I have a few of the Leslie Sansone walking videos and I like them, but would like some variety.

Do you recommend any videos that might fit this:
Out of shape - so needs to be beg/int or able to be modified
Doesn't require much space or equipment
Needs to be short, or easily broken into segments
Would prefer "normal" people doing the workout with modest dress.

Thank you.

    I like Yoga Booty Ballet workouts too, they're "relax" enough if you're starting out. You can get them on ebay not too expensive.

    There's even one of the videos where there's a 300+ plus girl in the back doing it. If that's not motivation, I don't know what is.

    Hi- I love the Jillian Michael Kickboxing DVD. Three workouts on it - 20 minutes each workout. You can modify any of the moves. When I first started doing it, I could only get thru about ten minutes and now I'm doing 40 minutes. Some of the floor exercises I can't do yet, but I just modify it and move my butt ! The gals have workout clothes on though, but it's normal clothing for what they are doing. Good luck on your journey.

    Rockin' Body worked for me! Shaun T is funny and very motivating in this series, and he is awesome about modifications. You can often get the program from beachbody.com for just $19.95.

    When you said "normal people" in modest dress, I immediately thought of the Biggest Loser workouts

    Biggest Loser Power Walk is kinda like a version of Leslies workouts but with more moves and variety. Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred is circuit training, some cardio, some weights, and the workouts are short. Turbo Jam is really fun, there are several videos, you could just cut the longer ones in half if you don't have enough time.

    Denise Austin has some walking workouts you might like. You coauld also try some old school Jane Fonda and Richard Simmons "Sweatin' to the Oldies". There is a workout I got in a sample DVD put out by Acacia by a woman called Petra Something (Kolber, maybe?) that is pretty low impact, but a nice workout. (Google is my friend, it is Petra Kolber, and it looks like she has several videos.) http://www.sparkpeople.com/resource/videos-detail.asp?video=33 this is also pretty good.
