I usually do try to use a trainer first before purging. Previewing alone doesn't really give the trainer a shot, IMHO. I will share what works for me to try different trainers and get through those 'new to me' workouts.
A LONG time ago Cathe said she loosely followed this template to stay in shape.
Cathe template:
Heavy for 3 weeks
Random workouts for 1 week
Light for 3 weeks (full body, circuit, metabolic)
Random for 1 week
(Rinse, repeat. )
(I have no idea if she still does this.)
I just basically focus on one style of training for 3 weeks, then alternate with a week of random. So depending on how you train with Joyce, she could fill one of these categories for 3 weeks , or she could be a week of random.
Hope that helps!
