If you want something to roll your eyes at, but keep moving in the process, I found that the more annoying I felt they were (i'm a quiet person usually), the more motivated I felt to keep moving "...they're sweating? really? lets do it up harder than them...seriously" .

I was looking up reviews on this workout dvd to decide between it and a different one. I'm so glad I read your review!
