i took a day off because...help!

Drink lots of water today while resting, make sure you're getting enough vitamins, minerals and protein. I suggest making sure someone is with you when you try again, just in case. It could be a # of things.

If you don't have heart or blood pressure problems, I'd also suggest taking some L-Arginine 30 mins before the workout. It will enlarge blood vessels and capillaries to promote circulation and helps blood bring more nutrients to muscle and tissue, especially during exercise. I take this when I have headaches, along with ibuprofen and it helps alot. But please, regardless of what you decide to do, make sure someone is with you in case you need a hand!

I am doing 30 ds and i have sucessfully completed 15 days. Yesterday was sixteen and i had to stop near the last circuit round. Ever since i started level two i get these really weird headaches. But yesterday it came in one big wave..it started at the back right part of my head and was extremely sharp..all the way to the right side of my forehead. I was in so much pain i started crying. Then through out the day that part of my head was extremely sensitive..almost bruised feeling. I took the day off today to rest my body..hoping thatll do the trick. I feel completely guilty about skipping today but im almost scared to do it and have it happen again. Could it possibly be dehydration?? I usually always have my breakfast and drink a glass of water and wait an hour before workout so it sets in..but yesterday i only waited fifteen minutes because i was in a rush. Does dehydration hurt that bad?! Help!

Go to your doctor. The way you explain it almost sounds as though you have had a leakage of blood or something.

Seriously, go to your doctor because a sharp pain like that that makes you cry should not occur.

Hope all is okay and in answer to your question, no, dehydration would not hurt that bad, with dehydration you would be more likely to feel as if you are going to swoon and faint.

This!

If you have insurance, go to the doctor.

If you don't, figure out a way to get some medical advice. Posting on a weight loss forum is not the best route here.

That said, drinking water throughout your workout AND eating more may help. Decrease your workout intensity perhaps. Pain means STOP especially if it doens't go away in a few minutes.

Please be careful.

i have had to stop for two days because of the toll it's taking on my knees. i don't know what the problem is but i've stopped all of my extra fun stuff (biking, walking, etc.) until i'm through with jillian. i'm stretching and i'm not overextending so i don't know what the issue is. we only have two days left of it and i can't wait to be done.

on level 3, there is this move, i think it's in circuit one.... you are planking and you have to do these awkward sort of jumps (knee to chest) then you get up and do these sumo squat moves where you're jumping and barely lifting your feet off of the floor... eh, i don't know what they're called cause i'm usually already cussing her out and i can't hear what she's saying.... but coming up from plank to standing, each and every day, i get a HUGE headache. i've gotten to where i will slowly lift my body, head first, one leg, then the other, just to deal with the overwhelming ache that overcomes me. it's like headbanging for an hour and a half.... feels like all of the blood is rushing to the front of my head and i'm gonna fall over... it always makes me feel icky. i've tried to modify everything about that circuit but i haven't found a solution yet.

i don't know what causes mine but you're not alone on having weird things happen to you.

I would see your Doctor. Most likely it's nothing serious but go get it checked out so you can put your mind at ease. Your health is top priority! 30DS will still be there when you're feeling well again. Until then...make a Doctors appoint asap and be kind to your body and rest:flowerforyou:

I had to take two days off because I was having seriously disturbed sleep. I completed my shred in 30 consecutive days then on day 31 I did a full 7 circuits of banish fat boost metabolism. That night and the following nights sleep was awful. I would jerk awake between 10-15 Times per night, leaving me seriously exhausted the following day. My heart felt like it was racing, almost like I was anxious or scared when I wasn't. I have no reason to feel anxious and I have never had any anxiety problems in my life. I can only assume this was caused by me overdoing it, and stupidity thinking I could do 31+ days exercise without any rest. Two days later im feeling better but lesson learnt the hard way! Rest is very important!!! Another example of the shred doing strange things to you!

I was getting headaches & dizziness while working out as well before & I was exhausted so I finally started upping my calories b/c I think my body was so hungry b/c of all of the working out & eating too few calories....I gave myself a few days off from exercising & upped my calories & when I started back up again I felt so much better w/way more energy & no headaches or dizzy spells...HTH!! Just be careful, give yourself a couple of days of rest & run your numbers on this site to make sure you are eating enough!!
