I already have a good strength training program so I do not want to do the PX90 or any of the jillian or bob dvds but I am looking for a great calorie burner as an alternative to running!! With the summer heat and humidity already coming, running will be a challenge unless I wake up with the sun...and honestly I can't.

Suggestions Please!

    Zumba! It's so much fun that you don't even know you're working out and it burns a crazy amount of calories if you really go all out with the movements.

    Billy Blanks bootcamp is great for cardio with strength, it includes the weighted resistence bands.

    Billy Blanks is the one...any Tae Bo work out. You can burn up to 650 an hour - it's a really awesome all over body burn and easy to moderate difficulty coordination wise.

    ZUMBA----rific! Just love it, and it will burn up the calories. I also own Biggest loser cardio max, which is good, or turbo jam~! Good luck. My fav is my zumba though.:smile:

    I am also a runner but hate having to hit the treadmill when the weather is bad. I bought the zumba dvd on zumba.com and love it (around $40 I think). it's not as high cardio as running for 45 mninutes but i'm working my abs and core more as I'm doing it and judging from how much I sweat I am sure I am buring calories. It's easy and it's lots of fun...a nice mix to weight training and running! note: i am not a dancer so I had to take advantage of the instructional vidoes in order to get a good workout. went through it twice and then I was able to jump right in.

    Turbo Fire is fun, intense and will burn some serious calories. I easily burn 500-600 in 45 minutes doing these workouts.
