Workout 9 was haaard, but workout 10 - I thought I was going to pass out! My heart was beating like crazy, I was panting and even considering pausing the DVD.

Moving on to phase 3 the day after tomorrow!

Workout 7 is in the bag! for the second time. Shoulders are sore, woot!

Completed workout 7 for the 2nd time. It was much better. My shoulders and hamstrings have been aching the whole week, so good :D

Also this is what the Body Revolution workout schedule is like. It's 12 weeks. You workout 6 days a week with Sunday off. Phase 1: Week 1: M: Workout 1 T: Workout 2 W: Cardio 1 Th: Workout 1 F: Workout 2 S: Cardio 1 S: REST Week 2: Same as Week 1. Week 3: M: Workout 3 T: Workout 4 W: Cardio 1 Th: Workout 3 F: Workout 4 S:…

I did the kickstart (2 workouts a day), but I'm not following the meal plan since I don't want to eat only 1200kcal, so I'm following what mpf gives me (around 1700 a day). As to results, unfortunately, the news is not good: I'm actually getting bigger in terms of inches, although I'm maintaining a deficit, so I don't know…

I think it's just this thread, and I'm the lone survivor :D Workout 8 today; I liked it much better than W7. My ankle is still bothering me, so I'm a bit worried about tomorrow's cardio, since there's a ton of jumping. Oh well, gonna have to push through.

Workout 8 was nice - much better than W7. With the exception of warrior 3 + weights: i just physically can't stretch my arms out in that position; when I was doing Insanity and during the stretch Shaun said to do a flat back with 'biceps by the ears', I couldn't do it. The problem is - I'm not losing anything; on the…

I don't like W7 at all, tons of floor work and push-ups which I loathe, heart rate is not up, didn't get an endorphin-high.

Thanks for the advice, I actually happen to have that book at home, will look into the modified push-ups!

Just completed workout 7 for the first time, and I have to say that I am disappointed. Don't know whether in the workout or myself: got a low kcal burn (269kcal), barely broke a sweat, but the problem is that I just can't do many of the moves. Wherever push-ups are involved - I just can't do them, even the modified crow…

Moving on to workouts 7 & 8 next week.

Just to keep this thread alive - I'm still going steady; Workouts 5, 6, and Cardio 2 - check!

Did Cardio 2 for the first time - quite lovely! I hate high knees so much, but the rest of the moves were fine. Rest day tomorrow.

Workout 6 - done (plus one circuit of Cardio 1)! Another great workout - so far workouts 5&6 are my favourite ones; all those single leg squats and lunges, sooo nice! Hopefully Cardio 2 is going to be fun!

Workout 5 - brutal, but oh so great! Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings!

Substituted Killer Buns & Thighs for Cardio 1; wow, those step-ups to backward lunges with a 9 lb dumbbell in each hand nearly killed me! Moving on to Phase 2 tomorrow, but I don't see any results, though, my pants even feel tighter than before.

One more day of Cardio 1 for me, and I'm moving on to Phase 2 as I want to be done with Body Revolution by the end of May.

I personally LOVE Quest protein bars, I could live on them :D

Rest day for me, but I did Extreme Shed & Shred Level 1 this morning. I'm moving my rest days to Mondays, though.

Week 2 - check (Well, it's Week 3 according to the plan, actually, since I only did one week of workouts 1&2)! Starting to get a bit bored with the cardio DVD.

Workouts 3 & 4 - check! I really like both (and I do some moves with two dumbbells in each hand), but I have no abs strength at all, so hollow man and squirms are a nightmare! + went on a bike ride for an hour today. How is everyone else doing?

Cardio 1 - check! Got a nice burn (and legs still sore from yesterday), used 2.2lb dumbbells for the first five moves, arms are feeling it a bit! Might go for a jog in the evening, but I think I'm getting shin splints :(

Workout 4 - done! This was tougher, but great!

Day 8 - check. Did Workout 3 and two circuits of Cardio 1.

Day 6 - check. Cardio 1 + a 30-minute bike ride! I think I'm gonna do Killer Buns & Thighs Level 2 tomorrow (it still manages to get my @ss sore), and, weather permitting, do a jog.

Day 5 - check! No cardio for me today, though.

Day 4 - check! Workout 1 + Cardio 1. I'm thinking of moving on to Workouts 3 & 4 next week, though. And I wish she would have included more Cardio workouts rather than just one per phase

Did Day 3 this morning, that is Cardio 1. Also did Extreme Shed & Shred Level 1. Went on a 20-minute jog in the evening as well. Day 4 tomorrow - bring it on!

Day 2 - done. Did Workout 2 + two circuits of Cardio 1. 52 minutes, 491kcal burned. I really need to get heavier weights! However, I'm not going to follow the meal plan; there's no way I'm starving myself on 1200kcal. I'm hoping the workouts will get more challenging.
