Thread: 30 day Shred

I have done level 1 twice so far, Monday night and Tuesday morning. I also played tennis last night for an hour. When I woke up this morning I was in so much pain and so stiff that I couldn't do it. But I really want to.

I am going to try and do it tonight and then do a brisk walk tomorrow and friday maybe instead as I am going away for the weekend and I don't want to be in agony. Although, if I feel better tomorrow after exercising tonight maybe I'll just plough on with it.

I really want to see results I already feel a bit firmer

I had a horrific week last week but Im back on track today, just did day 6 of level 1. I'm mad at myself for missing a full week although Ive managed not to gain any weight.

Can I join?? I was very excited reading this and ordered DVD last week and it's finally arrived - so I'm starting tonight once kids in bed!

I used to do 30mins 5 days a week before having my third little one - Davina DVD's - and got to realky close to target weight and a good shape but haven't been able to get back into the habit, have a stone to lose and she's nearly 2!

This sounds tough but the forum will help keep me on track.

I finally got round to do this dvd can see why its only 20 mins lol but do feel so much better for having done it. Good luck Lovehatecarbs let us know how you get on

i am having terrible probs with my knees. i am stopping the shred dvd whilst i am doing the C25K and just using my cross trainer in the evenings for a while until i make my knees stronger.

Finally got round to starting this today-lol. It was tough, especially the lunges bit, but not too terrible, although this is because I don't have any weights (well I do, but they are in storage in Carlisle whilst I am in Gibraltar, so they're no good to me there!) and so used tins of beans-pmsl-they each weigh less than I lb!! What can I use instead of dumbells that i can hold that weighs about 3lbs???

Hi i started yesterday and did level 1, im trying to gear myself into doing day 2... gym kits on so thats a start lol.
I also have the biggest loser on the wii so do 40min on that boy is that a killer but just when i feel like giving in Bob gives me a word of encouragement!
Here i go day 2 level 1 good luck everyone x

Im the same - going for day 7 of level 1, it's over quite quickly when I start but just motivating myself is difficult!

well done for having a gym kit I normally find myself in a sports bra and pj shorts haha.

I've heard a few people having problems with their knees, thats an area I have no problems. However when I do the squats with the weight lift on the 1st strength circuit of level one my shoulders click everytime I lift the weights..

Just back from weekend away - going to start at day 1 level 1 again tomorrow morning - no excuses

Aw just stick at it!
I think I'm starting to find level 1 easy (except for the pushups obviously!!!) , I'm not sore at all when I wake up and I'm hardly even out of breath on the cardio.

Did first day today level 1 - survived..... Just!!! Abs and cardio not too bad bud strength very very tough couldn't do all the reps!

Have done day 2 level 1 today - didn't feel like it but made myself. I so ache from yesterday and now I'm going to ache on top of it - what about recovery time???

I did day 1 level 1 again yesterday, day 2 tonight. Feel not too bad so far but I bet I'm sore tomorrow. I find it really hard to do the push ups though as my wrist is still weak from breaking it 5 months ago. I just have to try and to it as best I can. Hopefully this will help strengthen it

Just done day 2 level 1, I broke my wrist last march and Im struggling with the press ups hoping that it will help strenthen it.

I just did day 8 of level one, definately prefer doing it in the morning, now I don't have to dread doing it tonight!

Really not looking forward to moving to level 2 -feel like I shouldn't since I STILL can't do the pressups haha but I can do everything else now.
