    Go to totalfitnessdvds.com or collage video for dvds. And videofitness.com has reviews on all types of workouts.

    I'm a runner mainly, but I also do videos in my home gym. I've done Insanity and George St. Pierre's RushFit and now have been doing the Cathe Freidrich's Muscle Max, which is resistance training.
    How did you like rushfit? I am considering getting it. Is there much to do in it without handweights? I already follow a lifting program so I don't use handweights in DVDs

    Have to admit I didn't love it but I only did a couple of workouts. I felt like GSP was dumbing it down and couldn't stand that. But what I did had hand weights... go for something like Tapout XT or Insanity for something more cardio-like.

    NFL Boot Camp on the Wii first thing in the morning, 2-3 times a week; kettlebell; treadmill and walking outdoors -- these exercises are all part of my ever changing routine. I'm losing plenty of inches and feeling great (although I wish the scale would move down more often). Oh, I also play softball once a week in a rec week. The key is just to keep moving more days out of the week than not.

    I use a stationary bike and watch netflix at the same time. I don't even realise I'm doing anything, It's a great feeling!

    I almost took a picture of all my workout videos this morning, realizing how many I have lol.

    This morning I did Turbo Jam total body blast and Zumba Fitenss (xbox) Then there is, Turbo Jam Kickin it core, Zumba Rush (xbox) Bob Harper Kettlebell cardio, BH Kettlebell Sculpt, Bob Harper Pure Burn Bob Harper Yoga for the Warrior, Bob harper Core, Jillian Micheals S&S, Jillian Michaels Kettle Bell, another JM cant remember name, Tae Bo Elite, Leslie Sansone 3-5 Miles, 2 belly dance workouts, 1 exotic dance workout, 1 hip hop workout, Brazilian Buttlift workouts (2) Yoga Booty Ballet, The Firm, and I think Im missing a few...So far Bob Harper workouts are my favorite next to Zumba...

    I've used some of the workouts on XOD they can be pretty good too.

    I love being able to workout out at home, Ive done the gym rat routine which I loved too - but I feel like I get such a better variety at home.

    I started working out when I was a teenager, so I have quite a few VHS workouts (Denise Austin, BodyShaping, Step Reebok, etc.)

    I also have Turbo Jam, Turbo Fire, Brazil Butt Lift, and Supreme 90.

    I am currently doing Turbo Fire for cardio and then doing whatever I feel like for resistance work. I can't workout with the same instructor for too long or I get bored, so my current regimen is geared with that in mind.

    Beachbody - doing Turbo Fire right now & love it. Think it's my fave so far!
    I am about to start this!!! As soon as I can afford it :-/ I think it will be worth it :) I am also wanting to do p90x, I may do a hybrid as soon as I can.

    Currently I am doing kettlebells, my own weight routines (hiit) Jillian Michaels and Bob Harper (the kettle bell workout) and many more! I love working out at home!!

    I run (Couch to 5 k), I lift, I'm starting Insanity in a couple of weeks, sometimes I do Tae Bo if I have extra energy to burn and do Pilates and Yoga. I'm too cheap for a gym but sometimes think about joining one for the equipment, but I don't know...

    I used to be a gym rat, but I had no choice but to work out at home when I had my last baby. I started off with the beachbody program Insanity, and then did Insanity Asylum, and now about to start on Asylum 2. I've actually had better results from these programs than I did at the gym.

    I love my XBox360 Kinect. I normally stick with the Just Dance games, however I've done the Zumba and even just the Kinect Adventures can be a workout if you really get into it.

    I usually walk on my treadmill and either listen to my iPod or watch a video on Netflix to keep my mind occupied.

    I love to walk - whether it is on my treadmill, walking my dogs at the marina or just walking around running errands. Also use hand weights and resistance bands.
