    I'm on day 2 of level 2! HATE this level...but am certainly feeling yesterday's workout. I also do other tapes and run almost every day along with RI30, which I am doing 6 days. It's been 8 days and I haven't lost a lb yet! A little frustrated! Am sticking to 1200 calories, but am eating my workout calories burned too. should I be doing this? Or should I stick with the flat 1200 and not eat what i burn? Has anyone seen results after the first week? I do feel a little tighter around my butt/abs....not to mention sore!

    Same here! I just sat down with some 100 calorie muscle milk! She totally kicked my butt, I had to take a one minute break (I walked around to get my heart rate down) inbetween cardio and abs in the second circuit and right before cardio in the third circuit. Holy cow!

    I didnt do it last nite, had something to do. Will it make a difference? I started on Sat, did Sun and Mon. Will do tonite, Thursday, take Friday off, then do Sat. Should i be doing it each day, does it matter if there are days off inbetween?

    Thanks.

    Estelle, I don't think it matters. It will just take you longer to finish the program. I am just going to start today, but have been given the advice to do it on days when I don't run...so I'll be doing it just 3 days a week. I am taking Sunday's off. It'll just be my ripped in 60 instead of 30. Great job for getting started. Don't give up just because you can't do it every day. :smile:

    Just finished the first workout of week one. As much as I run, I was surprised that I gave out on the football drill. :embarassed: I did sweat and can feel it in my arms and legs already. I do have a question though. I could not do the ab exercise where you lay flat and lift your legs inches off the floor. It hurt my back. Was I doing it wrong? I wound up lifting my legs straight up and then lowered them to a point where I could feel it in my abs, but back wasn't hurting. Any suggestions?

    I believe if you feel it in your abs thats fine ,if theres certain things you cant do you can alternate it with something else..Just as long your trying your best is all that matters =]

    Today was my last workout of week 1. Tomorrow I start week 2! I'm going to take some progress pictures on the 1st and I'm hoping to see some changes! I hope everyone is doing well!

    I did workout one yesterday. I found the side plank/lifts to be pretty hard. And the pushups. But I am blaming residual soreness from Monday's workout. :D

    I plan on taking the slow path on this one. Approximately 2-3 times a week, because I am doing another challenge as well. Eventually (maybe in July)I can do the complete schedule. I might do it again today, I have limited time and need to get my workout in.

    I am feeling some back soreness. It is just continuing on from Monday I think. :)

    So I finally got myself some 8lb weights and used those this morning.....for all moves on Level 2 except the serving lunges (I think that's what she calls them) OMG I can still feel the different the heavier weights made....especially in my legs haha weird! And the good news is that I decided to not try to be superwoman and did the beginner modification for the plank cardio and I was much more successful.....still felt like I was going to die lol but I made it through without stopping so that's a plus in my book!

    Now an hour of Zumba tonight.....what have I done lol

    I hope everyone is having a good day :smile:

    this is awesome! I was just looking for more information and maybe before and after photos. I am halfway through week 1 and I don't know if i'm working out enough to actually see a difference??? 230 calories a session I read somewhere...?

    I have so much trouble with the side lung/arm raises and the bicep curl/lunges... I'm either not coordinated or not flexible or a combination of both! haha

    I will just add DON'T GIVE UP!!!! Do the beginner modifications if you need to and keep reminding yourself that it's only 3 x 6 min sets :) I never got overly sore, just sore enough :)

    I just feel the need to say it again.....

    PLANK CARDIO = TORTURE

    lol

    I'm trying to get motivated to get tortured again in the morning lol

    Totally agree with this! Also, I CANNOT do the Ab Hold either (I barely get my booty off the ground - I'm talking millimeters). I'd love to join this group - I've done RI30 off and on for several months but never made it past week 2. I just completed week 2 and am ready to try week 3 tomorrow morning. I hear there's more of the Ab Hold - oh well!

    Oh no! Not more of the ab hold :( I've already had to substitute another exercise for that one because my arms don't reach the ground lol
