    Insanity, TurboFire, Chalene Extreme or Hip Hop Abs. Love them all.
    I also love bike rides with the kids, pulling the trailer with the little two for great added burn, and running when I need to clear my head ;)

    I have a 10 minute solutions- belly fat blast off that I love. I have a 1 year old and a 2 year old at home so I usually only get 10 minutes or so at a time. I also have a treadmill and an exercise bike

    adjustable dumbells (bowflex selectec, powerblocks etc) would prob be pretty beneficial for the person who does home workouts and a pull/chinup bar

    I mostly use my running shoes:) But I also have a recumbent bike and use the netflix instant workouts also. I have several work out dvds that I do on days I can't get out of the house. My husband works 24 hour shifts so on those days I usually use my bike or my dvd work outs. Even then it is hard because I have 3 kids under 4. But mostly I like running and walking.

    I use most of the things that you listed. One more thing-my fave and fined it very useful-Gymboss. Do 20sec. max/10 sec. rest x 8 of 2-arm KB swings with the heaviest kb you can do, rest for 2min. repeat 4 times-great cardio and strength at the same time. Love my Gymboss! I also have two chairs set back to back to do dips or leg raises. You can jump on a chair -box jumps. You can do push ups on a chair -hands or feet on the chair. You can do inverted pull ups on your dining table-better be a sturdy one.We have a Wii and I love Gold's Gym cardio and Dance work outs.

    I second this. If I only could have one piece of workout equipment, this would be it.
