1.0 out of 5 stars This tape was a waste of time and money!, October 18, 1999

This review is from: Crunch - Master Blaster with Bonus Workout: Fat Blaster Plus [VHS] (VHS Tape)

After doing TAEBO basics for about 2 months, I was really looking forward to this tape, wow, what a let-down. Billy Blanks did do a good job with the toning section of the video, my muscles felt like they really got a good workout. The aerobics portion was really bad. Tracy Yorks went too quickly, with little explanation of what was going on, and the camera angles were terrible. The video was more like learning difficult dance steps than working out.

2.0 out of 5 stars I'm disappointed Billy!, February 15, 2000

This tape was a real disappointment to me. As a huge Billy Blanks fan I was expecting more. The filming was very poor and the tape was slow moving and boring. I only made it through it twice. The workout was okay but nothing spectacular. The aerobic segment was impossible for me to follow.

DESPITE READING THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS, I BOUGHT IT ANYWAY. THE WEIGHT PART WAS OK, BUT I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE AEROBICS PART OF THE TAPE. DANCE STEPS TOO HARD TO FOLLOW, CAMERA ANGLES BAD. BORING...TO MUCH YELLING IN BACKGROUND.
