    Aaarrrggghhh - I didn't do it today! I am so sore from yesterdays efforts - at bootcamp we did this thing called the 300 (10 exercises times 30 repetitions and then we did it all again so it should have been called the 600) then I did the shred when I got home and did the hard version not the modified version. My arms and legs and tummy and bum are sore. Plus we had a funeral this morning to go to. Oh well, I've got bootcamp again tomorrow then I'll do the shred again - if I'm really brave I'll do it twice!! Mental really :ohwell:

    Hope you're not so sore today Werglum :)

    Out of the 22 days of doing the shred so far, last night was my most unispired night :( I really didn't want to be doing it and I didn't get the usual buzz after. I don't think my results are going to be that great after I finish next Friday. Feeling a bit down about the whole thing to be honest.

    I think I might be getting used to being sore all the time. I did Level 3 for the first time today and it wasn't as hard as I was anticipating. Quite a few of the exercises are things we have been doing at bootcamp anyway. I cannot for the life of me do a situp though, not event the modified version so I suppose I'll just do crunches for that bit. I did my measurements and weight yesterday as it was the last day of level 2 and I am down 25cm and 1.9kg! The most impressive measurement is my waist which has gone down by 7.5cm.

    Those results are amazing Werglum!

    Did L2D3 tonight, it's definitely a step up from level 1. I've upped my weights to 3kg for the first two circuits (going back to 2kg weights for the third - I find the V raises really hard). I'm dying by the end, but that's good!

    Level 2 Day 4 - starting to see good results already, I've lost 4cm around my waist in the last 2 weeks.

    It's definitely the motivation I need!

    Level 2 does amazing things to the waist line!! I'm on Level 3 now and I've lost 8cm off my waist - I think it is because of Level 2!! Level 3 is doing nice things to my shoulders :happy:

    Decided the 30 day Shred is not for me. I understand what Jillian is trying to achieve with cardio and strength exercises mixed together in a fast hard workout. As I already do cardio with the treadmill and bike I really only want to improve strength. I feel it would be a better benefit for me to concentrate on each exercise and do it at a slower pace and do it correctly.

    I'm still chugging away on level 2 3 times a week.

    I'm on D2 lvl 2 today. I think I'm already seeing a difference. I took a before pic and measurements and I'm doing a halfway measure so I will post pics and stats sometime on the weekend.

    I only do it 5 days a week. Your body needs rest so it can build muscle properly :)

    Also you can watch the levels on youtube instead of paying for the dvd ;)

    I start level 3 tonight ... 10 more days to go, better find something to do next :)

    ripped in 30 is great, I moved on to that after 30DS. Just as hard, actually, truth told, harder!! hehe if that is possible. Cto5k is an awesome running program to if your keen.

    New to the shredding L1D2
    I have found it to be very basic exercise, but definatly not easy when you are bigger and not fit at all!!
    I think it is a great tool to get you back in the exercise game seeing as the workouts are only 20mins'ish, feel like i have accomplished some exercise to add to my MFP, not to mention calories, yuss!
    Can anyone tell me what they enter for exercise for Level one?? I have just been adding it as jogging, but some of it is strength as well....
    Am already sore as, but will continue it as im not too into the gym, and outdoor walking in crap weather is not an option as i am pretty much a single mum of 15wko twins.

    I think its a good starting point anyway, better than not doing anything at all!!

    GL with your shredding people!!
