I so can't wait for these!!!

Jane P. · 08-29-11, 09:27 AM

I'm anxiously awaiting them as well. I haven't bought many dvds this year. This set is the only thing so I'm really excited.

I hate to be a downer, but I wonder how much Irene will affect the dates.

I can understand delays because of Irene (as above), but I agree that SNM is off on their predictions as they are most times. You'd think by now, with the years of experience they have filming workouts, that they'd learn to give a tentative date that allows for a large margin of error.

They still could make "End of summer," though, as they have until Sept. 22! (IIRC, the last preorder just squeaked by and was mailed out the last day of their projected date---which was actually a revised date...unless that was with a previous pre-order).

ya... irene has nothing to do with the current shipping delays.. since they don't even have the workouts completed (editting, etc...) heck..... they aren't even sending some of them to the replicators for another 10 days or something like that! lol!

On a happier note, she just posted time breakdowns/premixes on the barre workout.

The time breakdown of Turbo Barre is as follows ( warm up 10:41, upper/lower body muscle endurance 10:54, leg work with firewalker loops 6:37, ballet barre leg conditioning 27:31, floorwork 4:05, abs/core 7:34, stretch 7:42) - Total time 74 min

The premixes for Turbo barre are as follows:

1. Lower Body Express

2. Turbo Barre Express #1

3. Turbo Barre Express #2

This DVD is also so chaptered so you can do any of the different workout sections you want to.

*****************************************

I think I'm looking forward to this workout most of all! And it will be worth the wait, IMHO.

I thought I read a reply this weekend from the administrator that they didn't think Irene was going to impact the progress. Of course, I guess things could change.

A compliment to the CS

-
They have been very good about their updates and they are very quick to answer any questions. Thumbs up to whoever is handing out the information.

As far as the ship date, well, it was only an estimated date. I'm happy with an estimate and won't hold it against them because they are up front about it being an estimated time frame. If they weren't giving updates then I could understand a little tension but they have been giving updates and answering questions.

I can't use this series until Oct. I'm getting really excited about these workouts but I have no problem waiting for them at this point.

I'm actually pretty impressed that the shipping date is going to be as close as it is to the original estimate. I never took August 31 as gospel.

Jordan, you're right about the good CS with respect to questions on the forum! I've tagged a couple of questions on to the end of existing threads, and have gotten quick responses. The answers made me happy too!

(FYI: The downloads will include all raw footage included in all premixes on the DVDs, and SNM will provide those who bought downloads info about premixes (or templates for the Workout Blender - I wasn't clear) a couple of weeks after release. The only thing I wasn't happy about is they won't provide downloads of the cover art. Downloads cost the same as DVDs - I think we should get all of the content. SNM are worried about pirating though.)
