This isn't great for my weight loss I know, but I've found that it seems to help the pain. I drink well over the recommended intake of water everyday as standard, and even more so when I have a migraine. How…

30 day shred - shoulder cramp?
Hi, I've been doing the 30 day shred for 4 days now, and find that my shoulders get very uncomfortable in a number of the strength moves.
