    To me, variety is the spice of life (or workouts lol) :)


    My favorite work out at home videos are: Zumba, Yoga Booty Ballet, anything Ellen Barrett makes, Jillian's 6 pack abs

    I go to Zumba classes and teach Aqua Zumba.....love it!! (I love any class though at the place I work lol)

    i did insanity last year with amazing results! you have to really be motivated and it REALLY helps to have a workout buddy for a workout that intense. i started with slim in 6 which did nothing for me. then i did chalene extreme, which showed some results and is fun if you like to lift weights. i loved insanity! it takes alot of willpower, but worth every drop of sweat!

    For cardio, it's definitely Zumba... the time flashes by and it's loads of fun.

    All of Jillian Michaels videos are top notch and I love Jillian Hough's Dance DVDs. You forget you're actually working out when you dance with her.

    I've never tried p90x or insanity. I have a previous knee injury and hear all the pylometrics you do are hard on the joints.

    My fiancé and i are doing insanity right now (in week 2 currently) and I love it! We were completely out of shape starting it and I already notice a difference. But this isn't for everyone, you definately benefit from having a workout buddy for extra motivation :)

    The key is switching it up. My favorite exercise is running because it burns a lot of calories and it is very invigorating. Plus, all you need is a good pair of shoes!

    I also do yoga twice a week and EA Sports Active 2 four times a week. I am looking to start Insanity once I complete the 9 week program on EASA2. I tried it before and made it through 2 workouts haha.

    I've only ever tried the workouts that a gym offers and a few DVDs. My favorite gym workout is by far the elliptical, but I recently tried a Jillian Michaels DVD and I LOVE it.

    I love the elliptical at the gym. I am trying to psych myself up to try the Zumba or HipHop Aerobics classes that they offer.

    I must admit Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred has been kicking my butt this week but I swear by ZUMBA! I love it! Its fun and you can easily burn about 700 calories in 45 mins!
