    day 4 done. pushed thru the whole thing with my 3.5kg/7.7lb weights today. was quite tough near the end! those side lunge and raise thingies are way hard with heavy weights. my form was probably all over the place though so will probably go back to my 2kg/4.4lb weights again for those bits tomorrow as i guess its probably better to do them right with lighter weights than wrong with heavy weights.

    was glad to get thru it all though. even after 4 days of RI30 i can feel the difference in my arms already. :happy: kinda wishing i had these weights for 30DS but not to worry.

    2 more days for me then we'll see what joys jilian brings us for level 2! lol

    Day 5 done this morning. lt'll be nice to sleep in a little tomorrow. It's been hard to get up early again. Tomorrow I will do day 6 and then take Sunday off.
    I'm looking forward to starting level 2. I get bored easily. Not so much of the exercises but of the talking. The last couple days I've had it on mute.

    I've been enjoying this more than I thought ... each day the exercises are getting easier and I'm noticing that my stamina is totally improving. I actually got through all the running mans and the reverse crunches ... I'm trying to do this 5-6 days a week. I did take off yesterday b/c I had a friend visit with her kids.

    day 5 done for me! had a bad day at work so decided to step it up a gear to get my frustration out! lol.

    instead of just holding the plank pose for 30 secs i done those side twist leg raises things which i think we're at the end of level 2 of 30DS. then i used weights for the squat and punch cardio bits and also for the butt kicks, again similar to what she does in 30DS.

    1 more day of level 1!

    Here we go!!! Started this morning (again). I decided to start with 5 lb weights and hopefully get to 8lb weights by the end of each level- we'll see what happens though ;)
    I have to admit L1 doesn't kill me- maybe because I did 30DS first and am running 3 miles a day now- I don't know, but I remember the start of 30DS being MUCH harder!!!! I guess that's a good thing!

    Please make sure and copy the latest post :smooched:

    I ended up skipping yesterday due to an impromptu shopping spree at a new outlet mall that opened here in oklahoma city...so I had to fight myself to stop reading my Sookie books (again...have to re-read all of them every time a new season of True Blood starts) and get up and do the RI30 on what is supposed to be my day off...but I did it!

    I would love to take a couple of weeks off...but I know I won't start back up and will start gaining weight again! Must keep pushing so it becomes a natural part of my day instead of a chore. I wish I could get myself to wake up in the morning to do them instead of doing it a 8 or 9 at night... :yawn:

    Did last day of level 1 on friday so started L2D1 saturday!!! I think the first set of cardio is more like an arm exercise... Your stuck in the plank position for twovminutes doing planks jumps and mountain climbers. Arms and shoulders were screaming!!!

    Oh and at one point she wants you to bring your knees to your elbows while doing ..... I wont ruin the surprise awaiting you!!!

    Had a long day yesterday so im lying in bed but need to get to a bridal shower. So im skipping today and will resume level 2 monday!!!

    HI everybody! Just found this thread, and I am really excited to continue with you all... it was so great doing 30DS with you! I was planning to start on the 24th, but I need to have Mondays be my off day, so I will start the 23rd :) In the mean time, I am rotating through levels of the 30ds again, hoping it will result in me being more fit to start Ripped!

    SO, I will add myself to the list with my start date, but if that is not OK, take me off until I start :) I will read along from now til then so I know what's coming and can get inspired by all you wonderful people!

    Jen

    Mom-Great to have you with us...For those that know they aren't starting until later, I am not removing from the list. I am just removing from the list those that don't end up starting and those that don't update their name (in both instances, won't remove until around 10 days after their last update or their supposed start date).

    For those of you that need motivation, just go and see the pics of others that have done the 30 day exercises and see how much difference there is in just one month! Our group was the JM 30 Day Shred and if you look at the end of the part 2 and part 3, you can see how much you can change. Of course, RI30 is supposed to be harder, so the end results should be even more! My changes would've been better if I didn't go over my calories so many times and/or kept up w/ doing my elliptical (which is what I am trying to do this time...at least 6 hours of exercise a week of total exercise and only going over my calories no more than one time per week...if any)

    Remember also, you didn't get to where you are overnight, so you can't get to where you want to be overnight! But the more focused, realistic, and dedicated you are, the faster and better you will get there and the more likely you are to be able to maintain that state! If you expect an overnight change, then you are just as easy able to have an overnight change that puts you back or over where you started (see yo-yo dieters and other crash dieters...it doesn't work)

    First day of level 2 and wow...all those 'favorite' plank items all in one little package! grrrr....and those crows...(OMG!) Overall, not too bad...once again am glad that I did the 30DS first and built up some endurance to those plank moves, but the push up moves are killers for me, since I still can't do a full blown push up
