Yes Beth, most of Margaret's hour long, split workouts are arranged and chaptered in volumes and programs. Each program is 30 minutes and usually follows a split of upper body and abs for program A, then lower body for program B.

Her compilation and "best of" workouts are usually 25 minutes each and hit a variety of body parts, but are arranged so that if you do workout 1 and workout 2 on consecutive days you'll get a full body workout over the two days. Hope that makes sense!

Yes, that's perfect. I want to pull a rotation together of Margaret videos and Joyce Vedral paper workouts for variety, and I'll probably add on barre or CS.

For anyone who wishes they'd ordered DVDs on the weekend but didn't, Margaret is now offering a buy two DVDs, get one free sale now thru Sunday.

I wish she would have extended the 40% off. I would love to have Good For You.

So what did people order? I got: Good for You, Strong & Limber, My Body of Work Unplugged, & Fitness Becomes You, and at the last minute I added in Good 'n Strong (which I wasn't going to initially because of the length but now hearing more about it, I'm glad I did).

What's the main difference between Good for You and Good 'n Strong? I get confused between the two of them.

I'd like to know the differences between Good for You and Good 'n Strong too, from those who have seen both. I only know the basics - that Good for You is four 30-min programs vs. Good 'n Strong being two 60-min programs. And the different outdoor locations where they were filmed. When I saw the clip of Good for You at Collage Video it was number one on my list of DVDs I wanted to order this weekend. Not sure why - the shorter programs and proximity to water, I think. I'd love for anyone who has both to chime in with more info as it will likely be two weeks before they arrive on my doorstep.

Edited to add - The other noticeable difference in the clips is the music. I prefer the music on the Good for You clips. But all that said, it would be funny if I end up preferring Good 'n Strong!

Good 'n' Strong looks like the Unplugged series. Shot in her backyard by the creek. Two good, full body strength workouts.

Good for You was done a few years after (I think just after her divorce), shot at one of the Finger Lakes in NY State. I like that one because Margaret is more relaxed and chatty while killing you. Those triceps. Yikes! The standing hamstrings. Yikes! I think it's while she's doing biceps that she keeps looking off camera and says, "If I seem a little distracted it's because that cat just followed a squirrel up a tree. What's he going to do with him when he gets him?" I've done these workouts so many times I need to amuse myself!

I call this the Ricky Ricardo workout because it looks like it was shot at the Tropicana Club. I Love Lucy fans know what I mean!
