    I danced in high school and have been wanting to try a Pure Barre class near me. I’m a college student and can’t afford the classes, so i’ve been wanting to try either PB dvds or The Bar Method’s! This would help me achieve my resolution to build strength in a way I enjoy.

    I would love to try The Bar Method this year! I’m starting to become a little bored with my workouts, so this would be a great workout to shake things up a bit! Thanks for the helpful reviews!

  9. Bethany says:

    I’ve been focusing so much on my running, I really want to focus on flexibility and strength. I have been looking into pilates, Ballet, yoga, and lifting. I think I will try them all, and see which one or more fit me best.

  20. Amy Tolbert says:

    Would love to try this workout. I am getting ready to start the Insanity workout with my daughter. The bar method sounds like more fun.

  21. I would love the bar method to kickstart my loss of these college pounds. I yo-yo’d in wieght
    For four years and it is time for a change. I set a goal of 20 lbs to start for myself. It’s attainable for me. I will be graduating this spring so, I have to come off of some pounds anywho but, not giving up my curves though.

    Well, it’s not technically an organized workout but I really want to try rock climbing this year! Our YMCA just opened a new facility with a climbing wall so it’ll be so convenient now to try it!!

  28. Christy says:

    I just tried the Bar and it was awesome! But this year I am going to try hot yoga. Ideally I would like to do CrossFit, but I can’t find an affordable location yet.

  29. Laura says:

    I need to get my act together and actually use my TurboFire dvds.

  30. LIse says:

    I am a Pilates instructor and love the combo of pilates moves in many of the bar classes – a great addition to any workout. It would make my legs stronger for my new fun passion – pole dancing!

  31. Verhanika Wood says:

    I want to try more workouts that are strength and cardio combined so I don’t burn out on one or the other.

  32. Emily says:

    I’d love to try bar method and a dance class. I am so not graceful and want to learn how to move!

  38. April B says:

    I would love to try Bar. And pilates. 🙂 I know that is so last year (or longer), but I currently do crossfit type workouts, kettlebells, and bootcamps, so something different sounds fun!

  39. Michelle Berberovich says:

    I want to try the bar method so so so bad! I have heard so many people say they love the results!

  40. Missy says:

    Patrick Goudeau’s Extreme Calorie Burn dvd

  41. Carrie says:

    The one workout I’ve been wanting to try in 2012 is the barre method. I used to dance when I was younger and I miss it dearly. This would be the greatest prize for me so that I could start reliving my youth!

  42. Megan says:

    I would love to try more entire-body workouts (bar, TRX, rock climbing) this year to balance my running 🙂

  43. Kiki says:

  44. Rose says:

    I’m looking forward to trying a live Bar Method class next month!

  45. Erica says:

    Wow, I didn’t know a workout like this existed! I would love to sprinkle a workout like this into my running routine to strengthen up some of my muscles and to use others that I don’t use while running.

  46. Laura Harms says:

    I’ve heard a lot about The Bar Method workouts, but never had the chance to do one. I’d love to give it a go! I’m also going to throw a couple triathlons into my mix of endurance events, so swimming will be new to me!

  47. Aubrey S says:

    Oh next year, I finally want to take myself to a Zumba class to see what it’s all about.

  48. jeanine says:

    I have other ballet-inspired workouts that I love so this would be a welcome addition.

  49. Julia Haeger says:

    Standing up pilates? Bring it on!!

  50. i will try ANYTHING to drop this flab and get my body back, running alone is NOT enough….i want to look great to run my scheduled half marathon in April…HELP ME OUT HERE!!! I have chair backs and a willingness to learn

    Karrie

  51. Kristine says:

    I have been trying to start my marathon training, but have been plagued with knee and foot issues and I think it’s because I have been slightly negligent in my cross training. I hate weight lifting, but I did dance for years and years as a kid and into college, but have neglected it since marriage and kids came along. I would LOVE to have a great toning regimen that I can use at home that reminds me of the “good old days”! Plus, I’d love to have the legs back that I had back then!! 🙂

  52. Rachel says:

    I have been wanting to try the Bar Method DVDs for a while. Pilates saved my running so I would love to try it!

  53. Kerry Lee Haas says:

    I never even thought about ballet as an at home workout, but duh. Ballerinas have awesome muscular legs. I bet this dvd series would give a serious burn in legs and booty the next day. Would love to try the bar method out. 🙂

  54. Bien says:

    In 2012, I am going to try crossfit & TRX!

  55. Amanda says:

    I want to try kettle bells and bar method in 2012. This is the year I’m going to reach my goal and get in shape.

  56. Meredith says:

    I want to try sinning in 2012! And keep up with my ballet sculpt classes!!

  57. rachel says:

    i started up again with personal training for fat blasting! I would really like to get in to more yoga and muscle lengthening moves so The Bar Method sounds great. I took adult beginner ballet in college at a dance studio and wish I would have stuck with it. Happy 2012 FBG!

  58. Rebecca says:

    There are a bunch of Bar Method “rip-offs” here in Chicago, I really want to try the “real deal.” I’m just a little intimidated by it! I also want to try the Real Ryder spin workouts that also work your abs – FUN. And more yoga…. working on the mind-body connection (does Bar Method help with that?)

  59. Pearl says:

    Would like to try the pure barre method and Physique 57!

  60. Pearl says:

    Would like to try the bar method and Physique 57!

  61. Tina says:

    I’d love to try Trx training. It looks like it kicks butt!

  62. Julie says:

    I just committed to joining a small-fitness training group that meets twice a week. Otherwise I workout at home in the winter and run in the spring/summer/fall. I’m always looking for new workout DVDs!

  63. Cat says:

    This looks like an interesting workout. I’d also like to try pilates, and just started going to a cardio kickboxing class one night a week which is fun and killer!

  64. sherri says:

    I was in marching band (color-guard ) in high school, and i was the fittest i have ever been. After having two kids and a hysterectomy at 25, i have tried many different things to get that old body back, without taking dance classes at 26… i would love to give this a try because it incorporated everything i did in color-guard 9 years ago.. Come spring i am also increasing the distance that i run, and shoot for my 5k to be under 30 minutes.

  65. Laura says:

    Help! I need to loose 50 pounds this year and this would so totally help.

  66. Sarah says:

    I just started spin and I love it! I can’t wait to try the Brazilian Butt workout

  67. BK says:

    Would like to try kickboxing class or a Kundalini yoga class

  68. Kelly Hargett says:

    I thin this would be a great new workout to try in 2012! I’d love to win it and mix up my routine soon.

  69. Sofia says:

    I’d really love to try The Bar Method, because I want to get a handle on getting rid of my love handles and I want to bar my muffin top from spilling over.

  70. Andrea says:

    I just started the Firm a few weeks ago. I absolutely love it, and working out at home, but I’ve heard from a lot of people that they love Barre method classes, Bar videos, etc. We don’t have any fitness studios nearby who do Barre method, so this set would be perfect for this Princess from Podunk! 🙂

    (And…my 2 year old and 4 year old can get in on the workout action with me! Win-win!)

  71. Callie says:

    I am looking forward to trying Barre Sculpt and Piloxing!

  72. Stephanie says:

    I love dance style work outs ! Zumba,belly dance,hip hop cardio! I have never tried Bar Method style of workout but,but since it incorporates aspects of dance,I am thinking I would like it !

  73. Michelle Thayer says:

    I’ve read your reviews on the bar method and it definitely looks interesting. I would give anything to have a dancer’s long and lean body. I don’t know if this DVD could help but I’d be willing to give it a shot!

  74. Tina says:

    I’d really like to try yoga. Until now, I thought that I wouldn’t be able to calm my mind enough to just let go and do it.

  75. Valerie says:

    I would love to try crossfire wod. As well as rock climbing, as my husband is really into it!

  76. Npapaya says:

  77. Amber Walker says:

    I do a bit of running, but i’d like to incorporate more strength training into my routine to help me become an even better runner!

