Extreme Makeover Weight Loss Edition Workout

I believe this workout is intended for those just getting back into exercising or who have never exercised. It would probably be awesome for new moms! I find it great for getting me to move when I don't feel like doing something super-challenging. And --surprisingly-- my 2 preschool-aged children really enjoy it (more than they enjoy most kiddie workouts).

There are 3 different workouts, Level 1-3. Each level starts with a warm-up then does circuits containing of 3 or so moves. Each circuit is done twice.

Level 1 - 15 minutes

Some moves from Level 1: jump rope (bouncing on balls of feet), gentle side lunges/stretches, child's pose to cobra, pushups (hips remain on floor), side-to-side knee drops, bridge crunch with arm reach, squats, "down and ups" (going from standing to hands & knees and back up), stretch

Level 2 - 25 minutes

Some moves from Level 2: chest stretch/arm swings, side-to-side knee drops, child's pose to cobra, runner's lunge, jump rope, punching combo, skater movement, kick butts, uppercuts, modified burpee (step back & up), elbow plank with hip drop, crunch variation, superman, pushups (shows multiple variations), squats, rear lunges, stretch

Level 3 - 30 minutes

Some moves: chest stretch/arm swings, side-to-side knee drops, child's pose to cobra, runner's lunge, jab/cross/knee combo, skater move, jumprope, high knees, squats, couple of ab moves, pushups

NOTES:

The workouts are not chaptered and you have to sit through a fairly lengthy intro for each workout.
