I've had knee pain in the begining both times of doing the Shred. It eventually went away for me though. Both times were after long absences of hard work-outs (post baby.) If you already work-out on a regular basis it may not bother you much.

My results are at the top of this page. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/272924-the-ultimate-before-and-after-30-day-shred-thread I mainly did the Shred 4-5 times a week. When I took a day off I wouldn't count it in the 30 days so I believe it took me around 40 days to do all 3 levels for 10 days at a time. I would…

It's an amazing workout for only 27 minutes! I received wonderful results from the shred and then Ripped in 30. I would post my pictures if I remembered how to do it...

18 more lb to go? You look great where your at.

Thanks everyone!

I have the Polar FT7. The chest strap is very comfortable...you'll hardly know it's there.

Not one single suggestion?

Now I see that you already did that! There's a huge difference in your ab definition. You have me jealous:)

I already have:) I got throught that and the first 2 weeks of Ripped with no problem. Maybe I'm just tired today!

Hi all...I just found this thread. I have been doing Ripped and started Week 3 today. Is it just me or is it ridiculously hard? I couldn't even do the move where your laying on your side and you lift from your shoulder. It felt so unnatural! I normally burn at least 220 calories and only got 173 out of this work out(

I just started week 3 today. I'm not happy with it at all. I only burned 174 calories because the moves are so advanced I couldn't do them. I have been able to follow most of the advanced moves in every other level including the Shred. I think she went a little nutty with this one! I think I'll do week 2 twice and then go…

You have to resize them before posting...

Watching...I'm hoping you post some pics. Congratulations, and I hope you have a speedy recovery:)

I ended up scoring a great deal on Ebay! I won a new Polar FT7 for $67 shipped:) Can't wait to try it out!

Thank you everyone! It seems everyone agrees that Polar is a great brand to buy. I'm going to check them out.

Where is it worn on your body?

I also had knee pain, but it was because I was working out barefoot:( I know...real dumb, huh? Once I started wearing my shoes it went away.

You look fantastic!

I started Ripped yesterday...by late night my body ached. I knew I was going to be sore. When I woke it was mainly my upper legs that were sore. Sundays is usually rest for me so I will be back at it tomorrow.

Thanks! Is ripped pretty challenging? I have also considered C25K...

I would add walking or swimming 3-4 days, but nothing too heavy.

My allowance is 1370, but I pretty much eat my excercise calories so between 1500-1600.

Thank you, it did! It was the whole %20 thing with the space.

Woohoo, I finally figured it out. I wish it would let me edit my original post:(

Haha... this is lots of fun. Now they're too big and you can't see the after. Let me resize them!

Another try... [img]http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb223/sarah120906/weight loss/frontview.jpg[/img] [img]http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb223/sarah120906/weight loss/backview.jpg[/img] [img]http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb223/sarah120906/weight loss/sideview.jpg[/img]…

Anyone know what I could be doing wrong? I uploaded them directly from my computer to photobucket and then used the IMG code and changed IMG to lowercase. I don't understand why it says it's been moved or deleted...

Hmmm... not sure why that happend. Let me try and fix it.

Finished day 30 toay! It took me 39 days but I am so happy I got through. I'll be taking pics and measurements tomorrow AM.

Awesome job! I just finished today and will be startng ripped in 30 tomorrow.
