I'd like to do this with you all! I did it for the first time on Friday, and have been super sore ever since. I attempted to work through the sore muscles yesterday but couldn't hack it. Told myself i'd begin again on Monday so this is kind of perfect. Speaking of, anybody know how to remedy sore muscles or work through them without putting to much of a strain on them. I wanted to do it daily or at least consecutively for a few days at a time and didn't expect to get as sore as i did! Any help would be appreciated!

One thing someone told me, which I don't know why I didn't think of this. Is to do smaller moves. The BIGGEST problem I had was I'm all or nothing. I do it all the way and do it to the best of my ability. And then I cant move for the next 3 or 4 days LOL. So my biggest problem was the lunges. So I modified them and did them smaller and not as deep. That really did make the difference. I went a little bigger and deeper as I went on and it went much much better that way. Just keep that in mind.

I am on day 3 of the 30 day shred (acutally day 5 but I had to take 2 days off after day 1 bc I was so stinkin sore) I would love to join your group!

Besides the DVD, what other items are needed for the 30 day shred?

You need some hand weights (I have 3lb ones) and a mat if you are working out on a hard floor

Hi @Teri,

When I used to do the 30d Shred, I'd put down 22 minutes of circuit training, no rest.

And I'm in! 16-Apr-2012 is a great day for me to start. I've been meaning to start up again; I need to really kick-start my exercising.

I am up for starting on my 2nd round of 30 DS. It really helped me lose inches in my waist.

A group is just what I need. I made it to Day 12 last time before going on vacation. Will take measurements and weight tomorrow.
