I like your plan, Lori of "sunshine" workouts - I was thinking about CS and some Gilad, Caribbean workout, etc. just for some sunshine....

Did Yoga Booty Ballet film outside? trying to remember............

They filmed some of the later Karen Voight stretch workouts outside, as were some Jane Adams Yoga. A lot of Jane Adams Yoga is gentle IIRC.

Yoga in the Garden of Serenity with Kathleen Anderson (100% sitting and gentle) was filmed outside in a pretty garden. I believe it is on YT.

Yeah, I like the Boho Beautiful YT channel vibe but alas can't do much of it.

I don't think YBB was outside but my mind is clearly not what it used to be!

I guess it's just the Jessica's, some Gilad's, and CS/Ess for my sunshine/tropical fix (same as last year). Perhaps a few of Jenny Ford's Walk Across America set that have some sunny locations, but there aren't many there that don't aggravate my knee.

Donna -- what Caribbean workout are you referring to? Jog my memory here...

  • Margaret Richard's Unplugged series is outside in some very serene locations. A couple of her other workouts are outdoors as well -- Fitness Becomes You, The Spark, Triple Threat, High Voltage, and Good N Strong if I remember correctly.
  • If you still do barre, Tendu Training Volume 3 is outdoors.
  • Wendy Ida's Fountain of You dvd is outdoors.
  • Mel B's Totally Fit
  • Frankie Essex Weight Loss Workouts
  • Caroline Pearce - 3 dvds are outdoors - Total Cardio Burn, Total Body Blitz, Total Body Burn
  • The Elle Make Better Workout - Elle Beauty Sculpt, Elle Cardio Body, and the Ell Workout Yoga

Also, Gaiam and Acacia tv had some outdoor workouts. I can't think of the names right now, but I know Patricia Moreno did some kickboxing, Debbie Rocker did walking workouts, Canyon Ranch Strong and Sculpted and some others I can't recall right now.

I do have these but gosh I'll have to get creative with modifications. At least they're sunny locations though!

Ellen's self workouts (bikini ready and slim and sleek) are filmed outside as are most of the Element series if I remember right... Yoga, pilates and Barre. Are Tracey Mallett's Fuse Dance workouts filmed outside? Or renew you maybe?

I have both Ellen's stashed somewhere, I need to find them!

I'm really just looking for beachy/sunny/tropical instead of just the general filmed outside workouts. It hasn't been above 5 degrees where I live at all today, so just looking to escape... With the Jessica's that I have, the Gilad's that I have, my Essentrics subscription, and the ones that I need to go find in my collection, I'll string together something.

Thanks all!

Lori,

To add to or clarify what has already been suggested, I offer the following:

Self Slim and Sleek Fast with Ellen Barrett
Self Firm Flat Abs Fast with Violet Zaki - both of these are filmed on the beach, full sunny day.

Caribbean Workouts are with Shelly McDonald. They are filmed in Barbados, I think. Anyway, gorgeous scenery or in front of the ocean. She does a variety of workout styles - hi/lo, weights, pilates. I especially like these for cold dreary days.

Tamilee Webb Total Stretch for Beginners is filmed on the sand in front of the ocean with sun.

Jenny Craig's Let's Walk it Off - Kim Lyons, these are filmed outside, sunny, nice scenery

Gaiam walking workouts with Debbie Rocker - these are filmed in the mountains with full sun. I have three of them - AM and PM Walking; Walk, Sculpt and Tone; and Walking for Weight Loss.

Gaiam Get Moving Walking for Weight Loss with Madeline Lewis- this one has a nice, outdoor setting that is very pleasant.

Your Personal Best workout with Karen Voight and Elle Macpherson has great tropical scenery - may have been filmed in Hawaii? But it's only on VHS.

I know of 3 Gaiam workouts filmed in sun outside. They are Cardio Cross Train Collection with Patricia Moreno with a dance, kickbox and cardio burn sculpt workouts; and I have two with Tanja Djelevic that are balance ball workouts. These are beautiful mountain scenery with full sun.

Then the Canyon Ranch Strong and Sculpted that someone mentioned which is sunny, and those Eccentrics workouts have seriously gorgeous scenery.

I found these in my collection too: an Acacia production, 3-in-1 Total Body Fitness with Desi Bartlet which is filmed on the beach
and
Beach Babe by Tone It Up with Karena and Katrina, it's a 2 disc set with 7 workouts filmed in Hawaii.

Also, maybe try a search here. I seem to remember a thread in the past about workouts filmed in sunny settings.

Hopefully you have some of these and can incorporate them into your February rotation.

(Side note: If anyone has some "sunshine" workout ideas, let me know.)
A February sunshine rotation sounds lovely! I was going to suggest some of the Element (pilates, barre, belly dance) and SELF workouts, too. Denise Austin has some sunny, outdoor workouts. Brazil Butt Lift is not entirely outdoors, but I think it would be another good option. I forgot about Tamilee's stretch DVD (great suggestion, Kim!).

Here are several YouTube options (some beachy/sunny/tropical options, but also some sunny outdoors):

Get Fit With Rick

Get Healthy U TV with Chris Freytag: Full Length At Home Workouts PLAYLIST

Improved Health - She has a lot of videos with a "beach" background. It may be a bit of a stretch, but it did give me that "sunshine in winter" vibe.
