I found this on vlog on youtube and I thought it might help with anyone seeking workout videos. They have different intensities and tons of different types of workouts. They also have warm up and cool down videos too.

Hey, you think you can find a video about getting abs or biceps >_> or something that motivates me. I've been trying to get muscles. I even went so far as to buy protein bars and some weights. My a** is able to stick to it for a week, but after that I'm like "******** it". If you can find a video, please post it.

Hey at least you can stick to it for a week. I can only go for 3 days before I just give up getting up early and working out and I stay in and sleep. I know it's a lot of hard work, but I'm sure it pays off with time. I guess it's just to develop habit of working out and stop listening to the voices that say "******** it. I'm over this". I listen to them way too much, but I want to change that.

true. I'm planning on buying an ongoing membership at 24 Hour fitness. I think its best to work out in the middle of the night instead in the morning cause this is literally my last year of P.E. so I need to train my body to accept excercising daily. But I'm surely going to watch the vids you sent me. I remember doing an ab work out for two hours. My whole torso felt like hell. I couldn't bend or twist for about a week. Think Iover worked myself a bit too much

I've heard good things about 24 hour fitness. I can't afford a gym membership right now, but I keep seeing gyms pop up in my neighborhood. Hmmm, I never thought of working out in the middle of the night. I think I might try that. I always go in the morning and I'm always so lazy and want more sleep instead of working out, but I'm wide awake sometimes in the middle of the night. I hope those videos help. Woah, 2 hours? Wow, hard core workout there. I can barely keep going for 20 minutes without something just burning and me giving up lol.

Yep, two full hours. I mean I was way past being fatigue within the first 45 minutes, but I'm sometimes hardheaded. But yeah, I highly suggest going to a gym I'm in the middle of the night instead of day. Less people, more equipment available for use, "Cooler" and I think its better to focus and s**t. I went in the middle of the night three times with my step mom, and I must say its far more beneficial than day. if you don't want to pay that much for a member ship, probably find a friend who is willing to split the membership bill. That so you both won't have to pay much, and you get a second free membership.

I can't afford the gym even with a friend splitting the bill. I have to stick to online videos and library books for now. Yeah I have a friend that goes to 24 hour fitness around that time of night too. She always enjoys how there are plenty of machines are available and no one is looking at her while she works out. She gets the 3 year passes I think that you get at Costco. They are expensive, but since she goes so regularly I think it's worth it for her. I have a bike I made into a stationary bike here at home so sometimes I ride it and watch some random tv show while I'm on there.

I know this is an older post and a few months have passed, but I'd just like to give you a few tips to help out.

* Your first and or routine workouts shouldn't be more than 20-40 minutes and start with an exercise that gets your heart rate up, then move onto full body exercises for the first week before you move onto core, strength workouts or muscle building.

* One of the most important rules of a workout is giving your body rest. As the workout will break down the muscle tissue, the body will then take from whatever energy resource it has; usually fat (calories). So after your workout take 1-2 days of rest before hitting the gym again. This is a must for your tissues to build back up.

* Protein bars aren't what you want to be eating, same goes with most protein shakes. They tend to have sugars that won't help with your workout. If you can get those same bars or shakes without the sugar or any MSG, then go right ahead. It's best to snack on small portions or fruit, veggies, high fibers, and of course protein ( white meats, usually chicken and fish ), through out the day.

* It's best to work a certain area of the body like lower half/legs, abdomen/back, upper-body.
Either focus on only that area for that day or even the whole week. Or break it up into different parts for different days.
Example: Monday - Legs, Tuesday - Rest, Wednesday - Upper-body
Or: Monday - Arms/Back, Wednesday - Legs/Glutes/Lower body

So basically, get a lot of rest after a workout, stay away from sugar, drink a lot of water, take B12s and electrolytes to replenish what you're sweating out and fish oils with omega 3 fatty acids which will give your skin the oils it needs to stay firm and tight when losing weight.

- I'll add more to this later, hope it helps you out
