    I have 170 or so pounds to lose and I use the Zumba DVDs. Most of the moves I can do, if there is something I can't quite do I just make up a modified version up on my own. They are really fun and I can definitely tell I have built up a lot more endurance using them. I also have tried Shaun T's Rockin' Body. Those are pretty good also. His video actually has someone doing modified versions of every move if you need it.

    I used Supreme 90 day for the last 2 years, at first its a little tough but it gets easier if you keep to it. Best part was 10 dvds for $20-30 vs the cost of P90X... also most of the workouts are around 30 mins:smile:

    I started Zumba class and added the Wii zumba and my weight loss has speeded up even though I'm still eating back my exercise calories. Result! And its fun.:happy:

    Retro, but Richard Simmons has lots of options even for folks with a lot to lose.

    I was going to suggest Richard too. He has some great DVDs, some are low impact. I used his videos when I was just starting out, trying to get fit. Jillian Michaels, IMHO, is a bit advanced, even her "easy" stuff is way too difficult for a beginner.
