Regret getting rid of workouts

I've been on a Tracie Long workout kick lately. She was the first instructor I really clicked with years ago when I discovered her and the FIRM. I purchased a couple of TLT workouts when she came out with them and didn't like them. I ended up donating them to my library.

Fast forward to this year and I found some of her Focus workouts on Youtube (which have since been removed). I fell in love with her workouts again and started purchasing her Focus and Longevity series. Now I wish I had not given away those TLT DVD's. I guess at the time I wasn't ready for her unique functional fitness moves!

How many of you have given away/sold/traded DVD's that you regret?

Too many to post or admit!

I'm in the midst of re-obtaining the Yoga Booty Ballet workouts....must be my what, 4th or 5th time getting them back?

Of course, with exercise DVDs on their way out I'm re-acquiring several DVDs that 4 years ago I thought were meh.

Lol Wendy, more than one for sure!
I have re-acquired a few I regretted selling or trading, most of which I considered too gentle or easy at the time, but now are just what I need. A shift in my goals & some chronic issues have forced me to re-evaluate my workouts over the past few years.

The TLTs haha! Same story -- didn't really get them when I first got them, repurchased years later when I discovered Tracie and the Firm, and now I really like them.

Speaking of the Firm, I also did this with the Firm. I scored the classic Firms for a song on VHS. Tried Firm Volume 1 and swore it wasn't for me. The outfits, the music, and yes it was hard! Years later, and now I own many Firm dvds. Firm Volume 1 is still hard though lol!

Blissology! Initially didn't feel the love, now I don't know what I was thinking. These calm me in a way I can't explain. The same with Christi Taylor's Totally Cool Step. That took about four times to feel the love though, and usually with Christi I'm hooked right away.

These are the biggies, although I'm sure there are many more . I guess I can't really call it regret, as I've reacquired nearly all my initial "meh" workouts.

Patti-please let me know which ones you are looking for. I've seen them at my library sales for a $1.00 once in awhile.

I sold my Beachbody Pump when it was discontinued. I got a lot of money for it. Earlier this year I realized it was how I got my best results. I bought it on eBay a few months ago. After I spent all that money (again) I found Les Mills on Demand.

No regrets because I just re-buy/re-acquire it.
And then sometimes I get rid of it again.

I think my record was P57 Arm and Ab Booster. I think I'm on my 4th copy...or 5th.

I have gotten Fe Fit and The Firm Express a few times each. I hope I don't find a good deal on either of them anytime soon.
