    I also did start today, I wanted to see what I was in for... I made it.. but had to do the easy push ups :) but I hung in there sweating my butt off also.. I think I am burning more calories than I think I am with it.. If someone figures out how we can accurately measure the total calories burned per workout that would be great!

    When I did it before Christmas -but Only got to the halfway point- I recorded it under "circuit training, general"
    Seemed to me that came pretty close, since Jillian has you do somewhat of a circuit routine.
    Hope hat helps

    I also started today..not sure how to log it. I logged under High impact aerobics. I think I did pretty well, except with the push-ups! I was exhausted and now my muscles are shaking but it sure feels good :happy:

    I completed Day 2 last night. Day 1 was a KILLER, I was so sore the next morning I couldn't move and was scared I wasn't going to be able to do it again, but I did and I am glad because this morning I felt better. Can't wait for tonight when I tackle Day 3. I am doing more jumping jacks than before, I can't do all of them so I just pretend by doing my arms and moving side to side. I hope tonight I can do a few more. Also, I can't do the push ups I have to do girly push ups...and I have a hard time doing any jumping action because I am scared I am going to give myself a black eye. LOL I need a good support LOL

    So far I am happy with it and I love how she is right there talking me through it like she is actually there helping me LOL. I am using 3 lbs weights but I tell ya my arms are shaking so bad I wonder if I should go buy some smaller weights LOL.

    I can't wait to see results!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Woowee! Felt a good burn and definitely got my sweat on!! :wink:

    For those doing it from the Youtube link (Level 1), do you just do that same workout each day?

    I started day 1 this morning & got 10 minutes in before my son woke up. He was supposed to sleep longer! :tongue: But I get off work early today so when he takes his afternoon nap I'm going to try it again. I also want to post my before pictures, I can't wait to see some results!

    Edited to add - I also did the beginner push ups. I tell ya, I was building a sweat in that 10 minutes. I like to walk & run but apparently my upper body has a loooonng way to go. I need to dig out the ole Total Gym too!

    I will be starting day one today when my kids take a nap. I have done 30ds before but only for a couple days so I know I can at least make it through the first day :) I think we should all post some B&A pics. I will put mine up soon.

    I am so sore today! My shoulders and thighs mostly. It definitely doesn't help that the smallest weights I have are 5lbs. The arm workouts were killer!

    Survived Day 1!! I could only do a couple of the push-ups and I really struggled by the third circuit lol. I started using 1 pound weights. I will have to work on the push ups through out the day to improve. I am wiped out but I feel accomplished!!

    Owch, push ups! I didn't find the rest as bad as I expected though... I think I might try level 2 tomorrow just to see how it compares!
