Has anyone tried the "New York City Ballet Workout Set?" I read a couple rave reviews saying that it really tones. Then I read some that said you had to know a little something about ballet moves to keep up with the DVD.
I did the NYCB workout dvd and it does help if you know ballet but I also got the Fluidity Bar and dvd and found that to be MUCH more effective. Its amazing- you look at the dvd and are like, no way can these slow basic movements do anything but its is great for toning up. I also like to tone with Carmen Electra's Fit to Strip workout dvd and for cardio and toning I use the Firm's Cardio Blast Fast Fit dvd

I bought the NYCB (prior to your response) b/c Barnes and Noble had it in stock. I'm going to give it a try tomorrow. Normally, I do cardio (running, walking inclines, etc) 4-5 days a week and yoga 2 times a week. So, I'm hoping the NYCB will be a slower pace that sculpts and tones. I'm jotting down the names of the others you metioned too. Thanks for the suggestions/recommendations.
Callanetics DVDs are great, I would recommend it to anyone who wants to get into shape or keep in shape
Are those the deep small movement exercises? if so I did those from a book before they even put it out on video, loved them now dated myself.... and now dvd you dont say
I love any CRUNCH GYM dvd and belly dancing.I always wanted to try the new stripper workouts but don't know if you need equipment and which 1 is best if somebody could tell me I would apprechiate it and i want to try wii fit ... love fit tv.
Joyce Vedral is good for toning. When I did her workout (Definition) along with some cardio I lost weight. It isn't overly intense, it is light weights, but it is enough to build muscle to lose fat and tone.
I have ordered Power 90 and would love to tackle P90X sometime next year. I am not ready for it yet.
DH wants some Bowflex weights and I plan to get them for him for Christmas....then I will have some heavier weights too!
I recently started using "30 Day Shred" by Jillian Michaels - the trainer from "The Biggest Loser." She mixes strength, cardio, and abs. I do that and I do Zumba when I need something a little more fun.
