Suggestions??

melliz73

I have been walking 2 to 3 miles for 5 days a week and just today tried to start the "30 Day Shred". To say that it kicked my butt is an understatement and it is probably something I will only do 2 or 3 times a week. Anyone have any suggestions for other videos or forms of exercise? I need some variation or I get bored and quit. I am open to anything but don't belong to a gym. Thanks in advance!

I use Leslie Sansone DVDs they are great. They do not cost a whole lot the last one was 14.99 canadian, I find them in Walmart.

I totally enjoy the Biggest Loser dvds. Have the boot camp and cardio max. There are different levels and you don't always need to use the weights I don't belong to a gym and there are no hills available where I live. I walk around the bus track near my home and today jogged some of it..:flowerforyou:

I like Jillian Michaels other videos. "Trouble Zones" is definitely not as intense as the shred and is more for just overall body today, no cardio.

I'm a fan of Jillian Micheals. I alternate 30 day shred, no more trouble zone and banish fat boost metabolism.

I agree! I've used nothing but the WATP videos and lost 24 lbs so far. They are very easy to follow and I have 8 or 9 of them so I mix them up to target different areas and not get bored. They have been good for toning too since they use your whole body. In one month I lost 1 1/2 inches from each thigh and hips and 1 inch from my upper arms, waist and chest. You can also get them at Target and Best Buy if you don't want to order on the internet. The new WATP 3-mile boot camp (at wal-mart) is a very good workout and comes with 2 stretcy band things. It's not really a beginner walk though.

I did just by the 30 day shred yesterday but haven't looked at it yet. Everyone else seems to like it so I thought I'd check it out.

I am doing the 30 day shred and I am on day 12 and I find that the motivation to do the whole workout without droping down to Anita's modified version:noway: is motivation to keep me going. and I do the workout daily.

I love the Leslie Sansone DVDs also. I found them at walmart too, around $10 bucks.

I don't know if you have cable, but my cable provider has "on-demand" channels (like pay-per-view) that actually has a free excercise channel. It has many catergories to choose from as far as aerobic, strength, dance etc. I love it! So much to choose from, I nvr get bored, it's free and it is constantly changing. If I really like a workout I can record it to dvd or go out and by the dvd.

ps- I also started 30 day shred yesterday as well. Was scared too from all the comments on here. I gotta say it was pretty tough but not as bad as I thought it would be. But maybe I am remembering it more w/ fondness cuz it's been a day since I done it. If you do decide to continue I would be interested in following your progress and would be happy to update you on mine. Good luck!

That would be great...I was a little intimidated. I have some issues with my knees so some of it was just too much right now. I am going to stick with it but maybe do it only once or twice a week as a boost workout. I do have "On-Demand" and will have to check out the workout stuff. I had forgotten about all of that. Thanks for the info.

Thanks everyone! I have taken notes and will have to check some of this stuff out!
