30 Day Shred Group- September

Hello everyone! Checking in, I'm a late night shredder, just finished it. Technically, it's actually Day 3 Level 1 for me, but I also plan on doing the whole month of September. Got my measurements and before pics in as well. I'm following Anita for the time being, she's seems more reasonable than what Jillian seems to be talking about :noway: at least for now ....I'm sure it'll get better.

Another question, are we breaking up each level into 10 day increments...or is it pretty much freestyle?

I will! I am on day 5 though, its amazing the endurance you get from doing a few days! took some before photos... can wait to see them again after 1o days!

Had decided as September was 30days it would be ideal to do the Shred so would love to join this thread.

Day one and two completed - why haven't I lost 14lbs yet?????

Person who asked re how many days at each - thought I would go - if doing well/easily up a level or after 10days - whichever shortest x

ps took weight and measurements - no photies for this lady!!!!!!!

Did did Level 1 Day 1 last night...and I actually was able to keep up. :blushing:

The jumping jacks didnt kill me and although I was using 5 pounds weights I only had to rest a few times.....this is so much better than my last try. Only issue is that I find the cardio is done so slowly I find myself going faster than the girls in the butt kicks especially.

To answer some of the questions asked: I am going to do 10 days on each level OR level up when I feel ready. Also I use a 5lb dumbbell in each hand and 8lb in each for a couple of the exercises. ( For those new to 30DS or weight lifting I recommend starting 5lb or lighter, I made it half through 30DS in July and then stopped due to family death, but also I did P90X before that, so I feel like my muscles are ready for the heavier weights....maybe.... )

Day 2 done with the help of my Maine Coon cat. I did everything, but she shortened a couple of the exercises when she bit me on the ankle. Little turd! Happy Friday everyone!

I just finished Day 2, level 1 and I am hoping this pays off, the thing I struggle with the most is doing push ups!! so I hope with each work out it gets better!!!

I had every intention of starting this but then my husband decided that we were going camping in the cool pines for the weekend instead of enduring another 112 degree day. We will be back late Sunday so I will start (I know a little behind) on Monday but I need your help and support. Have a safe a fantastic holiday weekend!

Level 1 Day 3 done. Already feeling some change in my arms for sure. I hate those ones where you do the side lunge thing and raise the weights up to your eyes. That's the only part that I really struggle with. Not that the rest of it isn't tough. I'm hoping to stay on track this weekend but it will be tough as my husband and I are hosting our annual slip n' slide party (for grownups). Either way, hope everyone has a great weekend.

i will got it through post today now need to purchase dumbells

I suggest getting more than one weight... I got 5lbs but they were too heavy for some of the stuff, so I also got 3lbs... Better to switch over to lighter dumbbells when you get tired, than to just not be able to keep doing it at all

i did it last night for the first time, and i did not have dumbbels so i did not use any... and i still felt like i got a more than ample workout! i'm hoping to work up to the dumbbells. i think they'd be too much for me right now!

Started round 2 (did it in August) today with Level 1. Funny how hard Level 1 is after doing Levels 2 and 3 for so long! Definitely works some different muscles!
