need a realistic work out dvd

I am 9 months pp and have been at my pre preg weight since about 12 weeks - so i didnt put much emphasis on working out bc it came off on its own.... which was great at the time :) now that its warm, and i am in shorts and tanks, i see just how "out of shape" i am! I have researched dvds for home workouts bc i need to tone up. I want something I can squeeze into my insane schedule... I am not looking for something that takes 60-90 min 6 days a week... any suggestions?

    Most videos by Jillian Michaels are 2030 minutes long.


    I second that. I'm not really into DVDs, but I did start the 30 Day Shred at 4 weeks pp, and for a 20 min workout, it's a really good workout!

    I am a fan of hers.  I used to have 30DS, but lent that to a friend a few years ago.  I have Yoga Meltdown and Six Pack Abs and love both (the yoga I try to do one of the two workouts daily).

    If you are just lookihng to tone up and not necessarily loose weight, power yoga is great and there are some wonderful DVDs out there. Bryan Kest's Power Yoga series has three hour long classes, Baron Baptiste--Trainer's Edge is one of my personal favorites, but any of his are good.  any of the Shiva Rea's also are effective and you can do mix and mathcing with those, so you won't get bored.
  • There is an awesome website I discovered through pinterest that offers on demand workout videos for free. Most are 20-30 minutes long. It is called shareitfitness.com. I haven't done any of the videos yet, but did watch a couple and they have good quality.

  • Another vote for Jillian. I also like looking for videos on demand via cable. Good luck!

    I have the 30 day shred.  It's intense but only 20 minutes.  I also got Jillian's Yoga Meltdown which is a 30 minute work out.  I started working out by alternating between these two videos.  I still do these and I get extra exercise by going for long walks now that the weather is nice. 

    I also have a pilates DvD called "Pilates, Beginners and Beyond".  It has a ton of different routines at varying lengths. Some are only 10 minutes. They have longer routines as well.
