It just never ends....

This is why I am thrilled with youtube workouts. There are a ton of free sites with variety, levels and excellent instructors. It is endless. I signed up for commercial free so I am not bothered by ads. It has saved me a lot of money

I even buy non dvd recommendations from VFers. Lol.

I love the variety of DVDs and I love reading about VF experience with different rotations!

As of a year ago. I know what I like and what works and no longer pay attention to things that I won't use.

So why I am suddenly interested in Hammer & Chisel? Why can't I just keep doing ICE and continue with Barre3 and just be satisfied? Why do I always want more? I used to rotate Reebok step with Cindy Crawford's Shape your body over and over again....


Anyone satisfied with what they have and no longer acquire stuff?

We are on the same boat, Isebelle! I just started looking at H&C yesterday!

I thought making other people buy DVDs all the time was the sole reason of this forum. No?

Surely, you jest!

I did not work with me. You are going to have to try much harder.

Santosha is my phantom middle name. [That means "contentment" in Sanskrit, and it is a prescribed behavior for yogis ...]

That said, I am really getting a taste for variety with gaia. Given my history, though; I have not changed one bit (as of now). Behavior had been a different story, however. About 60% of it was ... I had not had the internet
transmission speed - and had no taste for DVDs; was a self-sequencer;
and did not care at the time. I'd still been in good shape.

40 years ago, when I had been a student in Colorado for a while, I had started to envy the looks of those women who could rock a short-sleeved peasant blouse (I am speaking purely in aesthetic terms; of course I know that any woman who wants to wear one can wear one!!). Now I am finally getting those long, stringy dancer's guns for myself. I credit newfound video-practicing and video-exercising "variety"—such as it is—for that.

I am slowly getting there. I may be burning myself out with this? I just expressed interest in Hammer & Chisel but came to my senses. I haven't purchased Ice. There are four or five brands I know I like -- basic tried & true workouts that I reach for over & over again. I'm trying to stick only to those brands in 2016 and ignore the rest rather than go on a no-buy challenge (which never works for me because trying not to buy workouts while hanging out at VF each day is like trying not to shop while hanging out in a mall each day).

The most effective no-buy is for me to stay away from VF altogether. Out of sight, out of mind. But then I"d miss my tribe.
