I'm on week 2 and I don't do weekends on lvl 2 finally and I can see difference already!

I really need to start this up again. The easiest motivator for me is that "It's just 20 minutes". That used to trick me into popping in the DVD and doing it

I think I may ad six pack abs in 6 weeks on top of this not sure yet

My week 2 starts tomorrow...i was hoping to move onto level 2 but it looks brutal! I hope i can last through it!

Its not to bad my issue is the arms, they feel like they are going to fall off when I'm doing the work out lol.

Lately I've been including Level 1 in my workout routine once a week. I started to consider it one of my 'easier' days in the week, e.g. I did it earlier this week when I had a cold and wanted a not so intense workout.

Today I finally did Level 2 and wow I was drenched!!! that short workout was more exhausting to me than her whole BFBM dvd! I had to take short breaks a couple of times and felt like at first, but now I'm strangely excited to have that new challenge in my workout especially the compound moves seem a lot harder than in Level 1!

I've been doing the shred for almost 3 weeks now (4 days into level 2) but I feel like my knees are bothering me a bit, anyone else? Should I stop doing the workouts?

I only did the shred for a few weeks I think and it really busted my knees. Took them about one year to recover :( But I've had problems with my knees on and off before that. I would find another exercise that doesn't rely on jumping so much if I were you. Knees are delicate body parts and not easily fixed.

On day 2.......

I seriously need to start this program again...

I just started this morning : )

This is a great workout especially when you don't have a lot of time to workout.

On Day 5... and loving it!

Just searched this thread to see if I should try this dvd when I have knee issues. I bought the dvd but I think I am going to pass. Sounds like a lot of people did real well with it,but way to many people complained of knee pain. Anyone have a recommendation for a dvd that is not hard on the knees?

I love this workout! It is short but effective. Stick with it for 30 days and you will see results.If you follow a healthy eating plan you will get better results. This is one of the best Jillian Micheal DVD's and it get you real results fast. I did not follow a diet but did the workout for 30 days and saw a reduction in my waist, hip, thigh size and toned up my arms pretty good too.

I did the workout with 2kg weights. If you are new to exercise there is an option for modified versions of the tougher exercises.

This was the first JM DVD I bought and after the results I saw I am hooked and got more from her workout collection namely Ripped in 30, 6 weeks abs, no more trouble zones, shed fast boost metabolism and killer buns and thighs!

The workouts on 30 day shred are progressive and only 20 mins where you do 3 circuits. Every 10 days you move to the next level where the excercises become more intense. You get a full body workout and I think it is pretty good if your are short on time or starting out!

Goodluck!
