Ditto to both of these lol. I'm finishing up level 3 today and my push ups are still on the knees!

Rest on your knees instead of your toes. Jillian approves of this cheat if you need to.

Neither can I. I have a really bad elbow, so when I do pushups, my elbow does this grinding thing and it's miserable.
I just finished my third workout today, and I can already feel it getting easier. I officially have faith in this thing haha.

We were going to skip last night, since we were both running on 2 hours of sleep, but the kids talked us into doing it - they've decided they like doing it with us.
Moving up to Level 2 tonight.

Getting back on track on Level 2.
OMG - forget torture or waterboarding or whatever...just make your captive do plank-jacks and they will tell you whatever you want to know in a hurry. They are the DE-BIL.

Once I got over the quad-jihad, level 1 wasn't bad at all. So, I moved to level 2 this morning.

LOL...quad-jihad is right!
I just started this DVD yesterday. The first day was harder than I thought it was going to be and today was a little better, probably because I knew which exercises to expect.
It does seem a little awkward - I'm just supposed to do the same workout over and over again? I thought that it wasn't recommended to work the same muscles over and over again. It sounds like other people here were doing 10 days on level 1, 10 days on level 2 and 10 days on level 3. I guess than plan sounds as good as any!
