Any good fun exercise videos? - Weight Loss Message Board

Does any one have any recommendations for a good fun exercise video? I have an elipictal machine, but I also need something else. Usually, exercise videos bore me after doing them a few times so I need something fun to keep me doing it. I also hate it when the instructors on the tape talk to just hear themselves and are so annoying that I can't stand to do the tape.

So, any ideas on good, fun, interesting exercise tapes? I have heard of some such as belly dancing and other forms of dancing. Maybe I can actually learn something at the same time.

There are some ones that you might want to try:

1. Carmen Electra's Aerobic Striptease Collection - Carmen's Fitness Collection
2. Crunch Cardio Salsa
3. Richard Simmons Dance Your Pants Off (that guy cracks me up!)
4. Kathy Smith Kickboxing Workout
5. Extreme Makeover Fitness - Weight Loss Workout for Beginners
6. Bellydance Aerobics

Those are some to name a few. I hope I helped ya.

I am on my third week of Yoga Booty Ballet, and I absolutely love it! I am seeing some great results, and its lots of fun!

FrogGurl .. would you please tell me, is this one set routine, or are there several to choose from? Also, would you say it's more like dance movements or exercise or pilates or what? I'm having a hard time understanding what it is and based on your comments I'm interested in buying it but don't want to spend the money if I don't think I can do it, you know? Also, about how long are the routines? I really, really, want something for my butt and hips so is that where you are seeing results? Thanks.

P.S. Sorry about the pm's ... I'm like you, I didn't know either. Oh well. It would have been nice to have been able to talk and exchange info in pm's though.

Thanks for the input. It sounds like some of these may be just the thing to get me motivated and keep me going.
