I just finished Bikini Bootcamp. This workout moves REALLY fast. I'm not used to moving at this kind of pace! It reminded me of Insanity in that way. One good thing, there is no downtime. You are really working the entire workout. I wore my heart rate monitor and got a good calorie burn. Other than a mat for the floor work, you don't need any equipment which I LOVE! The floor work has some moves that I haven't done before and it felt like I was working some areas that haven't been hit in a while. Since these workouts are a lot different that what I normally do, I'm hoping to see changes, esp in my legs. The instructor's voice was a little off-putting when I previewed this, but didn't bother me when I did the workout. As someone mentioned, the music is really in the background. Looking forward to trying the rest of these!

In all seriousness, though, I didn't seem to be experiencing any signs of overtraining. I was worried about getting burnt out on these, so I started Metamorphosis five weeks ago . . . and have lost most of the nice definition I had in my legs, abs, and arms from doing DB! I was going to hold off on doing them again until the new cardio ones came out, but all this talk of them makes me think that I'll pull them back out this weekend. |

I also walk on my in between days, I can't handle much else! I started out trying to do them 3x per week, but it was a bit much for me to handle. I've also tried splitting them up, which does work nicely. I haven't done a DB workout in a little over a week, but plan to get back to them, if only half at a time. There is just nothing else like them in my collection and I really do love them.

I think I have a plan to handle the instructor voice issue, plus the low volume music. After I get more used to the moves, I'm just going to start wearing my headphones with my own playlist. I think it would be fine for the Bikini Bootcamp one that I tried today - not sure about the other ones. Does anyone else do this? I imagine that with some good pumping music, these workouts will ROCK!!
