    I'm doing 30DS But I find her hillarious! The bit I loved most was...bearing in mind she only does like 2 seconds of anything before moving off to the two girls in the background and discussing their form...so she's stood over one of the girls and she says something like "Look at those abs, those are great abs! But you have to work for them..." My favourite bit, are you ready for it "I would do almost anything to have abs like those!"

    Seriously, either the 30DS doesn't live up to it's promise or...she's never actually done her own workout... *giggles* Liking the workout, finding her hilarious. I think you should view ALL workout DVDs with a pinch of salt though. Because they're not actually able to see you they can't help you if you're doing something wrong. It doesn't matter how much they show you, what you're doing and what you think you're doing don't always match up so unless you know and have done virtually everything on the dvds before it doesn't matter how well the DVDs do them, the truth is there's someone doing it wrong anyway.

    Honestly. I love her. LOVE HER LOVE HER LOVE HER. I have gotten amazing results from her products. I have tried SOOO many other programs but the only ones that seem to really work for me are hers. Yes, her personality comes off a little rough but I honestly think that is just a character made up for entertainment value. She has a good heart, she's done a lot of work in Haiti and just adopted a baby from there. Her heart seems in the right place. I absolutely love her and I'd love to meet her!

    But I just want to add why does it matter what is "in her heart"? It is impossible to really know. And regarding form: Her videos are awesome but I have bad knees and ankles so it was up to ME to modify. I was careful and I got great results from 30DS, BFBM, and Ripped in 30. Highly recommend.

    ETA another thing I like about her is she's only 5'2" and a straight or rectangle body type same as me. So I use her to inspire me in that way.
