Top 10 Workout DVDs of 2011

Top Trouble-Zone Tamer

Exhale Core Fusion Lean & Toned ($17, acacialifestyle.com)

What you'll need: a yoga mat, a chair, a pair of 3- to 5-pound dumbbells

Calories burned:* 32 per 10-minute segment

Why we love it: Consider this DVD a compilation of the most-requested spot toning: The five segments are divided into upper body, thighs, core, butt, and abs. Testers appreciated the signature mix of the Lotte Berk method, Pilates, and yoga: "something a little different than crunches and leg lifts!" Instructors Fred DeVito and Elisabeth Halfpapp, two of the founders of the Exhale Spa, are "encouraging; they explain the benefits of the move so I understand what I'm getting out of it." Testers deem the low-fuss workout "great for mornings" and the spalike DVD backdrop "relaxing and pretty."
