    Yup, you need weights right away..... I'm doing the shred too w/ a couple other ladies. One of them uses cans..... She said it worked fine.

    GOOD LUCK!!!! :wink: :heart: :flowerforyou: :bigsmile:

    The weights don't have to be very heavy.

    I just use 3lb weights but you can always just do 2lbs but using the weights does help with toning faster...

    i just started the shred last night. it does require weights right away. i have some 3lb dumbbells that i used (wish i had 2lbs...lol). you might be able to get away with using the larger canned goods until you can get some small free weights. it's a really good workout. i can't imagine that i'll be moving to level 2 anytime soon.

    She just says weights, not a certain amount. I use 5 lbs, but I admit that several of the exercises are difficult.
