Any programs like Slim Series

I've revisited this and am getting great results from switching it up. Think my bod is not responding to heavy weights like before.

anything by Debbie Siebers is high rep, low weight (Si6, KIU, SSExp).

i can't think of other "programs" but as far as instructors, the following come to mind:

Jari Love
Cindy Crawford
Karen Voight
Gilad
Firm Vol's 1, 2 & 3

Try Jeanette Jenkins' original Cardio Sculpt. It's (currently) very inexpensive, high rep/low weight, low impact and it works!

Another excellent one from that series is Kickboxing Bootcamp, also using light weights:

Not glamorous productions but they work and (imo) they're a lot of fun.

Another instructor to try is Erin O'Brien, she has 2 excellent workouts:
- Strong Body, Ageless Body
- Strong Body, Fit Body (compound moves, a little more cardio)

These can usually be found inexpensively as well.

Marika, just so you know you've inspired me. I've been doing Firm 2 lately and my body is enjoying the lighter poundage, mostly 3s and 5s. Thanks to your post I'm also adding the videos above, including SS Tone It Up and Mix It Up. Think I'll throw in some Ellen Barrett as well.

Marika - you just picked my next rotation. Thank you! It’s been a few years since I did Slim Series and I just finished a LITE rotation so was looking for something since I’m not ready for a heavy weight rotation. This is perfect.

I’m drawing a blank as far as something similar to SS.

I started a Slim Series rotation based on this thread. Years ago I had very noticeable results from walking, SS and yoga. This will be the plan for the summer.
I feel like I've been looking for years for something similar to Slim Series and have never found it. I'm now interested in the Erin O'Brien workouts. Thank you.
