I can do about 12 pull ups right now. I'm trying to work my way up to 20. It's been a long slow process. Keep working at the assisted pull ups and you will eventually get stronger. The only dips I've done are tricep dips and I can do a lot of those. I need to add some regular dips to my routine.

I love this workout! Looking forward to level 3 tomorrow.

The Fast Track Detox Diet is an excellent one to try. There's only one day of a juice fast. You don't feel deprived on this diet if you do it right. You're basically just eating liver loving foods the whole time. The last time I did it I ate 5 small meals a day rather than just 3 meals and that made it very easy for me.

You have to keep working at it. It has taken me 4 1/2 yrs to finally get mine to my goal after having my last child. It takes a lot of time, cardio and a good, clean diet. Just hang in there and you'll get there. For me it was the last thing to achieve.

Yes, you more than likely need to up your weights. However, I have recently had to upgrade to her new workout Ripped in 30 because even with the upped weights I wasn't feeling it as much. It was still a good workout but I needed something a little more. It took a long time to get to that point though.

Wow, girl! You look amazing!

This is also where my body wants to carry the extra weight. After my second child I really had to work hard to get rid of it. Just stick with a good clean diet and exercising and it will eventually come off. It's just usually the last thing to go. I use to just workout a lot but that only did so much. I saw the real…

Get some free weights. These are awesome for toning your arms. Tamilee Webb had a great workout video called I Want That Body that has 2 great arms workouts. Simple work with free weights can make a huge difference. Tricep dips and kickbacks are great for the backs of your arms.

I log it as circuit training.

Lanfear. You must be a Wheel of Time fan.

I have 5 horses, 4 Arabians and my husbands old grade mare. I try to ride when I can but lately the weather has been very uncooperative. Right now I've got one that is still pretty green and needs a lot more riding than I've been giving her and a 3 year old that needs to be started soon. I ride in a dressage saddle simply…

I have felt like that before when I really had a hard workout. I have found that it depended a lot on what I ate before and if I drank enough water. Stay hydrated and besure and eat a good protein loaded meal 1-2 hours before working out. That's what helps me. I'm one of those people that cannot workout on an empty…

I'm a SAHM and have found it very easy to do workouts at home. I second the Bodyrock.tv workouts. They're hard but you can do them in a short amount of time and you WILL see results. DVDs are also great! I have several workout dvds that I love and I just alternate.

Right now mine is set to lightly active. I usually move around a lot, have kids and homeschool so I'm constantly cleaning, running up and down the stairs and all. I also live out in the country and have horses so there's always lots to do outside. The weather has been cold and dreary so I haven't done as much outside…

We are going to try and garden this year. I've done a little container gardening in the past with a tomato plant or two but never a full blown garden. We live on a farm so have plenty of room but it will be lots of work and we're learning as we go. I've already got some spinach and kale doing very well in containers and…

I log it as power yoga.

That is so AWESOME! Congrats!!! It's such a great feeling to finally get there. Just did my 100 too this morning. The last 10 were REALLY hard. Hoping to keep it up and do at least a set of 100 every other day.

Was only able to get in 3 sets today. 80, 80, 70 for a total of 230. I'm so close but I just can't get in the last 20 yet.

He is right. I've been doing the 30 Day Shred for over a year now but I have never done the 30 days straight. I started out trying that. I was really sore just starting out but and didn't want to work the same muscles the next day. I started mixing up my other workouts with 30 DS and that has worked wonderfully for me. I…

I second this. This is a great diet and teaches you how to eat clean. Great for rebooting your mind for eating better in the future. I started off my year with this diet. There's no reason to deprive yourself and starve. Just eat cleansing foods.

It's amazing how effective this is! Only did 4 sets today because my wrist was hurting from yoga yesterday. (75, 65, 70, 70 for a total of 275)

I love Tae Bo! I have the old VHS series and a couple of his newer stuff. The older advanced version is my favorite. What a full body workout!

I love Taebo! My husband bought the 6 VHS series back in the day. Never used them so I dug them out and started using it. Boy, what a workout! I use the old VHS Advanced version along with some newer DVDs I recently bought, Taebo Cardio, Taebo Extreme and Taebo Abs. I love them all and just mix them up with my other…

No, I still can't do that. I'm really feeling it today. Sunday is my normal rest day but I may need to rest today rather than doing my normal cardio today. I'll try Monday and see how far I can get but I really need to rest.

Today 60, 60, 60, 55, 60 for a total of 295. Wow, just shy of making 300. If only I could have done 5 more. All these pushups make me hungry.

That is awesome!

Love this workout! The two times I did it I nearly puked. It still kicks my butt and I still have to pause around circuit 3 (the jumping stuff always make me have to pee)and before and after the climbing mountain climbers to catch my breath .

When I do her workouts I study her video, jot down the exercises on a piece of paper, turn on some good music and go. I don't have a Gymboss timer so I just try to do the amount she does. I love Zuzanna! I don't always do her workouts because I like to use my free weights and I don't have some of the equipment she has.

Where did everyone else go? I finally had more strength tody and made progress (60, 60, 60, 55, 50). I'm feeling it now though.

I've been belly dancing for nearly a year now. Just got some DVDS and learned from them. Unfortunately, I don't have anyone local that could teach. It is so much fun, builds your self confidence and is great for loosening the body up. When I first started I thought I was never going to get it. I'm FAR from being really…
