i have recently started doing the 30 day shred which i am loving, but want to mix things up a bit as i get bored. what are the best ways to tone up your legs, stomach etc? i also want to lose more body fat and get lean! i currently weigh about 120 pounds. this isn't a weight loss regime, more of a toning plan.

    I am loving turbofire, its more high energy than 30 DS. I am currently doing both programs, alternating. I feel that turbofire is more cardio heavy and 30DS is more toning.

    Good luck =]

    thanks for the tips! i am not sure what turbofire is because i haven't heard of that in australia (maybe i am not looking hard enough). i have a tracy anderson dvd but i dont like it as her instructions and direction are crap. i will see if i can find some zumba and give that a go :)

    I love beachbody workouts too, but I will offer something that doesn't require buying something through a website...

    Since you don't want to lose weight anymore, the best thing you can do for your body is lift heavy weights. This will be the best and fastest way to "tone" your body. You don't have to spend more than 45 minutes in a gym every other day. No cardio required, unless you just want to.

    I personally used the beachbody programs to lose weight. Now that I am switching over to just shedding fat and getting lean and toned, I am migrating over to my local gym so I can use barbells, kettlebells, and a wide variety of free weights and weight machines to help me reach my goals.

    I use an indoor rower. It works the whole body and particularly great for working the core and legs. They say doing an hour on the rower is like doing 1800 situps.
