It really isn't!! Lol. Took me to the 8th day to turn into a level 3 robot...very stressful on the body but freaking loved it. Sweat poured off me, recommend a fan on you for sure! Shed so much I think I lost a layer of skin!

Hi all! Liking this post. I am on day 4 of level one and hope that other new starters are lurking. It's been great to read your posts and see your pictures - although you've made me worry about the jump to level 2! I have no core strength at all so planks are going to kill me

Day 5 of level one done, after a little run/walk in the woods. Bicycle crunches are getting harder, which means that my technique is improving, hurrah!
I use 2.3kg weights for most of the moves but 4.5kg for back and biceps. Feel the burn!

Those bicycle crunches are a killer! Feels good to achieve it though right?? think I need to do them daily, I imagine my stomach muscles will love me for it! I use 3kg weights, so used to them now that I'll probably start on higher ones soon just for a couple of exercises, the 3kg are still great challengers especially to box with!

Hi Lauren
I don't box with any weight ATM... Is that level 2 and up? The shoulder press kills me at 2.3 soi imagine your shoulders and neck are really toned. That's what I want! Congratulations on finishing. I read your post in the body magic thread- hope your knee is on the mend!

Level 3 is the dumbbell boxing. I struggled with it even on day 30! It definitely works! My shoulders are so toned now its amazing =) looking forward to getting back into some workouts next week. Got a house move to get through first!
Thank you...knees are still stiff think they're slightly better now or I'm just used to it now! =)

Day 7 and my shoulders are burning! I know it's doing me good and I feel elated afterwards but now I'm taking ibuprofen. This is only level one? Eek!

I groan! Although it's hurting more as time goes on as I've upped my weights. What size are you using?

I use 1.13kg ones, what about you? I feel like my legs have worked out but not my belly and upper body. Probably did it wrong?

I use 2.3 for shoulders and 4.5 for biceps/rows/flies... However I realise that these may be about too heavy for stage 2.
The effect is cumulative so hurting is going to come, don't worry about that! I have watched a few YouTube videos on how to do bicycle crunches correctly etc. Now it kills me!

Day 8 and I can see a change in my shoulders - and perhaps tummy, not sure about that as my abs are covered with so much fat! I really enjoyed it today. I go find her comments hypnotic

I really wanna start this and finish it! I've tried before and fail but now i'm nearly at my goal weight maybe it will work better now.....only thing stopping me is I live in a flat and the guy underneath is a little crazy and shouts if there is any 'banging'
Can you go down and explain you'd like to exercise for 20 mins and ask him what times would suit him best? Perhaps he is out a certain time each day and you can do it then
