    I haven't really stayed on the band wagon when it comes to the 30DS group you have, but when I DO the workouts, my thighs KILL. It's even hard to sit down without using my arms!

    I am on Day 10 Level 1 now. I felt better on day 3 but then day 5 I started to get sore again since I was able to sink lower in the squats and use heavier weights on some of the arm stuff. The way I see it, if it is making me sore then it's gotta be working.

    I noticed that when I did day three it felt good to work those muscles that were sore. Day four done and not in that much pain anymore. Hang in there it gets better!!

    Try some ice on the calves and some stretches during the day. I put my toes up on a really low shelf and stretch. The calves are my sorest spot today. If it were too easy then would it be working out? :laugh:

    I agree! I completed it last Sunday and the first 3 days of every level was the toughest. Hang in there, it gets more managable and it WORKS!

    I quit the first time I tried it last year because of this! It was when I first started out losing weight and working out so I was SO unfit! :embarassed:

    But, I did it again in Jan/Feb this year and completed the whole thing, I was determined not to let her beat me again! I still had the aches for the first few days though, it started easing off about day 4/5!

    YOU CAN DO IT! :happy:

    It will get better. You can consider doing extre strechting than in the DVD it should help.

    I don't mean to be rude and butt into your thread - but I was wondering if any of your JM people could explain the 3-2-1 method to me real quick? I am finishing my current workout program and looking into doing the 30 DS...

    hang in there! Tonight is D10L1, and the soreness isn't so bad. It tends to hit me in different spots each time, but fabulous things are going on with my body shape so it's worth it!

    Day 3 and 4 of the first week are the worst! Sitting down, taking the stairs was a nightmare, my tip is to just try to walk and sit down as normal as you can or it just gets worse. After day five it gets better.

    pain is temporary. pride is forever. if you need a day to recuperate, thats fine, but get back on the horse and know that you can do more!!
