I never did any of her workouts, just never had the chance, she had been on my radar to try - but I really didn't like the tone of that video. Like we are here to serve her or something? It is just very off-putting and doesn't make me want to give her the views.
It is like she is whining about all the work it is to put up videos - well, no one is forcing you to do it - don't do us any favors then! I unsubscribed from her channel. Donna |

Regardless I wish she would make more videos. I enjoy them and the quiet pace. I don’t want mini clips of what to do - I can do that with paper workouts, like Joyce Vedral or Mind Pump’s programs. I like having someone to workout with even if they are only on video.

That is a good point. I have downloaded her 20 minute ones as well as a ton of YT workouts from various instructors in case they are removed, but when I do the workouts I always do them on YT rather than the downloads so they get the views. That way I don't feel bad at all for downloading free workouts!

So is she just linking a 30 minute video for each week and doing some kind of commentary? You do it 3-4 times?
I really don’t get what goal she’s trying to hit. Is it views, likes, or subscriptions? Or all, lol. I’m going to unsubscribe, don’t need to be scolded for not liking or commenting. I liked previewing what she posted (I’m doing other programs), but too much drama for the effort. I used to subscribe to Facebook group that did the threatening thing each time a recipe was posted. If we didn’t like or comment, they were going to stop posting. It got old and I unsubscribed. To many other choices out there.

I just watched the video. I guess I can see where she's coming from as far as knowing what content to provide if there's not much feedback. Like if hubby doesn't tell me what meals he especially likes or really doesn't like, how do I know what to put on our menus so he enjoys what he's eating. Right? I sort of wonder if maybe her communication style just comes off wrong to her audience. I found the video interesting but I agree there was that little bit toward the end that was very off-putting. I haven't actually done any of her workouts yet even though I have downloaded a lot of them. (Too many workouts, too little time, the constant lament of a VFer! ) I unsubscribed from her channel after she started deleting workouts.

Another one here that doesn't like to be scolded. I really like her 30 minute workouts. I guess I'd better download them before they disappear. I think there was a thread on how to download youtube videos but I can't seem to find it. Can someone point me in the right direction?
