Day 2 of Level 2. Realized after day 1 I need to work on balance with this level. Jillian says its will get better as we get stronger. Also needed to do some additional modification since I can't be bouncing on the knees.
Ya im always modifying, for that reason!0 -
I did Level 2 Day 4 this morning, my balance is getting better, but I'm still a bit wobbly!!!
Keep up the good work everyone, it will be worth it
Good job! Keep it up!0 -
I still can't do a full on "real" pushup. I try to get about halfway down but my upper body strength is $h!t. I feel like I have made progress, though, because I can hold the planks in the correct position for a more extended period of time now. 8 days down, 2 more to go!
I do the knee pushups but I couldn't do many of them at the start. I can actually do half a real pushup now! HAHA I found doing the planks in trainers instead of bare foot or in socks like I had been made it much easier!0 -
Me too i wear shoes now. As well0

Will start day 5 of level 2 today....this level is absolutely killing my knees! I ahve started doing the knee circles again befoer I start the video, it has helped a little. Was thinking about doing insanity when I was finished with 30DS, but I really don't think I am ready for that, physically or mentally. I think I may do ripped in 30 next...if level 2 and 3 doesn't kill me first!0

Started yesterday doing Level 2.....OMG! This one is intense but I love every minute of the moans and groans. I think I was making so much noise last night that my husband had to come check on me. It might have turned him on a little. Lol.

Yes the V-flys are getting easier! Today is my last day with level 2... then I'm taking a break tomorrow (no gym OR 30DS)... and on to level 3 on Sunday! Yay!!0 -
I did Day 5 this morning, half way through already!!
It's amazing how much more you can do each time you do it!0 -
Day 5 of level 2 all done!0
-
Finished Day 3 of Level 2 today. So exhausted! That work out has me sweating up a storm, but I feel so much stronger and more capable now than I did when I started. That's gotta be good!0
-
OMG Level 2 is a killer! Made it through, but it was tough! Had to do the modified exercises and took 5 second breaks.
Hopefully tomorrow will be better
Has anyone else noticed that Jillian seems to talk A LOT in this level?0 -
It is Day 10 on Level 2 for me today and I can NEARLY do all the plank exercises without having to stop!!! - I do the easier versions but my shoulder muscles weren't strong enough to start with so I had to keep stopping every few moves.
It DOES get easier if you stick at it fellow shredders!0 -
Level 2 Day 9 done this morning!
The worst bit for me is still the Cardio! No pain no gain!!!
Can't decide if I'm excited about moving on to Level 3 or not!
Keep up the good work everyone0 -
day 6 of level 2 done!0
-
I MUCH prefer Level 3 to Level 2 guys! I don't sweat as much LOL BUT there are a lot more leg exercises and the cardio exercise involve grabbing you weights! (I enjoyed that though! lol)0

They were hard but I much prefer them to the zillion planks in Level 2! lol I must have more lower body strength than upper body strength?0 -
Level 2 day 2, done!
I can't wait to move to level 3 if there are less planks. I freaking hate the plank position. HATE HATE HATE.
I trust in Jillian though and although level 1 was hard for me at the beginning, I powered through and feel MUCH stronger than I did just a few weeks ago.
I spent a little more time on level one because I did not think I could face level 2. I managed it both yesterday and today 0 -
Well, that's Level 2 Day 10 done!!
Not sure if I'm looking forward to Level 3 or not!! Will let you all know how I get on tomorrow!!!0 -
Day idk what...but level 2! lol...did it sweated..but didnt burn as many calories today as normal? I wonder why. Is it cause i didnt work as hard or is it getting easier. I felt like i worked hard as always! Hmmmm....0

Havent checked in in a while, but Level 2 is completed! Woo Hoo - not my favorite level. Cant do all the plank work, hurts my wrists. Plus, I am pretty much the most un-flexible person, so those walking push - ups were not fun, either. Here's to Level 3.
Is everyone satisfied w/ their results so far? For me, I am disappointed, not noticing much weight loss or inches lost or body changing. Maybe Level 3 will bring on some changes??? Not going to give up, going to finish strong!0 -

I havent lost weight either. But have gained a ton of stanima and strength and lost a pant size! Woohoo. Ohhh those walking pushups on level 3 r a killer! I tried level 3 once, thinking i was ready for it! Ohhh no i wasnt. Went right back down tolevel 2! I dont follow the program like most tho! Best to u with level 3 ! Im sure ur gaining plenty of muscle if anything! Im glad ur not giving up!0 -
Day 1 done - well buggar me! LOL To quote my Facebook status
"holy crap! I think Jillian Michaels may have read my status yesterday about having a naughty take away and made me pay for it with Level 2 of 30 Day Shred!"
I can just about do a full plank so have just gone full pelt at 3/4-ish planks for the plank exercises. After reading a few things on here I'm a little concerned about my wrists since I have always suffered with them ... we'll see. I did however burn 232 calories and they're the best HRM stats since I started this!

Ya there tough! How r the wrists? Thank you for asking! They're alright, I think I made a more conscience effort than I thought not to bend them wrong if you know what I mean yesterday. I did feel a twinge when I was doing some housework today so this evening I was more careful and it seems to be doing the job 0 -
