Moving On?

Posted on the 20 July 2011 by Thesecretlifeofjen

I have to admit that I was a bit disappointed when I saw this >Moving on?This is my (brief) stats from yesterday.  6 minutes vigorous activity after SHRED?  I seriously thought that Level 2 of 30 Day Shred would mean more than 6 minutes vigorous activity(!).  The whole point of Shred is that it is 20 minutes of *intensity*.  I can hear Jillian from the DVD -  “you need to give me 20 minutes of intensity guys, 20 minutes”. (Haha, weird!)

So what’s the deal?  I feel like I am working insanely hard… like sweat rollin down my face hard.  Alexandra rec’d trying Level 3, because it’s not that much of a step up.  Which I am definitely going to do – see if I can handle it.  I’m actually starting to get excited by exercise – who’d have thought?!  :)

But I am also wondering whether it’s time for more.  I definitely feel stronger, and last longer without modifications (like tonight at Step – burpees anyone?!  That’s another story!).

I do love the convenience of doing Shred at home, on a day when 20 minutes is totally achievable and hassle-free (better than nothing, right?).  But I’ve heard that alot of people ‘graduate’ from doing Shred to something like p90x etc.

I know that I have a long way to go, but definitely don’t want to plateau and stop pushing myself.

Any suggestions?
