    i like the 30 day shred, and my boyf does it as well (even though she refers to 'us girls' all the time). it's 20 mins so is good if you're busy. but i like to mix it up with some general cardio in between, as just doing the 30DS makes you lose size but not weight which can be depressing (i know it's the muscle gained that weighs more etc before the haters jump in)

    however, SO many workout dvds are on youtube (including 30DS), so i suggest you try a few and then buy the one you like best.

    When you choose, make sure to check what equipment it needs.

    I love the Zumba dvd's for cardio. Other fantastic ones are Bob Harper's Kettlebells (be sure to have proper instruction on form), Rodney Yee for Yoga. The 8 minute series is great for days when you don't have a lot of time or want to add a bit more to another workout. Short but effective. :)

    I am obsessed with Jillian Michaels. I started with 30 Day Shred (you dont even have to buy this, its on youtube), moved on to ripped in 30 and I've started her Body Revolution. The first two are cheap to buy. The Body Revoulition is very expesnsive so make sure you are commited to get your money's worth.

    I've had some great results with JM and her work outs are typically 20-30 mins long. I really love doing them and this is coming from someone who would rather walk over hot coals than work out!!

    Best of luck

    I totally agree! I also like anything by Sean T (hip hop abs is my fav!) and anything by Billy Blanks.

    The Firm Express DVD set...12 dvd's each 20 minutes long. Cardio, sculpt and cardio/sculpt. They have a thin in 30 day program with these to get started. You do cardio, kickboxing moves, plyometrics etc. and don't need a lot of equipment...just some hand weights. I have knee troubles and con modify exercises when needed. Also does cardio bursts to kick up your heart rate and burn fat. I love them, they are actually fun, especially the kickboxing moves! I have lost 12.5 pounds in less than a month using these and following fitness pal. Good Luck!

    Here's a link to check to out:

    It really depends in what shape you are. I think Insanity is the most challenging and it will help you lose weight fast (plus it requires no equipment). P90X is the complete package, with strength, cardio, balance and flexibility.

    Both of these are challenging, but if you are up for it, there is nothing batter.

    I cannot recommend 30DS enough I lost 15lbs and 17inches in two rounds, so 60 days. Although I did 5 days on, 2 days rest so it took a lot longer than that. It's a good workout.

    In my rest week of Insanity, it's really good as well!

    I'll add Billy Blanks to the list. I love his workouts and they arent all high impact which is great for people with ankle/knee problems

    I love Jillian Michaels. The ones I use the most are Killer Buns and Thighs, Kickbox Fast Fix, Extreme Shed and Shred, and Ripped in 30. I also do a bit of Body Revolution and Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism from time to time.

    I am doing Insanity right now and its an awesome workout. It seems pricy but you get 10 DVDs.

    I also have done 30 Day Shred and Ripped in 30.

    I use Turbo Fire and it's fantastic. I highly recommend it. Pricey but it's more than worth it.
