    Oh, I'd tried 30DS before and ended up hurting my shoulder. The push ups were just too much. Maybe I was doing them wrong, I'm not sure. This time around I'm going to start by using the wall and work my way down to the floor.

    Push yourself, but don't overdo it. No need for injuries. :smile:

    I started yesterday and just finished day 2. Took some self talk to do it again today (its not pain, its just your muscles ache, like they're supposed to if you're working them) but so glad I did as today was definitely easier and I felt amazing afterwarxs! My advice is think Nike - just do it!

    I'm in as well. I wish that I'd see more guys doing the video. But I think that I'll get good results from the video and when I worked out for the first time today I was huffing and puffing. Maybe by week two I'll be able to do all of the exercises and put everything into it.

    Hi everyone! I just want to say good luck with the 30 Day Shred! I am currently on Level 2 and it is day 18 for me. This workout is WORTH it. It's hard work but the results will show. With the first level, I lost an inch in everything I had measured. DO NOT GIVE UP!! :D Every day you complete this 20 minute workout is a day closer to achieving what you want. Don't be discouraged :)

    Thinking about doing this....hope it can hold my interest for 30 days lol. Thanks for posting the links!

    Are we supposed to do this everyday or are there rest days?

    Also, do we do other things (I'm a runner...so would I give that up while I do this or is this a supplemental to my program)?

    Does this take place in lieu of strength training?

    I'm in! The timing is perfect, I was planning on starting it today as I want to add something to my running rogram.

    MtnKat: there are no days off...it's 10 days of lvl 1, 10 days of lvl 2 and 10 days of lvl 3. I'll continue my running program as well, but I don't think you'll need extra strength training. Maybe someone who has done it already could help you more, but people say it's pretty intense.

    Wow! After doing it for the first time, I must admit I didn't expect it to be so intense. Not that I thought it would be easy... I totally get the logic behind it and it makes sense... my trainer at the gym had me do those same exercises with 3 sets, and a minute rest between each. She does 2 exercises at once (upper AND lower body), and instead of resting she switches to other exercises without rest, which works your cardio.


    Anyways I'm one of the few men doing this and I'll definitely gain from doing it. Don't hesitate to add me so we can shred through this together!


    MtnKat (part 2): my suggestion would be to do the first level (they're on youtube). It will take 25 minutes and you'll know what you're in for. I'll keep doing my running program, but I don't need more strength training than this at the moment.

    Just finished Level 1 Day 1 and it was much easier than I remembered. I'm guessing with all the other workouts I'm doing I have some stamina.

    I do find that when I'm having to be on the ground then stand up and vice versa I tend to feel a little lightheaded. Any one else have an issue with this?

    Ben, thanks for all your help. I sure appreciate it. I had no idea that you went 10 days for each level. I just thought you did level 1 for 30 days, then level 2 and so on lol.

    I'll try this here in a few minutes and see how it goes. Thanks again!

    Whew. Ok. That was awesome! And my arms are shaking!

    I can see the logic behind her training....Jillian is awesome and terrible all at the same time lol.

    So...day 1 of level 1 complete. Let's see how I feel tomorrow because tonight I felt like dying :-)

    Tomorrow is my running day...not sure how I feel about 30 DS every day.
