I like Tae Bo especially as I can only motivate myself to do half an hour at the moment! Kate's Cardio Combat is pretty effective although it's a little boring. Zoe Lucker's is rubbish and so is Penny Lancaster's Ultimate Body Workout. Kathy Smith kick boxing is pretty good. Micah's pilate's isn't bad.

I did Davinas' power of 3 the day before yesterday and I can still feel it in my legs!

I attempted MOS pump it up yesterday but had to give up after the warm up and switch to a Rosemary dvd as I'm too unfit to keep up!

I think Rosemary Conley is fab for beginners as she has exercises that you can do at different levels depending on your fitness

I just got Colleen's cheesy disco fest and that's great fun.

Have to prize me off the Wii Fit with a crowbar though since it came on Friday! It's fantastic fun!

I've got too many fitness DVDs! I used to get one each time I needed to buy something from Amazon and had to spend a few more pounds to get free delivery! My favourites'd be.. "Hotpants Workout" - which is really fun after the third time when you know where to put your legs properly, "Jordan's Workout" - her voice gets on my nerves but the trainer's quite good and the moves are kickboxing-eque, and Claire Sweeney's one which is simple but effective (I do agree with you, Amy, she's annoyingly fake in the introductions!).

Davina's workouts are much too hard!

Hotpants is one of my all time favourites. However camp he is, I still fancy that choreographer.

Sadly there is not enough room in my one room to do anything like that - plus I live in a tower block on 13th floor and would get complaints if I started thumping around...


Angel D - this intrigues me about a code - I went a got a multi DVD specially cos I have a number of foreign films. It is quite hard getting multiDVD (I got one from Amazon) and I am wondering what happens when we go digital.....

I have the tae bo which is really good. I also have Carmen Electra's Fit to Strip . I just bought yogalates which is alright but has a lot of floorwork. (DUH it's yoga!)

I want to start doing a dvd in my room, i walk a lot currently and would like some extra exercise in the comfort of my own room, i might try some tae-bo as it's been mentioned a couple of times!

Jenny....

Can you tell me hwo you find Carman Electra? I've got one of her dvd's but only watched 5 mins as I feel I have to be more fit to be fit to stip! I love the concept at any rate.

I use/d Leslie Sansone's Walk Away The Pounds dvd's. You don't need a lot of room .... you can be any level ... and no complicated moves..... my kinda dvd.... pity about the hairstyles!

I love the dirty dancing workout dvd, it is so much fun, but hard work. Plus the female instructor is sooo annoying, she really pisses me off, I skip the dances taught my her.
