I'm on day 3 level 2...I like level 2 sooo much better than 1...keep at it!0

I just moved on to level 2 yesterday, today half way though i put my back out!
I struggled on through but could not do the plank jacks or the last 2 abb excersises.
I just reverted back to moves from level one that where similar that didn't hurt.
Now though i am in so much pain0 -

I had back surgery a few months ago so I do jump n jacks in place of the plank jacks.. pretty much modify a lot but at least I am moving... I actually do a ton of her ab moves when I can not do the others. it's working for me hope you back is better tomorrow0 -
Where can you find level two online.0

I just did my first day of it!! It was definitely intense! I kept yelling that I hated her! LOL. Question though, how do you ladies input it into your exercise for MFP? I'm confused as to what I should put down...0

I'm halfway through (did L2 day 6 yesterday) and took my measurements last night:
Arms: no loss - boo!
Waist: -1 inch
Hips: -1,5 inches
Thighs: -1 inch
I took pictures as well and now I wish I'd measured the top of my thighs as well as the pictures show a MASSIVE difference there. Bring on level 3 - can't wait to see my final measurements!0 -

That's awesome Fontinathefox! Great work.
I just did day 2 level 3 this morning...whew! What a great workout, my thighs are KILLING me. I can do the first walking planks (elbows to hands) on my toes, then the 2nd set I have to do most of them on my knees. But I shall push through it and make it to the end! Only 8 days left0 -

Well done!!!
Just done Day 5 of level 1 on what was meant to be one of my Zumba days. It's oddly addicting doing the shred though. So far the only change is I'm 1lb up.0 -
Woo Hoo! That's fabulous gr8pillock!
I've been off the rails for the last few days with a pulled hip flexor, but I'm back in the game today. Since I missed 3 days of the shred I'm adding 3 on to the end of my month now.
That means that today is day 9 for me on Level 1 (hoping I haven't lost all my stamina!) I still haven't seen a drop in weight or inches, but I am noticing that my core seems stronger, and my calves are more defined. I'm thinking of upping my handweights if I continue to gain stamina, but I'm a little wary since everyone is saying that Level 2 is so butt-kickingly-scary.0 -
Oh -- BTW -- for anyone struggling with soreness/stiffness (which I'm assuming is everyone here) -- I HIGHLY recommed doing some gentle yoga to supplement the shred.
For my first week I was doing 20 minutes of beginner's yoga with a podcast every morning, and then doing the shred when I got home from work. Then I got lazy about doing the yoga, and I'm pretty sure that's why I ended up pulling my hip.
This is the podcast that I use. It's free, she explains all the poses she takes you through, and it's simple enough that I can get through it in the morning before I've had my coffee.

I am doing it with other workouts, once or twice a week.0

Just finished day 3! I'm noticing changes in my legs. I also have gained one pound. Why have so many of us initially gained weight before losing with this?0
-
Ok...you have all talked me into it. I've considered this program for long enough. I start tonight!! I'll be sure to take measurements and pics too.0

For those who have finished the program or further along, did you initially feel that your body wasn't changing?0

I am on day 6 now, I took a day break as well, as my calf muscles just decided to give up - it was so painful even to walk for a day, talk about being over-eager with exercise, hah! I feel I need 6 days + 1 day break with this, haven't seen level 2 yet but I heard it'll be a tough nut to crack. As for weights - I don't feel strong enough, so I am mostly doing it without weights. Perhaps adding weights when level 2 comes. Haven't noticed any changes yet, but I have a lot to shed. I generally feel stronger, happier, and pleased with myself that I'm up for the challenge!0

I am on day 22 of the 30DS and haven't really gotten the results I was hoping for. I wasn't losing any lbs so I took measurements and lost about 2" all over. I have had people tell me I look like I've lost weight, but I'm not sure where! I started incorporating cardio along with Jillian, any other suggestions for making this more successful?0

So I bought a heart rate monitor and wow! I had logged this under general circuit training and around 200 calories when in actuality the HRM says I burned 440!0
