Time to get moving...finally feeling like I can with the first 25 lbs down and 75 to go. ISO of recommendations of apps/DVD's for Yoga and/or resistance band training at home. Definitely at the beginner level. Could also use some friends to keep me motivated!!

    I love working with bands......

    This is a beginner workout set using bands

    Video clips: https://www.totalfitnessdvds.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=powerfit

    The 10 workout set called PowerFit Harmony (check Amazon) will likely be the best deal. Each workout is 20 minutes long. As you progress you can add on. The 10 workout set has a yoga style workout called Core Balance. The bands provided with a new DVD set are annoyingly short. If you have bands, you can skip buying new.

    This DVD is a good starter for bands. Video clips: http://www.collagevideo.com/products/10-minute-solution-slim-amp-sculpt-pilates

    It also has a wonderful 10 minute stretch. The DVD is rated intermediate/advanced.....no way. If you buy this new, the band is nice & long.

    I know you can buy straps and blocks at Target, but unsure about bands.
