friday is the day you try to push as far as you can, hence the name Friday fight. You'll enjoy it. And trust me, you will get a lot better the more you keep it up. Make sure you land softly to protect your knees and joints and by the end you'll be jumping longer and higher. Don't compare yourself to those people in the program, they were already fit before starting the program. Just try to do better than the last day and you'll make amazing progress.

    Y'all. Friday was not my best day. I maxed at 5 minutes and barely made it to that far. I think I am going to try to do again tomorrow and get my head right. I was tired this morning and did not give it my all. Since tomorrow is pulse and it's on the same DVD I may redo today's work out. By the time I got to 20 minutes my husband came in and needed help finding dress shoes so I paused the DVD and when I came back my stamina and motivation were gone. I finished it but in a very slack fashion. I'm going to redo it tomorrow. Ugh. Keep me motivated people!!!

    I found days workout quite tough. But on the other hand, I enjoyed the pace though it was intense as usual. I'm excited to be close to completing 1 week! I'm looking forward to pulse, I might do some yoga afterwards and on Sunday a yoga and core workout. Nothing too heavy. Also, I will was wondering if you all are doing any special diet alongside? Are you following the nutrition plan?

    I am following the nutrition plan to an extent, but I plan to tighten up more this week. I'm a life long vegetarian but I do eat egg whites even though I don't like them. A lot of my protein sources have carbs in higher amounts so the high protein diet can be a challenge for me. I also like sweets which Is a challenge to get past. Fruits and veggies are not a problem for me as I enjoy them. I need to find a shake I like that does not cost as much as shakeology. Any suggestions? Night.

    I'm not following their nutrition plan, no. I follow flexible eating, Aka if it fits your macros. Best thing I've ever done, and you aren't constricted to the foods you can eat. It's an eating style I definitely recommend. Been doing it for 3 months and don't plan on ever stopping lol, love it. Look it up :smile:
