I am just wondering why there has to be commericals in between the workouts. I feel once I get my heart rate up there is a commerical! I enjoy the type of workout that doesn't have commericals and go straight through! I enjoy the workouts but was wondering why you have to have commericals?!?!

I'm with you......especially the commercial for NutriSystem that advertises a young lady getting into a size 2. I think it's terrible to promote such non-typical, unhealthy results.

I think its hilarious that a fitness channel would allow commercials that tell you to take a pill to lose weight. Don't workout, just take this pill. Wouldn't it be better to allow a show to go all the way through then throw in commercials in between programs. Time would still be allocated the same to the commercials but then everyone gets through a workout w/o waiting 3 min.

I just started doing Tom's workout a week ago. It seems like a good one-I sweat alot more than my previous workout. But the commercials ruin my workout. Even with my DVR, where I can fast forward, I am left standing there with my heartrate slowing. I feel like I'm cheating my body out of a good workout. With my previous workout I moved for 50 minutes, this one doesn't last that long. Do you think Tom's workout is something I should stick to?

I agree the commercials totally ruin the workout. I realize TV networks need to run commericals but maybe in a half hour time slot they could run the 20 min workout non stop and then do 10 min of commercials. Then start the next show.
