somewhere, sometime, i misplaced my tae bo advanced dvds which are now WAY too expensive for me (but if you can afford them they're awesome). so i tried this. and honestly, i was underwhelmed. it's a great workout, just not that fun. the energy seems to just not be there as it was in earlier videos. it'll still get you looking good though :)

If you are relatively in shape, don't bother with the cardio workout. They are good if you are having a hard time getting motivated one day, or you don't want to leave the house for the gym, or don't want to think much about your workout. Definitely would not rely on this for your only source of exercise, but can be fun and useful in the right situation.

The workout in these videos is similar to the one in the first video of the original workout but instead of being beginner, these ones are intermediate.
Each video has a workout of about 45 min (including warm up and cool down which take 15 min approx.).
The cardio consists in never stopping and doing fast repetitions, while the flex video consists in holding the poses for one set which is more of a workout than I thought at first. I like both videos, but if you want to buy only one I prefer the cardio. Personally I like to be able to switch between routines and don't do the same one every day even though they're very similar.
I bought these because my original videos are VHS and I wanted a DVD and the original workout is way to expensive. If you liked those videos I'm sure you'll like these too.

These 2 workouts are pretty good, but they are more for the intermediate Tae Boer. They are not as advanced as some of the other DVDs.
