    I did 30DS L1D1 yesterday and was bummed to wake up and have my knees HATE ME! I had to take today as a rest day already - so bummed! :-/ I hope tomorrow I can pick back up and get back into it ... I want to actually finish the 30DS this time! I've started and stopped so many times that I could've probably have done the entire DVD 3 times now if I stuck w/it haha.


    Don't mean to be negative and complain but I just wanted to vent :)

    Alright, day 3 done! I upped my weights today by 2.5 lbs too! Feeling good!
    I also ran today for added cardio 3.3 miles in 29min30sec. - a PR for me.

    Great work everyone! So far so good, no one has been slacking!! :drinker:

    Just finished L1D3 plus 30mins of strength training (FHFS challenge) Feeling UBER tired and my muscles are aching a bit but I feel good and relaxed and ready to get some nice dinner and watch TV!:bigsmile:

    Its so funny the tightness in my biceps make me feel like Ive got muscles bulging out of my skin! I feel like wonder woman or something! Obviously there's not much there...but it feels like there is! :laugh:

    Done with level 1 day 6, but somehow I forgot to do it yesterday! Don't even know how :P

    It doesn't leave me sore this time around, but when I tried to do it, like a year ago, I felt like dying. I'm clearly shaping up :P

    Day 2 Level 1 just done - I didn't think I'd be able to do it, my legs and arms were hurting so much but as I warmed up the pain went!!

    Still can not do a bicycle crunch to save my life and I always scream at her doing the lunges with the weights, but getting there :)

    Level 1 Day 3 -Completed !! :drinker:
  • I was wondering how to log in these exercises too! Thanks for the circuit training idea, that helps a lot. I was trying to log in every single exercise which just stinks!

    30 DS day 2 completed yesterday....forgot to log it! I did level 2 because it seems like it's easier on my knees for whatever reason! Good luck everyone!

    Day 4 level 1 done. I thought it would get easier. I am having a harder time every day. Out of curiosity (and because I thought I looked a little narrower) I took my measurments again. I have already lost 1/2 inch in 3 different places. Chest, upper stomach and thighs. It really does work. Now if I could just get myself to eat a bit better... Good luck all!!
  • Checking in -Day 3 of Level 1 Completed - was a little of a struggle today (the lunges) - I think the two hour roller derby practice last night made me legs a little week - I will keep pushing on :happy:

    Did day 3 after work yesterday...taking a break tonight (although I don't want to!).
    I have to take my DD shopping for prom shoes after work...if I'm home early enough I will push through it...I'm kind of loving it, not going to lie! Also might have to look into level 2...or a knee brace!

    We all rock!!!

    LOVE 30 Day Shred it's intense but not intimidating!! Hahaha... didn't realize I could sweat so much. I find shouting "youre strong!" gets me through the work out and playing my Lady Gaga/Britney Spears/Rhianna pandora station ... my poor neighbors must think I'm nuts. haha

    Level 1 Day 3. This is such a nice workout, that I actually look forward to it.

    Hope you all don't mind me joining in here. I finally found a thread that is consistently logging for the 30DS daily. I did the shred last year then followed with Ripped in 30, then 6 week/6 pack abs. Loved them all. Decided to do the shred again (need to tone up for the summer and vacation....).

    I did my Day 2 Level 1 this morning followed by the elliptical on endurance setting.

    Just finished level 1 Day 2. I finished week 2 of my C2K5 right before I did Shred, and it was a lot harder today.
  • So far I have been getting up at 6am to do my workout. This is while my husband is still home, so if any of my 3 kids needs something, he is there to help. Well today he left for work at 6 sooooo.......I haven't exercised yet today. I am going to really have to push myself to do it when he gets home from work tonight. It's so hard to have the energy in the evening.
    I keep telling myself, "I will do it tonight!" Otherwise I'm going to need a cyber a** whopping from my Shredded Hotties group!

  • Level 1 day 3 completed. I almost didn't do the shred today but I talked myself into it. Glad I did. Trying to stay on track to do the full 30 days in a row! :happy: 20751372.png

    L1 D2 done!! I'm a big girl and I hurt so bad after day 1 that I had to take a day off. I was still hurting today but pushed myself through and got through it!! I'm having a hard time sitting down and standing up because my thighs hurt so bad but it'll get better!!

    Today, I had my 4 daughters doing it with me in our livingroom. Imagine 5 girls all doing jumping jacks in one room. The house was shaking!! Looking forward to doing it again when I get off work in the morning.
  • LmDaniels - me too - L1 D4...how do you feel? I was really sore the first 3 days, but today I'm feeling good. I'm already starting to make the exercises more intense and "squeezing" harder! Last night I added Jillian's 6pack6weeks. it is 30 minutes and it was tough, even Level 1! Holy crap!

    Happy Friday and congrats to everyone for sticking it out! 20 minutes a day is all you need and that's awesome.

    Add me as a friend if you want!

    Just done day8 and its getting easier!! That must be me getting ready for level 2!! I also done ache/feel as sore each day at the beginning my calves really hurt, much better now.

    Do i get 6wk6pack next then?? I keep looking it on Amazon!

    the only thing - i do feel lazy when i read other peoples posts that i don't do anything else other than the 30DS that is enough for me! I don't know how you can do other dvd's as well!
