WW workout tapes?
 

Has anyone here tried the WW workout tapes? I'm thinking of getting them, and wanted to see if they were good.

I didn't even know they made them! Walking videos?

Well...I just bought them off of Ebay for $12 plus shipping, so in a week or so I'll post up a review of them.

A lot of "plans" have their own set of videos-like Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, etc. There are different versions-they usually release new ones every few years.
I think in general they are beginner level exercise videos-aimed at those just getting back into exercise.
Jeny Craig has gotten with Leslie Sansone for their new videos though, and I like them better than any video that JC or WW has put out thus far. I got mine from Ebay since I am not on JC, and it is a dvd called "The Strength Walk". It has a walking segment (1 1/2 mile using the 2 pound weighted balls) and then has a strength training segment. Both workouts are approximately 20-25 minutes each.

I have the Get In Shape DVD. It's my first workout video, so I can't offer advice compared to others, but I do like it. I need to do the workouts a few more times, b/c I still feel like I'm tripping over my feet trying to follow along! It has a combination of cardio (step moves, grapvines, marching) and weight training (squats, tricep extensions, kickbacks, lunges) with 3-5 pound dumbells. Each workout has a 5 monute warmup, 5 minute cooldown, and 3 10 minute circuits that consist of (I think) 2.5 minutes cardio/weights/cardio/weights?

I lent it to a co-worker, and she liked it better than her other videos, enough to buy it for $30 at the WW center.
