I know there have already been posts about this, but I'm still wanting more suggestions, so here goes ...

For you fellow DVD exercisers: What are your favorite/most effective strength/toning DVDs?

I'm very close to goal (yay!) and still have some stubborn fat to lose in my lower abs and thighs. ***Yes, yes, I KNOW you can't spot reduce and that it's all about diet and cardio, so no need to tell me that!*** :wink:

But I also want to build muscle/tone below the fat so that, voila! when the fat is gone I will look fit and shapely and not just like I lost weight.

Thanks! :smile:

    I've only done 30 day shred by Jillian Michaels but it's definitely been helping to tone everything in the past month.

    I've done the 30 Day Shred, which I loved. But I'm currently doing her Ripped in 30 and I gotta say that this one, so far, is definitely my favorite.

    Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred or her No More Trouble Zones are FANTASTIC! To give you an idea:
    In March I got married - just went to the court house & then planned a Reception for 6 weeks so we weren't rushed. My dress fit very well, looked good but I noticed my arms & back were not what I really liked. 6 weeks later, wearing the same dress, I saw my arms - looking GREAT! and someone took a picture of me from the back (without my permission) bending over to cut the cake & my back looked INCREDIBLE!

    So, persistence, consistence & perserverance pays off :happy:

    I've got the Supreme 90 DVD's, it is the muscle confusion system like with P90X, just at a cheaper price and the workouts are apparently a little shorter. $20 at Walgreens, Walmart, even saw them at Dollar General.

    Supreme 90 Day is a good program. I'm doing it. I'm closing up on Day 90.

    I love Tae Bo, it's my number one workout. Strength workouts by Billy Blanks are good too.

    I bought one of Bob Harper's Kettlebell Workout kits from Target a little over a month ago. I got the one that came with a 10-lb kettlebell. From July 23rd to Aug. 26th, I lost 3 inches off my waist, an inch off my hip, and a half inch off my thigh. It comes with a DVD and the workout is only 30mins, including warm up and cool down.

    I highly recommend it!

    about $20 for each one i think. I like Split sessions and Olympic lifting (LIFT), but she has many others that are highly recommended on Collagevideo that i haven't tried yet.

    ETA :I also really like Supreme 90

    I'll try Kelly one day, when the price is right for me. I like Supreme 90 Day.
