Great thread! Once all the beach body programs are included in the list, this will make a wonderful resource for a lot of us! I'd like to see where Project You will turn up in there. :-)

Hard for me to add too much because my experience of Beachbody stuff is limited. But I think that if you average out the difficulty of the workouts, probably Yoga Booty Ballet fits in between Hip Hop Abs and Brazil Butt Lift - definitely easier than BBL, but I think on average harder than HHA.

As for Rockin' Body, particularly when accounting for the strength workout with eleventy hundred push-ups in it, I think that's probably harder than BBL. But I haven't used Power 90 or Power Half Hour or Piyo so I have no idea exactly where that would go, just probably toward at the lower end of things (and also that it's currently missing from the list).

Power 90 has always looked interesting to me, not just Turbojam. A very long time that has been, btw. It was around from those old cable infomercials.

Though Turbojam really seems to be possible to fit in at my level.

I'm in no condition to downmodify a Martian workout and make it work on my version of planet Earth, as I know plenty but not that much ...

I would be so interested to see a potentially more difficult set but they are more concentrated on intermediate levels with their latest releases.
You could always do two workouts of insanity max 30 back to back. That would be bring out the bucket for me.
