*HELP* 30 Day Shred

Girl, I'm on day 2 of level 1 and my arms are jello. I'll tell ya, I don't make it thru every single exercise. I have to stop and catch my breath some, but I think I did a little better today than I did yesterday.
Let's not give up (and trust me I think about it during my workout). We can do it!!

Today was my last day on level one and the lateral lunges with the shoulder rise still kills me every time. As well as jump roping and then right into jumping jacks.. and honestly the forward lunge too!! I'm going to do two extra days of level one and then start fresh on level 2 on Monday with my mom!

i'm on level 3 day 1 and its still really hard for me! of course i can definitely tell a difference in my shoulder and ab strength! level 2 was the worst level for me...really gets you sweating! don't give up just do what you can to the best of your abilities! its all about pushing yourself if you dont you wont get any better! i think the whole point of the program is for it not to get easier, haha

I'm on the last few days of level 2. This level has definately challenged me...looking foward to level 3!

i'm on day 4 & i'm actually feeling pretty good

Day 7 and it's getting better, I exercised the pain away!! seriously, it does get better, it's never going to be easy because that's the whole point of it, to make such a difference to your body in such a short period of time it kinda has to kick your butt. But your stamina will increase very soon and really does get better, keep going :-) we can do this!!!!!! :happy:

I think its more work than the elliptical because of the different circuits Jillian have us doing....jumping jacks, abs then etc.....its only 20mins so I guess the way we are huffing, puffing and sweating is what is needed in a 30 day 20 min. Day workout.....You can do it just keep trying and if ya need to break........PRESS PAUSE.....get a breather, then go get em

the first week was the toughest I was sore and out of breath. I'm on level 2 day 20 and wish I could say it's easy now, but it's not! I'm no longer sore but still sweating and out of breath by the end. It's a really good work out!

I've started again after trying it for a few days and stopping a month or so again. Just finished day 4 level 1 and am definitely feeling less like vomiting than day 1. Still hate the lateral lunges with arm raises though. I like the 2nd set in level 1 the best, although it could just be as I know its nearly over comparatively!

Keep at it, it will get better!

I finished the shred last year and found that level one, for me at least, was the hardest one. Level 2 and 3 weren't as bad. Keep at it and perhaps just do it once a day. Your body needs to rest

My dvd has come through the post.... and i think i'll be starting on Monday!! excited! :bigsmile: and dreading it little bit.. :ohwell: as long as it works!! :happy:

this is my 2nd time doing the shred, 1st time i did it i was in serious pain with my muscles and so out of breath but by day 5 muscle pain stopped and i found it got easier, level 2 is def alot harder!! im currently alternating between 1 day 30DS and then 1 day Banish Fat, Boost metabalism (another of jillians) and so on, and altho ive found level 1 alot easier this time round im still aching all over! i wouldnt do it twice a day tho, i eneded up injuring my back 1st time around and straining my ankles and they would swell and couldnt exercise for a week. measure ur inches and body fat % 1st couple of weeks of doing the shred i was losing 2lbs per week 1'' from my belly, hips and each thigh and i was losing around 2-3% body fat a week!

I have 30 day shred, ripped in 30, and extreme shred & shed. The reviews I read say you will lose inches and not many lbs! I want to get lbs off too
