WIN! Audio workouts from @CardioCoach - DG 9th Birthday Sell Out Day 1
January 18, 2010
The prize: Cardio Coach Volume 1 MP3 workout
Available to readers from: Worldwide
What the heck is it?
Cardio Coach™ is a downloadable audio workout program for your iPod / MP3 player and is designed for any type of cardio machine (bikes, treadmill, cross trainer, elliptical, stair stepper, rower etc.) and features a patented levels & zone system for any fitness level, from beginner to advanced.
Why do you dig it?
I wrote about Cardio Coach™ in 2007:
.. a dude called Sean O'Malley with a rather sexy voice tells you exactly what to do; suitable for any piece of cardio equipment. When to go fast, when to go slow, when to stretch; it really does make the time go faster! I have conversations with Sean in my head. I hate you Sean. Oh we're almost there? Fine then. I'll do it. Only for you. Fetch me another bottle of water Sean. You're the best Sean. HIGHLY recommended.
There are 10 copies of Cardio Coach™ Volume 1 to be won, each worth $14.95 USD.
Simply leave a comment below to enter! Entries close Tuesday 26 January 2010 at 10.00 GMT.

Happy Birthday by the way. Love the blog and have been loving your podcasts with THE MIZFIT.

Great website, happy anniversary!
Just wish my aussie friend who moved to Scotland to get married would take heed of your wise words as he has ballooned since become dormant with Scottish winters!
15 · Posted by Christine · January 18, 2010 at 02:23 AM
I listen to you and Mizfit while I walk but could definitely use a sexy voice for filler between podcasts!
16 · Posted by Melinda · January 18, 2010 at 02:25 AM
This sounds really cool! Happy Blogiversary!
17 · Posted by Amanda · January 18, 2010 at 02:29 AM

*fingers-crossed*
Thank you,

For shame - I de-lurk not to comment on a particuarly funny entry, not to offer congratulations on achievements newly reported, not to send words of encouragement on dark days. No I de-lurk for the chance of winning something. Shallow-ness exposed. Ah well.
22 · Posted by Alison · January 18, 2010 at 03:08 AM
I love you Dietgirl!
23 · Posted by Sheila · January 18, 2010 at 03:09 AM
DUDE. I listened to the samples and those are awesome. It's like... personal trainer or fitness class, but you don't have to show up at a certain time. I'd love to win one.
24 · Posted by Gretchen · January 18, 2010 at 03:12 AM
Happy Anniversary Shauna!!!
25 · Posted by ana · January 18, 2010 at 03:15 AM

Anything to make my workouts more fun!
28 · Posted by Nique · January 18, 2010 at 03:24 AM
I'm not used to so much Tassie sunshine. It's plenty of motivation to hit the gym!!!
29 · Posted by Megan · January 18, 2010 at 03:41 AM
I have really enjoyed your blog for the past few month. I wish I could say I have been a reader from the beginning, but I only discovered it after reading your book. Your book was amazing and inspiring.
30 · Posted by Patricia · January 18, 2010 at 03:41 AM
Anything to make the treadmill walk more fun!!
31 · Posted by Lori T · January 18, 2010 at 03:46 AM
Motivation would be sorely appreciated (delivered by a sexy voice might make it more inviting)
32 · Posted by Fran Grant · January 18, 2010 at 03:52 AM
Ohh me me!!! I would like a Cardio Coach
33 · Posted by Emmie · January 18, 2010 at 03:55 AM
*Jumps up and down waving hand in the air* Pick me, pick me, pick me.
34 · Posted by CouchPotatoAtHeart · January 18, 2010 at 03:56 AM
Shauna, I've read your blog for years and this is my first comment - I'm embarrassed that it took the promise of free gifts to pull me out of the woodwork!
35 · Posted by Sharwain · January 18, 2010 at 04:17 AM
CardioCoach sounds awesome!
36 · Posted by Amy · January 18, 2010 at 04:19 AM
I've never commented before, but I've been a fan for a long time!! Thank you for everything and happy birthday! Pick me!
37 · Posted by Jessica · January 18, 2010 at 04:23 AM
Sounds great! Just what someone like me needs on the damned cross trainer and rowing machines!
38 · Posted by Sarah C. · January 18, 2010 at 04:26 AM
Anything that can up my motivation sounds good to me :)
39 · Posted by just a girl · January 18, 2010 at 04:29 AM
I need something exciting and motivating to start. I would like to try this.Thank you.
40 · Posted by Olga · January 18, 2010 at 04:33 AM
I feel very odd leaving a comment on your blog to win something, like I am taking advantage of you and your lovely nature.
However, as you can see, this is not enough to put me off entering. I am a shallow woman indeed.

