Great job Amanda! Btw, you will love the shred.
thanks.. it hurts but i like it already!... i meant bye bye.. wow retard moment lol
I knew what you meant lol0 -
I will get started with both after work. We had a weather scare in Memphis so I couldn't get to the gym, but I'm all over it tonight. Congrats to those who have been able to do both so far.0

I had a setback and couldn't do Day 8 until tonight... even after 5 days w/o doing the shred, I did not lack in the endurance department. So happy with tonight's results! 0

I ran my 40 minutes.... total of 50 minutes after cool down 3.85 miles almost didn't make 10 minutes cause my legs and calves are so sore from the 1st day of shred.... and I did the shred after.. did all strength movements and abs.. only some cardio cause i already ran so much and my legs are so sore i couldn't do any of the lunges or squats
.. I'll be doing the shred tonight after work... my legs are so sore though! I might have to stick to upper body/abs/and cardio moves again... hopefully they will start to adapt... HAPPY SHREDING EVERYONE! 0 -
I just restarted 30 day shred today I am hoping I keep it up and I will do C25K starting Friday afternoon, already sore so I will definitely have to work a little harder to get the soreness out.0

Fantastic! I actually was going to start C25k again today but I am currently on round 2 of 30 DS! Feel free to add me always looking for support!
Deciding since I wasnt loosing as much as I wanted I needed to add running back into my routine to give me and extra boost!
we'll see what happens...

I haven't had a chance to weigh in, but I am losing some inches. No more hops when I put on my jeans that I retired this past November. Woo hoo! I finished w1d3 of c25k yesterday. I finished L1D4 of the 30 Day Shred Saturday. I wanted to do the 30 day shred yesterday, but the heel of my foot was hurting. Heading to the shoe store to get some good running shoes after work.0

so much for having a group lol0
-
There is a 30DS group on here, all you should join over there so we can talk about 30DS AND C25k together.
I started 30DS and c25k last week.
I am on day 6 of 30ds and wk2d1 of c25k. I do them back to back I usually do the 30ds first then run but today I just did c25k and getting ready to do 30ds. I had workers here and I dont think they would like to see me do the 30ds through the window

Amanda... I totally thought I replied here last night. I swear sometimes my posts get lost in cyberspace. lol
I have good news though... I finished Level 1 of 30DS tonight! Yay for me! It's still a sweaty workout for me, but I have gained so much endurance and strength. So excited to start Level 2 on Thursday!
Morissa... What is the group called? Do I need an invite?0 -
I'l be finishing level 1 this weekend and starting fresh with level 2 on sunday or monday... I had to take a break from exercise yesterday and tonight as well... and friday cause i have plans but 4 days this week should be good... My calfs were really sore and my hip was bothering me so I thought I was due for a couple days of rest.. but i'm really gonna push out my run and the shred tomorrow.. need to be down another pound this week to be on track for vaca! 0

Can't wait to wear smaller jeans that are just sitting in my closet!0 -
So I kinda took 2 days off, oops. But I am still doing both the 30DS and C25K. I am starting Week 2 of the C25K today! And I am on day 9 of level 1 of 30DS. I really like the 30DS, I feel like my arms and legs are already getting stronger. AFter the first two days my legs hurt from the lunges, but now its getting easier. I tried level 2 on saturday after I did my level 1 workout just to see if I could do it. I was able to do some but had to take breaks. The C25k hasn't been too hard yet, of course it was only week 1! I do my running for that after the shred. I feel like it would be harder to go out and run and then have to do the shred, so I use the shred as a warm up to my run.0
-
how was level 2.. i've heard its easier then 1.. did you have to take breaks cause you were a little warn out from level 1.. or was it hard...0

yes its not to late.. welcome! I also do my running on tues, thurs saturday.. I generally take fridays off cause i worka t a pizza place and i get home lateish... starting level 2 of shred on Sunday/Monday

not going out for pizza now yes!!!!!!!
gonna have a salad instead0 -
I run, and I started the 30DS last week, so I guess I'm in! Question for you guys....did anyone have soreness on the outside of their thighs when first starting the Shred? I was OK last week, as far as the soreness was concerned. But then something happened.... Last Saturday I ran 5 miles, then followed it with day 3 of the Shred. I think I was OK after that. Day 4 Shred on Sunday - something happened. My outer thigh was quite sore Monday, and again yesterday when I did Day 5 - so much so that I really had a hard time with any of the squats/lunges (but especially the side lunge). I was supposed to do day 6 today, but I can't - my leg is really bothering me. Did anyone else have this? I run, so I didn't expect my legs to hurt, but these lunges are killing me!! I don't know how you guys do this for 30 days straight!!!0

Amanda… Are your calves sore from running or 30DS? I need to watch those pre-packaged salads when shopping at Trader Joe’s… I brought one to work today (without reading the label… I hardly EVER do that) and I was sticker-shocked! Tomorrow, I am making my own salad.
Hi Alicia… I’m tired just reading your workout schedule. LOL I haven’t started the C25K yet, but I was wondering how to log it as well… I think separating the walk minutes from the jog minutes is probably the easiest. Btw, welcome.
lyoung… I remember the first two days of Level 1 and thought there was no way I could continue, but of course I did, and I am getting stronger every day. I’m the same way… I do 30DS first and a cardio session after.
ekball… I just finished Level 1 of 30DS, and I can’t say that I’ve had extended thigh pain… definitely after the workout, but the next day I usually felt fine. I hope your thigh feels better soon.
Time for my cardio workout! See you tomorrow...0 -

Yes , I did have the outer thigh pain. It was only for the first few times though. And I did kinda take two days off after day 6...
I'm sure that helped with the leg pain/recovery. Now that I am on day 10 of the shred, I don't notice it anymore. It is definitely from the side lunges, I had never done them before nor noticed those muscles being tired/sore. Keep at it and eat protein! It will get better! I run too, after I do the shred. I start week 2 day 1 of c25k today. Also, you run a lot already, so that probably adds to your legs being tired.0
