    Hey ladies!! Last night was my first night doing the video and to be honest I could not get through the entire video. I only completed 10 minutes. I have never really worked my legs muscles besides walking or cycling so they are weak. I guess if I just keep at it they'll get stronger. On the brighter side, the intense 10 minute workout did burn some cals and I lost 7 tenths since yesterday. Just imagine if I would have finished. I will definitely keep at it! I need all the support I can get!

    Ten minutes is awesome for never working out your legs so be proud. Keep at it and real soon you will be going through the entire dvd telling jillian now what you got more cause yes your legs will get stronger and stronger. I am able to keep up because I did insanity which is a lot of legs movements but my legs are getting a killer burn from jillian. Congrats on the 7 tenth like you said image when you do the whole 35-45 minutes can you say one sexy bootie.

    Today is rest day from killer buns and thighs because I completed day four yesterday. I did do jillian michael 6 wks/6 pks abs. I burn 561 calories. My legs are a lil sore. I will be resting sunday also due to no time to workout I will be working two jobs. I will right back in the swing of things monday. I think next week I will do five days instead of four, don't know yet I will know by wednesdays of next week.

    Ladies ya'll are doing a phenomenal job. Keep up the spectacular progress.

    Awesome job pushing yourself through 10mins, it will get easier as you get stronger. Keep on Pushing.

    I finally got my DVD today & will be starting Monday. I will be a week behind but am looking forward to this and the results that follow! Have a great weekend everyone!

    I did level 1 again, this time with 3lb ankle weights - ouch, especially during the plank to squats and high knees. Burned more though, 320 cals. Followed it up with ripped in 30 week 4 after an hour break

    A agree with Committohealth. This is a super hard workout if you aren't use to doing lunges and squats and stuff already. I've already been working my butt and thighs hard for the past year and I still felt the burn and have to press pause. Keep up the great work! You'll get there.

    Everyone is doing fabulous!!!!! Was suppose to have a rest day today but my mom did the workout with me so this gave me a day 5 yay:bigsmile: I am getting a lot better with the moves and this is becoming a favorite workout for me so far.

    I use Jillian Michael calves weights and ouch is right doing planks to squats and high knees. I literally be in tears. It also burns my inner thighs like crap while doing the inner thighs moves ,(the ones where she have you open your legs at a angel and get on your tip toes). Killer on the inner thighs.

    Hope your back be feeling better so you can join us again. Are you doing a hybrid with 6wks/6pks abs & killer buns/thighs.

    I ate bad today also cause my baby girl turn 18, I guess that mean she is not a baby anymore. We celebrated at a jazz festival and ate some high calories food.

    I hope it's ok that I'm going through the levels earlier. I just like to keep my workouts mixed up. Did level 3 this morning and it is a MONSTER!! I'm going to be going through all three levels and maybe throwing in one of her other workouts in here and there. This is an excellent workout!
