it's never that easy, but you don't have to spend big money and can do a lot of stuff at home with bodyweight.

Madalton try some burpee jumps and get one of those door way chinup bars, crank up your favourite fast paced music and do those two exercises, go for as long as you can stand even if its 2 minutes you will progress from there. You do almost every muscle group with those two exercises alone and all those dvd's basically do the same but more movements to make it seem more legitimate.