  78. Amanda says:

    I haven’t danced ballet since I was 16, about 60 lbs ago. Would love to get back into something I enjoyed so much while being able to get in better shape at the same time!

  79. jolie says:

    I would love to try the Bar Method DVDs. Love any dance/ballet style inspired workouts : )

  80. Stephanie says:

    In 2012 I would LOVE to do a TRI! I love biking, I used to be a good swimmer and I am an awful runner but I love the idea of all three together! I am not going Ironman from the start, maybe a mini-tri first and perhaps the fever will take hold!

  81. Ashley says:

    Amazing giveaway!! In 2012 I would like to try some more kick boxing workouts… thanks so much for the chance to win!

  82. lisa says:

    would love to try

  83. Jennifer says:

    Right now I just go to the gym and run on the treadmill and do a little lifting. If I am unable to get to the gym then I do some workout video’s at home. I would love to try Bar Method and mix up my routine!

  84. Mandy says:

    Thanks for the opportunity! This is embarrassing to admit, but my goal this year is to go to spinning class. I love biking outdoors but have never been able to get to the gym for an indoor workout.

  85. Evangelene says:

    I definitely want to go back to Bar Method, but because classes are pricey, I’d love the DVD’s and accessories. Someone put a bug in my ear to do the Survivor Mud Run, so it’s on my “to do” list.

  86. Marissa says:

    I would really like to take a hula hoop class! I’m finally getting back to kick boxing which I love and a once a week yoga class to calm down my mind from all that agressive kicking/punching!

  87. Deborah says:

    I just want to make through the entire 30 day shred!!
    But seriously, winning this would be awesome!!

  88. MJ says:

    I LOVE the Bar Method! I’m eager to get started with it again, but after having my second child I need to start a routine targeting my diastasis recti…

  89. Dawn says:

    I am always looking for new ways to workout during the cold winter months! Last year I bought a mix of DVDs (Bob, Jackie, and Jillian).

  90. Penny Kuntzman says:

    I would love to have these and if you saw my rear you would’nt hestitate! 🙂
    I am on a quest to heal from the inside out and these would be greatly appreciated!!!

  91. Karenann says:

    I’m really excited about the bar workouts. I am a runner and love to lift weights so I’m hoping the bar workout will give me a really nice balance.

  92. holly says:

    I would like to start running again, I have knee issues but hoping to work through them. Also want to do pilates and yoga more consistently instead of occasionally.

  93. Lauren says:

    I want to learn more about HIIT and am really excited about trying kettlebells…

  97. Lisa says:

    My new workouts for this year actually include a bar! I just purchased one, so different levels of workouts on the bar would be great! I am also training for the several mud runs coming to my area this year, so running endurance and gaining lean muscle are my goals! Can’t wait to start w/ the bar!

  98. Nikole says:

    Obviously the Bar Method would be one to try this year!

  99. Ivori says:

    I have been hearing a lot about Bikram Choudhury aka Hot Yoga. I want to try it out, but LADIES, I would LOVE to win this giveaway !

  100. Katie B says:

  106. Courtney says:

    Now that I know more about the Bar Method of course I would like to try it in 2012!

    Another workout I’ve wanted to try for a while is called Punk Rope–it’s advertised as “Recess meets bootcamp” and the only equipment needed is a good quality jump rope. Punk Rope isn’t available where I live, but I’ve actually considered going to NYC, where it originated, on vacation to take class with the guy who designed it (I’ve heard that he often wears a kilt while Punk Roping).

  107. Maya says:

    I would love to try CrossFit!

  108. Kaycye Corley says:

    I want a workout that can save my life! I’m tired of laying in bed depressed. My girls just want their mom back.

  114. Casey says:

    I would love to try the Bar method! Would also love to try cross fit, but unfortunately I live in a small town, so I’m lacking the resources!

  115. emily says:

    I used to dance in high school and this would be a great way to get those dancers legs back! Bring it on!

