I've had my eye on and off ART for quite some time. I'm a dinosaur and have no clue how this whole subscription thing works. If I subscribed, I would have access to the workouts that I can just play from my computer and workout that way? I am so intrigued by this system. TIA

Yes, you sign in through your Google, Facebook or Twitter account. I tried to sign up through Twitter but it didn't work so I ended up signing up through Google. You have access to play the workouts from your computer but you can't download them. Once you subscribe, you'll see the list of workouts on the right side of the screen and you can scroll down to see them all. There are a lot to choose from.

Thank you so much. Sounds easy enough

There is a lot of plank work. There are 30 pushups in the tech study and the tech study is done before every workout. If planks and pushups are not a good match for you, this may not be your holy grail workout. However, if you can do them a few days a week, then you would be OK here.

You can preview a workout for $1.00 and have it for 24 hours, perhaps that would be a good option for you and you can see the entire thing and determine if it is a good match.

There is also a good deal of planks/down dogs/etc in the DCT section that follows the Tech Study...

Terri says that the workouts can be done in any order, they are not progressively harder per se, but she does introduced some more advanced elements in the tech study along the way, so in that way, the workouts get more challenging the more recent they are. I've done the beginning ones and the recent ones, I have not sampled the 4-8 series in the middle, and I don't really think the new ones are more difficult per se. She does introduce new moves in every single workout, though. That is to say they all have similar elements, but she seems to have an infinite way of putting them together so that each workout is unique. It's kind of interesting, actually.

One caveat is that Terri says she was still working out the sound issues in the 1 and 2 series, so you could skip ahead. Nat, our resident VF ART experts, recommends series 3 and 4, I think, as ones that have every aspect firing on all cylinders as far as the technical aspects, so you could start there and skip the sound issues.

Anywhere you start, prepared to be challenged in new and fun ways!
