    hmm... i'd like to join in with you but I'm on medical restrictions . no impact exercise... no lifting, pulling, pushing over 5#s... and no overhead work. =[

    i probably won't be released until the beginning of October. Meanwhile, i guess i can live vicariously through you guys ;)

    Ah, well I may join you guys. I did the shred, started the end of June and didn't quite finish it. I did about 6 days of level 3 and then just stopped. I consistently did it about 4-5 times a week. I just did each level for 10 days and then moved up. Jillian doesn't tell you what exactly to do, but I just moved at 10 days or when you think you need more of a challenge.

    The workouts are pretty intense. I know I need more cardio and plan to get her other dvds or Leslie Sansone's walking dvds. I also walk at breaks at work.

    I know I'll be gone at least one weekend in Sept - a much needed break away from the kids - but will follow along with you guys and restart the shred. After all I didn't actually finish it this past time.

    I did notice that I feel stronger and I lost inches, but not much actual weight.

    Oh, and I log my shred workout under circuit training and use 300 calories burned. I just keep in mind that's an estimate and I may be a little under or over that actual #. No hrm here either, although I'd like one.

    I still havent gotten beyond level 1 ...so far its been a challenge enough lol.

    I figure I probably need more cardio too, but being a smoker cardio is always quite the challenge. Ive lost inches and got stronger without losing actual weight too but I got all those speeches about muscle weighing more than fat after whining about it. Now I just go by how things fit and how I feel for now.

    Don't forget that muscle burns more calories than fat. That one helps keep things straight for me. :happy:

    I'm not sure there's much else to know. Start Sept 1st. It doesn't seem like everyone is doing it everyday. I would like to try to get as close to everyday as I can, but my weekends are sometimes out of town.

    Ideally we should just be working out and changing levels together.

    I have to wait still-I ordered it from Ebay. Along with the Trouble Spots one too. If I have to do things differently, I'll modify. Hope soon.:drinker:

    Welcome!!! :drinker: I decided to try Level 1 this afternoon and I previewed the other 2 levels. It was pretty tough. Just the kick in the pants that I need right now!!! I think we're all going to see results.

    I did level one yesterday and it was definitely hard. I didn't think that it would be so hard to get through the 20 minutes. My muscles are so sore today (the good sore though). I agree that this video is going to give us all some good results.
