I did Upper Body today and liked it. No problems with freezing issues. I also previewed Lower Body and Total Body and there didn't appear to be any problems there. Will probably enjoy those, as well.
 I'm not pleased that my case arrived broken, and the plastic is busted up in the top right-hand corner.  But, I will probably remove the discs from their case and put in something else temporarily while I do the rotation. Jessica seems to appear a little more serious in the strength portions of the workouts of WS3. But, she's also busy lifting some decent sized weights! I could not match her for some of the exercises. My shoulders would have been killing me afterwards.

I FINALLY got a chance to watch all the previews. I was looking for a lot more cardio because I'm really into the ART Method right now, but I would love more interesting cardio (not just walking) for the winter. So I'm only interested in the following:
Pilates + Yoga Barefoot Cardio Core Barre Sculpt Tone & Flow Boogie IT Cardio Step Jam But I'm most interested in the cardio ones, because I already own Barre Fitness and Total Body Balance so there's probably a lot of similarity to the pilates/yoga/barre ones. So that brings it down to the 3 cardio ones I'd really like. I was hoping she would offer the individual workouts in her digital download store, but it doesn't look like she breaks up the sets at all Also, I bought her last set and have hardly used it. I do other strength work like barre (finished a 9-week Suzanne Bowen rotation before ART), yoga, and other fusion stuff, so I find I never use her strength workouts. I really like and want to support Jessica, but I'm going to have to pass. |

I did Upper Body today, this time using the DVD player in my workout room, and had no freezing issues. So hopefully it was just an odd, one-time glitch. Which is good since I did like this one!

I skipped the first days workout of the rotation foundations and started with metabolic condititioning. It was tough, I was sweating a lot, I would rate it intermediate/ advanced, I lifted fairly heavy weights too, 10 and 15 pounds.

A while back I got a DVD that didn't work at all. I washed it with soft soap & water on a piece of old Tee shirt and dried it carefully. It has worked great ever since.

Is there anyone else, or am I the only one not "feeling" these workouts? I've done about half and viewed the rest and for some reason these are clock watchers for me. I don't know what it is as I love Jessica! One thing I do know that I'm not crazy about is the totally uninspiring music played at a low volume. Maybe the other thing is flow? I don't know...

The set is nice. I like these but not enough to keep them. I'll stick with Cathe for the weight work. I want to send these back before the Christmas rush. I have until February 1st.

So my experience was the same as yours. I just hope whatever issue I had before with Upper Body is resolved. Maybe it was just a tiny piece of grit or something. I am planning to try Upper Body today as my workout, which will use a different DVD. Am keeping my fingers crossed!
