    I think i'm going to start with 3lbs weights, anyone else?

    I've always used 2lb weights, mainly because they were cheaper, haha, but it burns plenty with Jillians exercises.

    good to know, thanks

    I have 3, 5 and 8 pound weights. Start with the 3 and hopefully move up as I go up levels. Kinda hard for 8 pounds in last level but last time I just switched back and forth. But definitly starting with 3 pounds!!

    I use 3lb weights with no probs because they were all I had. Well, besides the 10lbers. I started Monday and today is my day 4 of level 1 and i am NOT near as sore as I was yesterday. Day 2 I could not even sit down on the toilet without my thigh muscles hurting so bad I wanted to cry! But I will tell you what helped me. I soaked in a hot bath for about 20 mins then my hubs rubbed my thighs down with Tylenol Precise. Took some Advil and I was not 100% but I would say I was 85%. I am still not 100% but it IS getting better!!

    I remember that pain. Its kinda awkward to scream in pain in a public stall :embarassed:

    Of course! I have no idea what I have done to make this a secret club but anyone who can figure out how to make it visible in a search gets the legend of the week badge!

    Yep, so glad I'm not the only one who had super sore thighs after day 1 - it gets better quite quickly but prepare yourself for gingerly lowering yourself onto the loo and whimpering!

    Okay everyone can someone tell me how long does it take to complete the exercises for each day? I work crazy hours and will try to at least get 3 days a week in :noway: . I will post my measurements on Sunday and hopefully can add my before picture added.

    The whole video, from start to finish, is under 30 mins. That includes the cool down. That's one of my fave things about the Shred. You get BIG results out of such a small window of time. The last time I did the Shred and was really conscious of what I ate, I lost almost 20 pounds and everyone kept commenting on how fabulous my muscles looked. It even inspired a bunch of my friends to buy the video.

    I've tried starting up a second 30 day spree a couple times but really need the social support. So glad this group got started! :)

    I'd be willing to be brave and post a before pic... as long as someone can tell me how. Durrr.... :blushing:

    Feel free to add me! I'm sure I'll have a lot to post about when I start shredding!

    I shall put all my measurements on later - will have to wait until OH comes back from work and help measure..

    I am starting the 30DS today but only doing every other day and planning on doing Level 1 throughout Feb and starting Level 2 throughout March every other day - this way I may actually stick to it!

    I am starting 30 Day Shred so I can get into shape. I am a very weak person, and I can't even run up a flight of stairs without feeling dead at the top and losing my breath!! Hopefully 30 Day Shred will help me get into better shape! I have been doing Zumba every week day, but I am only going to do the shred, for now.

    I am starting at 140 pounds.
    Waist (navel): 29in
    Hips: 40
    Thigh: 23
    Arm: 11 1/2
    Chest: 37

    sounds awesome to me!!! I heard level 2 is harder than level 3. Just a little FYI in case you think level 2 was to hard to go on to 3...give 3 a try before making that decision :)


    I HATE level two(it's just not as much fun as level 1)......got stuck there twice before.....never made it to level 3 :-(
