I think I should add that if I had kept every single exercise video I ever bought, starting with that first Callanetics tape in the 80s, I would probably have 1000s, but I regularly divest myself of workouts I haven't done in ages or believe I will never do again (only to reacquire some later).

Probably 60 since the "rule" seems to be that sets only count as 1!!

I used to have lots more but have been thinning them out; been in de-clutter mode since retiring. I'm hesitant these days to try new instructors so don't buy nearly as many as I used to.

I didn't know the rule. I counted each DVD as one, although some DVDs have multiple workouts: I didn't count those separately.

I have a lot of dvds which I do not want to count like Janice and Sue.

It is strange for me that the dvd I decided to do I sometimes overlook so I cannot find or I manage to do 4 or 5 parts of different dvds.

At the moment I am too sick to workout so I miss it so much so I tend to watch what I can do when I am better. All my energy is needed to let by body fight till is better.

Ah heck no. I myself am counting actual physical DVDs, not the set as just one dvd.

I’d never count the STS set as one. I got like 30 discs alone in that set!

I have 300+

I could easily get rid of some of them that I haven't done in years, but since I have the space I keep them. Someday we'll downsize and I'll probably have to let some go...

Yes, me too! I don't know the count yet but I'll try to remember to post back after I spend a week reorganizing! I can't tell from my spreadsheet bc it lists all workouts, not just DVDs. I broke down DVDs/VHS that have multiple workouts so I can see every workout.

I hope you feel better soon. Off to count my DVDs....

I have 95 but 6 of those are on the trade/sell/ gift pile. Two are trades in progress. I rarely do most of my DVDs at this point so I am slowly going through them to see what I can part with.

Haha there is no telling how long it would take me! Maybe I'd be willing if we got snowed in or something.

Honestly, it gets confusing when you have compilation DVDs that used to be individually sold workouts, etc. Do you count it as one, etc
..

I applaud your efforts, Patti!
