"I've heard a lot of instructors mention that they are thinking or planning to make new workouts but have yet to see anything materialize. Toby M said he was thinking about it but nothing came of it. Susan Chung supposedly was going to film a new kickboxing workout but I haven't heard anything since it was first mentioned. Michelle D. supposedly is working on something (I have higher hopes that this will materialize). "
YES!!! Some of my favorite instructors!! I really do hope that SOMEONE will create a decent DVD for those of us dinosaurs that still love the dvd format. I'm not against streaming or downloads (I do Cathe Live) but I also LOVE my dvd's. Each time this subject is brought up, I look at my library and think....yes you will survive with what you own....still makes me a bit sad though. |

Honestly, I'm totally prepared for downloads and would be okay with new workouts in that format instead of physical dvds but my point is that it seems like we aren't seeing anything new being produced, at least not at the rate and volume we were getting a few years ago. It almost feels like a lot of individual instructors are giving up and going back to whatever got them started in the first place (private gyms or personal instructors to celebrities, etc). Subscribing to multiple streaming outlets to satisfy my exercise ADD is never going to happen. What a money drain.
I haven't even bothered to sign back up for Cathe Live since I got tired of it and didn't use it all that much. I may sign back up for that at some point in the future when I feel like using that format again, but since she doesn't do any heavy lifting (it's almost all endurance, cardio or metabolic based stuff) then it has a limited use for me.

Totally agree with this sentiment. And the thing with streaming for me is that while I enjoy it for a change (doing a bit of Cathe Live right now), I won't stick with it. I like knowing the routines ahead of time, what to expect, where to place them in my rotations. I *like* doing a dvd many times because I get better each time I do it. Also, streaming simply doesn't work anywhere, anytime for me like a DVD or download does.

If there is someone you want to quote, go to the box where their comment is. At the bottom right of the box should be 3 buttons. One will say "Quote". Click on that button and you'll get a Reply screen with their comments shown, in brackets with coding symbols. Their comments will be in brackets; leave as is. But you can delete anything as long as you keep the stuff in brackets. That's the coding. Hope that helps you!
