And the award for most-annoying backgrounder goes to....

I just picked up and previewed Bob Harper's "Pure Burn Super Strength" workout. Looks mostly good, with a few cons, the biggest one being one of the backgrounders (the modifier, who unfortunately gets lots of screen time) who is SO over-the-top in her facial expressions showing 'this is tough' I'd like to put her out of her misery (permanently!).

She makes these odd 'fish-face' round-mouthed grimaces of pain, that look like she's either being tortured, or giving birth to triplets. In all the hundreds of workouts I've seen over the years, I can't remember anyone so annoying (the '*I* did 10" chick in P90X was annoying, but she's a 7 on a scale of 10 compared to this one who's a 10!)

Unfortunatley, she's on the right side of the screen, which happens to be where I tend to look more (am I 'right eyed"?). Definitely will have to find a way to tune her out.
