3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, March 30, 2005

By	Diana F. Von Behren "reneofc" (Kenner, LA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

Let me preface this review by saying that I am a big fan of Tae Bo and its creator Billy Blanks and have been a big fan since the series first came out over 10 years ago. I have all 12 of the advanced series workouts that I have played to the point that when I hear certain music in a non-exercise situation, my body goes on automatic pilot, responding to the music by wanting to perform some associated Tae-bo move. Needless to say, I was thrilled to refresh my workout with a brand new series of DVDs which I saw being hawked on one of the home shopping networks.
I was disappointed. Instead of providing a more progressive workout which built on the work I had already done with the original 12 series, the Get Ripped series and Taebo Total, this workout takes you back to a beginner's level. The package I purchased includes two hand-held weighted balls -- a good idea as they do help to tighten up the muscles when performing most of the upperbody routines. However, the overall workout leaves much to be desired. The music is slow and monotonous, and the workout simply doesn't last long enough. Billy commendably spends much time warming up and cooling off, but little time actually working out. Sadly, I performed this tape one time only, tried out the accompanying DVDS which focus on the Tae Bo attributes of Foundation, Strength, and Energy and reluctantly went back to doing Tae Bo Total.
My review of the Power video stands for the entire series -- if you are someone who has used the Tae Bo videos in the past and were enjoying the advanced level tapes, don't expect this series to contunue your Tae Bo development. If you have already purchased this like myself, use the balls with your other workouts -- they aid tremendously in tightening the muscles to get the most out of your punches and Billy's isometric work. I awarded the series three stars only because it would make an okay beginner's workout.
I have seen Billy's Boot Camp workout advertisized on television and from what I have seen, this series may provide the advanced workout that I came to enjoy with the other Tae Bo tapes. Keeping my fingers crossed.
