    Hi

    Maybe you guys can help me
    I picked up the 30 day shred about 2 weeks ago and have been alternating between level 1 and 2 (or occasionally doing both levels daily)
    I want to pick up another Jillian Michael or Biggest Loser DVD but I heard they can be very similar
    Any thoughts on which DVD or 2 I should pick up next...I don't want anything too similar to the 30 day shred

    Also, any thoughts on where to buy the DVD's at a good price
    The only place I've seen them is my local Target and they are $14.99....

    Thanks, kim

    I'm in!

    I do BL Weightloss Yoga, every other morning (I change it out with Pilates, not BL), and then in the evenings trade off between BL Cardio Max and BL Power Sculpt. I'm loving it. Usually when I'm done with the Power Sculpt I'll do about 1/2 hour on the treadmill for some additional cardio. Power Sculpt and cardio is my plan tonight!

    Great challenge! :flowerforyou:

    I don't have the Shred but I do want to pick it up next!! I do have the BL Cardio Max & the BL Sculpt. Both are great videos that have members of the Biggest Loser working out with you. I picked mine up at Walmart I'm pretty sure that I didn't pay over $10 for them. (each) I also have Jillian's cardio kickboxing. It's pretty tough, I think that I got it from Ebay, again under $10.

    Glad i have some company.. I got all mine at Amazon.com under 9 bucks each... One set i paid for 2 day shipping the other i did the free shipping and it took 15 days to get here!! next time i will just fork out the extra 10 for 2 day

    I did Cardio Max last night (second night in a row) and my butt is so sore!! I love Cardio much better than Shred.. Something about watching them skinny muscular girls makes me hate it..

    I just bought the shred dvd at Fred Meyer for $9.99. You might not have them where you are. Have you tried Walmart?:smile:

    It doesnt matter to me, i just want to have someplace where i feel that i have to "check in" so it gives me more motivation to get off the couch and plug the dvd in!!

    I will tell you about myself... Forever i was skinny skinny, then i hit about 25 and discovered wine and my future husband, slowly started gaining weight.. Never was "overweight" all the excess seems to go to my thighs and belly, got married more weight, got pregnant (70+pounds!!).

    So all my weight is now in my belly and things, after the baby (almost 6 months ago) i lost about 50 pounds doing nothing (yeah i know dont hate) lost another 10 watching sodium intake and cutting out wine.

    Now i probably have about 20-30 pounds to lose, tons of inches to lose off my belly and things, I dont really have a goal weight more a goal size.

    I want to get in shape, got a cruise planned in about 204 days (but who's counting??:bigsmile: ).

    So what does everyone want to do? Just come here and post what exercise we did daily? Do we want to take measurements/weights etc once a week/month?

    Good morning BL Challengers!

    Last night I did the BL Power Sculpt. I decided to add level 3 (for the first time). OMG!!! Bob kicks butt! Most of his exercises don't even include weights just holding lunges, squats, planks, etc. I had sweat pouring off me. My HRM said I burnt 430 calories so I was happy! I got on the treadmill for about 10 minutes afterwards for a total calorie burn of 570 for the workout. I'm a happy girl this morning and on my 2nd 24 oz. bottle of water! :drinker:

    I hope everyone is loving their BL workouts!:bigsmile:

    Hi all~

    I am a huge BL fan.....I am currently using Cardio Max and Jillians kickboxing about 4 times per week...I have recently added weight training in at my local gym. While I am at the gym I hop on a machine similiar to a stair stepper, but not (it is just like running bleachers without the strain on your knees) I absolutely love this machine....I do about 30 mins on that after the weights. I also recently bought the BL Bootcamp dvd, but have not opened it up yet. I think the biggest reason that I like the BL series is that they incorporate all the exercises that I grew up with....no funny, strange moves to learn - all just "old school tried and true" moves. I will continue to read your posts about the 30 day shred...I am considering getting that as well.....

    Anyway, this will help keep me in line knowing that I will have to post what I have done for the evening. I plan on the Cardio Max and Jillians kickboxing tonight again...I am addicted. I have no idea how many calories I burn doin these...I hope to get a HRM sometime soon so I can have accurate numbers.

    Hope everyone has a great weekend!!

    I hope everyone has a great weekend, stay motivated and focused! It can be so hard to stay on track on the weekends. Have a good one! :drinker:
