I know I can't be the only one out there! Jillian's 30DS is an awesome work out but it is very obvious Ms. Jillian has never had children and ain't over 40. All those jumping jacks are way too much for my bladder post two children. Kind of discouraging. Depends here I come :laugh:

    I have been doing the 30DS for a while now. I started with Level 1 for several days straight and my knees and hips were killing me. Climbing stairs about did me in. No bladder issues since I don't have kids.
    So I have been doing it several days a week and the other days I do other exercise; yoga, Elliptical and other cardio. I am still seeing a good change in my body and I my joints aren't killing me.
    I am at Level 2 and thinking I probably need to jump up to Level 3 one of these days.

    Haven't had that with the 30day shred but do when I play a good game of tennis. My doctor told me to take sudafed about 30 minutes prior to playing. Seems to help.
  • The jumping jacks were an issue for me as well. I like the ripped in 30 better.

    4 kids here so I know what you're going through. Please incorporate kegels into your daily routine. You'll feel a difference in a matter of a couple of weeks. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/kegel-exercises/WO00119
