I think I've talked myself into waiting. I don't need to spend all the money a package costs, even at a discount. In December, I'll just buy a 3 month membership and try them out then! I reserve the right to change my mind should I come into some extra money though.

Laura, I think you can make MBFA more intermediate by using lower weights. I've previewed a couple of them and they move at a good pace like MBF so you can modify up or down.
Liz, I have a NordicTrack Commercial 2150 treadmill that I bought in 2012. It was the first NordicTrack treadmill with an integrated 10" tablet/screen. That model was discontinued but the equivalent model now would be a NordicTrack Commerical 1750. The maximum incline is 15% with a 3% decline. I prefer a treadmill to an incline trainer which goes up to 40% incline/5% decline. I have no desire to walk/run up a hill that steep, lol. I also belong to an iFit Facebook group and see lots of complaints about the incline trainers with the large 32" screens. I've had zero problems with my treadmill so far, knock on wood! I LOVE iFit! The video programs are amazing! You get to see different parts of the world and your treadmill speed/incline automatically adjusts. You can also manually change it to whatever you want if it's too fast or too slow but to get it to do it automatically, you have to "follow the trainer". But you can follow the inclines and change the speed or follow the speed and change the inclines, they are separate adjustments. iFit also has an android and IOS app that you can use paired with your treadmill or in unpaired mode. I love this for the weight workouts they are offering now. They've become like Beachbody with a huge library. They are also offering some "live" workouts that are filmed real time. I did a 5k in Utah a few weeks ago that I really enjoyed! I couldn't run as fast as the trainer but I ran "my" speed and had a great time. Sue, yeah I wish they would release them to everyone at the same time. But I think early access is a new revenue stream for them. Angela, yep I get it! I'm only keeping the subscriptions I use. I now have BOD, Cathe Live, and Coffeyfit.

Day 5: Full Body Burn - Time: 32 Minutes
Four Blocks - each exercise is done for 8-16 reps and there are two or three rounds. Equipment needed: Weights (heavy, medium, light), BOD Ropes (fake jump rope), Mat (optional). Megan had 20 lbs., 15 lbs., and 10 lbs. dumbbells. Thoughts: I went slightly lower in weight than Megan because of my shoulders. I really like this workout too! I followed the modifier Lacee who didn’t jump with the BOD ropes. Block 1 – Asymmetric (one dumbbell) reps are repeated on left/right: Swing and Rack (16 reps) Step out and Squat (8 reps) Combo: Two Swing and Rack / One Step out and Squat (4 reps) Repeat each side twice BOD Rope (1 minute) Block 2 – (two dumbbells): Squat into Lateral Raise (8 reps) Slow Romanian Deadlift then two hammer curls (3 reps) Repeat 3 times BOD Rope (1 minute) Block 3 – Asymmetric (one dumbbell): Split Squat (8 reps) Bent Over Row – Two reps - stand (8 reps) Combo: One Split Squat / Two Bent Over Rows (4 reps) Repeat each side twice BOD Rope (1 minute) Block 4 – (two dumbbells): Sumo Squat into Upright Row – (8 reps) Dumbbell Press Out (dumbbells chest height together) / Calf Raise – (6 reps) Repeat 3 times BOD Rope (1 minute)

I just got a BOD subscription and bought the early access. I was thinking 10 rounds (which I'll have access to next week anyway) but I think this may be what I need to keep me accountable to working out regularly, re-building my strength and endurance and get me around the mental block of working out too long, pushing too hard, then not working out for days. I also ordered the face jump rope from amazon (thanks for the link Kathy) as it will get here in a few days instead of taking forever and not being shipped until 8/31 with BB.
I had to invest in new shoes as well. That was part of my problem....worn out shoes.
