Oh darlin', you have come to the right place. I am an exercise video junkie. Let me categorize for you.

1) Aerobics/weights/Aerobic Weight Training. I love The Firm. If I could only own one exercise video it would be their very first tape, Body Sculpting Basics. The instructor is very personable but not perky, and the workout is a killer. Pretty much anything by the Firm is good, including their new ones, which you can check out at Firm Direct. You can also read about some of their older workouts at Amazon. I also like Kathy Smith's workouts, especially Lift Weights to Lost Weight and the Kickboxing Workout. Other popular instructors are Karen Voight and Cathe Frederich. If you're a little more advanced, you might like the FitPrime workouts. They're done by Anna Benson, the same woman who started the Firm. She is a genius, her workouts are tough yet unique and fun.

2) Pilates/Yoga/Dance. I recommend the Jennifer Kries trio: 3-Dimensional Toning, Precision Pilates, and The Perfect Mix. Jennifer is very graceful and in tune with her body, her workouts are very different from the average yoga/Pilates workout. Other good Pilates workouts: Winsor Pilates, Stott Pilates, and Kathy Smith's Pilates for Abs. You can get them all through Collage Video.

I'll probably post more later as I think of videos. Enjoy!
