my vote is going to jillian on the shred it with kettlebells... its a great workout but she never even seems to as much as pause on that one.. last time i did it i found my self several times saying shut up to the screen.... and it just really annoyed me lol.. I know some folks are gonna come stone me for saying that about jillian lol

i know also many will say tony horton on p90x, i guess i'm just used to him or maybe his corny jokes soften the blow he's inflicting..

anyhow nominate your candidates

    Tony can get pretty old, pretty quick. I found myself popping ear buds in with ipod going doing those dvd's.

    awesome workouts, but after 2 months, I was ready for something new in my ears.

    I personally can't stand woman front leaders...I find them so annoyin' and so fake.

    Tony Horton - is by far my favourite. I normally don't listen to his 'quotes' day after day - I'm to busy in my 'zone' while doin' my exercises.

    It will be interestin' to see who else makes this list :happy:

    Tony Horton...I can't stand listening to him. I find myself telling him to shove it...But I love the workout. Earbuds are a must!

    My vote would be Denise Austin, also. She sounds so fake and entirely too "happy!" Also, she never seems to sweat!

    My vote goes to Denise Austin, I have to mute her in order to do her workouts! Her voice is so irritating to me!

    lol I must be the opposite but I love tony - his dorkiness during the video helps me stick with it :)

    I didn't like billy blanks though

    Another vote for Denise Austin - but it's not her voice that gets to me, it's her eyes! I don't know why but I think they're creepy...

    Denise Austen. But then again, she was talking about plyometrics before Shaun T was even out of diapers. LOL (I used to do her pregnancy workout video. Very good.)

    Denise Austin - she is way to happy for me. I like some encouragement but she goes overboard!

    Jillian annoys the hell out of me! And I remember during p90x, I always found Tony Horton super annoying also, along with the red headed girl that was in kempo....no idea why lol but even though she never said anything, I always got super annoyed just watching her!
