What is the general consensus of Hammer & Chisel?

This was not on my radar but you know how the enable factor works here

I'm thinking of ordering this now. Autumn is NOT my favorite instructor. I have 21DF & 21DFX and I hardly reach for them. I should trade or sell them. Love Sagi

Should I bite the bullet and order the set?

Yes, you should "cave." H+C is an excellent set. All of the workouts are good. Autumn was also not a favorite of mine in 21 DF and 21DFX but I like her in H+C. She is more low key and encouraging. I am a bit biased when it comes to Sagi. I loved Body Beast and have done all of the BB workouts many times. Sagi is excellent in this series. The H+C workouts are well thoughtout, structured well and for me there is no dread factor. One of the things that I really like about H+C is that it is versatile. You can do a rotation or mix and match them with other workouts and they would still be effective. The only thing that I would say is a very mild "con" is that (at least for me), I need a longer stretch session after "heavy lifting and the stretch in some of the H+C workouts can be skimpy, so I do my own. You can make these workouts tougher by using heavier weights, doing the more advanced option or one can tone it down by using lighter weights, modifying some of the jumping/ plyo, putting a leg down in the balancing moves, etc. I usually do not do a strict series rotations but I like H+C enough that I am considering doing a rotation of H+C . I am sure that H+C will be one of my best fitness purchases of 2016.

I just started the rotation & I'm 3 days in. Love everything so far & my backside is feeling it! Pistol squats, deadlifts, love it all!

I'm loving it. Very happy I bought the set. So far every workout in the set is a winner.

Today was day 3 for me and I'm really glad I got this set. No dread so far and I'm lifting heavy again. After months of being inactive, I now look forward to my workouts....
