    Well If you dont have any Jillian Michaels she is a good place to start, she has several out including 30 Day Shred, Ripped in 30 just to name a couple and they sell for 10 or less at Walmart Target, Then I also like The Biggest Loser DVDs they also sell for about 10 and I like Lesley Sansone walking ones, last time I was at Walmart I saw one by the Kardashian sisters but never tried it. Some stores also sell the Firm and their pretty reasonable at the stores

    I highly recommend Turbo Jam! I bought my DVD on Amazon for less than 10 bucks. The one I got has 5 workouts--Learn and Burn, 20 minute, Turbo Sculpt, Ab Jam, and Cardio Party (45 min). It's nice to be able to skip around so you don't get bored with just one.

    Bob Harper Ultimate Cardio Body is a great work out but it's super intense!

    Everyone will recommend Jillian - her videos are cheap but effective.

    Bob Harper has some good videos out.

    Check your library, ebay, half.com and craigslist too. When I want something I try to ask myself "Do I need it now - do I need it new?"

    I'll second the Jillian Michaels' DVDs--30 Day Shred is a favorite. Ripped in 30 is good too. No More Trouble Zones is awesome for toning.

    I actually shelled out the big bucks for The Firm Express. While it was fun, it was no way near as effective as my $8.99 DVD of the 30 Day Shred.

    Happy shopping!

    In the past I have just put on my favorite music and danced to it for an hour or more. I turn off all the lights so no one sees me when my son is bed and I just go for it. Actual videos... I have got one from Jillian M and it was great!

    Ditto on Jillian's videos - Killer Buns and Thighs and Yoga Meltdown are great.
    I got "Look Better Naked" and like that too - I don't do it too often though because the 20 minute Metabolic workout has a bit of "jumping" moves. I get a little weird about that with my landlord downstairs, lol. So I do that when I know he isn't home! I do some P90X too.

    I bought The Firm workout dvds for $50 and they came with weights and a set of 4 dvds. I got it from Big W, but it depends if you're in Australia or not. It's an excellent workout, I just finished the hi-def sculpt and you can really feel it. Also if you have a Wii, the Jillian Michael's Fitness Ultimatum is really good too

    My favorite is Cathe Friedrich, but her dvds aren't cheap.

    Bob from The Biggles Loser is having a sale, or at least he was the other day. mytrainerbob.com is his website. They had some dvds on sale for $4.99 and $6.99. His workouts are really effective.

    I love most of Jillian Micheal's work out videos and saw results. I did the 30 day shred and lost a few pounds, but I got toned which I really liked. I also really like Piloxing (a combination of pilates and boxing) it's high energy cardio, but incorporates pilates so you also work on toning your legs, arms and core
