Annoying Talker in my Workout Video

I know there have been serveral threads discussing this before but this morning after my ChaLean Extreme Lean Circuit, I felt I just have to rant~ :frown:

I found that 60 year old Donna gets on my nerves. She was already during the Push phase but she is much more in Lean phase...I know you are excited to be there and I see how good you look at your age but that fake cheering and motivating talking, seriously...

I can't mute the video because Chalene has lots of good tips and instructions that I don't want to miss...oh well...

done with my vent. now running away...:bigsmile:

    Oh my god I thought I was the only one. Donna makes me CRAZY. "Let's go guys, one more!" GAHHHHH STOP!
  • I've never seen these videos, but this thread tickles me and I can relate. I have a series of workout vids and the guy demonstrating the moves is such a dweebo. He makes the stupidest puns and just generally makes me roll my eyes and groan. It got so painful I couldn't bear to watch them anymore. Collecting dust.

    People complain about Tony (p90x) too. He doesn't bother me but I can only take him for around 80 days or so...But that Katie in his video...she's like a younger brunette Donna...on my god, I found myself skip that workout or cut it in half...

    I dreaded doing P90X every morning! Not bc it was incredibly difficult, but bc I dreaded hearing Tony talk.

    really? I don't mind Tony for a while but 90 days is bit too much. :)

    Jillian Michaels gets on my nerves during her videos. After you've heard the same spiel 7 days in a row you practically have it memorized. It's like, enough already!

    Leslie Sansone in her Walk Away The Pounds videos. She. Never. Stops. Talking.

    Yeah, Jillian Michaels gets on my nerves too, and Leslie Sansone is at least an order of magnitude worse.

    One thing I really love about Fitness Blender is that Daniel and Kelli's videos are all business - completely free of celebrity hype and obnoxious blather. And for me it's a plus that they aren't set to someone else's idea of music. My hearing isn't 100%, and while I can hear the constant chatter in many of the other videos, I often can't make out what people are saying over the music.

    I haven't done this one yet but I kinda feel she might be a tough person, like that Stacey London in "What not to wear" kind of personality? I could be wrong. LOL

    I complained about Donna in Chalene's video because she's not even an instructor. I wish she was as mute as other "students", like those ones in "Callanetics", who are basically smiling dolls. :tongue:
