Oh, I forgot one. Another best buy for me was Tracie's Figure 30 Hips. I love how it hits things and incorporates balance work. It's not the toughest workout there but does what it's meant to do.

I also bought Gwen Lawrence's Fit Body Yoga back in March and love that workout.

Best:

Kettlebell Kickboxing. I not only kept it, but imagine I will do another rotation again with it sometime.
Crave Results. I forget who traded this to me, but I owe then a big thanks!
Liquid Grooves. This workout makes me feel sooooo good!


Meh:

Cardio Quick Fix. I didn't love this like I hoped. But, I kept it and it may be what I reach for when I want simple cardio that makes me sweat that doesn't take too long.


Get it Outta Here!

Shape Power Burn Express. I really hated this workout.
HomeBody. It just didn't offer enough of any one thing to make it worth it.
Reboot, Vol. 1. I just did not click with this workout. It was a strong enough dislike that I had no desire to try Volume 2.

I am almost embarrassed by how many workout dvd's I bought this year. In my defense, the workout studio I loved closed, so I had to bump up my collection.

My favorites so far:
Brazil Butt Lift (I love the band work)
Cathe Low Impact Athletic Training
Les Mills Body Combat
Tracie Long Reboot 2
Cathe LI Total Body Trisets (I know the music is meh, but the workout is great)
Cathe High Step Challenge (love)
Cathe Drill Max
Cathe Kick Punch and Crunch (I know it's not new, but I just got it this year)
KCM TLC

Wastes:
CLX (just because I can't seem to make myself do it)
Cathe Cross Train Express and Timesaver (more that I haven't even tried)

I didn't buy much this year. The best was Les Mills Pump. Also Hour of Power. I don't think I bought anything else this past year. I am going to take another look at Fit Body Yoga after reading the above post.

Best-
Pop Physique all 3

I haven't purchased many DVDs this year, seems like last year was such a big year for barre releases. I can't think of any mistakes I've made.

I love these threads!

Best
TRX and TRX DVDs
P90X2 - I'm just about to start Phase 3 and have seen tremendous gains with this set
Sandbag

Jury still out
Cardio Karate - I've only tried two of these DVDs so far and couldn't really get into them

Duds
None - being selective has paid off
