    I'm on day 6! Think I might do round 1 a few extra day cause I'm really struggling with the push ups. I start the video with my 5lb weights but for the side squat arm raise I have to drop it down to 2lbs(cans from the cupboard) cause I just can't keep up. Makes me feel amazing though. Anyone else who reads this, you can find round 1 on YouTube to check/try it out.


    i do the same thing with cans. the 5lbs is way too heavy for the side lunges so i use 2 cans from my cupboard. glad to see someone else is doing the same thing :)

    How do you guys log your exercise for the 30DS?

    Most people log it as "Circuit training, General", but the most accurate way is with a HRM.

    Today is day 6 for me!! I modify it as much as I have to, my bust is too big to be doing those butt kicks. lol But so far so good. Everyday I can do a little more. Good luck everyone.
    Add me. :drinker:

    As a big breasted gal myself, trust me when I tell you to get yourself a heavy duty compression bra and you won't end up with two black eyes after each jumping jack. : )

    This made me scream out loud at my desk. LOL LOL LOL!

    I'm on day three :-) its a great workout. I started out not even able to do the modified pushup they show you three days in I can do 15 of them and my aim is to be able to do proper ones by the end. I will be happy with that. Im gaining weight onn it so far but not worried as apparently it will go away and leave me svelt :-)

    Im on day 3 today too! i practically rolled myself out of bed this AM. :)
  • I have and have been wanting to do it, perhaps I will join in today as well!

    I am on day 10 & have moved up to level 2.. I love this video, it is so addictive & is a great workout that will push you. I also do cardio (treadmill 20 min a day) and 20 minutes of weight lifting per day w/ it.
  • I am on week 3 of the Jillian's 30 day Shred. Week 1- Day 1 couldn't do a single push-up, but now I am got them down now.

    It definitely get easier with each week! :-)

    I started on Sunday. I don't mind doing the jumping jacks but I have large boobs as well and the jumping jacks and jump roping "hurt". :/ I def plan on going to get a "good" sports bra this weekend. Also I don't have dumb bells yet, is anyone else doing it without the dumbbells? Add me!! :)

    Moving Comfort makes a great sports bra. Lots of support. The one I bought was about $60, but well worth the price since it keeps me locked in place with no bounce!

    I'm on day 7 of level 1. I'm a bit anxious about starting Level 2 because a lot of people say it's quite a bit harder then Level 1, but I'd definitely recommend it :smile:

    I am starting level 2 tomorrow, I think I am ready now. I actually spent a couple days longer on level 1 because I didn't do it everyday and I didn't feel strong enough until today! It's fun and a good workout!

    I keep wanting to start it and losing my motivation. Maybe with a buddy, I will make it through! I'll friend you.
    PS-I've made it to Day 5 before and noticed a difference that quick, but then gave it up. Here's hoping to make it much further!

    Just got this over the weekend, but felt intimidated by it. This is a great reason to get started and stay motivated! Add me!

    How many calories do you burn doing Level 1? I just started yesterday and Jillian kicked my butt :/

    Today will be Level 2 Day 4 for me. I love it so far! It amazes me how fast I have adapted to moves that I couldn't even hope to do on the first day. I still modify as needed (especially since I switched to level 2) but I am still sweating buckets by the time I'm done!!

    Anyone can feel free to add me!! :)

    How many calories do you burn doing Level 1? I just started yesterday and Jillian kicked my butt :/

    It depends on several things. I am 165 lbs, 5'8". I burn about 280 for the 27 minutes it takes to complete Level one. At least that is what my HRM says. I swear it is MORE! Lol.
