    I'd like to do another DVD a group of people as it helps me so much with being accountable. I'm not in a position to be the leader/administrator though ;) I'm happy to go with the flow :)

    I've got Ripped in 30 waiting in a drawer, still in the plastic. :blushing: Anyone else interested in continuing after the Shred and doing Ripped in 30?

    Another idea is to mix up the Shred and do a leve 1/2/3 routine where we do level 1 on Monday, level 2 on Tuesday, level 3 on Wednesday, level one on Thursday and so forth....

    I'm totally open. I just know I need the group to keep me going.


    !!!!!!You guys are great!!!!!!
    [/quote]I agree! I'd definitely be in on whatever you guys wanted to do next!!
    Love the 'before' and 'during' pictures already! GREAT job!
    This group is going strong. Illnesses and life getting in the way is to be expected, but I'm so impressed with you guys overall!

    I am still dealing with strep, and Halloween's busy season, and did end up missing 2 days. Sunday made Day 10 of level 1 for me, so I plan to start level 2 today. I've got a leg injury and can't run again tonight, hoping to get back into that game Thursday. Between then and now, I better kick butt on level 2, b/c it'll be all I'm really doing!

    Sorry to hear about your leg. I'm in the same boat. Are you modifying the workouts or are you able to get through them but just not run? I literally can't do any jumping. Still going to slowly step through things and do Levels 1 and 2 today to burn some more calories. Supposed to do a 4.5 mi run but that is out. Maybe stationary bike? I'd love to know how you work around injuries.
    Hope you feel better (strep)!

    Thank you! The strep is on it's way out, with the help of antibiotics. I'm sorry about your injury, too! You are much more advanced than I am for running, I am only stalled on week 5 of the C25K. I'm doing a lot of spinning, some walking, and some slacking TBH, in the meantime. For the 30DS, I am cutting the jumping jacks, butt-kicks, and most of the jump-roping... I'm kind of running in place or running around my house during those times, sometimes I do my stairs over and again. I had shin-splits at first, and those activities felt WORSE than running for them! I'm also just trying to be careful with my knees during the squats and lunges.
    Good luck! Hope you heal quickly!

    Thanks. I am doing the same thing with 30DS. I just substitute where I can--like the punches. I love the C25K program!!! I used to run a lot (marathons) then got injured and couldn't really do anything. Finally in Feb., I just started very easily. Really--like a mile, which was really hard. My lungs were on fire. My kids were laughing at me because I used to be able to beat them. During the spring and summer I just added tiny bits and walked a lot. In Sept. I was probably up to 3 miles, so I started B210K. I finished that mid Oct. and started Hal Higdon's 1/2 marathon training. Then boom--my calf on Sunday. Not going to panic. I'm scheduled to run the Pittsburgh Marathon in May, so no big worries yet. Just important to get healthy and not push it.(which was what I'd do in the past) Congratulations on C25K!!!! Let me know how it's going. It's so inspiring to hear of people's progress, especially when things come up and some how they keep with it. It's all good!!!!!

    Cristi, that's great! I'm sorry you hit a roadblock, but sounds like you will ease past it. I can't wait to be able to run like that!


    OK, I did level one today! ROUGH! So I'm at 11 days, 1 at level 2, 10 at level one.

    How are you guys feeling on results? I'm definitely noticing. I had started the Shred before this thread, then re-started it to join the group, so I had a few days extra, but still, I can definitely see a difference. I'll have to remeasure soon...

    Day 15 and 16 done! Level 2 (day 5 and 6)!

    Oh-my-gosh.. me too... did you almost die between sessions?! I had skipped one day (after finishing the first 10 days of level 1) Now I'm back on track with day 6 (16) of level two. Alllllmost chickened out after the first round though. Well done! :drinker:

    Level2 day 5 (?) completed. Never managed a shred last night cos we were at the Alice Cooper Halloween show which was fantastic! Didn't shred, but probably jumped about and danced enough to make up for it ;)!

    I was hoping to do a level 3 to catch up, but then was going to back out, until I read the previous posts... Wish me luck- here goes nothing!!
