Billy Blanks - Tae-Bo Cardio DVD
By crunkyjens onI can remember when Billy Blanks first came on the workout scene years ago with his Tae-Bo workouts.They were a hit then and they are still a hit now.Recently I picked up one of his workout DVDs to actually see what all of the hype was and to see if I would enjoy the workout.I ended up getting Tae-Bo Cardio and it was a pretty good workout, not as intense as I would like, but it definitely got my heart pumping.
Billy starts you out with a deep breathing warm up to get your heart pumping.He then starts into his sequence of moves.Now I have not done Tae-Bo before but I have done a lot of workout videos before so it didn't take too long for me to pick up the moves and start punching away.However I think if you were a true beginner to workout videos or even working out in general it might take a little bit longer to pick up on the steps Billy puts you through.
The music is a little bit repetitive at times and the moves could be a little bit more challenging but overall I feel that it gives you quite a good workout.It gets the blood pumping and the sweat flowing which are deifnitely what should happen when you workout.I might pick up another one of his videos in the future, but probably only if it's on sale.
I will probably just rent the tae-bo video from the library. Thanks for the info. I also remember when these were all the rage and you couldn't turn your television on after 3am without a billy blanks infomercial!
Wow, you must be in really good shape for these not to be totally intense for you, I applaud that. I got the Billy Blanks vidoes years ago when they first came out when I was younger and in better shape. They were nearley the death of me. Wow they were hard. You go girl.
I would be a beginner and it sounds interesting. Thanks
I had one of these videos and I didn't do too well with it. I ended up trading it in for a less challenging workout video. If you can keep up with Billy...then this would be a great video for you...for me not a good choice.
I have one and I love working out with Billy Blanks!
The Billy Blanks Taebo Workout Tapes sound like they are fun and motivating.
I got one of these when they first came out. It was a great workout.
Billy Blanks' workouts are so awesome-I always sweat the most when I do his workout tapes!!
I still have his first set on VHS,LOL...too bad I cant play them anymore :P
I used to have his original 4 videos & I enjoyed working out with the basic one, but I haven't gotten any of his new videos. Some of the kicks & other stuff he does, I just simply can't do & i am so uncordinated it's not even funny, so trying to keep up with the steps for me is harder than the workout. It does get your heart pumping though.
