I am looking for a very effective, more intense type of workout that will not absolutely drain me financially...any suggestions on the best workout systems you have tried?

    go to youtube, and type in Tabata. That will give you tons of ideas, and don't require a lot of equipment.

    Try Zumba, sometime the are at local churches or at community centers for 3-5 dollars for 1 hour workout. Its lots of fun.

    I like Turbo Jam and P90X too, but anything through Beach Body is pretty expensive. My new favorite is Jillian Michels 30 Day Shred. It is quite intense, cheap (less than $15), and all you need are handweights at home. My favorite part, it's only a total of 30 minutes for working out :-) Good luck!

    My mother in law lost all her weight using a rebounder - one of those mini-trampolines. It cost her about £20 I think and she dropped 4 stone, which is just under 60lbs. Or, as someone else said, walking is an amazing workout and it's free...but not so good in the dark or when it's raining :)

    I love the Zumba classes. You sweat, sweat, sweat! I also like the "30 Day Shred" by Jillian Michaels. They work..

    30 day shred is 20 minutes, 10 bucks, and is awesome.

    I actually just bought the 30 day shred with Jillian, just wondering how well it actually works if you stick with it and everything.

    I lost 11 inches I think it really works, and that's that I didn't do it the whole month :(

    Good luck! and like someone said the road is always free :) heard great things about C25K!

    This might be a dumb question, but what is C25K? I see it all over the place, I just can't put two and two together!!
