My best results have been short workouts, consistently. In the midst of babies and toddlers I was the short workout queen, and lost pregnancy weight doing 10 minute workouts, working up to 30 minute workouts and a lot of walking. I've done it all...10 MS, Powerfit, Michelle Dozios, KCM, Women's Health....if it was shorter than 30 minutes I was in.

I am pretty close to my pre-kids weight, although not the same body. I am still consistent, working out every day with CS, Ellen, walking , and Lee Holden. My diet is pretty good, although not perfect.

I haven't had a lot of luck with Beachbody. I enjoyed CLX and the easier PiYos, but I think I get bored with the format after a while. I never had any dramatic results with CLX although I did 2 rounds. It really irritated my back and hip.

I started with the one with The Firm Cardio Inferno. That was the first one. I checked out the back of the vids to see which ones were about 30 minutes. I did Total Body Time Crunch the next day. I did the shorter worker from the original Firms with Susan and Kai the day after that. Towards the end I wanted to do more weight infused workouts just to mix it up so I did The Firm with Tina leading with the bands. I used lighter weights. I also did the Nancy Tucker all step one. I will move on to more but I thought it would be good to mix them up. This week I will go up to 45 minutes since I am lighter and think I can go longer but 30 minute workouts are attractive! I have other 30 minute workouts with other instructors but it's like the Firm has the method.
