So in your opinion what is the best cheap work out video out there?
I like Leslie Sansone's Walk Away the Weightloss - $10 at Target. Also I have an old Crunch Pilates DVD that I love as well, that was $10.00 at WalMart.
I am just looking for some great new video's that aren't too hard (beginners, but with a little challenege) and that are realitvly cheap, and pretty sure everyone can benefit from others ideas as well on here.

Thanks everyone! :)
Happy Friday! :)

    Try Denise Austin's 3 week bootcamp .. It's $10, pretty good challenge but not impossible. She goes through routines somewhat fast (if you've ever watched her shows, you know what i mean) so you may have to go through it a few times to get the hang of it before you "officially" start. Worth the money though .. I could feel it in my muscles the next day over :smile:

    Good question. I would love to know a good beginners stretching video.

    Jillian Micheal's videos are pretty inexpensive 9 dollars at walmart for the 30 Day shred.

    Some of the Biggest Loser workout DVDs are great for beginners. An example would be the Biggest Loser workout vol. 1

    If you like something kind of fun. All of the Dancing with the Stars videos are good. And you are not only working out but learning some great moves!

    Jillian Michaels and Biggest Loser have some Cheap workouts. I also do the Bollywood Workouts which are around $10-15$. Collage Video ( http://www.collagevideo.com/ ) has a great variety and fast shipping. Plus you can preview the workouts (short video clips) before you buy. Check them out for some great workouts.

    Do you have Netflix watch instantly? There are a ton of really good ones to get instantly on there! Otherwise any Jillian Michaels are awesome! I also like the 10 min solution ones just do 2-3 of them at a time (the bootcamp is my fav)! Good luck!

    My local library has a HUGE selection. I take out one or two at a time and then I can buy the ones I like and return the ones I don't like. I'll be honest, I have a pretty short attention span- most of them just get returned!

    That was my suggestion too. May be more intense than what you're looking for right now but they're great, and cheap :)

    Jillian Michales.
    No More Trouble Zones is my fav
    30 Day Shred is good
    Burn Fat Boost Met - this is a killer cardio!
    Yoga Melt Down - eh - just ok.

    All under $10 at Walmart or amazon.com

    www.exercisetv.tv has a lot of free workout videos and a bunch more available for download for anywhere from $3-15. You can also access it OnDemand via certain cable companies.

    Anything by Bob Harper or Jillian Michaels - most of which are $9 at Walmart. But they are both great workouts - they have different levels to build up to and they are fun and challenging.

    No, I just found it this week and started with the 10 Pound Slimdown. I'll have to look that up... once I'm in better shape. :laugh:

    The Island Girl workouts are really fun. You can get a two-pack on Amazon.com for $10, they have hula and Tahitian dance. I have the Tahitian set, and they're very low-impact but they really work your legs. Plus, it's addicting!

    Do you have cable television? You might look at the fitness channels because those would be FREE! I have Comcast cable, and we have a section called "On Demand." Within the On Demand channels is one devoted to fitness and exercise. I can do Tae Bo, Biggest Loser workouts, Firm workouts, about 40 to choose from and all come with my Basic Cable.

    Oh really??? I'll have to check, I see Yoga on the Satellite but it's never on at a good time. Although my baby girl likes to do yoga too hehehe. She's a pro at Down Dog and Cobra.

    Thanks for the link to http://www.exercisetv.tv/workout-videos. i really want to mix it up, but don't want to spend money on a dvd that's cheesy.

    Other recommendations like Zumba, turbo Jam, Belly booty Ballet??? any of those good.

    I love love love TaeBo with Billy Blanks. The videos are a little more expensive but usually come with bands or some exercise tool to use with it. You get results fast and he's so inspirational. Any age group can do it!!

    Have you thought about getting a projogger, or mini trampoline. I have one and it's awesome. It's really gentle on all of your joints.

    I just mainly do jogging and some other moves, I need to find a workout dvd for it too.

    They have them all over even Walmart carries them. I got mine for $12 it was marked down 50% off at the Sears Clearance Center.

    I've been streaming workout videos on Netflix, and I've been enjoying the Crunch series a lot. They seem to have really good instructors and are a nice length and good balance between ease and challenge. Same with the Self Magazine videos. I really like "Your Best Butt, Fast' - seriously works those glutes!

    It looks like you can get a lot of them used for just a couple of bucks on Amazon.

    And for stretching - LOVE Sara Ivanhoe's gentle yoga videos. She's great to watch and listen to - good for the mental/emotional and physical aspects both. She's just matter of fact and encouraging, not..mm...too spiritual, KWIM?
