    I'm tempted.... my mom got the DVD for me the other day. Why does the first have to be on a Monday!? I don't wanna be sore at work all week. LOL anyone know what size weights should be used? I think the ones I have are only two pounds.

    I just watched level 1 to see what we'll be doing. It doesn't LOOK very hard, but I know it's totally going to kick my butt. Lol. I'm planning to use 3 lb weights as that's what I already have. I think most people use between 2-5 lb weights depending on their current strength/fitness level.

    I did the exact same thing! Other than the push ups, I thought it looked easy. I can't help but to feel I'm completely wrong though. LOL I guess ill give it a try!

    I'm curious...will everyone be gauging success of the 30 Day Shred by weight? Or will you be counting inches lost too?

    I just started today, but I guess I'll start over tomorrow with you all :-) Anyone know how to log the calories burned for this activity? I've not been able to figure it out, I usually just put them in as calisthenics ?

    Sophia had suggested that it falls under the circuit training category...so that is what I am using.

    Hi everyone! There are a couple of threads for 30ds start August 1st, so I'm posting to all of them. :happy: Jess, I read on another thread that some people may gain a little weight, but will notice it more in the inches and becoming more toned. I think that's why a lot of people have recommended taking measurements and photos before and after. I took photos and measurements tonight. I'm glad to have fellow mfp's to share this journey with! Good luck everyone!

    Right, what ive done is, done a weigh in this morning (13.13) measure all around my stomach just above the belly button, measured the top of my thighs, my arms, and my waist just under my stomach :)

    Ive written them down and keeping them safe, soo in 10 days time when i get up to level 2, i will take measurements and weight again, and then 20 days when i get up to level 3 i will take measurements and weight again (hopefully if i can do level 3!) then when the 30 days are over, i will be able to see how ive progressed using the 30 day shred!

    I think this way is easier as you can keep on track a bit better of the inches that your loosing and that :)

    I'll totally join! Today it's the 1st of August, here in NZ. I'll start tomorrow, the 2nd.
    I have never stuck at it long enough to move past level 1, but I find it easy on level one - I can go through without stopping. I think I'll do level 2 for 15 days and level 3 for 15 days. (I tried L2 the other day, it all but killed me!!)

    I'm in. The only part of my body that bothers me is my stomach so i will be taken pics and measuring my stomach waist and neck. I will also be doing 6 week 6 pack and cardio 5 days out the week. Wow the easy part is done (me typing those things)...now I have to do it. This is a great week for me, since I'm on vacation and my daughter start daycare .NO EXCUSES
