Welcome to the boards! I like Walk away the Pounds by Leslie Sansone, but I've recently been getting into the FIRM tapes which are much more challenging! I can only do so much of them at a time, but I figure if I keep it up, pretty soon I'll be able to do a whole tape at a time. Do you have any favorites, or are you just starting out and trying to find something to get you started? If you're just starting out, I recommend Leslie Sansone's Walk away the Pounds because although it's challenging, the moves aren't difficult to do. There's a lot of knee lifts and kick backs, but nothing too complicated. Good luck!

For toning I love Tamilee Webb's I Want that Body DVD version. I mean the moves and all are so simple and basic for most of it (some are tough-especially the abs section) but they are combined in a sequence that really works and I still feel them no matter how much I do the tape (just add weights when the moves become easier). Especially for the abs which I usually would just do alone because most of the ab tapes didn't seem to do much except in like 1 or 2 exercises. But with this tape I actually feel it and see results. And the butt part (especially the 2nd workout) is the first workout I really ever felt in my butt -usually I just feel them in my quads even with correct form since you work to your weaker muscle (quads in my case I guess) I would always fatigue my quads before ever getting to the point of really feeling it in my butt even though its working (even with all the Firm Fanny Lifter stuff). Plus I like that its more concentrated strength than the Firm where I would have to do a bunch more exercises after the tape to work some of the muscles that were left out and you can choose 15 minute segments or 30 minutes or do all of it together (about an hour). And for most of the exercises it also tells you why its working so it helps you better understand correct form and how it should feel. The only thing I can think of bad about the DVD is that it should also include a back section (some is with the arms though).
