Comcast Customers: Great FREE workout videos

My job lately has been crazy, and it's been impossible for me to attend my gym classes. I'm not one of those people that can go to the gym and self-motivate myself to work hard.

I like ExerciseTV on Comcast OnDemand. The problem with most of the programs, though, is that they expect you to have lots of equipment (light weights, heavy weights, medicine ball, bouncy ball, bands, blech).

There is a channel on now called Jillian Michaels. Apparently, she's the personal trainer for Biggest Loser (wouldn't know, never seen the program).

At first I shrugged it away, assuming it was just a celebrity stunt, but one day I got bored and decided to do her 20 minute 30 Day Shred. It was awesome.

I've since done the 20, 40, and one hour videos. They are all great, and only require a light set of weights. She believes a lot in circuit training, and using your own body weight for resistance.

These are the first FREE workout tapes that I feel are really comparable to going to the gym. They are also approachable and not intimidating like P90X, even though they are great workouts.

If you have Comcast, give 'em a try.
