That's an awesome deal. I paid close to $70 on QVC with taxes and shipping. It's crazy!

It's a lightening deal on Amazon so will go quickly.

The disc is bad.

The disc is bad. I returned it for a full refund.

That explains the sale!

Thanks for the update. I'm glad I didn't jump at the lightning deal.

I did try one of the youtube Walk Run Lift videos with a regular band and it worked just fine. I like the faster pace of the walk but didn't get much out of the toning sections.

is it DVD-R? Scratched? Damaged from packaging? bad duplication? Just 1 disc or all 3 discs?

There is only one DVD that has all three workouts on it. I’ve purchased three sets and am happy with all three. There are a couple audio glitches- like Nick will be counting down from 4 and you don’t hear the 3 and the 2 - but I’m not sure what the deal is because sometimes they are there and sometimes they aren’t so I wonder if there’s an issue with my DVD player? On the 40 minute workout when there are about 9 minutes left in the workout, Nick is instructing with the band and for about a minute Nick is no longer on camera and you don’t hear him either although the music continues and there’s writing on the screen telling you what move you’re supposed to be doing which is what Rocky and the rest of the class are doing. In my mind I’ve decided the minute of missing Nick is because he has to run to the bathroom. 😆

lol.

i am a Nick fan, i have so many workouts (including MANY Leslies that are filmed and edited professionally), i have lots of equipment, and i'm undecided whether 90 minutes of content are worth $25.

Bzar - I only tried the 40-minute workout. Little more than half way through, the disc stated freezing and skipping.

Maybe not all the discs are bad. To be honest, I didn't love the workouts. The music drowned out the cueing - which was not good anyway.

I'd say the instructors are enthusiastic and personable, but not ready for prime time. Just my 2 cents!

I bought my set back in August and just tried the 20min workout. There are no no glitches on my disk in this 20min segment. I really liked the energy and throroughly enjoyed this walk. So far so good!

I'm hoping I'm this lucky too. I bought mine last month as well but haven't gotten around to trying or checking the disc.

Glad you were able to get a full refund, Alta!