    I would love to try Barre method with these DVDs. There is actually a gym nearby that offers these classes, but I’m kind of intimidated! I’d also like to try Zumba.

  124. Jeanna says:

    I would definitely like to try Zumba. Also this Bar Method looks interesting as I used to be in ballet a long, long time ago.

  125. Molly says:

    There’s so much I would love to try! I think Zumba would be good after having my first baby (due in July!!) to feel sexy again. It looks like fun and there are classes popping up all over the place so it makes it easier to stay close to home for a quick workout. 🙂

  126. Natalie says:

    I used to dance when I was younger, so the bar method would be great! Other than that, I will try anything to lose fat! Seems to be quite challenging to lose fat, not weight, since I don’t need to lose any weight…wish me luck! 😉

  127. Buster says:

    I am trying now supreme 90 but I would also like to try something for flexibility, leaner muscles so I would love to try the Barre Method

  136. Bonnie Strong says:

    Pole Dancing! I’ve been trying to get up the nerve for two years now… I’m afraid I’ll miss the boat if I wait much longer and it won’t be easily accessible in my city anymore. I’ve been purposely trying to increase upper body strength for it. now I just have to increase my confidence!

  137. Sharon says:

    I’ve wanted to try the Barre Method (really!)and TRX training in 2012.

  146. Debbie says:

    I have been doing Classical Stretch which borrows from Tai Chi and that’s what I’d like to learn more about. It definitely requires patience to learn the moves.

  147. jodie says:

    TRX for sure.

  148. Amy Morris says:

    I want to try Barre method – for sure!!!

  149. Tara says:

  151. I don’t want to try an actual workout necessarily but I do want to work on doing some pull ups.

  152. Elaine says:

    I workout at home, so any new ideas or products could really give this workout a needed jolt! I was the biggest ballet dancer as a child and would love to see this make a come back. It was killer on the legs!

  153. Julie says:

    I just bought a Groupon for 4 weeks of sessions at a local Crossfit gym. I am really excited to try those workouts for the first time – I’m sure it’s really going to challenge my body in new ways!

  154. Jenny says:

    I’ve been strength training for the past few months, but I really wanted to get back in to yoga/pilates/barre training. My body tends to respond better to low weight/no weight resistance exercises!

  155. Kristi says:

    My 2012 fitness goals include getting back into yoga/pilates. I work out at home so this would work very well for. I took ballet as a child. Being at a barre brings back fond memories!

  156. Linny says:

    I would love to try pilates. Thanks!

  157. Trena says:

    Would love to try the Bar Method and I am going back to yoga and pilates too! But everyone always need to do strength conditioning. Very important.

  158. Lee says:

    I would like the Bar Method this year!

  159. I am very intrigued by Cross Fit, but not sure with a new baby I can undertake the time commitment.

  160. I have two friends from Boston that have been living the barre lifestyle for 8 months or so now, and have seen AMAZING results. Unfortunately, here where I live, there are no barre studios around. I’ve been dying to try try barre method workouts for so long, and I’d be OVER-THE-TOP excited if I won this!!

  161. Amy says:

    I’m REALLY wanting is to try one of those stripper pole classes! Hopefully I cam find a Groupon for it soon!! My semi-mother-in law has a gorgeous body and credits it to Barre, so I’m really intrigued! The investment was a bit steep for a grad student like me.

  162. Maurini says:

    I took bar classes at a local studio years ago and they were one of the best workouts I ever had. This year I hope to give Zumba a try!

  163. Patricia says:

    I workout all the time running, cycling, dancing Zumba, boot camp, or kickboxing. I want to work on running faster so that I can improve the amount of time it takes me to run my miles.

  164. Isha says:

    The workout I want to try in 2012 is Pilates. I’ve heard it is really similar to yoga (which I love!), so why not Pilates? Also, I want to build endurance while running!

  165. rebecca says:

    I want to try Zumba in 2012!

  166. SinnerElla says:

    I want to try a number of new things this year. I would LOVE to try a Barre class. Groupon had an offer for a studio in my area, but I can’t afford it right now. I also would LOVE to snag a rental copy or borrow a P90X from someone to try this year (SOON!) and I will be trying another exotic fitness class too. Really looking forward to it.

  167. Tere says:

    Some new at-home DVD workouts, so far I’ve been looking at dancing, but The Bar Method sounds great!

  168. Jen says:

    I would love to try Zumba or a step class again.

  169. MaryAnne Erickson says:

    OOOH I love to try new workouts and share them with my workout buddies.

  170. oh, that looks so fun! definitely a new way to tone up and shake up my home workouts!

  171. Denise M says:

    My goal is to do more yoga and pilates this year! Would love to try The Bar Method!

  172. Kelsea Gusk says:

    yoga, running, and hopefully the bar method!

  173. Linda Kish says:

    Besides the bar method, I’d like to start some strength training.

  174. Jacqueline says:

    My goal in 2012 is to lose another 30 pounds and gain a toned body. I’ve seen great reviews on barre-style workouts and would love to try and get that dancer’s body.

  175. Andrea says:

    I’ve been doing yoga and barre-style classes for a while now, but I would also like to add in some Pilates to get my core strength to improve.

  176. Jenni J says:

    I signed up for some classes at the university, I’m really excited at taking both the yogalates and zumba classes. I figure I should be pretty good at zumba, with all the quinceñeras I went to in my youth. LOL.

  177. Susan Fine says:

    Consistently do yoga and more strength training.

  178. Crittle says:

    I’d like to start running again. And maybe work up the courage to try one of those sexy pole/chair dancing classes

  179. Essbee says:

    I recently met a Bar Method instructor who was really inspiring to try it, but I got busy and never got around to it. This would be great to try, and then she and I would have more to talk about!

  180. Saira says:

    I’d love to incorporate more strength training, but functional moves like squats with overhead presses versus machines.

  181. Terry F. says:

    I would love to try the Bar Method, it sounds like a great workout and a great opportunity to try a new workout and get a good start to a workout plan. Thanks.

  182. Kelley says:

    I’ve heard of the Bar Method and have always wanted to experience it. Will I be one of the lucky 3?!

  183. Jody M says:

    This Bar workout looks interesting. Also, I may be one of the few who hasn’t tried Zumba.

  184. Stephanie B. says:

    This looks great! I really wanna start getting into yoga this year after hearing about all the benefits.

  185. Carolyn says:

    I plan on attending zumba more regularly.

  186. Sylvia says:

    Im excited to try a pole fitness class. It will be fun, but the muscles you develop are serious!

  187. Molly says:

    That’s amazing!! I love various forms of fitness. Dancer’s have great bodies!

  188. Lisle says:

    Oh, I’d love to try that! I always love a new workout. I’ve been doing Nia, and plan to attend 4 days a week this year!

  189. Krista says:

    I want to try the brazil butt workout. It looks like it would be pretty good!

  190. Iris Lee says:

    I want to try the Bar Method!

  191. Kim L. says:

    I would love to try this. I want to try and combine all sorts of new things to keep workouts fun and fresh! thanks

  192. Monica says:

    I would love to try this workout! I’ve been trying to do some ballet-type exercises but I really need a whole video to get the best benefits. What a great giveaway!

  193. Penny says:

    If you saw my rear you would’nt hesitate to give me these! LOL 🙂
    I am on a quest to not only lose weight and become fit and healthy, but to lose all of the inner turmoil and baggage that i have been collecting for so many years. I am working from the inside out and it would certainly be a boost to win this grab bag. I love exercise dvds and finding inspiration on forums such as this.

  194. Cathy says:

    This year i’m doing at least 2 triathlon sprints. Swimming class starts tomorrow!!

  195. Nicole says:

    I got a new Jackie Warner workout for Christmas. I have yet to try it, but that is what I would like to try this year!

  196. Hollie says:

    I got the new Zumba 2 for Wii and can’t wait to try it out:)

  197. Terra says:

    I want to start doing many different types of workouts. I run 5 days a week and would like to insert new and fun workouts for my “rest” days as well as for additional activity on the days that I do run. I’m looking for variety to keep me motivated.

  198. Jeanne says:

    I would love to try this workout. I learned about it on Twitter from Ricki Lake tweeting about it. I hope I can take a live class soon since I just found out there’s a place about an hour from me that teaches Bar Method. In the meantime, it would be great to learn it on the dvd’s!

  199. Emily says:

    I want to try a few new things this year, mostly so I don’t get in a rut or lose interest!

  200. Stephanie says:

    My goal this year is to balance my cardio workouts with more pilates/yoga workouts.

  201. Carli says:

    I JUST tried Bar Method for the first time yesterday….and I am looking forward to more!

  202. Jenn says:

    Ballet, and definitely the Bar Method! I, like a million other little girls, always dreamed of being a ballerina (without having taken a single ballet class). This will make exercising fun again!

  203. Sarah says:

    Bar Method sounds interesting, I’ve always admired those dancer legs!

  204. Victoria says:

    This sounds like so much fun!

  205. Believe it or not, I once had a fortune teller tell me she saw me losing weight by working out on a ballet bar. This must be it! LOL

  206. Michelle H says:

    I’ve been wanting to try a bar type class. This would be much more cost effective than the pure barre studio!

  207. Debbie says:

    What timing! I’ve been considering buying the Bar Method DVDs & came to your site to see if you had reviewed them.

  208. alh1203 says:

    WOW, THIS LOOKS AMAZING!

  209. Eugenie says:

    I want to try the Bar Method workout.

  210. Lee says:

    Yoga and the Bar method are two things that I want to try.

  211. lpn09 says:

    I’m actually dying to try any of the dancer themed workouts–like the Bar Method, or Core Fusion!

  212. Glenda L says:

    Who doesn’t want a dancer’s body?! Sign me up.

  213. Laura says:

    I love ballet (took it for 12 years growing up), but have never taken a Pure Barre class – this sounds awesome!

  214. Lindsay says:

    I’m excited about the dance-themed workouts this year. This is perfect!

  215. Kate says:

    I have tried lots of the bar classes and I like the Refine Method because it combines sculpting and cardio. In the New Year I would like to try the new surfboard classes at Chelsea Piers!

  216. Lisa says:

    I should be getting my new bar this week! Yea! Need some DVDs to help me get into awesome shape!

  217. Tawni says:

    the Barre workout sounds like fun! Right now I am spinning on the ergo trainer and lifting heavier weights…I am losing inches YAY! In the past I have lifted lights weights with lots of reps, but I am loving the heavy weights!

  218. carey says:

    My cousin takes classes like these in Chicago and is nuts for them. I’m sure using these DVD’s won’t make me a size 0 like she is, but they would certainly help make things a bit…less jiggly ;).

  219. Alex says:

    I just discovered Bar Method at the end of 2011. In 2012, I want to try committing to Bar Method and going regularly 3-5 times a week to get those sculpted muscles they are known for. The bag would be a great addition to motivate me!

  220. Melanie says:

    I’d love to try the Bar Method!!!

  221. I want to try this new workout, The Bar Method, this year. I’ve heard a lot about it lately and need something new to try. I always loved ballet when I was younger. So excited there is a giveaway!!!

  222. Ashley says:

    Love bar classes…would love to try the bar method.

  223. Shannon says:

    Started barre classes Dec 22 and have found my new addiction. Love it!!!! My goal is to go 4-5 times per week. This would help so much!

  224. Alexis says:

    I’m looking at adding yoga and more stretching to my workout this year. Seems like the bar method would fit right inn!

  225. Donna Lindsay says:

    I like to try the new fitness crazes all the time, because its fun! It changes up your routine and has your muscles trying something new. Last year I started kickboxing and zumba. This year I am looking for a more tone, leaner look and would love to try the Barr Method and Piloxing!

