I pretty much have to modify and from the earlier Lauren videos, have gotten pretty good at it.

Kelly wrote back to me on Facebook saying you can do the program without a step and without even a KB, just use the dumbbell - perhaps that is all the modification we get? (subbing out a DB)
I hate to say this but I think I made the right call for not pre-ordering. I like having a modifier and she has always used one, well maybe up until most recent releases anyway.

The workouts look good though, set looks nice and Kelly looks great as always but I don't think I really need these anyway. I will be interested in hearing everyone's thoughts on them once they have the DVDs in their hands.

I think I read either on Facebook or on Kelly's forum a comment from her to the effect that she has modifications offered as needed, based on her experience from teaching the workouts in her classes for months before filming.

I know that as a beat up 60+ year old, I need more modifications than she is offering these days. Luckily I've been doing this long enough I know what to do. It was nice though to actually have a designated modifier who modified anything that was questionable.

That's exactly my reaction to the clip. It seems unexciting and like a gazillion other Kelly workouts. I don't regret ordering since the price was so reasonable but I'm not really looking forward to it.

These look really good to me. Almost wish I had preordered. Ah well, maybe in a trade or at a later date.

Carol, I could have written your post word-for-word. I Kelly; she is a mainstay in my workout rotation, but I've had to modify a lot in the last few dvds of hers. Fortunately, I know how & I'm old enough to be long past the 'I've gotta keep up' compulsion. I'd love to see her go back to her Step Boxing level of intensity/impact.

I caved. I'm not sold on kbkb, but I'm sure I'll like the rest. I'm also going to stop looking at the YouTube clip before I find things to criticize. haha I canceled my Callanetics order with Amazon because I looked at the clip too often and didn't like what I saw.

I missed the preorder because I'm going to wait for reviews. I'm a little late to the KCM party (although my collection has expanded since last year), and while these look good I want to wait and hear others' thoughts.
