What is highly effective for both men and women and what never would be boring is a kettlebell. Just twenty minutes or so and you'll get a super-effective cardio and core training. It's a Russian tool originally, but I only started to use it last winter here in US. The best system to start from is SKOGG System. Michael Skogg teaches proper technique very well. You can also buy a cheaper DVD by Jillian Michaels called Shred-It with Weights. To swing a kettlebell is not an easy task, I'd recommend for average man in a reasonable shape to start from 12 or 16 kilogram, for a woman - to start from 6 or 8 kilogram (it's a tradion to measure kettlebell weight in kilograms.)
