I've been using TurboJam for cardio, and the Firm (Transfirmer) for strength training. I just want to try something new so I don't get bored with the workouts I have now. Which ones do you really like?

I have a couple of the Jillian Michaels video - "blast fat, boost metabolism" and the "30 day shred". I also love her yoga video. I also do Jackie Warner's videos - the total body circuit training one for when I want to use weights and a great ab video.0

if you like turbojam... upgrade to turbofire!!! Its AWESOME! I started out as a turbojammer and have had my turbofire for about 2 years now and still use it all the time! love, love it!
I'm also really excited to be adding insanity to my workout collection. It burns MAX calories!!! high intensity!0 -
Go ahead and laugh..... I use Richard Simmons!!! I love him0
-
I've been doing Insanity, 30 Day Shred and just started Bob Harper's Total body sculptured Kettlebell workout.
Recommend them all.0 -

You can look into ChaLEAN Extreme0 -
Last week I was looking for a visual reference on how to do a particular kettlebell exercise, so I looked it up on YouTube....I had NO idea how many full length workouts were on there! There are some of Jillian Michaels' on there, yoga, kettlebell workouts. Its my new go-to when I want to try something new that I don't have at home.0

I'm in week 3 of Insanity which I am loving (I completed it last year as well). Next I will be doing Les Mills Body Combat, and after that I'm not sure yet...maybe Insanity Asylum. I love the variety because I get bored if I do one thing for too long...which is why I couldn't keep myself focused on P90X I think. I do go to the gym 2-3 days a week for additional strength trianing and weight lifting as well.0

I've got a bunch but most are dusty - I'm working on changing that. I just started doing DVD's again.
I have several Callenetics and I'm trying to do 4 hours a week
Leslie Sansone - walks - I'll try to use them on yukky days or to finish a walking challenge I just started here on MFP
Several yoga and Pilates. I prefer the WIndsor Pilates ones - perhaps because I know them better0 -
Shaun T's Rockin' Body! I LOVE it! I've also been wanting 30DS, I've seen others with great results from that.0
-
Leslie Sansone and Zumba Gold I love them.0
-
I started with 30 DS then I moved on to Burn fat boost metabolism and No more trouble zones. I am currently doing turbo fire and it is my favorite. The calorie burn is ridiculous, and it is actually fun.0
-
I like pretty much everything the Firm has put out. I have many of those dvds so I never get bored with them. I also have a Bar Method dvd that's great.
I have found several Youtube channels for workouts that are also awesome. Namely, Blogilates. her workouts are so fun!0 -
I am admittedly a Fitness DVD junkie. Back when I started on my journey, I was a FT working Mom of 4 with a deployed spouse.. going to the gym was close to impossible.
I have everything from Jillian Michaels to TaeBo to Les Mills Combat and Pump and they have all been great for different periods in my journey!
Jillian Michaels - No More Trouble Zones still kills me!
Les Mills - Combat - leaves me nice and sweaty!
Les Mills - Pump - very flexible b/c you can add weight as you get stronger! -0 -
I don't know what cable provider you have...but I do kickboxing with Jill Coleman...it's on demand w/ Comcast/Xfinity. It kicks butt & I feel a big difference after just a couple of workouts.
I need to do more stuff with weights but I'm going to be moving soon so why pay for a gym membership0 -

I have Comcast, I never thought about looking into the On Demand for workouts, thanks for the tip!0 -
julian michales 30 day shred , denise austin, I also do alot of workouts on youtube and netflix instant videos0

I have several and do most of them (some are new for me and I haven't tried yet):
Billy Banks
Bob Harper
Jillian Michaels
Shaun T
The Firm
Zumba0 -
I started with slim in 6. I still try and do it once a week because it's a good full body workout.
I used the 'walking away the pounds' videos a few times as well. I have the 30 day shred but only did it once and my knees were sorry later. I have turbo fire, but it's a bit too fast paced for me and I haven't got into it yet. I'm seriously considering buying Les Mills pump at this point, as the gym doesn't have a very good schedule for them.0 -
I am a fitness DVD (also have lots of video tapes from back in the day) addict! My two all time favorite instructors are Cathe Friedrich and Christi Taylor. I also enjoy having YouTube workouts available too. Fitness Blender is my favorite there.0
-
I did Jillian's 30DS, then Jillian's kettlebell DVD and have moved on to Jillian's No More Trouble Zones. I did it two days ago and I'm still sore. But a good sore, you know? It's longer than the others (45 minutes) but I felt like I accomplished something at the end.
I guess I'm a Jillian junkie. I also have KettleworX and Leslie Sansone but haven't done them in awhile. I have Insanity, but it's a little advanced for me. I'll try that again when I'm in better shape.0 -
Gilad! Also been watching some shorter 10-20 min youtube workouts for my arms with hand weights.0
-
Thanks so much for all your suggestions! I'm getting so many great ideas from you! I really appreciate it. It will be so nice to spice things up so I don't get bored. (I think I have the dialogue in some of the DVDs memorized).0
-
I just started using Turbo Jam about 3 weeks ago... I LOVE iT but I can see that I will buying Turbo Fire at some point.
YOU TUBE can be your friend.... You can just search fitness and there are a a ton of videos. But I like Fitness Blender on there: http://www.youtube.com/user/FitnessBlender0 -
Didn't notice if anyone else suggested this or not, but I do KettleWorx workouts. I also mix in different types of Yog and Pilates, mainly by Gaiam.0
-
At the current moment, I work out with Insanity and Jillian Micheals.0
-
I am fitness dvd junkie! I have vhs videos from the 80's I believe! But right now my favs are Insanity and Turbojam! Both are challenging and lots of fun!!0
-
I am on my 6th week of Les Mills Combat!! Love it.0
