If you could only have a collection of 10 workout DVDs, what would they be?

[Bebop]

Fun thread on a misserable day.

My list, not necessarily in order of favorite:

1. Firm Classic Vol 1 - (my desert island workout)
2. Alter of the Heart yoga
3. Super cuts from X-train
4. Joyce Vedral Bottoms Up Gold
5. Cathe Step/Jump/Pump
6. Imax 2
7. Cathe Cardio & Weights
8.. one Turbo fire - probably a longer one -
9. Cardio Coach Vol 3
10. Kick/Punch/Crunch (but I had a hard time picking just one Cathe Kickbox because I love them all.)

Now I should make up a rotation using these workouts.

[DirtDiva]

1. Cathe Muscle Max
2. Cathe Muscle Endurance
3. Cathe Pyramids
4. Cathe Slow & Heavy
5. Cathe Gym Styles Legs
6. Cathe Gym Styles Chest & Tricepts
7. Cathe Gym Styles Shoulders Back & Biceps
8. Ilaria Powerstrike #6
9. Cathe Tabatacise
10. Cathe High Reps


And I'm holding my STS Set in my hands right now...na-na-na!

#1 Cathe Crossfire
#2 Cathe xtrain Cardio Leg blast
#3 Tracie Long ReBoot 1
#4 Cathe Tabatacise
#5 Cathe Athletic Step
#6 Amy Bento Ross Drop Set Strength

#9 Cathe STS Meso 2 Hypertrophy week 3 disk 19 Chest Shoulders Triceps

#10 Cathe STS Meso 2 Hypertrophy week 4 disk 24 Back and Biceps(drop sets!)

I could think of 10 more....

thanks for asking because it made me figure out a rotation with my top 10 faves.

[ElisaB]

Oh wow, this might require more thought than I have time for, and I reserve the right to sleep over it and edit my list later on, but this is what comes to mind right now:

1. Bryan Kest's Power of Yoga
2. & 3 Turbo Fire HIIT 15 and HIIT 20
4 & 5. Beach Babe (7 workouts!)
6. TA Post-Pregnancy Workout
7. TA Dance Cardio Workout
8. Ballet Body Core
9. Physique 57 Volume 1, full workout
10. Pop Physique Original Butt

[Elzabee5]

I wasn't going to play, but kept chewing over it because I could not stop!

Strangely, I only do yoga nowadays, but there are no yoga DVDs special enough to keep if I can only keep 10.

Here's my list:

1.) Firm Vol 1
2.) Firm Vol 2
3.) Firm Vol 3
4.) Firm Vol 4
5.) Firm Vol 5
6.) Firm Vol 6
7.) Original Callanetics
8.) Super Callanetics

I am hoping I can go to live yoga classes and keep my Yoga Today subscription Cardio can always be done outside, on a machine, or at the gym, so no keeping those, either.

Interestingly (and embarrassingly!) EVERY one of these is one I own on VHS! I guess they do have DVDs, but I have a combo player and my tapes work fine (I am SO not a techie person, OBVIOUSLY)-- also, as I said, yoga is what I do now, anyway. However, these 8 give me the best results of any workouts I have ever owned, and I more or less enjoy doing them, too, no matter how dated.

These are the workouts that hooked me into exercise for life.

Any 10 Leslies.

[Lucky Star]

Wow, this is hard!!! My list has to be lunge-free and of course this may change over time, but right now would consist of:

1. Jari Love's Lean Machine (for the 30min Weights & Abs routine, great for weekday mornings)
2. Karen Voight's Great Weighted Workout (weekend routine; classic and no lunges)
3. Erin O'Brien's Strong Body, Ageless Body (has reverse lunges but this is one of my go-to favorites)
4. a KCM 30 Mins to Fitness - have to think which one
5. Firm Upper Body & Lower Body Sculpting (I have both on 1 DVD)
6. Classical Stretch Season 8 (I don't care, I consider this DVD case as one workout )
7. a pilates video, probably Molly Tittle's Quick Cut Pilates
8. a yoga video, probably Jennifer Galardi's Flowetry (but I think will be replaced by Travis Eliot's Yoga Foundations)
9. a versatile Leslie (probably Ultimate 5 Day Walk Plan or 5-Mile Fat Burning Walk)
10. a dance cardio (probably Christi Taylor's Pure Spice)

I'd rely on YouTube as a source of fresh dance cardio and other workout options.
