Workout/Health-related Gifts- What did you get?

So, what exciting things did people get? I had several exercise items on my wish list! I got a "watch" from my hubby that checks your heart-rate and counts calories burned. My mom and dad got me Karen Voight's Sleek Essentials 3 dvd workout with the Roller. That roller helps with quite a workout! I did the Strength Effect dvd and while you're working your arms, the way you're positioned with the roller you can feel other muscles working just as hard! It was great to do the workout this morning and start to get back on track after the holidays!

It's more diet than fitness related, but I got a couple of pieces of good cookware. My old set is cheapy-cheapy, from back when I never cooked and just ate take-out all the time.

I bought myself an early Christmas gift - Turbo Jam dvd workout and I love it! My husband bought me the new Biggest Loser Cardio workout. It features all three trainers. I did 3 minutes of Jillian's cardio and thought I was going to die. I thought it was going to be easy, but she proved me wrong!

I got a step to do step aerobics with, but I need to get a DVD so I can actually use the step! :) I am excited, though. I also got some really good socks with the climalite brand.

9:52 I was brand new to step and got Cathe Friedrich's Body Fusion dvd. It was easy to learn and I sweat up a storm! I love it!

Thanks for the recommendation! I will look into that Step DVD! :)

I just looked at my Cathe Friedrich step dvd. It's actually called Basic Step and Body Fusion. It's the Basic Step part that really introduces you to how to do the moves, but it's still really a workout. Then the Body Fusion part is another workout. I ordered mine through Amazon, but Collagevideo.com has it too.
