    I went for a run today for the first time since starting the shred and noticed my endurance is way up even though I haven't found the shred to be all that difficult so far (finished day 5 level 1 today). Definitely a good workout!

    Just finished L1D5. Woo!!! I'm a big girl but I did it. But I hate push-ups and jumping jacks....stupid jumping jacks are giving me shin splint issues.

    Just finished day 2 morning of level one. I have decided to do this TWICE per day. Once before breakfast and once before dinner after I get home from work. Pray for me :)

    Im on day 5, and it definitely a good workout. My only real problem is I feel like the DvD is intended for girls. But definately a great workout. I could do it twice a day, but I prefer to do alternate forums of exercise as well, such as karate or hockey, so I just do both in the day

    I did think about doing this twice per day, but fear I am no way strong enough yet! I've only done 2 days so far then had a bout of food poisoning that I am still recovering from. If I feel I'm starting to get stronger with it, then I may increase it to twice a day. I'm practically at my ideal weight/size now so am looking to tone up (something I have never done before!) will be very interested to hear how you get on with twice a day. Best of luck!

    I missed what was suppose to be day 3 level 1 so to make up for it I did it twice the next day. It wasn't too bad. My legs got the rest they needed from taking that one day off and since then it's been much easier. I don't do it 2 times everyday though. Good luck if you do though!!!

    I'm on day 6 of L2 and I just want to say before you buy check your on Demand on cable if you have it. L1 & L2 are there for Free. There is a girl on Youtube who does the workout and I was just going to watch her for L3 then I found the dvd at a garage sale this weekend for .50 ! score.
