30 day Shred

[Surfhunny]

I kept getting confused so I've started again and made a chart so I can see exactly where I'm up to. Extra stretching afterwards won't do any harm at all I'm sure. I was surprised by how little stretching there was but my muscles have been okay since the first time I did it.

Hi Surf
I was amazed too by how little I felt the after effects but I am adding a little extra as a caution plus I do like a good yoga type stretch!

going for a power walk in a min and then going for the shred......:sigh:

Back today after mini break away. About to do day 27

Day 3 level 2 done this morning! I found the planks a little easier and I think I'm ready for heavier weights. Problem is, the Argos near me and the sports shop have both sold out of dumbells believe it or not, so I shall have to keep improvising with what I have in my cupboards for now!

My tummy is really starting to feel and look toned. I felt it when I was in bed last night and I noticed it felt rock hard. My belly has always been my worst part. It is really big and flabby. This is the most toned it's ever been and I feel great about it.

Weigh-in this evening. Hoping the scales are better than last week (4lb gain).

Good luck other shredders!

where are you hurting the most afterwards ? for me it's the lower front thighs, I have stairs all over in my house and I just couldn't go up, not even speaking about getting down....Abs don't hurt at all.....

Hi all
I am getting confused as to which 30 day shred I am on!

Anyway. What I am doing is adding a 10 minute stretch to the shred and this gives muscles plenty of stretch time to recover. I just don't think there is enough stretch time on the dvd.

anyone have any thoughts?

I don't think there are enough stretches either. I normally end up doing more that I learned at curves....unless I an really pushed for time

omg exactly the same as me! I did day 1 on Thursday - woke up Friday morning and couldn't blummin move!! I had to go on all fours up the stairs And coming down I must have looked like a 90 year old woman I was so slow, with each step accompanied by "Ooow, ouch, s**t!" I thought I was quite fit these days, obviously not lol Couldn't even attempt day 2 til this morning hopefully I won't wake up tomorrow in agony cos I really want to do the whole 30 days and get rid of this same 2lbs I keep losing and putting back on again over and over

My legs aren't too bad.. Its my arms that ache the most..off to do day 2 in a minute!

 

[Illa]

Day 3 done my arms are ok I think it's because of carrying my kids in a scarf for soooo long they are pretty strong...although not toned. Let's see if my legs feel better today, I'm of for a bike ride, i so don't want to do this (but kids want to )

Shred done for the day. im going to watch a bit of tele and then go and do the old dvd i used to do, thats 45 minutes hard circuit training, with no jumping jacks . so along with the shred and the walk to my job i have on a Tuesday (last night tonight) I think i would have made up for not doing the shred last night.

Im so close to seeing an 11 at the beginning of the scales i just want to see them now and get the kick I need

 

[notsoskinnymarge]

Did level 3, then level 1
It amazing how quickly you forget some of the moves of the other levels . I might add in another level every other day, so keep my mind active too

 

[eatwell]

Going for a walk then day 7 of level 1. Think I may move up to level 2 tomorrow or is it better to do the full10 days of each level?

 

[mum2c&d]

Just done level 3 day 9, last day tomorrow. Still find it tough, do all the advanced moves but feel so much fitter and my stamina has improved massively!

 

[trimlee]

Well done my fellow Shredders! Reading in amazement about people on Level 3....ooh!!
Well, I did Level 1 Day 5 today, couldn't follow completely but felt more comfortable doing it. A bit less achy too ?

 

[Pretika]

Day 15 done for me phew it was hard work today :-(

 

[naz]

Day 9 done today I'm shattered too!! The only easy part on level 2 is neck circles!!

 

[rugbykirsty87]

shred is definatley working for me. i went to my last night at my job tonight, and I had compliements paid to me about how well im looking , that im looking much more positive and confident, it must be the delightful shred!

 

[Surfhunny]

Yay fab news Kirsty! Well done everyone else! I did my Shred just now and found it surprisingly easy tonight I'm not out of breath with the cardio which I was when I first started it. My arms feel a bit achey now but it's a good ache
