Definitely a sign. I also signed up for the free barre3, 2 week trial because all of a sudden I'm obsessed with barre3. I hated the 28 day set and now I love it *shrug*. I've been doing their YouTube stuff, the DVDs and the streaming.

A sign that I should definitely start the challenge on the 20th...I just checked and delivery date for my laptop has been moved UP to 10/20!

I signed up also using the fitforfall code. After the first month I will probably sign up for a longer period. I like that her workouts are short enough to add on to KCM's or Cathes or anything else I want to do. Or I can do a longer workout of just her if I choose to.

Suzanne has a great demeanor and is very encouraging. The only tiny peeve I had was she's a talker so I just jogged in place while she set up the next move. Definetly not a deal breaker though.

She is but it doesn't bother me because barre is ALL about form. Since she can't correct us in a live class, she has to talk more to set the exercises up. I like to shake out my legs during that time, and sometimes March lightly in place, as that helps shake my legs out too.

I've noticed some of the videos have more setup time in them than others do. Maybe you just got one of the longer ones. I don't find her set up as slow as some of The Bar Method videos I've done.

I received an email announcing new challenge, and it also says that calendar of workouts will be posted on FB. What if I'm not on FB? Does she also post a full calendar in members section on her site?

Usually they will email the calendar to you as well. If you don't get it, PM me and I will send it to you.

I actually just cancelled my membership recently. I love Suzanne but there wasn't enough variety for me - all the workouts kind of felt the same. I have all of her BarreAmped DVD's (including TTT, Gorgeous Core and the older Pilates one) and will be buying her new Cardio DVD, so I think rotating those in with other things I like (floorwork and yoga) is good for me right now. I just wasn't using the subscription much.

I'm getting excited for the challenge, I think if I find it repetitive I'll just sub in something else - maybe Barre3 or Ellen to keep it fresh.

Although I have been working out regularly I am not 'loving it' right now, so I'm hoping an organized challenge will get me more enthused. I'm guessing to get the most out of it I should join FB and follow her? I have avoided FB like the plague, but I'm thinking of signing up w/ a fake name just to follow the challenges.

You have to FB to access this challenge? I refuse to FB but I want to participate, if possible.

I signed up for a year membership w/SBF a few weeks ago. Did a month of SBF for free. In the six weeks that I've been supplementing my workouts with an SBF session and limiting my intense cardio sessions to 2x a week, I've seen amazing changes in my body and feel so much better. My legs are looking fierce---leaned out an strong---and my core is getting very strong. I attribute this primarily to my SBF sessions.
