Completed week 1 R3 last night and feel great... For years I have felt achy and sore just getting up out of chairs etc (and I'm embarrassingly young for that to be the case) but I can really feel that changing!

Well done for finishing Week 1! Keep up with the stretching and those aches will ease (a little) as your body gets used to it :)
