I used to love Tracie but disliked the Longevity and Reboot period workouts. Just so fast paced I felt like I was flinging around with poor form. How are the 30 minute metabolic and core workouts? I watched the clips and they seem more doable for me. I like that they are rated intermediate and just 30 minutes.

You’re welcome!

The weight work in the MS workouts is not too fast-paced. I can use heavier weights with good form for the most part.

I remember hating one of the Reboots for that exact reason.

Got to do Coming on Strong from her MS Vol. 1&2 (Coming on Strong is Vol. 1).

you can heavy up, although i just used 8# DBs throughout. there are burpees and mountain climbers in the last segment called "Metabolic Finisher". i knew this beforehand because i read the VF review (see link below). i modified these by using a chair (hands on seat of chair instead of all the way on the floor).

the dumbbell work is enjoyable some unusual moves but doable.

it's 31 min long.

My favorite MS is volumes 3 and 4, not too tough but both really solid workouts. I think these have cool down stretches but I may be mistaken...

I'm really late to this thread (and these workouts have sat on my shelf, undone). Thank you so much for doing this!
