Thanks, I like the option of sit ups and pushups. I find that the original spends a lot of time on Squats...my Thighs are not liking me right now!

You don't have to worry about killing him. The donuts will do it for you.

Awesome for starting week 3! I didn't get to it today, and we are going out tomorrow morning. Hopefully I will find the time energy tomorrow afternoon to get it done. I am back to work on the 6th so I want to get week 3 out of the way before then!
-
From the beginning I only needed to lose around 26 pounds (still looking to lose 15), and I wasn’t in very good shape when I started in February. I definitely find ‘Ripped’ both more challenging and interesting than 30 DS. Seven days are much more manageable than 10, which I found really monotonous by around day 7. People…

Week 2 Day 6 done! We are going to a friends cottage tomorrow morning, so I might take it off and start with Week 3 on Sunday.
-
I awlays add cumin and lemon when I am grilling the chicken. Peppers, onion, cheese, salsa, lettuce and tomatos. It is a fairly cheap and healthy meal!
-
I would hardly call that a rest day! And I have no advice for the tables, because mine is broken. I think I have short arms/long torso because I can barely get my butt off the ground either. I made it through week 2 day 5 today. I am REALLY hoping to see some movement on the scale tomorrow.
-
Week 2 day 4 done! I as I was doing the tables (:explode: ), my five year old came downstairs and told me that he thought my table was broken. Nice kid! Do most of you do the advanced or modified exercises? For many I try to do the advanced but switch 1/2 way through. Some (lunges with leg lifts, crows and renegades), I…
-
I agree with you on the lunges, I never feel like mine are right. Week 2 day 3 done. And I am still hating the strength part of the second circuit! I managed to do 3 tables today before I collapsed and the crow push ups are impossible! Sometimes I think those girls are robots! What are your favourite exercised of week 2? I…
-
Week 2 Day 2! I wonder if I look as sexy as Jillian and the girls when I am doing smoe of those moves.....:laugh:
-
Week 2 Day 1 DONE! Everything is a lot harder than week 1. I am really not liking the tables. My arms feel like they are too short!
-
Kudos to you for actually doing it hungover! I would have started tomorrow!
-
I was going to ask the same question, but could't figure out the wording. Yours was good! I am not sure what the "recommmended" time line is. I think I've already said that I am going to listen to my body. With level one I needed a day off adter day 2, but was able to go straight through the rest of the week. Initially I…
-
Week one done!! I think I will take tomorrow off (maybe...) before I start week 2. I am trying not to get discouraged, but when I stepped on the scale today I was up 2 lbs from last week. I know it's only week 1 and I shouldn't expect miracles but I was hoping to at least maintain my weight! :explode: On another note, how…
-
I was the same way after the first two days. I took Day 3 off and have felt much better since. I have a feeling it is going to take a turn for the worse once I start week two!
-
Today I took some photos of myself. NOT going to share them right now. I am going to try to depend less on the scale and more on the measurements and pictures. Hopefully I will see some results in the next few weeks. If there are drastic results I will post them along with some 'afters'!
-
Day 6 Level 1...ONE MORE DAY OF SIDE LUNGES!!! That is the good news. The bad news is that I previewed Level 2 and it doesn't look like a lot of fun. It just makes me more scared about levels 3 and 4.
-
I finished day 5 of level 1 today. Still hate the side lunges, might try your suggestion, hnc74 and drop the weights. I really like how you only have to do 7 days at each level. With 30DS, I was getting pretty bored of the exercises and commentary by day 6 or 7. It will be nice to do something new soon. I think I am going…
-
I got up to 450 tonight but my knees were hurting. At least if I keep it up at this rate I might lose 1/2 a pound? I found that if I counted up to 25 and down from 25 , instead of counting to 50, it was a bit less painful!
-
OK...here goes. August 12 weight and measurements: Weight: 149.4 lbs Biceps: 12 " Chest: 40 " Waist 34" Hips: 38.5" Thighs: 22.5"
-
Week one day 4 done! I really don't know how I am going to get through the other 3 levels. I am a mess when I finish this. Still too scared to preview what is coming! What are your favourite/least favourite exercisesof level 1? Mine would be: Favourite ~ Punches, deep seat with shoulder lifts, and push ups (although I am…
-
Today, I am feeling it in my calfs. After day 1, it was my back. I am hoping it will move to my core! I did 30 DS in May and I didn't lose a pound. I am hoping to have more (any) results this time!
-
I HATE THOSE SIDE LUNG THINGS!!!!! I can not get them right. I usually just do side steps with the arm raises. I don't mind the girls...were the three as coordinated with thier outfits in 30 DS?
-
I haven't done the preview yet. I find level one as intense as level 3 of the shred...I am kind of scared of what level 4 might look like!
-
Did Level 1 Day 3 today. Didn't make it yesterday, but felt good today. I find that Jillian is much less annoying that she was in 30 DS, which makes the workout even better! I think I will try to take one rest day in the middle of each level and one day between levels. other than yesterday, I am going to go on the…
-
Everything hurts tonight! I am going to try to do tomorrow morning but my muscles might not let me. Hopefully I can at least get on the elliptical for a little while. Is anyone else doing any other form of exercise to go along with the DVD?
-
I have started doing the Ripped in 30 DVD. I am only on day 2 but it feels good to be doing something. I am also working on better food choices. I an going to two to eat salad for/with most lunches and dinners until I see some movement on the scale!
-
Week 1 Day 2. I am really feeling it, mostly through my back. But is feels good to be doing something again! I am going to take and post measurements today (anything to keep me accountable!) What other JM DVD have you done? How do you feel that this one compares?
-
I will do anything right about now to lose a pound! Count me in. I might not wait until Monday though, if that is OK.
-
I love this! I don't need to lose a huge turkey (15- 20 lbs), but I am in Canada so I have to do it by early October! Count me in!
