Good DVD workout for beginners?



Recommended Posts

I have a huge collection of Leslie Sansone videos. She incorporates even light jogging into some of them' date=' and has tons of videos with walk boosters(stretchie bands, walk belt, weights, etc). LOVE her and her positivity![/quote']

I wish I could. It messes me all up. For whatever reason, I guess I have to listen.

I walk outside as much as I can, but I need an option for those days I cant get outside (rain, or high humidity). It was over 100 degrees in my area last week, and 90% humidity, too hot to walk outside! :-) Thanks for all the help.

I recommend The Biggest Loser DVDs. They're great for beginners with simple moves like jumping jacks, push-ups, jumping rope, etc. My favorite at the moments is Last Chance Workout. Many find Julian attitude tough but she's not that bad. I have to admit I love Bob energy style more but some of his workouts seem more intense, fast and high impact. Don't be intimidated by them. You can go at your own pace.

By the way, Bob Harper has an amazing deal on his workout DVDs. I am not sure if it is a special promotion or the DVDs are a loss leader for something else, like the monthly membership. Or Maybe Bob is just being plain altruistic in his desire to help people achieve their fitness goals.

Each DVD is 3.99 from his website www.mytrainerbob.com.

I really enjoy his training style and see he has some new ones I do not have. Last night I put in an order for the Total Body Transformation, kettle bell sculpted body and Totally Ripped Core DVDs. I have already done his Inside Out Training program and that, my friends, is hard and an hour well spent for the length of following this training. I am thinking of doing the Inside Out DVD some more with slightly heavier weights then before (15 lb instead of 10 lb).

They can be conveniently paid for with PayPal. It is a win win win situation to pick up these DVDs at 3.99.

I have 2 Bob Harper DVDs and after doing them, I really want to kick Bob in the nutsack. His smugness just flies all over me. I have heard though that Jillian Michael's front side/back side work out DVD is excellent.

Lmao! I have a vivid imagination. What can I say? :) I guess I do not pick up on these vibes like you do. I just like the way he drills into you. That is what I like about a trainer. I think you have to strut a little ego once you get good at what you do. Just not in a way that is going to get a kick. :)

I do Jillian Michaels 30 day shred, there is advance and not so advanced. I haven't lost weight but I have lost inches for sure and I look like I'm starting to tone. $8 at Walmart. I have 5 days left. It is worth a shot!

Any recommendations for a good beginners workout video? I have one of the dvds from the shapley girl series, but its boring, and too easy. I looked at the Extreme weight loss or biggest loser ones, but I am afraid they will be too hard. I need something for just starting out with a high BMI. Any suggestions?

Right after surgery (when I was cleared by my doctor) I started the slim in 6 series from beachbody. It was easy enough for me to do (involved 3 and 5 pound weights that my doctor said I could use). The slim in 6 program as a whole is a great workout routine to get back into working out and gave me great results that pushed me to try other beachbody programs that I have loved, turbofire and the new focus T25 that I've had such incredible results with. All that pushed me to be a coach as well because the programs have such great results and there is always a way to modify them to make them work for you and still get fantastic results. If you want anymore info on the programs feel free to ask me any questions you may have or I have a website www.beachbodycoach.com/coachrobinbreit I definitely recommend checking out their programs, they have something for everyone.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
