i cant do a pushup for the life of me so i usually do knee pushups or just planks. i figure that will at least strengthen my arms....
also when i get tired like the 3rd go around with high knees its like impossible so i end up just jogging..... instead of completely giving up...

and i cant figure out how that goes that roll thing they do....during stretching


also does anyone else get side stitches??

    I usually take a break for 90 secs instead of 30 and I have more endurance to complete the entire drill.

    When you take a break do you pause the DVD or just join in when you get your breath back?

    Thanks

    When I first started I couldn't do not one push up and am now up to 10 push ups. You just have to keep trying, eventually you can end up doing them...
