Amy Bento's new Dynamic Series - 5 (or 6) DVDs filming soon

[DawnP]

Jen from AdvancedWorkouts.com is going to be in Amy Bento's upcoming DVD series - more news on Jen's blog here.

Looks like it's going to be a Bosu workout, strength training, advanced kettlebell workout, abs+stretch, hi-lo and (tentatively) a hip-hop walking workout.

Thanks for the info, Dawn. For once I am not even tempted. After Amy's last two (which are okay, but I don't love them), I have come to realize I am just not destined to really click with Amy. I love KBX, but despite trying all of her other w/os, I just can't get into Amy. She seems like such a sweet instructor, that I almost feel bad about that! LOL!

Yesssssssssss!

I hope she does do the hip hop walking becaus eit sound sreally fun.

And I hope she makes a total body, 50-60 minute weight training workout that doesn't require too much equipment.

I am definitely interested in the Hi/Lo Workout, Hip-Hop Walking Workout (finally accepted I need to cross train better!) and possibly the abs/stretch workout, depending on the types of exercises Amy plans. I don't think my knee likes me to do cardio on the BOSU right now, and I traded Slo-Mo without even opening it. Again, it would depend on what kinds of strength Amy was planning--something functional without lots of equipment would be nice. I'm definitely interested in the kettlebell workout, but will wait for reviews on the first one.

I feel pretty much the same way (except I don't "love KBX").

I've culled several of her workouts from my collection, and there are others I maybe should get rid of because I don't use them for various reasons : too much space, choreo that doesn't flow for me, annoying lack of cuing, weight moves that seem 'innovative' just for the heck of it and sometimes of questionable safety.

The advanced kettlebell workout sounds tempting, but I'm afraid I would end up disappointed in it for some of the above reasons.

I have too many workouts already, and don't need any more that may be just 'okay' for me.

I'd be interested in the walking and maybe the hi/lo since I can modify the impact downward.

Not even remotely interested in any of these offerings except the Hip Hop walk. That sounds kind of interesting, but I'll be waiting for more details on this one.

I am starting to feel the love for Amy again

I'm sure I'll be getting these. Although I don't have kettlebells or BOSU
But I hope the Strength Dynamics will be challenging high rep. Similiar to Cathe's powerhour or Get Ripped. Amy's got to give Jari some competition!

Ditto to that....Amy seems really sweet, but I've tried several of her workouts and traded them all! Kudos to her for her new project, though.
