Hi folks, I'm looking for a home workout using minimal equipment that takes no more than 30-45 mins - any recommendations? Has anyone used Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred or Ripped in 30, and is there much difference between the two programmes??

    Blogilates with Cassey Ho is so much fun. She creates a monthly calander with a workout plan for each day. A day can take anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour and 15 minutes, but it's worth it!!! I've never had so much fun working out and I've never felt so rewarded when I finish. I recommend blogilaties because it will motivate you and you will see a difference!

    I love Cassey! If you're not into pilates, try Jessica Smith tv. She has a mix of cardio, weights, barre, yoga, pilates. She also has some calendars to follow.

    It's been years since I did JM so I honestly don't remember the difference. Sorry

    I second this! I've never been one to gush over fitness stars but Cassey Ho is amazing...I even follow her on in Instagram haha. Her channel is blogilates and/or pop Pilates. Those videos will leave you sore! Highly recommend.

    Thanks so much for the input - sounds like Cassey Ho is definitely one to check out! I'll have a look at Jessica Smith too for some variety. Thanks for the ideas :D

    Fitness Blender on Youtube. They have videos for everything. Intense workouts, quick workouts, strength and cardio, low impact, etc. They are really great.

    Jessica Smith TV on you tube is great, she has lots of different kinds of workouts. 30 day Shred and Ripped in 30 are the same format, just different exercises.

    Thanks for the suggestions guys, I'll have fun checking them out! I'm starting from a really low fitness base and tried out the 30DS last night - I can barely walk this morning but I got through it :# I'll have a look at some of the others tonight :)

    BODYROCK.TV!! Omg I can't say enough good things about them!! At home workouts, totally free, and generally 8-12 minutes.
    I thought it was a joke at first but holy hell....wake up the next morning and you'll FEEL why it works!! Lol :)

    Also check out your Local Goodwill or other second hand store, usually lots of exercise vids to be had there super cheap.

    I started with Jillian Michaels 30 day shred.... Instant pain but quick results.. then did Ripped in 30, which i think is harder & follows from 30DS.

    After that there's also 6 week 6 pack and Killer Buns and Thighs!

    You can also find some other longer/shorter Jillian M vids online, Banish Fat Boost Metabolism, No More Trouble Zones, Kickbox Cardio.

    Can you tell I'm a big JM fan?!

    I also recommend Fitness blender to mix it up a bit - I like it with my own music blasting..

    Really excited to see all the Blogilates fans! I haven't been at it long (still working through the new Beginner calendar) but I enjoy it more than any other. Following it exclusively, with some light yoga on top.

    Anyone who wants a Blogilates buddy, can add me! (You do the Beginners 2.0 Calendar and then you hop onto the monthly calendar, so at that point, we'd all be doing the same workouts every day.)

    I also like:

    Yoga with Adriene
    Fitness Blender (it's effective and well designed, but I don't *enjoy* it much)
    Anything Jillian Michaels
    Jessica Smith
    Sean Vigue (he's fantastic, and mixes yoga and pilates)
    Billy Blanks (I like his boot camp series)

    I'd be up for that, jehzimom! Which of the programmes do you like the look of?

    I'm another fitness blender fan here. I love that on their page I can put time amount, type of exercise and then watch the video through you tube.

    If you like to dance I second the Club Fitz recommendation. They're loads of fun and seriously tire you out!

    I use Jessica smith TV for stretching and flexibility but she also has loads of other kinds of work outs.

    I am doing 30 day shred for lent and it's hard but I just don't find it fun at all so I have a habit of failing. (Not this time. I'm more determined than ever)

    Being a bit of a technophobe, can you tell me if these are free? Do I just go on to YouTube and search for these names?

    I love clubfitz and hasfit! Hasfit have loads of workout videos and 30/90 day structured programmes too which are great. Fitness blender is a great resource too.

    I've done the 30DS with Jillian as well and struggled to keep the motivation to finish it but I got there with perseverance xD. I enjoyed seeing how much I improved since I first started. There's lots of great things on YouTube!
