We are members of Netflix, and I just made a great discovery on their website. They have a feature called "Watch Instantly" where you can watch movies on your computer, and I found WORKOUT VIDEOS!! All of the "Watch Instantly" movies are free, and you can choose from seven pages of workout videos that include weight training, dance, Pilate's, kickboxing, etc. When you find the one you want to do, you just click "Play" and watch it from your computer. I just finished doing Self Magazine's Bikini Ready Fast workout. I really liked it even if I'm sceptical I'll ever be bikini ready. : )
I'm fortunate to have our big screen TV hooked up to a personal computer, so I can workout from there in the Family Room, but I've also put my laptop on top of our dresser and worked out in my bedroom.
The movies are older (approx. 2005 - 2006 range and older), but I like it because I get easily bored with a workout video, and I don't have to buy or rent these.
Works For Me! : )
This is the first WFMW I've done on my fitness blog. Welcome! If you'd like to see some of my other WFMW posts on my personal blog, Everyday Becky, you can click here.
Make sure you head back to Rocks in my Dryer for more tips.

Wow...this is great! We're Netflix members too (http://sandwiched.wordpress.com/2008/05/28/wfmw-netflix/), and I knew about the watch instantly feature, but never imagined they had so many workout videos.
By the way...check your Netflix link. Didn't work for me.
very cool! :) workout videos are cheesy, so its hard to keep a straight face if you do one over and over.
