    I do Insanity and P90X on alternating days - if these are too long , there is also 10 minute trainer (which I do occasionally , in multiples {if you have 20 minutes , you could do 2})

    I'm going to try doing Pilates at home by following Cassie's POP Pilates videos from Blogilates (http://blogilates.com/) .

    There's a MFP group for POP Pilates I just joined: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/7697-pop-pilates

    I doing Insanity, day 15 and I think is great..I work long shifts and the workouts are 40-45 mins long.

    Does Insanity really work?

    My opinion is it definitely does. I completed my 1st Round of it 2 weeks ago and am just starting another one. Down 17lbs and 21 inches all over and that's with a bit of a mess nutrition wise the last week of August thru Labor Day.

    It's pretty intense and you learn to pace yourself a bit in the beginning but literally a week or two in there's a dramatic difference cardio-wise. In my first round I went out for a run on an off day and was able to complete a 2 mile run with little effort...I have NOT ran in over 20 years!

    Is it magic? No, and nutrition plays a big part of it but it will absolutely push you mentally and physically and is a refreshing challenge.

    You can get about JM ripped in 30, shred it with weights, six week six pack, and the yoga one for around $50. Workouts are around 20 to 30 mins. Well rounded workouts and they are alot of fun. I completed Insanity and it was great but it was pricey and I felt it took up alot of time. Also for a beginner it can discourage someone.

    Leslie Sansone's Walk at Home videos are great exercise and you don't need any equipment at all! Her videos are all on YouTube as well or only about $9 each at Walmart.


    Yes I agree, I have several of the Leslie Sansone's DVD's and love them for a quick cardio walk. I'm also very intrigued with Insantiy and want to try it.

    Wow! You guys are awesome! These are great suggestions. :smile:

    I need to take some time to digest it all, then decide on the right approach. Looks like I have several options!

    Oh... those dance games like Just Dance & Zumba. I tried one at a friend's house and I'm about to buy one for our Wii. It was so much fun and a great burn.

    I have 'Terri Walsh - The ART Method' dvd which is good and requires very little equipment. I believe Ripped in 30 is awesome also. I also have a few yoga and pilates dvd's if you like that kind of workout too. I mostly tend to stick to my body weight circuits though. There are some really good ones you can print from the internet or Zuzana Light (ex-Body Rock) has some amazing workouts on YouTube called ZWOW's which I am also hooked on! Otherwise, at home I have a skipping rope, some kettlebells, dip station... and a few other things but those are amazing investments to have and don't cost much and you have them forever!! Let us know how you go! :) You can message me your email address if you like and I could forward you some of the circuits that I do regularly. :) TC K
