Hi everyone... I am a single mom who just cant get to the gym some days.. but I hate not working out everyday.. so I am wondering if there are some great at home videos or something you can suggest. I dont particullary wanna go and buy all the equipment for home.. would rather use the gym membership i pay for to do that.. but just a good hard cardio workout that I can get with some toning too... please remember i am still working on this and am not in top shape ..YET... and to be honest.. insanity and p90x scare the ever living beep outta me.. lol

thanks for your suggestions..

    Another single mama here, so I know what the struggle.

    I have Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred and it's a great at-home workout. Only 20 minutes, some cardio, some lighter weights, can be done in a small space, easy to modify to whatever your fitness level may be.

    Some nights I want to get in some movement but not full-on cardio and yoga is the right "speed." I really like yogadownload.com. They have a huge variety of yoga styles and many of the 20 minute videos are free to download, or you can pay a minimal amount to download longer versions of each class.

    If I had the money, I'd get a Wii or Kinect to be able to do the exercise/dance games from home. I've done them at friends' houses and they are a very fun way to get a workout in!
