Ripped in 30 starting week of August 14 - any takers?

Just when I thought I was out... they pull me back in.
I thought I'd take a month off from DVDs, but I've not been as good as I thought I would be.
I'm in. I'll probably be doing this every other day opposite my c25k training.
Will there ever be a point when you post a challenge and I can actually say 'Thanks, but I don't think I need it this time'? *grin* Thanks for keeping me motivated.
So funny. Yay - glad you're doing it!
I previewed it today....she suggests only doing it 5-6 days per week and taking at least one day off. Who am I not to heed Jillian's advice?! I'm resuming my C25k program this week, so I will likely only to Ripped 5 days/week.0 -
Did Level 1 Day 3 today. Didn't make it yesterday, but felt good today. I find that Jillian is much less annoying that she was in 30 DS, which makes the workout even better!
I think I will try to take one rest day in the middle of each level and one day between levels. other than yesterday, I am going to go on the elliptical on the off days (I hope)0 -
I did preview all 4 levels..I wonder if i can twist and turn like that..? *laugh*
I'm thinking about starting up in a week or two, trying to rid my excess birthday weight and get back to losing the 8lbs I loss with the shred..0 -
I haven't done the preview yet. I find level one as intense as level 3 of the shred...I am kind of scared of what level 4 might look like!0

Just finished my first Week One workout. I liked it! It's hard, of course, but I liked it better than the Shred. I like that the strength is three exercises at 30 seconds rather than the two at 45-30 in the Shred. Interestingly, my last day of the Shred, my HRM said I burned 200 calories even (level 3), and my HRM said I burned 257 today. I'll take those extra 57 calories! I am still woefully inadequate at the side lunge things. I have decided to do them without weights to try to perfect the lunging technique. I do still lift my arms. I had knee surgery in January, so I think part of it might be psychological due to my concern about re-injuring myself.
I do, however, miss Natalie and Anita. I'm sure the other girls will grow on me, too, but it would have been nice to see those familiar faces.
I, too, was happy to see that Jillian recommends a day off. I suppose I'll take Saturdays off and just run on Saturday nights.
Good luck everyone! Keep pushing it and let's look forward to some awesome results! Have a fabulous week!0 -
I HATE THOSE SIDE LUNG THINGS!!!!! I can not get them right. I usually just do side steps with the arm raises. I don't mind the girls...were the three as coordinated with thier outfits in 30 DS?0

I'm in too! Started 30DS today and doing Ripped in 30 from tomorrow:)0

I'm on Day 2 of week one on Ripped. I am definetely feeling it in my core and upper body, OUCH! must be working lol
Can anyone share their results from Ripped or Shred? Any weight loss?0 -

Today, I am feeling it in my calfs. After day 1, it was my back. I am hoping it will move to my core!
I did 30 DS in May and I didn't lose a pound. I am hoping to have more (any) results this time!0 -

Definitely a higher burn...I like that also. I'm unsure that my form on some of the lunges is correct also. I try to go at a slower pace to make sure.0 -

I felt lower back during the day one workout yesterday. I feel great this morning, though. It's always interesting to feel those little tweaks!
I had success with 30DS, losing 12 pounds. Granted, I have a lot to lose, so it's going to come off me faster than a lot of other people. And I do think it's important to take measurements, because even if those pounds aren't falling off, I bet your body is changing. I tracked measurements and weight, and was pleased I did. I am doing the same for Ripped.0 -

I think that Jillian will only let one wear shorts at a time, and I think that at least one has to show their abs.
Anita and Natalie (the 30DS girls) did not coordinate the colors (but man, you're right, they totally do in Ripped!).
Has anyone else noticed how much more shredded Jillian looks in Ripped compared to the Shred? Granted, her body was cut and fabulous in both, but she seems even leaner and more sculpted in Ripped!0 -
Week one day 4 done! I really don't know how I am going to get through the other 3 levels. I am a mess when I finish this. Still too scared to preview what is coming!
What are your favourite/least favourite exercisesof level 1?
Mine would be:
Favourite ~ Punches, deep seat with shoulder lifts, and push ups (although I am struggling with them)
Least favourite ~ Side lunges with arm raises, hollow man (CANNOT do it), and football run (my butt juggles too much!)0 -

Having only done one day of it so far, I can say that side lunges are my least favorite. And I also am terrible at side planks. I love the triceps extensions (are those with a static lunge - see, only one day in - I haven't committed it to memory!).0 -
OK...here goes.

Weight: 149.4 lbs
