The LEAST annoying instructor - Page 5

Least annoying for me:

Patrick Goudeau
Tilak Pyle
Seasun Zieger

Cathe workouts are definitely my most-used ones, but many of her videos from the last few years have been really annoying to me. Too much talk about the "sweep" of the biceps and the "teardrop shape" of the quads or whatever. My personal opinion is that you only need to worry about such intricate details of your anatomy if you're about to step on stage in a physique competition or maybe if you're just incredibly lean and fit and are trying to fine-tune your body. And yet, I will probably preorder her new series...I can't seem to help myself.

I love love love Blissology, but some of Eoin's comments in earlier yoga workouts made me want to shove my hand into the TV and wring his neck.

But seriously, if everything he does from now on has an instruction style similar to Blissology, I will forgive him!

Keli Roberts across the board in all styles of workouts.

For me it's the following instructors:

1) Leslie Sansone (I know, many don't like her, but I really enjoy her demenor)
2) Ellen Barrett
3) Tracey Mallet (though I'd imagine her getting a bit annoying if I'd use her workouts too much in a row.)

If I like the workout, I get used to the instructor, & therefore, I'm not annoyed by anyone. That is, unless I have a bad day or feel grumpy/sleepy. Then, anyone or any comment might annoy me. For the most part, I just get used to different people & their different mannerisms, etc.

Most instructors will get on my nerves after a while. So far, Michelle Dozois, Sadie Lincoln and Alison Davis have not succeeded in that department

The ones I think whose personalities are the easiest to take (not necessarily the ones I do the most):
Tracie Long
Laura Hudson
Ellen Barrett
Elena Brower
Violet Ziaki
Kimberly Spreen
Tanya D
Nancy Tucker
Kari Anderson

Seems like I'm not too easily annoyed by instructors....

Cathe
KCM
Lauren Brooks
Amy Bento
Tracey Staehele( she doesn't annoy me, but the filming and editing of some of her workouts annoy me)

Then there are other instructors who won't annoy in one workout but drive me batty in another. For example: Angie Miller love her in KB Bootcamp, want to mute her in Crave.

None of the really annoy me. There are one or two instructors whose fitness philosophy I don't care for. Jillian Michaels is one of those instructors. There is an underlying negativity with her that doesn't click with me.

But, I don't waste time on workoust that aren't for me. I have so many that I love! The short list of favorites are:

Leslie
Cathe
Michelle Dozois
Allison Davis from the Firm
Annie Lee from the Firm
Tom Holland
Stephanie Huckabee
Tracey Staehle
Amy Bento (though her workouts are not wowing me lately)
Tracy Anderson
