    Just completed day 1 level 3 yesterday! The cardio was tough - lots of jumping and adding weights to some of the previous cardio moves. I've come this far, I'm not going to quit now!!

    Today was day 2 of Level 3. It's pretty intense. Not sure my 90 yr old house can take all the shaking from jumping!!

    Day 21...day 1 of level 3...not bad! Don't get me wrong, it was definitely intense, but I liked it better than level 2! Nine days to go :o)

    Day 11 of 3DS and Day 1 of level 3 completed yesterday. Was finding that i knew the dialogue of Level 2 too well and it was putting me off the workout so moved on to Level 3 May give to Day 20 on this and then perhaps do Level 3 of Ripped in 30 to stop me getting bored.

    Anyway so far it was exhausting I cannot complete all the moves at the moment but liking the new challenge

    Just completed Level 3 Day 4. I can tell that I am in better shape as it is getting easier to complete. I can also tell I have a ways to go, as I am still doing about half Natalie moves, and half Anita. Those jumping lunges are no joke!

    I've been thinking about what to do after the 30DS, should I do something else, or do another round? I am leaning towards another round of 30DS, trying to move towards 100% Natalie moves, as well as increasing the weight. Currently I am doing the shred at 3 pound weights.

    ; Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred Level 3, Day 1--traveling pushups on knees, modified (Anita-style) sit-ups, and third circuit of weights (plank arm raises and leg lifts) done with 3 lb. rather than 5 lb., weights) but I got through it and cardio was fine (although I used 3 lb. weights on the cardio circuit that used weights, too)

    L3/D1. All I can saw is "Lawdy, Lawdy, Lawdy". Kicked my butt with all that jumping! Just gotta keep going - am 2/3's the way there! I'm seeing results too which is motivating.

    I would like to know this as well, i presume its one of her metabolism books i suppose

    Day 16 of 30 day shred done still having to do the modified pushups during the second round of the travelling ones but hoping my strength will improve here

    my thighs hate me so much!!!

    Completed D4 and I'm really having a hard time with the traveling push ups and the plank leg raises. I have decided that if I don't get better by d8 and I'm still doing modified exercises I'll do L3 for 5 more days. I'll be moving on to Ripped next month and if I keep this up....ripped is going to rip me to shreds.

    You're not alone! I'm not able to lower my WHOLE body on the traveling push ups - I noticed that only my upper body goes down. I have to work on that move a little more. I just completed Day 2 of Level 3 so there is still time to adjust my form. I just received my copy of Ripped in 30 in the mail - I plan to start it around April 14. Good luck!

    Day 1 completed unintentionally!

    Having dfficulty tonight after beginning with level 2, day 9 due to ankle problem I have, wasn't going to be helped with all the jumping and twisting that is required.. Thought to have a wee look at level 3 and delighted to say I actually completed it even with modifications at times and the use of no weights at all tonight. At least I execised for 20minutes that I thought I was going to have to miss.

    Very suprised to see how much I had improved with the butt kicks from level 1 (they are a personal hate of mine!!) Think I might have a few more to add to my list though after tonights workout, where do I begin ?..........Really do not like those scissors moves at all. The walking plank must be doing something although I feel it in my stomach as much as I do my shoulders! Do think I am going to be rather sore tomorrow though, I'm aching already as I go to bed!

    Wow is all I can say. Started level three a few days early. I'm going to switch between level's two and three. find those to be more challenging.

    Day 3, Level 3 ... my legs are KILLING me! It's all good though. Looking forward to being done with the 30DS so I can move on to Ripped in 30 (nothing like Jillian abuse).

    Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Level 3, Shred Day 3--was going to do Level 2 right afterwards but was too bushed. Hope to do it later in the day because I failed to work out at all yesterday.

    Congratulations Karlos988! :flowerforyou: So glad you feel amazing! Did you notice any difference in your strength/endurance from the time you began to now? Are your clothes fitting differently?

    You are going to inspire me to go do Level 3 today! Thanks!

    Okay, day 4, Level 3 done! Does anyone else loathe the evil scissor abs move? Especially when Jillian says you're almost done--and you're NOT--and then she says ten more but doesn't begin to count down immediately?!!!!! :laugh:

    I could def tell a differnece in my endurance and strength as time went on. At first I could barely get through the Level 1 modified excercises, but by the end I was powering through doing mostly advance moves. (except for jumping lunges, those were my Everest!) I can even tell in my daily life, just not being winded when I go for walks or going up and down my stairs.

    I took my measurements today, and I lost a total of 9.75 inches overall. I could not believe it when I added it all up. So I can definitetly tell in my clothes.

    Wow, that is amazing and inspiring, Karlos988! :drinker: I think about the inches you've lost when I don't want to do the Shred! :smile:
