30 day shred starting on Monday 20th Feb...any takers??

Level 2 Day 1 tonight.......starting to see where the rubber is going to meet the road.

Nice change in exercises, now instead of seeing how weak I am, I see how "uncoordinated" I am. Those "ski lunges" are just crazy.

Forced myself to do this tonight even though I battling some sort of cold onset or something.

Day 9 Level 1 done

day7 level 1

Day 2 Level 2. And I have a problem. One of my wrists can't support weight. During level one, I modified the push ups by doing them on my weights and taking the pressure off my wrist. Now in level 2 it seems every exercise has me in that position and right now, my wrist is KILLING me. Can anyone think of a way to modify the walk out push up? Help.

Level 2, Day 3
It's getting a little easier but still really tough.
At work for 16 hours tomorrow so taking it as a rest day...hope it won't be too hard when I get back on it on Friday!

day 8 level 1 done

Anyone having problems with their ankles in level 2? My right ankle is swollen and I can' figure out if I did it on the shred or by running. I took a rest day today hoping that would help.

No but my right knee started cracking a few days into level 1. I took a couple of days off then started again. My knee stopped making noises after a few more workouts. I think it got stronger. As for a swollen ankle - you should definitely take some time off until the swelling goes down, then start slowly doing only ths modified moves. Good luck!

I've completed Level 2, Day 4 - so halfway tomorrow. I've missed one day so far (dental surgery which is a decent enough reason to miss a day). I found level 2 day 1 really tough, but today was slightly easier in that I could stick with most of the regular / advanced moves.

The scale is moving a bit this week (yay) but my measurements haven't changed as much (boo) but I am wearing old size 11 jeans (woo) so all is good.

I'm finding my knees are complaining a bit on L2 so I'm modifying as needed. No injuries.

Tomorrow will be day 19 for me. Still doing level 1 and 2 back to back (been doing them that way since day 8). Level 1 is not so bad anymore. Peeked at Level 3 on Friday night. Did about 10 minutes of it. Ohhh Boy. Its tough. Not sure I am ready for that but guess I better. May just do it tomorrow after level 1 instead of level 2.. Today I was doing the warm up and I swear my baby girl did the hip rolls mimicking the girls on tv. It was hilarious!!!

Got to Level 2 Day 3 then the weather got REALLY NICE in Michigan....so we have been spending our time outdoors with exercise. If the rain comes, I will be back at this.

It is too nice out this early in March to be sweating in front of the TV.

Caraslp - I've been posting it as 'Circuit training, general'.

I'm about to go do L3 D1. I have no idea what I'm in for but with only 10 days left just want to get it done. Anyone else still around?

ETA: Anyone else find their shoulders one of their major weak spots? I'm doing beginner exercises in L3 because it's my shoulders that are giving out on me before anything else.

I log 180 calories burned. Any body think it is more let me know.

Shoulders, knees, and wrists. I figured that my weak little muscles would be sore, but I hadn't counted on joint issues.

Today was day 30 for me. I took a few days off here and there and today I only did level 1 where I usually do 1 and 3 back to back. I think I am going to keep on doing it though. I really like the way it makes me feel. I always feel like I get a good workout when I do it. Overall I have lost about 9 inches and about 12 lbs since I started it.

I have not done anything with it lately as the weather has been unseasonably warm in MI so we have been getting out for 3 mile walks every night as a family. Pushing the strollers helps the calorie burn. So far, I have logged over 25 miles walking.....which I say is a good substitute for this all things considered.
