Gin Miller

I was looking at Mary’s new products page and noticed that she had a bunch of Gin Miller workouts, including one that came out as recently as 2020.

I’ve never tried Gin but I know a lot of people love her. I’m curious for any thoughts. Are any of these worth checking out?

TIA

You can check them out on youtube. They should all be there under her own channel

her weights workouts are pretty straight forward.

Thanks for the reminder about new products...both Gin Miller and Natalie Jill had made the "going gone" page with some of these titles.

Good to see I may have another chance with some of these

Oh and Seriously strong is a great dvd.

Gin Miller is the mother of step aerobics! I recently garnered the courage to learn step after ~20 years as a vidiot and I do find Gin's YouTube channel invaluable.

Thank you guys for all the replies. I’m going to check out YouTube and see if there are any I may want to invest in. I’m always paranoid these things will be taken down one day

But the videos aren't pirated on YouTube. They're shared on Gin's own page.

It is one of the toughest workouts I have ever done, but Intense Moves is a great video. I am in complete awe of Gin's fitness in this one. I am always humbled after doing this workout, but it makes me feel like a bit of an athlete afterwards.

I think it is great that Gin offers her workouts on YouTube. Christi Taylor does the same with some of hers. Really, there can't be that much of a retail market for 20ish-year old workouts, no matter how amazing they still are, just given the current decline in DVD sales combined with the trend to streaming services, so it's not as though they are losing sales by doing so. (Wouldn't it be great if Greg Twombly did the same with the CIA catalogue?)
