[QUOTE=Taiga;2569190]You probably off loaded it for good reason and it's a testament to the power of the infomercial in luring you back



Yup! You are so right. And I agree with the rest of your review too.
"The power of the informercial".

In true vidiot fashion, I purchased, returned and traded for the set again - I haven't used it yet and it was several months ago since I received the set. I'm thinking about re-trading it!

I really tried to like PIYO but as Allison said, they were repetitive. The same moves were in every workout.

My biggest issue was that I like a bit of a spiritual element to my yoga, and this was like "yoga without a soul". And Chalene would Not-Shut-Up!

I've tried everyone of her Beachbody workouts and I liked the Turbo Jams the best (her earliest). Everything else I've traded.

I saw the Piyo infomercial this weekend. You're right, it's very convincing, lol. I didn't care much for the set (but kept it) and by the end of the infomercial I was wondering if I should try it again. Dang Beachbody!

I absolutely love three of them: Core and the two that use gliding discs. Other than that, they are meh for me. I use the gliding disc ones quite a bit though.

I bought these from Mary and returned them. I really wanted to like them. There were just too many repetitive moves from one workout to another.

Just saw the infomercial - had to watch it a couple of times at 4 AM. Ahhh, the lure of a good commercial. Intrigued almost to purchase, buy thanks for all your reviews, I can pass.

I purchased the set last summer (20014). Loved them so much that I got certified to teach it. Having gotten used to the live class format, now I don't care for the home version.

I found the DVDs repetitive and didn't do them. My teenage daughter loved them. I would bet live classes would be more fun.
