Is there a 30 day shred thread for March yet? If not, this can be it!

[GandTnow]

I need to have someone to do this with, I tried it once and got to day 3 but then gave up. Please join me if you want to attempt this with me.

Ri30 L2 D 9 done. I'll move on to L3 next week.

Georgina, I've done shred 3 times now - but doing it better/bigger weights/more intensely each time. Nowt wrong with that if it suits you!

G&T - yes, Ri30 is about the same length as shred. L1 is maybe a bit easier than L3 of shred but it gets harder so I reckon it's a good one to move on to.

Lindt is traumatised by L2 6w6p

I'm pretty sure I already have a six pack, it's just a very well cushioned six pack.

Mines a wrinkly six pack I've lost just over a stone since January on the plus side

IdkickJilliansAss I am traumatised! Still got big bruises on one leg from whacking it with my 2.5kg weight while staggering around my bedroom trying to keep up. Ooo, having flashbacks.

I tried it once and gave up, at least you persevered

Done L2 again today.
I don't like the skater things though at all.
May do NMTZ later or tomorrow for a change.

GeorginaWorsley, I hated those skater things too. It was not pretty when I was doing those!

IdkickJilliansAss - Over a stone is amazing! I've lost 6lbs. I'm sure I could lose more if I stopped eating chocolate and drinking wine. Also, I haven't done a JM session today. H decided to work from home again which always cramps my style.

I haven't done anything either, DS has been unsettled so I'm having a rest

hi ladies,

I'm taking a rest day as well today. I hardly slept last night and when the alarm went off at 6am I switched off and had another hour in bed :)

Will be back at it tomorrow!

One of my close friends is a personal trainer abd she told me that it is on the rest days that the magic happens so we're all golden!

Oh. I've just done KB&T L1D2. I'm not golden!

I've got a 6-pack... of uncooked white bread rolls

Flipping heck. D1 L2 30DS. Ow. Ow. Ow. However, I did it.

Have watches Ripped In 30 on YouTube and am considering attempting it tomorrow ....

I now substitute another cardio move fir the skater things!

What's wrong with skaters? A walk in the JM park compared to the hell that is press ups!

Off on hols - NMTZ packed. Am I desperately sad?

Also just received delivery of bob's kettlebell workout which I shall try and report back on... But not for another week or so.

N

DaddyPig Bob has a video on YouTube that shows the basic kettlebell moves which is supposed to be useful before starting his workouts. The reviews of his DVDs say they make JM look like a walk in the park

Like your style Errol!

KB&T L1 D6 done

Oohdaddy, have a nice holiday!

30DS L3D1 done. We get to see Natalie's tummy on level 3. AIBU to be just a little bit in love? Anita is too perfect and intimidating but Natalie... Forewarned is forearmed so I knew to vacuum before level 3 or I would have been sneezing on those Superman poses. Is it just me or is level 3 a lot more fun than level 3? After working through levels 1 and 2 it's great to know how quickly I'll improve on the level 3 exercises.

Also first proper kettlebell session done with my new 4 kg bell. I definitely needed it, those website advising starting with an 8 kg bell are either craaaazy or doing a very different workout to the DVD I have. The 8 kg bell is fine for the double handed leg work but there's no way I could press it above my head one-handed at this stage. I think I'll need to look at YouTube for some more instructional videos as I'm not certain of my form with the kettlebell. Tbh I hadn't even heard of them before this thread.

It's weird that a few weeks ago I wasn't doing any exercise other than walking and now I have a little fitbell rack with a couple of kettlebells beside it and a small stack of exercise DVDs.

Oh and I tried the plank naked to see what my tummy looked like. WHAT A HUGE MISTAKE! All the flab just hangs down loose with nothing inside it! I suppose that's good in that it shows I don't have visceral fat, it's all subcutaneous fat... but my first response was, "Oh my god I need liposuction." I also tried the stomach vacuum looking in the mirror and it is awesome! My waist looks tiny when I do it and there's definitely a six-pack under those abs. Just got to keep on working on the exercise and lose a bit more weight and I'll be beach ready in a few years.

Sorry for all the exclamation marks. I think exercise leaves me really pumped.

Do you have DC Stuntnun if ao could it be loose skin?

NMTZ and KB&T L1 done

Ri30 L1 D8 done, think I'm ready for L2, maybe tomorrow.
Errol you're right about the Lycra, will be demoting cotton joggers to pajama drawer.

Found my missing dumbbell BTW, it was in the playroom not the washing machine!
