I don't understand having a registration deadline. ??? If you want to buy this, you have to do it in the next 10 days?

This will be the first of Jessica's programs that I am passing on, but I do really hope it is successful for her with a different target market.

In the program information it says you can cycle through the program as many times as you want. Does that mean once you pay for it, the program belongs to you and you can access it forever?

I believe so.

I have to admit, the $97 price made me think twice, and I'm a huge Jessica fan. But I will be buying it, because her workouts suit me so well. And if I own it forever, well as long as PP is around, it would be a good investment in the long run.

I'm not sure about the check-ins either. I have only enough emotional energy for one check in here and the FB Group! However, I am interested in what the support will be like.

I think you only have to do it starting March 15 if you want the one on one personal training from the check in group. I think you can do the workouts any time, similar to other PP digital purchases.

I think she made it streaming only (no download) in order to offer the money back guarantee. Which who knows if that will even work?

Also I noticed that the price has $197 crossed out with $97 as the current price. Is that to entice you to buy it in the next 2 weeks or risk a massive price hike?

Why are there no video previews of the workouts? Walk Strong 3 had a really nice series of previews of each video. And you got a lot more workouts for the price too. And they are only 30 minutes each.

So...I'm definitely passing on this one. I have Cathe's XTrain, STS, Pure Strength, Slow and Heavy, Pyramids, etc. Cathe also has nice timesaver options. I'm not sure that Jessica can really beat Cathe in strength training intensity, variety and premixes.

I’m good with digital, but the longer workouts are a definitely a con for me. I like the variety of stringing shorter workouts together. And $97 is a bit pricey for me after I convert it to Canadian $. So I’ll pass for now, but I’ll be curious to hear reviews from those who do buy it.

ETA: Wish all of the workouts were 40 min or less
Yes, once you buy the program, it is yours to keep. From her email: "Once purchased, the plan is yours to keep forever and you can start it at any time, but our goal is to be able to go through the program together as a community, beginning on Monday, March 15th."

I think I'm going to pass. There so many 12-week programs offered for free on Youtube by very good trainers (i.e., Caroline Girvan), I don't feel the need to spend $97 for something that's similar.

I love Jessica and have almost all her workout DVDs but I will revisit this program if/when it's available on DVD.

It's yours to keep as long as purple player is around. I'm sure that's not a real issue but I always feel I'd rather have it on my own USB stick than rely on a service staying in biz
