    I am starting Blogilates by Cassey Ho. Okay, so I have only done one day, but she has free fitness calendars that change each month on her website. Along with that, she has a beginner's calendar that tells you what you need to do each day for a month. There are also plenty of recipes. All of this for free!

    Jaime Eason's Live Fit program. I loved it and highly recommend it.

    Ice Cream Fitness 5x5 is worth looking into if you are interested in lifting!

    Blogilates is funny! She cracks me up! But her online calendar for the ab challenge this month is free. Also, TravelStrong website has an EFFECTIVE 30 day squat challenge with levels.

    I have had a lot of success using Jillian Michaels DVDs. I've done 30 Day Shred, Ripped in 30, Body Revolution, and a bunch of others. Add me if you want!

    I've done Wendler 5/3/1, Stronglifts 5x5 and P90X 1, 2 & 3. I enjoyed them all and got results from each. Right now I'm on a program called the LRB Template (Lift, Run, Bang) written by a guy named Paul Carter and love it. Depends on what type of stuff you like to do.

    Awesome! I haven't heard of most of those programs. How are the results

    It depends on the goals. I really had great results, weight loss, with all of the P90X programs but nutrition has to be really good. I got great strength gains with 5/3/1, strong lifts and currently have hit personal bests on all three powerlifts using Lift-Run-Bang. It really depends on your goals and equipment you have access to.

    I definitely agree with you. I tend to drop the ball on the nutrition piece, but can stick to the workouts pretty consistently.

    P90x T25 and P90x3 here. I'm looking at Body Beast. I think the diet guides are the best. I like the portion approach. I don't like counting calories.

    I started out with the 21 day fix workouts and then moved onto various popsugar fitness workouts and cafe moms studios. I am on day 9 on the 30 day shred and so far, love it. I plan on moving to ripped in 30 next.

    I am doing a Fitness Blender program and I'm really enjoying it. Quick, easy, burns and the exercises aren't the typical ones I've done in other programs. =)

    I think this is most of us :p It's all about consistency and finding a plan (nutrition and fitness) that can keep you going. That's why I'm not doing any of the P90X series right now. I got bored and frustrated, if that's possible. There were a lot of things I couldn't do well because I lacked the strength and some things that were too easy. So I broke camp and decided to work on my weaknesses in a different way, powerlifting in a caloric surplus. "Training" as opposed to exercising has kept me motivated. Now that I've set and crushed several strength goals, now I'm thinking of going back to P90x3 for my cut.

    I like to hybrid both of those programs together. I like the weight parts of p90x3 and the pushing part of insanity. It seems to work fairly well as a hybrid

    Completed P90X, Insanity, P90X3, and Body Beast. I really enjoyed P90X3 and right now I am doing Body Beast (again) while training for a half marathon.

    If you enjoy free weights, it is a great program to get into. The coach on the DVD can be annoying, but I usually hit MUTE and follow along.