41 · Posted by LaLa · January 18, 2010 at 04:52 AM
So do we have to write something interesting and relevant to enter this competition or will any old malarky do? ;)
42 · Posted by Karen Jordan · January 18, 2010 at 05:01 AM
Me please! I'm sure I'll love anything you love.
43 · Posted by MissD · January 18, 2010 at 05:02 AM
That would be great! Congrats.
44 · Posted by Candice · January 18, 2010 at 05:14 AM

50 · Posted by jane · January 18, 2010 at 06:01 AM
Thanks for being such a sell out for us Shauna!
Congratulations on your anniversary, its quite an achievement to stick around here that long..
51 · Posted by Amanda · January 18, 2010 at 06:06 AM
I would love to win this. I'm finding cardio a bit boring at the moment. I'm supposed to be on my way to do some right now, and I think this would really help motivate me. I might look into buying a workout.
52 · Posted by Nerida · January 18, 2010 at 06:21 AM
Sounds like fun. ;)
53 · Posted by AndrewENZ · January 18, 2010 at 06:32 AM

55 · Posted by Stella · January 18, 2010 at 06:48 AM
Hi Shauna,
I think the 'Sean song' has to visit me in Australia!!! :)
Lets hope my name comes out of the hat!!
Keep up the blog...it is hugely motivating to me and I am learning a lot by just reading your blog..
Cheers
Anna

Me, me, me!
57 · Posted by Wendy · January 18, 2010 at 06:59 AM
Happy Birthday!
I could use some motivation for the treadmill. Every time I drag myself to the gym it feels like such a slog clomping along on.
58 · Posted by Kate · January 18, 2010 at 07:11 AM
Pretty Please - after a month of revising and exams and NO exercise I desperately need something to help me get going again. I think my body has forgotton that it can actually move!
59 · Posted by Bekmiff · January 18, 2010 at 07:17 AM
I just ate half a box of Wheat Thins, half a bag of Doritos, and some gouda. I need to STOP THE INSANITY and start working the Doritos off my ass. PLEASE SEND ME A COPY OF THIS WORKOUT!
Love,
Forever on the Hips
60 · Posted by JoJo · January 18, 2010 at 07:34 AM
Ooh, pick me, pick me! It's hot in Oz at the moment so I need to do some cardio indoors!
61 · Posted by Hannah · January 18, 2010 at 07:43 AM
I can't believe you've been about for 9 whole years,
Congrats!
Isn't it meant to be the other way around, aren't we meant to be giving you some pottery or a basket made of willow for entertaining us so long!?!
Here's to the next 9 years!
62 · Posted by Ali · January 18, 2010 at 07:43 AM
How can I resist leaving a comment when there's something to win? Well, I can't. :)
Have a great day!
63 · Posted by alea · January 18, 2010 at 07:45 AM
Shamelessly commenting in the hopes of winning something for free (and also kickstarting my New Year workouts!)
64 · Posted by beth · January 18, 2010 at 08:20 AM
Happy Anniversary! Love your blog and loved your book too!
65 · Posted by Annette · January 18, 2010 at 08:29 AM
Another delurker here. Isn't it amazing what the offer of free stuff will do :)
Whether I win or not.... Happy 9th Birthday!!!
66 · Posted by crazylady · January 18, 2010 at 08:54 AM
I just added a post re terms and conditions of the Sell Out but will reiterate here that the prizes will be drawn at RANDOM :)
67 · Posted by Shauna · January 18, 2010 at 09:03 AM
Okay I don't usually like someone telling me what to do, but count me in - the sexy voice might just do it!
68 · Posted by Amy · January 18, 2010 at 09:05 AM
Oooh, sounds great. Just what I need for the spin bike! Please put me in the hat. Well, my name. And congratulation on nine years!

71 · Posted by Sonja · January 18, 2010 at 09:16 AM
All I wanna say is: Congratulations :-)
No Mp3 for me please unless Sean's sexy voice works outside as well. Need me some fresh air and hate cardio equipment!
72 · Posted by Tessa · January 18, 2010 at 09:21 AM
I'd love to enter your contest please, you've very generous to do this.
73 · Posted by Lisa · January 18, 2010 at 09:23 AM
Oooh, that's a really good idea! I just got back to using my stationary bike as cross-training for my new running habit. I find the bike REALLY boring, so maybe this would help.
74 · Posted by Cathy · January 18, 2010 at 09:27 AM
I have just found Diet Girl and love the way you write (and you get bonus points because you are an Aussie)

95 · Posted by Kimberly Lee · January 18, 2010 at 01:37 PM
Oooh this would be perfect for me. Seeing as my 'I'll start going to gym on 1st January' regime has, well, not started yet.
