Downloading vs Streaming

Some workout fans prefer streaming to downloading and even pay for streaming content.

I much prefer downloading to avoid buffering delays when actually doing the routine and to sample some of it before wasting a workout session on a streamed routine that may not click for me. I also prefer to edit then burn most routines to use in my basement workout area,
Some routines available online may not be available in the future for a revisit, especially if there is a conflict with music copyrights.    Downloading has saved me from losing a favorite routine many times, especially the second Dance Party routine by Jessica Smith (AKA: Cardio Dance Party).

This morning I revisited a couple of downloads which were burned on a dvdr in March 2013.  The first time I visited them was in August 2014 so it took alot of detective work to find the specific dvdr.

I knew I had the original Linda Edler Latin Beginner class which disappeared from my Dance Playlist on a dvdr and it was worth the time and effort to find the dvdr with the video file because it is a true Party in a Box.  Her replacement Latin Dance Fitness Beginners 2 video just doesn't have the same feel but I will eventually try it.  Also liked the Purple Store tube warmup with the audio replaced.

again MUsic makes a huge difference!

ETA: I just did some of my edited version of  Unleash with Bipasha Basu and the MUsic I used was awesome!  The original can be found on youtube.

Purplestore and Chair on the Hopper Ball

First I did an edited file of the Purplestore.de band warmup which I really liked , maybe because of my MUsic because the original does nothing for me LOL


Then I tried their edited lower body band routine but wasn't my thing (band lower body wrapped around the feet tend to aggravate my knees) so skipped to another edited Purplestore warmup which was done with the legs wide and worked perfectly on my hopper ball!

It really worked the lower body on the Hopper Ball!
(and my MUsic made it awesome)

After the standing routine, I did a chair routine on the Hopper Ball but need to replace its MUsic:


If I want to bounce and keep legs wide, I keep the handle in front.  If I want to bounce with my legs closer together, I put the handle in the back.  I think I like the Hopper Ball more than my favorite stability ball which is saying alot since I have at least 5 others still blown up.  If I want to drive up my intensity quickly during a routine, a few hops will do the trick.

Also started to revisit the Sparkspeople Chair routine and decided to stick with my edited version.

Saved the best for last.
This Zumba Beginners Class which was removed from youtube :(

The audio quality wasn't the best but the choreography was great on the bungee.  Linda Elder has lots of Zumba classes on her channel, many of which I plan to download.
