Hi ladies, can I join you? I ordered the DVD and some weights today and am planning to start on Monday after a weekend away at my parents.
How's everyone finding it so far? I'm hoping to shift a bit of weight (think I have actually managed to put on weight since giving birth due to bf induced cake cravings ) and to tone up. Would be nice to fit back into my pre pregnancy clothes.
Any words of encouragement appreciated, I haven't done any exercise in well over a year!
Welcome im yet to start as iv been too ill but now on medication and as soon as my energy levels are back im going to get started! im also wanting to shift some weight and tone!
Here's some encouragement - I don't weigh myself but just for interests sake I took measurements at the beginning - well, on Day 5 measured again, not expecting anything, but have lost an inch off my waist already! Crazy!
I hadn't exercised for well over a year either and am managing it - actually really enjoying pushing myself and feel like I am already getting stronger.
I didnt loose any weight doing the shred but i did lose 8" altogether, 3" on just my tummy! I definately recommend taking measurments to track progress!
Day 6 done - ugh, wasn't feeling it today! Glad I made myself though. My knee (old injury) is giving me a bit of trouble at the beginning, but then by the end is ok...hope that's a good sign! Guess I will keep an eye on it and if it gets worse then modify some exercises.
Bit scared about level 2 - apparently it's quite a big jump from level 1 and I'm not sure I will ready in 4 more days! I know if I really don't feel ready I should stay with level 1....will see how it feels!
is anyone on sw doin this and finding its slowed their losses down?i was doing cross trainer and exercise bike and weights at home. was gettin steady 3 or 4lb losses.been doin this 5 days and only 1/2lb off this week?
Pleased to hear some of you didn't find Level 2 too bad!
My knee is giving me real trouble...grrrr.....it's an old roller derby injury but has been fine for ages. But this morning it is hurting if I try and do any bends or lunges...so annoyed!
I may take a rest day today and try some modifications when I start again tomorrow. Really frustrated as I am actually feeling committed to exercising for once in my life! But don't want to completely ruin my knee...
Apparently Jillian didn't design it to be 30 days in a row, but that's how it was marketed....I don't know, I read up on it and it seems quite a few fitness experts say that rest days are important. I was going to have a rest day between each level, but will have to see how much my knee can cope with!
