Ok,
So I have been doing 30 day shred for 7 days now, and I cannot for the life of me keep doing the SAME routine over and over again (I know it switches, but still, its then the same routine again for 10 days... I won't get through it --- its boring me).
I have figured out my issue with exercise, I need variety!
I was just wondering if it would be worth while to switch between a few exercise routines (like one for butt/thighs, one for arms, one for abs) like 3 days a week, jog 3 days a week (possibly the same day sometimes) and then swim once a week.
What other suggestions of specific videos or varieties of workouts that can work for someone who bores VERY easily???!!!
Thanks!

I think switching would be fine, especially switching between parts of the body. Abs one day, thighs, etc. I also think switching between high and low intensity helps burn (correct me if I'm wrong!)0

I need variety, too. I use The Firm workout videos. They use different instructors for every video--even in the same box set. They vary in length from 20 minutes to 60 minutes depending on which ones you get. Some of the videos are step aerobics, some use kickboxing, some dancing, and some just regular aerobics. Some of the videos also include weights, but they always switch back and forth between a few minutes of toning (with or without weights) and then a few minutes of cardio. They also have an instructor doing the "beginner" moves in case you need to start a little slower. I've also used Tae-Bo which is similar in that they vary in length and routine, but it uses the same instructor which gets tiresome. Hope this helps!0
