Thank you for all the hard work you are putting into revamping the programs. They all look great and I look forward to seeing the rest of them. And doing them. I am slating in Zen for December. So excited!! :thanks::delight::gots:

We'll start working on the Level 3 programs some time next week :happy: it'll take a while cause there are a lot of them.. Sooo, we'll keep you updated as I we make progress.

Also, I don't want to start a new topic for this (and since I am already here announcing and all): the November Thanksgiving event "Turkey Run" has been officially scheduled for Sunday, November 24th. It'll be an annual event starting this year and it'll have its own unique badge.

:thankyou:

@neilarey does this mean Hero's Journey and other RPG programs will get updated too? (I am already in day 35 of Hero's Journey so i am past halfway)

And what about other programs like Core Strength and Total Abs?

Any chance it will be updated in time

... Sadly, no, I don't think so. We have a new program coming out in January so the updates are on hold at the moment (until January actually). We'll get a few things done but I don't want to get anyone's hopes up for the level 3 programs - it's going to be a LOT of work. I can see we'll need ~ 6 months to get it all done since we are doing this while also handling all the new releases as well. I can tell you that Cardio Trim will be moved up a level (Level 4). It'll still have high impact exercises but fewer reps.

Everything is getting updates. Some programs are just getting a facelift (newer ones) but the older programs are getting some major changes. It's not going to happen tomorrow, though, it's a lot of work - especially when it comes to RPG programs (they are more complex programming wise). I'll update everyone when the time comes! Right now I would say, just keep doing what you are doing. These are still great and well-tested programs. If anything, a lot of them will be made easier in many ways - not harder.

Hi hi!

I’ve had my heart set on 30 Days of Change for a while, and wanted to start that in January after completing Fit December, going from level 2 to 3. I just want to ask: will it remain level 3? Or should I pick a new program? Thank you!!!!!

We are beginning to update all of our programs (not all, but many) for 2024.
We are starting with level 1 programs and going up from there. We'll post the updated program below!

Also, we'll finally re-level them according to the new rules (depending on the changes made).

:please:

Is it possible to have a database link about all the no updated workouts and programs?

The 30 Days of Change is the next one the list to be updated! I know we wanted to have it ready in January... but it will largely depend on out workflow in December. I am hoping we'll have it done before the 1st but, again, I don't want to get anyone's hopes up. Now what I can tell you: it'll stay at level 3 and it will not have push-ups or high impact exercises in it after the update.

I hope this helps! :thankyou:

good evening!

sorry to bother, had to ask: will 90 days of action get a face lift or a proper change? thinking of committing to it in the new year (January, Februrary and March), but still interested what will happen to its status :LOL:

I would like a medal for this... because I am here working on Christmas day :happy:

So.....

The 30 Days of Change has now been updated. You can download the old, 2017 version, here.

The program has changed a lot since it's last update. So much so that we consider it a bright new program that has the same structure.

:happy:

I couldn't find a "giving medal" emoji so I figured what likely happened is the dragon stole the medal and is currently eating it for Christmas lunch

:noming:

....sorry

(((you're awesome!!! Happy Christmas!!!)))

This looks AMAZING and waaaay more doable than it used to. It feels like another Christmas present!! I’ll start it when I finish Total Body.

Thank you for all that you do!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Why have the pictures gone from the title page of the programmes?
Click to expand...
We had an internal discussion (or 5) about it :LOL: Initially, we just ran out of the free images we could use but then we felt that those create unrealistic expectations for the programs. It was also suggested that perhaps photos of fit people don't fit in with the DAREBEE general feel. We don't use before and after photos or photos of fit people on the site elsewhere, for example. A few people (not many) also found those triggering. All and all, we ended up removing them. I hope this makes sense :hopeful:

@neilarey I was getting ready to start my first program of the year (whoo hoo :vibes:) and i was looking at the new and improved 30 days of change. For my cardio portion on the days I have to do 30 minutes, would dancing for 30 minutes be okay or should it be strict cardio like walking, running, biking, etc?

I totally understand and I wasn't criticising, just wondering. I like pictures. Also just wondering if, just to make thing a little prettier perhaps, you couldn't use the badge picture associated with each programme as the faded background...

And here I thought the images on the workout were just line drawings of pictures of Neila or Damer.... :chuckle:
