Hi, My name is Mark and I'm a (almost) 19 year old male. I recently lost 40 pounds since Febuary (240/199 now) with a combination of pilates, pushups and my other own exercises with a weighted vest, diet, and treadmill.

I'm looking for a more intense tape and have had extreme difficulty finding one. I'm currently doing the Accelerated Body Scultping DVD with 5 lb ankle weights on each leg.

Any help to locate a tougher tape would be appreciated. I can do this tape with some ease now and want to step it up.

i GET My TAPES AND DVDS from collage video. their have trained fitness instructors who actually do the workouts and can adivse you.

they have an 800 # as well as a website. i think they['re www.collagevideo.com

Get tae bo. the original, get ripped and tae bo live sets are the best ones.
tony little also has some descent strenth training vids provided you have the good sense to mute him

First of all, GREAT JOB on the weight loss! I know that took a lot of discipline and hard work!

I also own and like the Tony Little Tae Bo dvd and it is quite a hard workout and fun. I haven't done it in a while, but I need to pull it out for some variety - especially on days where I need to let off some steam!

I just posted this in the yoga section (don't know why) but I HIGHLY recommend "Classical Pilates Technique: Complete Mat Workout Series". I started off on Winsor as well and never really found it difficult (had very nice results however), but it quickly became boring because it moves so SLOW. I hate how she explains the moves EVERY TIME. I felt like I was just lying there half the time.

The Classical Pilates moves immediately from one exercise to the next, and has 5 levels of difficulty - up through super advanced! On the Dvd, you can just scroll down to the level of fitness you are at and do that workout. Since it moves so quickly, you get more done in less time.

They also have a "magic ring" video which is supposed to be much harder than a regular mat, but I haven't tried it. Anyway, their website is www.classicalpilates.net, but I bought my dvd on amazon.

If you'd like to branch into yoga, I recommend Rodney Yee's Power Yoga. It's tough and you'll sweat, but also relax at the same time (that's why I LOVE yoga - its got everything!). Keep us updated!

Here is the most Intense dvd you can find. I do her dvds everyday.

Fitness Trainer Jillian Michaels. She is a trainer on the Show called The Biggest loser. I am telling you she is the most hardcore trainer u can find.

Go to her website www.Jillianmichaels.com

Her website is great.

You can order her dvds on amazon or Ebay

I would go to amazon.

Look up Fitness or dvd and Type in Jillian Michaels.

All her dvds will pop up.

So you want Intense you got Intense.

If you are looking for something really challenging, go to BeachBody and look up Power 90x (P90X). If you can do that... then perhaps start looking into making a business out of it
