For some reason those plank into the squats were fairly easy for me. I guess because I've been doing planks and squats forever. It was also really hard keeping my balance on the front kick back kick without putting that leg down. I had to really focus on a spot on the wall for that one.
I hated the Planks on 6w/6p and never got strong in them...but i didnt like them then and especially dont like them now..BUT I LOVE THE BURNED! DAY 2 here we go...0 -
You ladies are making me super excited to do this in a bit. My measurements are H-41, LT-23, RT-23. I'm in another group doing 30DS so I'll probably be dead tomorrow!! Lol0

hi guys!!!! looks like everyone's doing so well!!! YAY!!!
my least favorite moves so far:
-side plank (& lifting the bottom leg) :grumble:
-chair pose on one leg
that lady is CRAZY!!!! & i LOVE it!!!
measured my waist (for you steph!!!!!!) 28.5 inches0 -
OMG that side plank leg lift pose?:mad: I do the beginner version and I am always shaking like a leaf while the lady on TV is doing it like a model LMAO uh oh that is going to take a minute to master that one:devil: those plank hamstrings get me everytime:frown: but when Jillian tells me I will be able to wear my heels and look bangin' in my skinny jeans then I know I will be back at it again:bigsmile:0

Awesome job everybody!! So proud of you
I hurt my back this weekend, so holding off one more day before doing it again, but I did it for the first time last Sat. Loved it!! But definitely tough. Did yoga tonight, so hoping that that helps my back.
Oh, and I think someone asked about cals burned? I did 336 on Sat. dlj0 -
burned 477 the first day!0

For those who don't have a HRM, how are you entering it into your exercise diary? Circuit training I guess?0

Well I know most pals have a HRM but I would measurement it up with my other long workouts...if you think its more intense give yourself extra cals burned...Either way it goes...your eating is on point..You will still lose..Thats what i use to do when i didnt have one..Hope this helps..0 -
Completed Day 2 of Jillian and MAN....I thought i wasnt as sore but when i got down to do those same moves..THOSE areas were burning...My Cal burn wasnt as high so i assuming that i am adjusting accordingly....
Checking in with a 39 minutes 599 cal burn per HRM....YEAH!! Tomorrow is rest day...THANK GOODNESS..0 -
Completed day one and burned almost 400 calories. Definitely am glad I decided to do this!!
Still am trying to figure out how to add this thread to my feed though.0 -

I have a cheapo HRM, so I normally don't use it all the time. I am logging this as 40 min of circuit training, and for me it gives me 315 burned. Not sure how accurate this is, but I normally go by what MFP gives me and it seems to be working out so far.
Good luck to everyone, and oh yes, that chair pose on one leg is killer!!0 -
hey qbee, because you've responded to this post... it will now show up on your profile under "recent forum posts"... so you can easily access it!!!
great job everyone!!!! we are certainly gonna have some killer buns & thighs soon :happy:0 -
I agree that side plank positioning is just odd. It's not even my legs that hurt as much as my shoulder. I can't seem to stretch into that pose the right way!
Did my second day today!
And when I was thinking of how much it sucked, I remembered everyone else out there who is powering through. Thanks for the motivation!0 -
Did Day 3 today after taking a rest day yesterday. It must have helped because I didnt hurt one bit today and it felt good. I did make sure that when doing the warm up I really stretched it out good!,Those side planks are hard for me because I have weak wrists and have a hard time supporting my body weight. Especially on my left side:sad: And I really have to concrentrate to be able to do the front and back kicks while balancing on one leg so I dont fall over! But I am loving this workout!!:happy: However my calorie burn is so low, only 199 today for 41 minutes. Everyone have a great Thursday! 0

I think the more you are in shape the lower your burn is...I am assuming so that leaves me OUT OF SHAPE:sad: BUT I am not giving up because after this butt kicking I will be so IN SHAPE!! and plus you all have my back... BUT today I THOUGHT i wasnt sore..UNTIL i got down to do those same moves:noway: my cal was lower so I was a little excited i must admit..BUT those planks i know will never get easy along with those butt kicks over the shoulder umm NO! LOL...0 -
Hello ladies
weight 170.8
hips 41"
thighs 25" (both)
I just joined! I got my dvd yesterday and also did my first day yesterday. My hrm read 473 calories for my first go but will admit I didn't give it my all, cause I had to watch the move first then jump in. Hated side plank with leg raise but loved plank squat
but my favs are planks anyway. Glad to join in and get some support and motivation 0 -
Whoa! Just did level 2 and OUCH! I know my hamstrings are going to be sore tomorrow. I had a couple of interruptions this mornig due to kids and a phone call but they were welcomed because I needed to stop for a breather and water. Some of the moves were really easy for me yet others really had me dying.0

Hey girlie...We do have one more curvelicious dime piece..No worries you may have the hips but honey that waistline is so the truth..LOVE your shape...I can just picture it honey!! We are so going to rock this!!0 -
Hi ladies, sorry I'm late, thanks to sexycook for the memo. My DVD didn't come yesterday and my mailman delivers late, so I guess I will be behind. The worse part is I saw it the other day at target!
My measurements (gained an inch everywhere recently due to a failed pregnancy :frown: ):
Waist - 26. Hips - 36. saddlebag Area- 37. thighs 22.5, left a few mm bigger
Today I did Week 4 of Ripped in 30 followed by Butt Bible (a tough workout I ordered before I heard about Jillians). My parents are in town so I will probably have to start tomorrow if I get the DVD tonight.
What kind of diet are people doing? I am set at 1250+exercise cals, I find lower carbs helps my lower body0 -
So I did Level 1 this morning and I did all the advanced moves plus weights. I am so happy I was able to make it though!!! I challenged myself to get a higher calorie burn.
Those who are getting a low burn, do you have light weight or heavier more challenging weights? I think until Level 2, that piece will make a big diference in the burns.
Yes I agree with everyone on the least like moves......Man those one legged chair poses are a bear and the plank to squats are a BEAST!!0 -

I am using 5 lbs weights. I am about 10 lbs away from my goal, so my calorie burn has gotten lower as I have lost weight. I may have a lower weight but I dont know about being in better shape! Lol. I still have a lot of toning to do. I just have to work harder and maybe longer for better burns! I am on 1330 + exercise calories. One of the reason I want bigger burns, I want to eat more!! I am definately sticking with this, I need toned legs, mine are muscular.0 -

Today I did level one advance moves with weights again which makes it's my third day. This dvd is kicking my butt. I so LUV the program beacuse I am getting a killer burn and I know I am getting a effective workout due to the soreness. I did Brizal Butt Lift and paid over $70.00 for the dvd and I didn't an effective workout like it get from Jillian killer buns and thigs which was only $8.00. SMH at myself.
