yeah, but she also reminded you during the hinge-row move and also during mountain climbers. How can you be lazy doing mountain climbers? She didn't bother me, though. I just did my thing and moved on to the next workout. I didn't know the workout with Alison had twists and pivots. I'm usually choreographically challenged but this was super easy to pick up on. I used an 8 lb dumbbell for the workout, but next time I'll use my 10 pound kettlebell.

I think I only noticed because it was mentioned here. What bugs me more is, "listen up" and "listen to me". I don't know why, but it grates on my nerves. It's one of the reasons I didn't like Stephanie's Powerfit Plus.
eta: I did both workouts from turbocharge yesterday, and I thought they were ok, not super challenging, so imagine my surprise when I woke up this morning to find my glutes and the left side of my back sore! |

Re: her "lazy" comments, I'm sure she's just trying to motivate while being cute. I think cuteness has always been her trump card (i.e. she's the Firm's 'cute tiny instructor'), but I don't think it's working for her. She would do better slowing down and being much, much calmer. I'm sure she's capable of radiating polished maturity, instead of that zany 'anime character' vibe she gives off. (She's not 18 any more, kwim?)

I don't care for these new Firm workouts. I feel like it's a very gimmicky structure and they were just trying to create a "system" like everyone these days. I'm hoping it's just a phase and they will go back to the longer form workouts. The pink Firms are among my very favorite workouts -they are 45 minutes long and generally intermediate workouts. If I'm feeling energetic I can add 10 or 20 minute segments from other workouts afterwards. I do Total Body Time Crunch and Pump, Jump and Jab at least once a week. Bring back the pinks!
