    Today was my first day of week 3 which included workout 3 as well as cardio 1. Even with both workouts I only burned 446 calories BOOO. Workout 3 was good it was a little step up from workouts 1 and 2, but definitely still manageable! There wasn't a single second during the workout where I thought I couldn't handle it or couldn't breathe. The bottom line is that workout 3 is still VERY beginner especially if you've had experience with JIllian before! Excited to do workout 4 for the first time tomorrow!

    Today was my first day of week 3 as well. Congrats to you for being so in shape because workout 3 kicked my bootie! I have not done a lot of Yoga in the past so I definitely had to pause and back it up a few times trying to get it right. The hardest move for me was the crab move of all things. I made it through though and am proud. :)

    Anyone following the 90 day meal plan strictly? I'm having a hard time finding all the ingredients. Also, can we still eat the foods from the kickstart plan?

    I "tasted" workout 3 today. I had done my elliptical but was itching to see how bad it would be. She mentioned that we'd be doing more jumping and honestly, I just don't jump. I'll do my best but it's going to be a double sports bra kind of thing. It wasn't as bad as I expected, but it will definitely challenge me more than the 1/2 did. I can do push ups now, I can't remember ever being able to do pushups!

    Myeatman, I believe you can do the kickstart meals anytime during the 90 days. I'm still using some of the recipes. Congrats Roander on the push ups! I about died the first time I did workout 3 but it was a lot easier the second time I did it.

    Did day one of Week 3 yesterday. There were definitely a few things I have to work up to, and it didn't seem so awful at the time, but today everything hurts!

    I haven't ordered the program yet, but plan to after we complete our taxes. Does she suggest or require you complete 2 workouts a day? I thought the "sell" of the program was 30 minutes a day? Or are you adding some additional workouts?

    I'm choosing to do two workouts a day because I feel that I'm at a higher fitness level and doing only one workout per day I hardly burn any calories. So yes the original program is only 30 mins a day :)

    If you choose to do the first week "Kickstart" you will do two workouts a day for a week - one AM and one PM.

    I did week 3, workout 3 today... ouch! I think my arms might make me suffer tomorrow lol I didn't preview it so it took me a few moments to figure out some moves (which is fine because I had to stop to catch my breath lol) I definitely felt it was a step up from the last 2 weeks... Ack... they were easy for me... today, not so much. My HRM says I burned 355 calories though, which is 75-100 more than it told me I burned in week 1 and 2... Hmmm

    I did workout 3 yesterday and this morning did workout 4. These two are definitely a step UP from workouts 1 and 2! I woke up this morning and everything was sore. But still had to push through workout 4. I'm looking forward to only doing cardio tomorrow! Lol

    Ok,I started phase 1/week 3 workout 3/'Day 15 today of Jillian Michaels Body Revolution.She promised the workouts would get harder.Well,she delivered on her promise.The plank going down on one arm then coming back up.Then doing the other arm was the hardest for me.I'm weaker in my left arm.I will have to work at that.But over all I feel great. Fantastic workout and music.Have a happy day everyone.We can do it.:happy:

    I have trouble with those down/up plank things too! And the Hollow Man, forget it. I'm up, no I'm down, I'm up! No wait...can't hold it, I'm down. I have to double up my exercise mat to do the sit on your hip, pull your legs up to your arm bit. The floor really hurts!
    Week 4 starts today.
