Hello

I am planning on starting Ripped in 30 on Monday the 24/10/11 and looking for people to join me! I have done other Jillian Michaels workouts and really like her!

I know there are a couple of groups already going but it would be nice to start together with a few people.

I believe it is advised to stay on a level till you feel you have mastered it. I think I will do that but not stay on a level for more than 10 days. Plus I will take 1 or 2 days off. Probably Saturday and Sunday will be my days off!

Anyone up for joining in?

    I will join you. but I will do the 30 DS since that is the dvd that I have. I have taken about a month off and just concentrated on walking/running/elliptical/cycling so it is time to get back to work!

  • I'll start with you. I am ready for my second shot of her R30. I lost 15lbs the first time I did it. It was extremely challenging and I loved it. So, count me in! Let's get this weight off and start building muscle!

    I did the 30DS and got great results, plus I was more dedicated to exercising every day. I need something to kick me back into high gear!

    Wow that's amazing! I would be very happy with that! What weights did you use? For the other JM workouts I have done I used two bottles filled with water (I am a poor student) and that worked well but now not sure if that would be heavy enough?

    I'm in! I need something to kick my butt back in gear after taking a break from exercising after vacation, family visits and etc. I also will be starting a 30 day challenge for hot yoga 11/7/11 so this should get me in gear for that also!!

    Great to have so many people on board! Looking forward to getting started! I haven't been exercising for a while now so we'll see how it goes.
  • Hurray! Nice to have that people joining!!

    When I started I was using 3 lbs and I was hurting, but that was four months ago. I am going to use 15 lbs just to chanllenge myself. If not, then I decrease it to 8 or 10 lbs.

    Yay I'm done with day 1 too :) Frst time I've used this site .. i'm hoping i'll get past day 10 this time :D I'm hoping to do 6W6P/killer buns along side too ? Maybe I'm being a bit too ambitious , does evryone do cardio alongside it too ? I really need to measure as I know it's motivating when you start to see some imporvement!

    Day 1 complete! I used 5 LB weights, which was good since it challenged me- BUT I almost dropped them when doing the side lunges w/ front arm raises- BRUTAL! I might have to get my 3LBS out for that one and then go back to my 5's for the rest...OR i could just suck it up I guess. hahaha!
    My fav move would have to be the squat w/ over head lifts- i neeeeed the dreaded backs of my legs TONE!!
    Cant wait for day 2!!

    flabwillbefab- Im with you on the PUSH UPS!! I thought I could 'hang' and started off doing the normal ones- only to end up on my knees after about 3. haha. Hoping to be able to work up to all normal ones by the end of week 1...but I will NOT be sad to see them GO!!!!!! hahahha

    kcstens - I try and get another form of strait cardio in too- 3-4ish times a week on top of the video. I normally run (sometimes a steady run sometimes a HIIT) on the treadmill for about 30 mins (or 3ish miles).

    Okay, so I haven't done mine yet. I will be doing it during my lunch break. I use three and five lb weights. Just depends on my activity level prior to working out. bought the Killer buns and thighs dvd so I may do it along with 30 DS. Good luck to everyone!!!!
