I started in June, but had to take a break due to injuring my knee.
I'm back on it now! :bigsmile: I've just done level 2, day 5. I know I'm in between months, but would love to join this thread and see how everyones getting on if ok? :flowerforyou:0 -
Well I will be putting my measurements up, so of course you can xx0
-
30DS is really hard on my knee... last time I managed 5 days before I had to stop I do want to try again, but not too sure....0
-
Yeah it is really hard on the knees. I'm making myself do those knee exercises loads before I start and my knees still kill after! Not sure if there's anything we can do about it, maybe we should be wearing supports?0
-
Well I'm not starting for a couple of days, so think it over, because having motivation is whats going to make this doable heh :happy:0
-
I'm on day three today, and have just realised that I didnt measure myself when I started. I'll have to do that when I get home tonight. BTW - are you supposed to do the 30DS every day or every other day? I have heard conflicting reports and wondered what everyone else thought.0
-
Hey I am about to start the 30DS - I'm a little bit terrified to be honest!! How heavy are the weights you use or if you don't have the weights what do you use as a substitute?0
-
I've sort-of started 30DS. Only twice in July so far but ache for 2 days after so can't do every day but hoping that;ll ease off and I'll be able to up it to every day soon.0
-
i did day one level one today with my daughter, found it hard going but felt really good afterwards. feeling very motivated to keep at it for the full 30 days. be good to hear how others are getting on0
-
day 2 of the 30 day shred done and i'm feeling really good even though my legs ache that much i can hardly get down the stairs lol :laugh:0
-
I'm on this feel free to add me0
-
I'm planning to start on Monday, or as soon as the weights I ordered from Sports Direct actually turn up.... Thinking it looks pretty hard! I know I'm going to struggle - at the moment I can't physically do one press up, let alone a minute's worth or whatever it is. It's not that I don't have the motivation to do them, just I physically don't have enough arm strength to push myself up off the floor! Soo yeah, this is not going to be easy!0
-
day 3 of level 1 done today and the first set of cardio was a killer as i already ached so much but i kept going and it became easier. dont ache at all now and feeling very proud of myself. :happy:0
-
So turns out the weights have arrived and got left at my neighbour's house, so I have no excuse not to start it anymore... thinking that'll be tomorrow morning's plan :P have already agreed to go for a run with my housemate this evening and I don't think I could handle both haha.0
-
So how is everyone's shred going??0
-
i did day 5 yesterday, its a tough 20 minutes and leaves me sweating like a sweaty thing but i'm determined to try to do all 30 days in a row. i'm going to do a 10, 20 and 30 day weigh in and really looking forward to seeing some results of my diet / exercise combo0
-
Jumping in i'm on day 3 tonight agree on the knees, they didn't hurt this much last time i started it but I was running then too so maybe the running had strengthened them?0
-
Day 3 done! Should be able to do tonight before I go out and then hopefully in the morning. Rest day Sunday then back on Monday,
Don't ache anywhere near as much today but kind of ignored her stretches and did my own as I just don't find her's enough, also walked to the shop twice after i'd done it so maybe that loosened my legs up a bit.
Good luck everyone!0 -
I did day 6 this morning, yay for managing 6 days in a row! I even managed some of the press-ups on my feet instead of knees today. Only about 3 mind you, but it's still an improvement :laugh:
I'm off to stay with the boyfriend for the weekend and not bothering to take any gym clothes with me so it will be at least 1 if not 2 rest days for me now, depending on which day I come home.
I was wondering though, do you count day of shred as the number of days you've actually done the workout, or do you count rest days as days of shred so you finish the dvd in 30 days??0 -
" I think" its number of days you've done the workout.
My reason for the rest day on Sunday is that i will more than likely be extremely hung over! Its my OH birthday Saturday along with a family party for our engagement.0 -
Ooo congrats! Hope you have a lovely time!0

did my usual weigh in on friday (after 7 days on the shred) and have lost 3lbs,my bra straps i now have to fasten 1 notch in and my work clothes are getting loose - today is day 10 on level one so tomorrow i'll be starting level 2. i'm excited and scared at the same time but the results are showing. i still hate jumping jacks though lol0
-
Hi, I've just seen this thread. I'm currently on day 4 of level 2 & it does get easier.0
-
I had 2 days off over the weekend and finally found the motivation to do it again today - which makes day 7 for me. Seriously, those 2 days off were amazing, it was so good to start the workout this evening with recovered muscles that didn't complain at every single exercise before I even started it! And I even managed half of each set of press-ups from my feet before wimping out and going back to my knees.
Also the boyfriend said on Friday that he could see a noticeable difference in my stomach looking flatter and more toned after just 6 days... so it obviously is achieving something!! So feeling much more positive about it now0 -
Ladies I want to say I am proud of you all because I gave up after day 3! I just couldnt handle Jillian, I find her rather annoying. So I run now instead, head phones in and turned up to the max.
Keep at it ladies!0 -
I did day 6 this morning ( i had two days off over the weekend but i ran instead) and its definitely getting easier!
I've also lost an inch off both my hips and waist so its a good start!
:happy:0 -
I've only just started (on day 4) and still finding it hard, I think I need to invest in a better sports bra as I seem to find it hard to do the jumping jacks and the "jump rope" as I'm not properly supported .0
