30 day shred ... Level 2

[TrollyDolly1]

Wow! All those planks. Does it get easier?

[ellenbrody]

Ha ha, yes, they're tough aren't they!
It does get better, those blardy military presses don't though!!

[TrollyDolly1]

I was quite good (I thought) at level 1 and then level 2 happened. I'm not even sure I was doing half of the exercises right! Still, no pain, no gain.

[TrollyDolly1]

TeaCupCrazy - day 10 of level 2? Well done. I'm struggling to find motivation today.

[BambieO]

Oh nooooo! I'm on level 2 tomorrow I was hoping you would all say it's incredibly easy

[HeySoulSister]

I can't do level 2.... Cos my t shirt bunches up and my feet slip!

I'm making excuses I think!

[BambieO]

In that case I shall venture forth bravely and let you know how I find it I am sure it will be impossible for me, I'm about as fit and healthy as a Big Mac

[AfternoonsandCoffeespoons]

Well I'm on day 3 of Level 1 (and apparently still alive!) so watching this thread with interest. And terror .

[Spamspamspam]

I have just completed day 1 level 2 - whoo hoo!

I did level 1 for 10 days and then stupidly had three days off as firstly it was mothers day on Sunday and then I just couldn't get the motivation for the last 2 days....was going to do another couple of days on level 1 just to get me going again but when the DVD came on thought sod it lets try level 2. I was terrified because so many people said it was so much harder than level 1 BUT I am not so sure...I know I didn't do half the moves correctly but still it was not AS BAD as my head was telling me.

Tomorrow though is another story

[BambieO]

Well done!

[TrollyDolly1]

Yes, I am doing it everyday. As I was bouncing around last night I could hear my pouch of skin just above my c section scar thwacking around. It was gross, reminded me why I am doing it.

I just have to keep telling myself it's only 20 mins, it's only 20 mins. It's my mantra. I have to say it in my head though, I have no breath left to say it out loud!

[BambieO]

Hi trolley, there is hope for the section pouch! Mine is actually shrinking a bit doing the shred so fingers crossed :)

[hermioneweasley]

I hated level 2. I think level 3 is easier

[Lickitysplit]

I am on day 6 of level 2, my ankles are hurting, is this happening with anyone else?

[ellenbrody]

Not my ankles - my knees!
L3 is easier than L2, it's a bit harder on cardio but easier on strength, which is the thing I struggle with!
20 minutes is just about doable!!

[BambieO]

Day 10 complete, half excited half dreading level 2!

[BambieO]

Go for it tea, you probably weren't ready for levels 1 and 2 but you did it :)

[TrollyDolly1]

Oh Bambie, you have given me hope. It is a truly disgusting noise, put it this way, if my boobs bounced like that I would be giving myself a black eye! Haha.

Go for it tea! You can do it.

[TrollyDolly1]

I've done it! I don't know why I didn't do it this morning and get it over with instead of thinking about it all day. L2D2 done!!