  226. Tawna Franklin says:

    I would love to try the Bar Method. I have read several great reviews, and I am also very eager to try! The Sculpting DVD’s would be a great fit for me. Can’t wait to try them out!

  227. Ashley H. says:

    I want to try a dance workout.

  228. crystal says:

    besides the bar method, I would like to try Bob Harper’s new DVDs!

  230. Denise says:

    I want to add more yoga to my workouts.

  231. Tracy says:

    I have been looking at the fluidity bar for some time now and I really want to purchase one. Having the fluidity bar, I would also be able to add a variety of exercises with other ballet bar dvds, including the Bar Method.

  232. Molly B says:

    I have heard of this but didn’t know what it was. I would love to try it! The last time I did dance was when I was in 4th grade. 🙂

  233. Anna says:

    I signed up for my first Bar Method class tomorrow morning. I’ve heard such great things about the class, especially that even one class a week has shown results. I’ve never been more excited for a class. I have a great feeling I’m going to be hooked!

  234. Cameron J says:

    I just started on the Bar Method and I’m LOVING it so far. I would also like to try pilates and hot yoga this year!

  235. Theresa says:

    I saw a Bar Method studio while visiting my daughter in San Diego and would love to try it. Wish we had one here in Sacramento!

  236. Paige Cofnas says:

    I would love to try a bar method class in early 2012! Heard you are amazing.

  237. Leslie says:

    I’m dying to try Bar Method this year! I love the Tracy Anderson Method and the dancer’s body it gives and I’m always looking to supplement and try something new!

  238. Kellie Kluger says:

    This looks really fun and different! I’d love to try it. I was thinking about trying either Zumba or P90x this year!

  239. Bailey says:

    I would be super thrilled for a chance to try Bar Method. Also, I can’t wait to try Zumba this year. I’ve heard SO MUCH about it lately that I’ve decided to find a class and try it for myself.

  240. Cassie says:

    As a retired dancer, I would love to try the Bar Method! I’ve been wanting to get back into shape and I’m eager to try the something new.

  241. Jen says:

    I would LOVE to try this workout. I really need to mix things up a bit. I am all cardio, roller derby and weight lifting. The Bar Method would be a great tweek to my routine to spice things up a bit. My goal for 2012 is to run a 1/2. I have never ran more than 4 miles (when I type that and read it, it sounds like 100 miles, LOL) Here’s to a healthy 2012!

  242. Alison G says:

    I have been looking at the Fluidity bar for over a year; I can’t afford it, so this would be a great treat for me to win!

  243. Kristen says:

    I was in the best shape of my life when I was a dancer!

  244. Lucy says:

    I tried out one Barre class last year and loved it, but had to stop due to a medical issue. So I am looking forward to picking it up again in 2012 (my first class is on Monday!)

    I’m also happy I finally tried out a spin class! I have afew bruises but it was completely worth it!

  245. Nancy Reid says:

    I have practiced yoga for many years and think that the Bar Method would be a perfect accompaniment to my yoga workout!

  246. Melinda says:

    I’m looking forward to trying the Bar Method. This is one I haven’t tried yet and I’m always looking for something new. I’m also looking forward to getting started on a running program. I’ve never been a runner but want to try it!

  247. Amanda says:

    I’ll try anything once. Zumba, Piloxing….whateva!

  248. Laura says:

    Hello! This giveaway sounds great! I would absolutely love to try this Bar Method workout because it is something different and seems challenging! Just what I need to break my plateau and get me to my goal! Happy Friday!

  249. Beth says:

    Up for trying anything new! Thinking about getting brave and moving from walking to running.

  250. Michelle says:

    I am in need of the Bar Method. Although I “look” like I am in great shape, my core is in need of re-training after having kids. I am hoping after I “find” those muscles again my posture and therefore back and neck issues will be a thing of the past!!

  251. Jess says:

    I want to try anti-gravity yoga this year!

  252. Amy says:

  259. Brendon says:

    I’ve heard great things about The Bar Method and I would love to try it! I’d also like to try working out with kettle bells this year.

  261. Marci Gage says:
