The Most Talked About At Home Fitness Workouts Giveaway

This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by. The winner is Andrea S. Congrats!!

Every year around this time, I aspire to develop some type of regular exercise routine. Before I got married and had children, I enjoyed running and taking fitness classes at our local gym. At that time, it was easy to get to the gym without having to worry about child care or another person’s schedule. Of all the resolutions, this is the one I find most challenging as it requires incredible amounts of discipline, support from my husband (in the form of child care), and personal motivation.

Many years ago, at home fitness programs were outdated, unchallenging, and a bit cheesy. But with many women and moms looking for ways to stay in shape without having to secure childcare or work around schedules, these types of programs are regaining popularity, particularly as creative, engaging workouts are developed that are right on par with classes you might find at the gym.

Last week, the latest Yahoo! Shine Get It Guide topic was released. Women are searching for and talking about the best at home fitness programs available today. So which programs are generating the most buzz and being hailed as the best at home fitness programs?

INSANITY Fast & Furious: 20 Minute Maximum Fitness Results Workout DVD: Get ready to “dig deep” as you’re pushed beyond your comfort zone to achieve real results in just 20 minutes each day. No weights…no equipment…. Personal trainer Shaun T takes you through plyometric drills on top of nonstop intervals of strength, power, resistance, ab, and core training moves. From the looks of it…the workout, and the results are insane! : )

Personal Training with Jackie: Crunch-Free Xtreme Abs – If there is one area of fitness that many women struggle with, it’s strengthening and toning their abs. Can you really attain the abs you want without doing a single crunch? Celebrity fitness trainer and author Jackie Warner believes you can. Sculpt your abs and strengthen your core with 15 minute workouts that are performed standing and on the floor.

GoFit Kettlebell with Bob Harper Training DVD – The Biggest Loser trainer Bob Harper obviously knows a thing or two about fitness and strength training. His innovative techniques incorporate the use of kettlebells to build lean muscle and burn fat through precision targeted strength training.

Zumba Fitness – For those of you who enjoy dance-based fitness classes, Zumba is fun, effective, and the program I’d be most inclined to stick to. This Latin-inspired dance-fitness program blends upbeat international music with easy-to-learn dance steps to form a ’fitness-party.’ Since it’s debut in 2001, it’s become the world’s largest and most successful dance-fitness program with over 90,000 classes in more than 110 countries across the globe.

Since I’ve always had an affinity for dance-based workouts, I decided to try the Zumba Fitness Total Transformation System DVD Set which includes 4 DVDs and two toning sticks. This is a total body workout that’s both engaging and fun. The dance steps are easy to learn (be sure to start with the Basics Workout to learn the steps) and the music is lively and inspirational. Despite the fact that it looks more fun than effective, the workouts can be quite challenging physically. I also find that there is a lot of flexibility when it comes to your fitness level and you can workout as intensely as you feel compelled to.
