    Videos - anything by Leslie Sansone (can be found at Wal-mart, Target, and Amazon.com)
    Gym Machines - treadmill, elliptical (easy for some, very odd-feeling for others), and recumbent bike

    Hope this helps!

    I did Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred a while back and it's a great workout!

    As for the gym, I stick to the elliptical, glider and treadmill on cardio days.

    I stick to the elliptical because it's easier for me to self pace than a treadmill. I have taken a zumba class and a yoga class at my gym. Zumba was fun, but it was really more an hour of random flailing than anything really resembling dancing! I LOVE my water aerobics class. As for videos, I have the Biggest Loser Cardio Max DVD and I LOVE it. There's stuff in it I can't do, but I just try to keep my body moving during those parts.
