Default So what do you think of the music?

Am still waiting patiently for my set to arrive (will take a while to reach this part of the world) but am curious as to what you all think of the music in this series.

Everyone's taste in music is different, but for me, I really like the music in this series!

I especially like the CycleMax music!

I've previewed all but the yoga videos, and overall the music is okay to good*, except IMO for Trisets Upper Body, which I will have to use the music-off option for (or risk throwing a weight through my TV): continuous screetching guitar with no melody or rythm doesn't work for me, even as background.

*I have, however, been previewing on my computer, mostly at 1.2-1.4x regular speed, so reserve the option of changing my mind once I hear the music at regular speed. LOL!

Kathryn I did not like the music of trisets upper body either... I hope the music to the Lower body is different.

I really liked the cool down music from Cardio Supersets, it has a celtic whistle in there with a nice melodic line.

Default Not great.

I was wondering what others thought, too, but wasn't going to be the first to post about it. Much as I love this new series (AfterBurn just about killed me - in a good way), the music, in my opinion, is meh.The last series with Intensity and Lower Body Blast had knock-off songs with killer vocals and I found the time passing so quickly because the music was so engaging and inspiring. Not so this series, at least for me. I won't mute the music because it doesn't bug me that much, but I find it incredibly boring. I think it isn't up to Cathe's usual standards. I wish she'd gone with the company she used the last time, but I guess you can't have everything.

I like to love the music in everything but Trisets. The lower body segment is much better, using bass instead of regular, shrill guitar, but it still isn't the kind of music designed to fit with the moves. It's like the rock music they play in some gym weightrooms - just background music but too intrusive for my taste.

Default Motivating music!

I like the music in all of the programs in this series that I have tried (about 5 so far). I really liked the music in upper body TriSets and thought it reminded me of the music in STS program. To me, it was very motivating, great beat.
The cardio programs all have music that matches the exercise. It is all instrumental in the ones I have done so far, no vocals.
