Lately she seems to be having some sort of sale or free shipping offer every week. Maybe she and her husband lost a fortune in the stock market crash! I just missed out yesterday with a 15% sale. She also has a forum but it's very slow.
Body Electric website I've just started my second Margaret rotation. If you aren't very strong, I'd suggest the Unplugged Vol. 1 which is shot outdoors sans music. It's still tough but a bit less so than others. I have and like All My Best, The Classics and Sculpture. I plan to buy Getting Better when it's out on DVD and possibly Perfect 10. Buy whatever you like because you will always be able to swap it on the Video Exchange here.

Its been my experience that Margaret's older workouts are tougher. But as I'm sure you know you can always use lighter weights and do any of them anyway.
If you are unsure do visit her website and look at the chapters and exercises of each workout. It usually says if its standing or floor work, sitting or standing. They also list which exercises are included and how the exercises are chaptered and the time lengths. I and some other people have written reviews of Margaret's workouts in the VF Reviews section. Keep in mind that Margaret will be putting out in the future the remainder of her VHS titles onto DVD format. I believe that "Getting Better" will be next. I have no ETA on when. For me the toughest ones are: "Sculpture" & "Triple Threat". All of these I found to be good ones for different reasons: Sculpture ( indoors, tough) Triple Threat (outdoor scenery, tough and long) Beauty To The Bone (indoors) All My Best (variety mix of her workouts outdoors & indoors) Fitness Becomes You (two workouts outdoors and one indoors) Good N Strong (outdoor scenery much like her PBS TV show) Perfect 10 (indoors)

I am looking at ordering Sculpture (4/6 lower body segments are floorwork) and Triple Threat (no breakdown available - but I like the concept and outdoor setting) but am also interested in All My Best as 8/10 (2 quad, 2 hamstring, 2 gluteal, 1 inner thigh, 1 outer thigh) lower body segments are foorwork.
Can anyone list which workouts are pieced together to create the All My Best Vol I and II DVD? Either that or just a rough % of how much content is from Sculpture and Triple Threat. I want to avoid buying all three DVDs if much of it is repetative. Thank you in advance. I have been wanting to try Margret Richards for so long but have not had the pleasure yet. Deb |
