Favorite at home workout?

Hi everybody!

I've realized that I'm starting to slack on working out at home since I've started college. I typically enjoy doing Blogilates, but I'm starting to get bored of it.

Do you have any suggestions for effective but fun workouts? Or if you designed your own, do share!

    Just Dance on the Wii: fun dancing with great feedback. It's designed as a game, not so much as a workout, but I think that's what is great about it.

    Classic Stretch: A PBS program that is a workout for all levels focusing on strength, flexibility, and lifelong health. It also works areas, such as fingers and feet, that is typically ignored in other workout programs. The instructor really knows her stuff. I tend to do it in the mornings before work, as it is relaxing, invigorating, but yet not sweaty.

    I'm in the same position. I spend way too much time sitting while in school! I run up and down the stairs. It's a killer.

    I love PiYo, which is a pilates and yoga blend. A couple more are Chalean Extreme and The Ultimate Yogi with Travis Elliot.

    I have designed a sequence based on 1-minute intervals (50sec on, 10sec transition). The interval format keeps you going and means you don't have to count reps (although, you do have to watch the clock).

    I start with pushups, then run through a bunch of standard core exercises, then do a bunch of standard upper-body exercises with resistance bands, and finally, I do several intervals of squats. Depending on how much time I have, I can make it anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes by repeating various sequences.

    There are lots of example core and resistance band workouts on YouTube. (Maybe I should post my own...)

    I just search for workouts on youtube. Fitness Blender is good. I like GymRa a lot, as well. Some of the popsugar videos are good -- I love the kickboxing ones. I'm all about free workouts. :)

    HASfit videos on youtube. They are a cute married couple who are real down to earth. They have different workouts in varying time frames. I really enjoy working out to them at home.

    I normally go to the gym but sometimes not in the mood to haul my butt out of the house. I do P90 or P90X by Tony Horton. I just enjoy the workout
