5.0 out of 5 stars Sweat, Sweat, Sweat!, May 25, 2005

This review is from: Billy Blanks: Tae Bo Boot Camp Box Set (DVD)

This is a great workout series! I highly recommend it if you want to feel the fat fall off your body. It can be done with and without the "Billy Bands." I just wanted to comment that you can find the Boot Camp series on the QVC website instead of the Billy Blanks websites. It is a much better deal too! You get the original four DVD's - basic training, ultimate, cardio-live, ab and then they throw in the lower body work out. It comes with the bands and the 4 week program! Also, if that weren't enough they offer it for a cheaper price and their shipping is a TON cheaper! Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Greatest Home Fitness System Ever Created, May 26, 2005

By 

Rob V - See all my reviews

This review is from: Billy Blanks: Tae Bo Boot Camp Box Set (DVD)

First off, don't listen to Al Ray. The girl in the video he is talking about is a legendary US female martial artist Shellie Blanks, Billy's daughter. She is an instructor on both BootCamp and TaeBo. Basically, everywhere Billy is, she is. Anyway, Shellie does not scream and shout like Al Ray describes. Billy in the tapes instructs to scream it out to keep pushing yourself in the first place. As for the product it is the greatest home fitness system on the planet, bar none. This is the best way to strength train and lose body fat at the same time. A lot of problems people run into is that if they want to build muscle, they lift, but don't do much cardio because they get so sore. People who do more cardio don't want to lift because they get too sore and don't do their cardio. This is the best middle ground I have ever embraced. These workouts are action packed and garunteed to get you results. In weeks you will see the fat start to melt away and muscle beginning to develop. The workouts don't drain the life out of you like running or lifting might. Everytime I finish a workout, I feel energized. These workouts are tough and require mental fortitude in order to get through each of them strong. Billy and his team are very encouraging and have created a great supportive community for all of those who decide to engage in BootCamp or TaeBo. Both will get you results, but I reccommend BootCamp because it has finally given me the stomach I have always wanted by crunching out the fat that was there and building solid defined muscle. Basic science is that the more muscle you have, the more fat/calories you burn. Billy has been an instructor for over 20 years and only wants an opportunity to change your life. Give Billy that opportunity.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Workout on the market for TaeBo Veterans, April 7, 2005

By 

Taebo Veteran (Canyon, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Billy Blanks: Tae Bo Boot Camp Box Set (DVD)

I purchased the videos on the billy blanks website. They are not for beginners, but it is possible to start out with them if the "Billy Bands" aren't used. These are the videos I was waiting for when I purchased the Taebo Power series last year. In other words, I was hoping that The Taebo Power videos would be challenging, but they were not. The Taebo Boot camp videos build strength, cardio vascular, toning of the arms and legs as well as a great ab workout. If you can use the "Billy Bands", more power to you. I chose to use the Power Balls that came with the Taebo Power series. They work the same way without being too stressful on the joints in the shoulders.

The Infomercial I saw regarding this product says that you will see results in 7 days. This is true if you stick to a sensible diet and work out on a regular basis. Billy's motivations in the videos are short and to the point. "Fight for your Life". What else does the man have to say.
