Default Should I buy 4DS?

I have been looking at this one and have put it off. With the recent sale ending in mid april Im wondering if i need this one. I have Power Hour on back order (i hope), I have Gym Styles, Pyramid Body, S&H, STS Total Body, High Reps, Muscle Endurance/Bootcamp, Muscle Max, and The Terminator. I may have more but can't think right now. Soooo, do I need 4Ds as well? Do I?

I am also thinking of getting lowmax, circuit kicks and SPJ. Any thoughts on these? I base all my purchases, actually, on what everyone writes on this forum.

and lastly.... my husband doesn't know this yet, but i'm looking at buying the 36 disc STS series. any thoughts on that one???

I love weight training over anything - i mix it up but love heavy days a lot.
suggestions? thoughts? opinions.

thanks for responding. just one last question - is 4DS for heavier lifting or is it high reps with moderate weights - if you know.

i really am thinking of getting STS - just don't know how to break it to my husband. he thinks i already have too many cathe dvd's. but then he thinks i have too many shoes and boots as well. hmmmm.

really, STS is very well worth it. I got it on the presale & have done the program several times through. it is everything you need in a comprehensive strength training program, very well thought through. your husband could do this with you, too! i usually do the program full thru 2x a yr and probably will for as long as I can.

4DS...I'm still previewing it a lot & not doing the weight workouts yet since I'm doing STS m3 right now, but it looks like pretty heavy weight, not a lot of rest & then some band work for the last round. the concept is you get abt 30 mins cardio & 30 mins of weights in a workout, but of course that is the beauty of the premixes. it makes it so versatile.

I think once I'm done w/ STS I will try one week doing the 4DS traditional, but I'm sure I'll be doing mostly premixes of this one. the music is great & the combos looks so fun! i'm not as enthusiastic normally abt step, but this really looks fun!

4DS is SOOO much fun!! The step routines are fantastic and the music is awaesome! As mentioned, there are lots of premixes. I do it at least once a week.

I have STS, but haven't started it yet. I have previewed the discs and the series looks phenomenal!

If you can, I would suggest to get BOTH.

thank you both so much! i looked at my husband through the glass shower door this morning and said "i have to tell you something". Then I did the whole you'll use it too pitch. so... i think im gonna get 'em both plus circuit max and low max and SPJ then I'm done. that's it. no more cathe. 'til she brings out more stuff i mean. but i told him that's it. no more cathe. i'll have all that i need. (for now).
