    When you guys measure your thighs, where are you measuring? The widest part or right above the knees? I got measurements for a fitness boot camp once and they measured right above the knees. I just wondered if we are all on the same page.

    I'm all confused about where to measure what...I'm measuring the widest part of my thighs because that's the part I'm worried about

    I was confused on this as well:huh: I measured the middle at first and then I measured a little bit higher like near the pelvic area because evidently this is the biggest part of my thigh:blushing:

    I'm with Smurfette. I am measuring the biggest part of my thighs because thats where I neeed to lose.

    I also measure the biggest part of my thighs. Pelvic area.
  • Oh Lawd I'm so not looking forward to Level 2....I'm still on Level 1 Day 8 working with weights! Friday will be my last day on Level 1 and I will start Level 2 on Monday!
    You Ladies are kicking some bootay in inches lost. Keep up the drive, the dedication and Keep on Pushing!
    Have a great one!

    The first day is the hardest but day two will be easier because you will know the moves and know where to twick moves to be easier on ur knees. Good luck but know don't really need it cause u will kick *kitten*

    Did the workout for the 3rd day in a row tonight,gonna do it again less than 12hrs later in the am.:indifferent:

    I am proud I am getting better and better at the scissor jumping lunge Anita does. It's fun, I feel like a cartoon character. My heart rate is in the 170s at the end so I pause it and do crunches before the stretch.

    For the one leg burpees I jump back with 2 feet, then jump forward with one. It is tough but much safer for my knees. For the reverse squat, make sure yourbfeet are forward and your butt is engaged. If you are too weak then your knees will hurt so do the beginner. Form is everything in this DVD!

    I have completed the workout for a week now and I am getting better but it is not as difficult as it was. My challenge is that I am working out on carpet so I do focus on my form to protect my knees as a result, I am not jumping as much but I am thinking of trying to get some plywood and see if that will help me with the moves that requires any jumping. Form is so key to everything that we do it is important to make sure your toes are pointed outward when doing your squats so that you are not putting too much stress on the knees. I have a chart if you need a guide to measure I can forward to Sexycook just let her know you are interested. I am going to wait until Saturday to move on to the next circuit because I do other classes and I have found out that I need to take a day off at the gym just to fit this into my routine one night I tried to do Body Pump, Zumba and then I tried to fit KB& T’s but I was too exhausted to complete the workout effectively. I do feel stronger and I have to say I feel like inches are coming off but we will see when I get measured next Tuesday at the gym since it will be a full week from my last measurements and a full week of the circuits. You all are doing an amazing job I am so proud to be associated with this group!
  • All I can say is level 2 is crazy!

    I am thinking of buying killer buns and thighs and all you guys are motivating me to get started soon. I have one major concern though...Plz tell me if it is strong on your back. I have a weak back and I am concerned if this exercise routine will hurt it. Plz someone reply soon and let me know. Till then, do what you have been doing....so proud of those who are keeping it up!
