We'll always have video fitness (and Video Fitness, I hope )...however you get your video content!

I am actually enjoying a little hype.....I'm anxiously looking forward to Ellen's new "Ballet Sculpt" on her streaming. Essentrics also has been posting teasers on Instagram....showing photos of new workouts and behind the scenes stuff.
Like anything...it's change. I think it's ok though. Nothing we can do about it so may as well embrace it. I don't think that all the streaming is necessarily poor quality. I love what Essentrics and Ellen Barrett are doing and think it's just as good as the dvds they have produced or even better. You can't compare free YouTube content to professionally filmed and edited workouts...streaming or not.

new releases let us do the workouts together
The thing I really enjoyed about new DVDs coming out is how so many people would do them together when they were shipped. So you could talk about the workout that you were doing and there would be a lively discussion with many people and opinions, and ideas on how to use it. All the comments were immediately relevant to the workout I was doing that day.
That’s why I enjoy challenges or check ins where people are doing the same program, or the same DVD, at the same time. It’s really fun that someone shared what you did that day, and really “gets” how you stumbled changing weights at that one particular time, or how one of the backgrounders made you giggle. I only know a few people IRL who can relate. When I’m about to start a new set or DVD, I also read old threads about it to get myself psyched up to do it. It makes it fun to shop in, and get re-excited about, my collection. What I won’t miss is wading through the “New DVDS coming out” thread, pages and pages of “did you get it yet, where’s mine, did you get it yet?” to get to the first reviews. |

Or perhaps of timing, when the DVDs come out people on the forum (even if less) are excited about the same DVDs at the same time. Like when Cathe LITE just came out, a bunch of people were doing those at the same time. It was fun to read new posts on what I was excited about at that time too.
