Chalene Extreme by Beach Body (Chalene Johnson) is nice for beginners. And Chalene appeals to many women.

I personally Like P90x with Tony Horton a bit better myself, (also Beachbody) which can also be used by women. But many women find his workout style a bit more intimidating.

Both are good full body workouts however. Just a personal preference.

All can help you get started

Definitely try the Firm OMG!! All there tapes are so great you can find and view their stuff and tons of others at www.collagevideo.com!! Good luck and remember strong is the new sexy, the more muscle you have the more fat you burn!!

I am personally loving anything Jillian Michaels.....I can totally see a difference in my arms, abs and legs. It is an all over workout no matter what DVD you get. I just started 30DS and am already feeling the difference!

I think I'm going with Les Mills Pump starting in August. It comes with a barbell and 5 and 10 lb weights...plus the DVDs and a 90-day schedule.

Thanks for the ideas - bumpity for later.

I have done Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred and I'm now in the middle of Chalean Extreme. Both incorporate weights and encourage you to lift as heavy as you can. I'm happy with both programs. 30DS you do every day for a month. Chalean Extreme has 3 days a week of weight lifting as well as two days a week of a more aerobic video. CE costs a lot more, but is a three-month program.

I am in my last week of ChaLean extreme (90 day program) and it is awesome. I start Les Mills Pump next week. I am so excited by the results I have gotten from Chalean.
