So not alone. Mine may not be in the box, but I have quite a few with the shrink wrap still on. . I tell my husband "I have a problem". He just laughs.

No, you are SO not alone!! I have quite a few DVDs I have yet to do and Sets as well, (Les Mills Pump, Tapout XT, Drop 2 Dress Sizes, DeltaFit) and probably more than just them!!!

I do however take the shrink wrap off of them so my husband doesn't think they are new!

You're definitely not alone. I have at least 4 systems still sealed in the box......

This is why I have so few DVDs that I don't like.
Jeanne Marie, I think we're the only ones!

I do this too DH has accepted that I just "have to have" the newest workout and even gets excited for me when I get a new one. It does make him nuts when I don't do them though, so I always take off the shrink wrap.

I have this problem with yoga and Pilates DVDs. I always buy a bunch, especially on sale, convinced I am really going to get into yoga and Pilates. They probably collect the most dust.

I'm generally anxious to do new ones, but some I've bought after so much thought that even though I KNOW they're good ones, they're not quite the thing for my current rotation, so I let them stay unused for a while. I do test them first, to get a look at the disc, as others have said, just in case.

Also, just to see what sort of floor space I'll need.

I'm famous for starting a workout without preparing the space properly. Equipment, floor space side to side, floor space front to back, extra strong sports bra, every workout's different, and it's a good idea to know what you're in for ahead of time.

I'm forever doing 7 minutes of magic's PM segment without scooting things out of the way so I can do the spinal stretches at the end. Oops!
