-DAY 3- I did the 30 Day Shred, Level 2. Sarah, Level 2 is my fav too (out of 1 & 2, since I haven't dared to even try level 3 either. lol!) However, I pulled out my 3lb. weights today, just in case I didn't think I could do my 5lb. weights. I did all of the strength with the 5lb weights, except for the last rep of strength. (The squat with the fly). I did the first rep of that with 5lbs. It was so hard. So the second round of them, I used the 3lbs. I was laughing so hard, I couldn't believe how much lighter they felt to me. LOL!
When I decided to take on this challenge, I wanted to do the Turbo Jam- Ab Jam workout too whenever I did a Jillian workout, since I'm really trying to target this belly, since it's my biggest problem. However, I really had to push myself to get a workout done today, and by the time I got done with the 30 Day Shred, I didn't have time to get the Ab Jam done too. I had to hurry and shower, and go pick up my oldest from Kindergarten.
Holy Cow though! I'm so sore! I'm not sure how I'm going to get a great workout done tomorrow. It's going to be a funny sight to see, I'm sure! Hahaha!
Rachel, I didn't like Jillian for the longest time. She bugged me for about the first month I did her workouts. But I bought 4 of her workout dvd's for $5 each, and I couldn't let that money go to waste. Plus I was really seeing results with her workouts. They just kick my butt every time I do them. It's easier for me now, because I just shrug it off as 'Jillian being Jillian', and she really doesn't bug me anymore... not that I watch the biggest looser, or that I'm a huge fan of her. I just love the change and progress I see in myself with her torturous help. Hahaha!
I hope I can find strength to get a workout done tomorrow. Maybe I'll be crazy enough to try level 3! Hahaha!
P.S.
Oh, and can I just say how much I HATE doing jumping jacks! I have to try so hard to do my kegel exercises at the same time... and I fail every time. It just SUCKS! I'm sorry if that's TMI for some of you. But I hope I'm not the only one that just HATES the jumping jacks. I have to wear a heavy pad every time I workout. What am I 75!? Sure feels like it when I do those dad-gummid jumping jacks!.... venting is complete now.
Here's to hoping I can move tomorrow!

Hey, your jumping jacks sound like me when I jump on the trampoline with Emily. My bladder has definitely lost some strength somewhere along the way.....
thanks for the encouragement on the Jillian thing...hoping it's not so bad! :) If she gives results, I am game. Because that's sure as heck what I am going for!!!
5 lb weights! Wow! I'm a wimp...I always use 3 lbs and was actually debating if I should start using the 2 lbs.
Love the 1 1/2 hour workout picture by the way...that is SO me. :)
Kathy- I have the same problem on the trampoline too! Do Kegel exercises even work? lol!
Rachel- You're welcome. And Jillian's really bothersome at first, but adventually you get past it.
Sarah- I might start working with the 3 lbs. That's what Jillian uses on the Shred, right? I'm considering using the 3lbs more often. 5lbs are killer!
