I want to order a workout DVD to do at home. I don't have any equipment or weights. Any favorites
or suggestions?

    Hi there! I really like Slim in 6! It's one of the Beach Body products. I have LOTS of exercise DVD's and so far this is my favorite. Comes with resistance bands so you get the cardio and strength training....You can read about it at Beachbody.com. They have all kinds of programs, and I have quite a few of them (among others), but Slim in 6 is my favorite!! Good luck!! :happy:

    I love The Firm DVDs, hand weights are optional on most of them. Collagevideo.com is a great place to search for fitness DVDs.

    this is the best website I've ever found
    http://www.collagevideo.com/

    This website has nearly every workout ever made. It has a listing of staff favorites, every video is rated by the staff. Even better - you can watch clips of the videos to see if you even like them. I can't tell you how many times I've bought one, got home, and can't stand the host - therefore I never do it again. The prices are good too!

    Congrats on the motivation! I am a TurboJam chick all the way! Chalene Johnson is a GREAT trainer, very high-energy and gets you PUMPED! I can't imagine not doing TJ now..it's like cardio-kickboxing! She's got so many different DVD workouts, though I would suggest starting with the TurboJam 5 workout DVD Set. It has the Learn and Burn session to help get you used to the moves and get started! Hope this helped!:happy:

    I got this dvd from a online friend at realage.com and its a great workout. You will love the title ...
    Tank Top Arms..Bikini Belly...Boy Shorts Bottom with Minna Lessig.
    I cant do all the Bikini Belly stuff (thats probably why I dont have a bikini belly):frown: but like all dvd you just do what works best for you and skip the rest.::bigsmile:
    The collagevideo.com sounds like a great place to check it out.
    Good Luck

    I am currently doing the 30 day shred and am loving it. I am interested to read good reviews on others though. I am halfway through this dvd and not sure it will be as effective after the 30 days. I have heard good things about Jillian Michaels other dvd's though.

    The thing I like most about this workout is that it is intense, but only 25 mins. I am strapped for time. I could probly do less fb and more workout some nights though.

    I have digital cable and in the On Demand menu they have free exercise videos. I don't think it's the entire video but it does give you a pretty good idea of how the video is and the effectiveness of it. Today I did one of the Biggest Loser videos and Bob kicked my butt.

    I really like Jilian's 30 day shred. You only need hand weights and there are three levels so you can switch things up through out the week.

    Does your library have any for you to try? That is what I have been doing, keeps it interesting. One I did buy for myself was Core Rhythms.

    Everyone has made great suggestions. I happen to LOVE all of Jillian Michael's workouts. I would recommend you get some weights for muscle toning and extra calorie burning. It's not expensive. About 10-15 dollars for a pair usually. That's all the equipment I ever need for exercise videos.

    I got Jillian Michael's Banish Fat Boost Metabolism. I love it! Well actually, I hate it. That's why it's great. No weights or equipment. It kicks major butt!

    I ended up buying 3 Jillian Michaels DVDs off of Amazon. (I had a small giftcard)

    While I was at it, I got a workout mat and some 5 lb weights to start with.

    Thanks for all of your input. Hopefully the next time I'm bored at home I will do a workout DVD instead of watch TV. :)
