These are all DVD programs that follow a rotation calendar and will give you excellent results. The calendar tells you which DVD to do on each day. I'm an at-home exerciser and I really like rotations because there's no thought involved in which DVD to plop into the player.



Add "Insanity" to the list. It's another BeachBody program like P90x and ChaLean Extreme. It's a set of 10 DVDs and doesn't require you to buy any equipment.

I think I'm the quoted pp and I just signed up for another session. I need the accountability to get me to the gym.

I love Body Rock- free videos for workouts that are 12 minutes or less- perfect for mamas on the go.

Anything by Gilad is awesome and his abs work-outs are the best!

I've thought about doing Couch to 5K, but I really don't enjoy running and I find it mentally challenging. That's the type of program I'm looking for, though, only I'd like it to be focused on strength-training.

You could try The New Rules of Lifting for Women. It's a book, with a seven-stage program that lasts about 6 months. You need a gym to do all the exercises as written.

Couch to 5k? It's onyl a running program, but I found it to be vigorous. Especially around 5+ weeks. Now that it's starting to get warmer, it would be an excellent program to do outdoors.

I'm good about exercise when I have someone telling me what to do or a checklist to follow, which is why I love working with a personal trainer. Unfortunately, I don't have the funds to do that indefinitely. Are there any good resources for home or gym-based exercise programs? In another thread someone posted www.onehundredpushups.com which looks exactly like what I need, but I'm looking for more variety (pushups, squats, lunges, tricepts, abs, etc.). I'd like to find a fitness checklist I can follow 2-3 days/week, and ideally a program which gets progressively more difficult over time. I don't mind paying a fee, either. Any suggestions?
