Here's a few I think are good, basic workouts with good instruction.

I highly, highly recommend Erin O'Brien's Strong Body, Ageless Body.
It is, as the description states, "back-to-basics fundamentals" taught by a "down-to-earth, straightforward instructor" using a focused, personal trainer style. She even uses just one pair of weights throughout - she recommends from 3 to 8 lbs - to keep it simpler (less intimidating?) for newbies. Erin is very encouraging, offers multiple options and the exercises are doable for those with limitations: reverse lunges instead of forward ones, no pushups or burpees, etc. Yet it's challenging and results-oriented. The whole video is a little over 40 minutes but it can be shortened to standing only. Its only flaw is a miscount on the side-lying section during the floorwork (2nd half). It's a wonderful section but she does more reps on the first side. How I fix it is by repeating that bit when I do my second side. It's a little annoying but the video is so good I overlook it. This video is one of my Desert Island picks for sure and will always be.

Amy Dixon Beginner Strength from Exercise TV
This one is only 20 minutes, but I love it! My favorite part is at the end where you do pushups and Amy tells you "Don't get scared"!
I do this workout whenever I don't feel like doing anything- it hits everything. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSeVVcGMNKQ |
