i did my first workout today, a few minutes ago actually..it was hard but not impossiable, and thats coming from some one who weighs 220lbs . really enjoyed it

I started mine on 1/22. It is a hard workout, but believe me each day you do it the better it gets. I love it I am 333 pounds and able to do it. The jumping jacks are a little hard for me, but I will get there.

I've started and stopped this DVD twice now. Looking forward to actually sticking with it. :-)

I just started 1/23/2012 It is a very hard work out I have to say day 2 was better but I am feeling it though. I know that is a good thing. I can't wait till it becomes easy.

I actually "started" last Tuesday and have done 4 workouts. Had to take a day off here and there. Will jump back on in teh morning and can use this group for support.

I bought the video and weights today, I sat through and watched the 1st step so I would know what to expect. I am going to start tomorrow (1/25/12). A lot of the exercises look old school, so they aren't very complicated.

I started the 30 day shred yesterday. I had to take a few breaks but I did finish. Using muscles I forgot I even had. I did feel great at the end of the level 1 and I am proud of myself that I did it. :happy:

I plan on starting today! I hit a plateau and really want to get though it. Hope 30 day shred helps.

Starting for the 2nd time....Did this last spring and summer and got great results! Sadly, I got mono in August of last year and stopped my workouts for a little bit and haven't been able to get "in the swing of things" again. Really focused this time to stick with it!! WE CAN DO THIS!!!!! :happy:

Starting on 1-26:)

Started on 01.23.12. Tonight will be level 1, day 3. I plan to power through 30 days straight. PLAN being the key word. Keep up the great work everyone! We can do it!

Hello fellow Shredders and Shredettes!

I did my first workout yesterday (24/1/12... I'm from the UK, so my dates are all backwards )and second today... Also doing C25K, but just finished week 2 of that so I'm hoping that and 30DS together will help me shift my 'mum tum'!

I took my measurements and before pics today too... scary stuff looking at pics of me in my undies! I've got a bum like a sack of potatoes

Anyhoo.. looking forward to making this epic journey with a few other people. My husboond just laughs at me flapping about, so it'll be good to have some people to share the pain with!

I'm aiming to do it 6 days a week. I'm starting a pilates class in a few weeks, so will be doing a pilates dvd on sundays to brush up on my stretching.

It'll be interesting to see which kills me first through, C25k or 30DS!

I have done the 30DS on and off for the last 5 weeks. Gonna do daily now for 30. Thanks for the group. Will count today 1-25-12 as day 1.

Started 30D shred yesterday 1/24. I attempted this about a year ago and was doing every day until I developed severe pain and swelling in my knee and had to stop. I think it was the high impact jumping jacks and butt kicks that were the problem. I'm trying again now, but modifying as follows: Doing every other day to allow some recovery--I'm doing another workout on off days; I do low impact jumping jacks, and replace butt kicks with knee lifts. I'm modifying squats and lunges and not going all the way down. I did for the first time last night and honestly with all the modifications I didn't really feel like I had exerted myself much. I"m not sore today. I used 3 lb and 5 lb weights. I just don't want to blow out my knee which I already have constant pain in, so I'm trying to protect it. But I like the 30 day Shred so its a dilemma. I hate feeling like I can't work out hard! I'll give it a try though and see what happens. Maybe I can pump it up a notch if all goes well!
