This is the first series I'm not going to pre-order, but will wait for reviews and pick and choose!
I'm most excited about for the floor work dvd! I agree also that sometimes low impact is not joint friendly. I was excited when Low Max came out only to find that it bothered my knee with all the lunge/squat moves off the step. I'm hoping for just in general some different choreography. I'm also hoping for less going down to the floor for pushup combos during a workout. I also hope she doesn't "talk down" to an "intermediate" audience. I never even thought about this before, but can definitely see this as a possibility. I've never really noticed the off-the-beat aspect though even when she says "ignore the beat", I'm always like um, okay! I'm usually modifying and not keeping up anyways and the music is usually quiet and fairly non-descript anyways that I've never really even noticed the beat. So, that being said, I'd love some great music for once! Something similar to what Michelle Dozois uses or even Tracy Anderson in some of her workouts. |

I agree that intermediate means no more than 15 lb dumbells, but it also means more than 3 lb ones.

The only cardio workout I can think of in which she goes off beat is the floor based hiit one in RWH. Are there others? |

Thank you for saying this. I knew I couldn't be the only one who was annoyed by the constant mantra of "Ignore the beat." If she has to say anything, how about "Off tempo" or "On tempo." It sounds much nicer. I love her workouts so much, that I trained myself to ignore the phrase "Ignore the beat." Even during some strength training segments she says this. How many people out there are lifting heavy weights in time to a beat? Just thinking about this makes me question if I should preorder her newest DVDs. Who am I kidding? I know I will.
