Now I always work out online/using a DVD and the little habits some instructors have can be super irritating!

Denise Austin-I love your workouts please stop telling me that I'm 'burning butter' and why do you eyes always look like they are going to pop out of your head?

Jillian Michaels-please don't walk off and talk about squats whilst I'm doing them! I'm in so much pain and I want you to be too!

Billy Blanks people in the background I'm trying to concentrate,please refrain from constantly going 'hey hey hey' every minute,especially you blonde curly haired girl.

Oh and generally my butt being referred to as 'buns' just grates on me :laugh:

Please share! Vent your frustrations! :flowerforyou:

    Sagi from Beast Body is a kind of a jerk to the other people in the videos.

    He refers to himself, in the third person, as The Beast.

    Jillian Michaels, less talking and more working! I want her to feel the pain too!

    All workout DVD's in general- I'm sweating my *kitten* off and in pain, how the hell can they still be smiling throughout the whole workout?

    Definitely the fake smiles on their faces !
    Especially the blonde one on the Butt Bible, she creeps me out.

    Pet peeves .....

    Instructors who walk around instead of doing the workout .... (Jillian & Bob come to mind)

    Non-chaptered/or super basic DVDs .... if I buy a DVD I want OPTIONS. Music only ... or voice only .... gives me variety. Pre-mixes also give me variety .... helps DVDs stay fresh longer

    Too quiet music ... or horrible music. I'm not expecting great music ....that's really pricey

    Annoying backgrounders ....... I can't bring myself to do Turbo Jam ..... Chalene & her sister are great, but the backgrounders are obnoxious

    Tony Horton - I love the man and I love P90X but when he keeps saying "it's extreme..." I just want to punch him. Other than that, you learn to laugh at his stuff. P90X FTW!!

    Shaun T - "Dig Deeper." I am like Shaun, I AM, I CAN'T DIG ANY DEEPER. IF I DO, I WILL THROW UP. I love Shaun T though. I have been to Insanity live workouts. He's awesome!

    Insanity- Pure Cardio- Shaun T says (and I must mention stumbles his words a little) 'is anyone as nervous as me about what's to come up' LMFAO I don't know why but every time he says that I karate kick at my laptop. LOL weird but true. Just irritates me :laugh:

    I feel like Jillian Michaels is trying to make out with me through the tv, she has this manly perve kinda quality. At least on the 30 day shred. So annoying!!!

    And sadly, Pure Cardio is kind of one of the easiest DVD's in there. And by easiest, I mean "easiest..."

    Couldn't agree more about people looking so happy! I don't look like that when I workout :laugh:

    Leslie Sansone talks way too much,both her and Denise Austin kind of have that they could be your mums best friend kind of thing,especially when Denise referred to one of her workouts as our 'cardio house party'

    Seems like Jillian Michaels is a popular one! I want to kill her on 30ds,she's exactly the same on all of her dvds.

    In a recent article even Jillian Michaels admitted that she's annoying in her dvds lol

    She did one of her own and she commented, "I never shut up....SHUT UP" :laugh: :laugh:

    I'm pretty sure that when they make the DVD it's not in one continuous shot( could be wrong though), but actually take breaks and have their make up reapplied and time to rest.
