Billy Blanks Tae Bo Cardio Dvd By crunkyjens on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
I 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.
