    awesome! I was thinking of doing a practice run of walking, as I have been inactive for like 2 weeks and I gotta get in the grove!

    I started yesterday (11/5) as a "kick in the butt" to get off my plateau!! Perfect timing -- I need the accountability or I'll find a way to talk myself out of doing it :laugh:

    I've never finished a full 30 days. Something always gets in the way and I just stop doing it. I'd love to join a group with my fingers crossed that a little accountability will push me through ;)

    Bumping to follow along. I am focusing on Ripped in 30 right now but had the crazy thought I should do both... Either back to back workouts or an am/ pm schedule. If I do make the attempt, can I follow along with you here? It helps to share the torture! :) just did Ripped, week 1, day 1 today. :)

    Good luck to you all :)

    I am doing a hybrid between 30 Day Shred and Killer Buns and Thighs. Can I join or is this ONLY for 30 Day shred. I am alternating between the 2 programs right now. Let me know if it is okay or not. :-)

    day one nearly killed me and my husband(a bit more literally- i smacked him in the head with the weight on accident ) I am so sore. I wish I watched the video before starting because i wasted a lot of time standing there trying to understand how they were posed and doing everything. And i think 10lb weights were a bit heavy to start off with. I had fun though and only wondered "how much onger" when i was in pain. not boring. Or and I had to modify some movements(jumping jacks, butt kicks, and jump rope, because my house shook too much in the living room doing them and we have a lot of pottery in the living room. so i just had to do those later.

    I hope i have the strength(and time) to do it again today. DH's head is pretty badly bruised so he will be sitting out for a bit.



    Good luck everyone!

    I finished day 1... with the slight cheat in that I don't currently own weights. :ohwell:
    What is a good starting weight? I don't want to pick up something so light I'll only use for a little while but I also don't want to hurt myself. I was thinking 5 to 8 lbs? Anyone have any thoughts or advice?

    i started with ten and it was a BAD idea. i am not very strong at all and have never done anything like this before. i plan to not use weight today and then do 2lbs tomorrow then 5 then 8 then back to ten

    Can I join? I am looking for a smaller group starting somewhere around today (I am starting today). Is this going to be a small gourp? What is everyone's plan? I am going to do 10 days at each level.

    I have done 30 Shred quite a bit. I started out with NO weights, and it was more than enough workout for me (I was a total weakling, who hadn't worked out in over 3 years), I then moved up to 1.5 LBS and used those for quite awhile. I finished up with 3 LBS. I am starting back up tonight, after about a year of not working out. I am going to start with no weights. Jillian herself uses like 5 LBers. I would say do not go over 5 LBS. My hubby was going it with me for awhile and used 8LbS. I would suggest going lighter, since there are so many reps.

    My DVD was supposed to be here yesterday, but should come today, according to the website! Can't wait!

    Oh, and there's now a group for the 30 day shred in the groups section.

    Hi guys, I would love to join as well. I started the 30 day shred yesterday. Did day 2 this morning, so glad to get it out of the way for the day! I am planing on doing 10 days at each level as well.

    I didn't do it yesterday, since I take Zumba on Monday/Wednesday... but today my 19-year old son decided to try it with me! By the end of the first set he was panting and yelling at JM to "shut up already"......LOL He's decided I work out alot more than he realized =)

    Day 2 today, Zumba tomorrow, early/late day Thursday so no exercise, then Day 3 on Friday. I sometimes hate my schedule -- it really messes with my workouts!!!
