I love my itrain workouts but usually go for the icycle or iclimb workouts. I just started downloading some iballet and istretch combo workouts.

I have done iballet 1 and istretch combo 6. I thought that they were both pretty good. Here's some links from VF with people's opinions of these workouts.

I haven't tried anything but iTreads, which I love, but I'd really love to try some iBallet. My DD wants to try it too.

Thank you everyone for your posts. Julie and Karin - could you please elaborate on the ones you tried and liked? There is so little info on the types of exercises each workout consists of. thanks so much. edie

I enjoyed the ISclupt circuit work out immensely. No equipment needed and it kicked serious butt! I forget what # it is but I think it's the only one labeled as a circuit work out and Malania (or something like that) teaches it. I think Sunny knows which one I'm talking about! I have ISculpt #1 but still haven't tried it yet. I have an IBallet but wasn't thrilled with it personally.

Hi Karin -

I just checked out the link you provided. Thanks so much - it was really helpful.

I'm in the process of deciding which itrain workouts to take with me for my 2 week vacation to Alaska! We are taking a week cruise and I am mostly thinking about getting in my workouts! I think they have a small gym on the ship and an aerobics room (to do itrain workouts).

I purchased an 80GB ipod because I thought I could download my dvds onto it and later found out it is illegal, although some people still do it. Then I also purchased a Nano 8GB ipod which is much thinner and less cumbersome (sp?) to work out with. - But I decided to keep the 80GB ipod for all of my music, yoga workouts and meditation cds. Spent a bundle of money! Ouch! but I'm happy with my purchases.

sorry to ramble! I just got excited after I read the Video Fitness reviews! Thanks again -

Edie

These sounds interesting. Where can I find and purchase them? I just opened up iTunes and tried to do a search on them and didn't find anything.
