I love exercise DVDs and am always interested in hearing about good ones. Currently, I really like Amy Dixon's Breathless Body series. It's pretty intense but the moves aren't complicated.... as much as I love the idea of dance workouts, I end up tripping over my own feet. Jillian Michaels workouts are good too: work hard, don't embarrass myself with my lack of coordination. My classic go-to is Tamilee's I Want That Body. It helps that my husband will do that one too so I always have an exercise partner. Any DVDs you'd recommend?

    I really enjoy beach body's slim in 6....it uses aerobics for cardio and then moves into pilates, yoga and uses resistance band for toning and strength.

    Focus T25! Though with Insanity, you'll get better results, well based on my experience at least. I started out with Insanity then I moved to T25.T25 is just never boring for me. If I feel lazy, the modified moves are VERY helpful. Insanity can get a bit boring though but it delivers. T25 only toned my body and I only had a small weightloss, considering that my BMI was 21 already at that time, I am only shedding vanity pounds. Maybe because of my diet snce I didnt change it but idk. if you have a lot of weight to lose and you haven't been on Insanity yet, I highly recommend Focus T25 because most likely it will give you amazing results

    I hadn't heard of Focus T25 but I'll look into it. I don't have too much more weight to lose but I'm always looking to get stronger.

    I love Leslie Sansone. I also like Jessica Smith (you can watch all her videos for free online). Fitness Blender is good too but more advanced than I'm ready for (also free online). I've done a Biggest Loser DVD and about died.. but it was a good workout.

    Little tip - if you buy any Beach Body dvds.. look on ebay. Much cheaper.
