I had not done it in years either, so it was refreshing and fun. I probably wouldn't do the music louder option (I didn't) but turn up the volume because it's a fun sound track. I agree with both of you! This is fun because of the company! |

Okay, I did the 80-minute Extreme premix today and had the volume UP because you're so right, such fun music!! It definitely distracted me from how hard I was working. This is SUCH a great workout, I can't believe I've let it sit on my shelf without doing it all this time! I loved the combo of weighted and non-weighted moves, the explosive stuff, just all of it (and I hope I can walk tomorrow!). What a gem!

I have never done the upper body premixes in Push pull. Which upper premix will you be doing from..Push pull?

Well, I ~tried~ to do the Push/Pull upper body x3 premix today, but my DVD player kept freezing, to the point where it was unresponsive! I've never had that happen with Cathe's DVDs before, ever. I was beyond frustrated trying to get things to work, so much so that I went to the original program with the intent of skipping back chapters to get the same workout in. Then it was freezing there too, like I could fast forward and rewind but not skip chapters! ARG!!!
Needless to say, my planned 65-minute workout turned into much longer. That's a shame because this would have been a great upper body workout without the frustration! I tried the DVD on another player we have upstairs (way away from my workout space and equipment) and lo and behold, it's just fine on that player, so something about this particular DVD and my DVD player downstairs just don't jive. If I can't figure something out, I'll probably resort to doing the original workout all the way through, skipping the legs, and then starting over two more times to get the same workout in with a different sequence. Or I might find another workout altogether! I hope this isn't something that will afflict the Super Sets workouts too or I might be really changing up my rotation plans! Beyond irritated today.... Does anyone else have this issue? |

Kittybug, mine, (unfortunately ) worked just fine, lol.
I'm sorry you had trouble with yours :-( I actually have that problem with my Butts and Guts..it freezes right in the middle of the floor work. I have a terrible time running quick to stop and rewind it for my other leg. If I don't hurry, then I push EVERY button on my player until I can get it to restart. Of course, I have to skip all the way thru to get to that part again because goodness knows I can't remember what the exercises are anymore I am really glad you made me do this premix because I would NEVER have pushed myself into doing it. The most I would have tried on my own is the 2x. I had to take walk away breaks at around 30 min and 46 min but I feel thoroughly worked out. Cathe seems to be having a good time and making comments like "are you feeling that toast?" and the Fonzie thumb comment all made me smile. So let's see if I'm still thankful to you tomorrow? Please post if you have problems with the superset side of your DVD. I'll just do a different workout if you're not in my class

BUT...last night, I tried the disc in this older laptop I have that I recently migrated to Windows 10. The update caused the DVD player in the laptop to stop functioning, so I took the time to research how to fix it which worked. Voila, the premix plays just fine on that, so if Super Sets gives me issues, I'll just use that laptop, and I'll just use the laptop for future Push/Pull days! And I hope I'm not 'forcing' you to do anything you don't want to do, hah! I'm glad you enjoyed this workout too yesterday (which I would have WAY more without the technical issues)! I'm actually pleasantly sore today...how about you? |

Kittybug, I'm glad you found a workaround! And I am pleasantly sore. I really believe the sequence of the exercises was very conducive to repeating 3x. I'm not sure that another workout with a different methodology would have worked as well.
Or MAYBE it worked because I donned my Wonder woman tank? I may have to break down and get another copy of B&G. It seems to be getting harder to get it to work once it starts the freezing. It's a great measuring stick of my progress so I do want to keep in my collection. I generally prefer to accidentally get a duplicate copy of a workout than intentionally duplicate acquire. What is our Superset class on Wednesday?

I also agree on accidentally acquiring a dupe...it's better from the guilt aspect! So Wednesday's plan is one of the two-rounds Super Sets premixes, which I'm confused by the descriptions as to what is what, but one is 72 minutes and one is 75 minutes, and I'm planning to do one of those (and crossing my fingers and toes for no more DVD issues!)... |
