    Tae-Bo Workout; Instructional and Basic description


    Description
    Product Description:
      Energizing. Explosive. Powerful. Uplifting. That?s how superstar athletes, Hollywood celebrities and thousands of people just like you from around the world describe Tae-Bo, the hottest workout in America. Personally developed by 7 time World Martial Arts champion Billy Blanks, Tae-Bo blends your own hidden strength with the ancient arts of self-defense, dance, and boxing combined with today?s great music. Tae-Bo is unlike any workout program you?ve ever tried before! See consistent, amazing results from your very first workout as Tae-Bo takes you to your next level of physical fitness.

    From Amazon.com:
      Billed as the "future of fitness" and hawked by numerous celebrities, Billy Blanks's Tae-Bo actually deserves much of the hype it's receiving. A mixture of boxing punches and martial arts kicks, Tae-Bo is fun and easy. One of the best elements of this two-tape set is that the first tape (which is 40 minutes long), Tae-Bo: Instructional, lays out the movements you need to successfully complete a workout. Once you've mastered the steps, you won't have to fast-forward through half the tape to get to the workout, nor will your workout be slowed down by the repeated lessons. After you feel comfortable with the movements (and they're really quite easy to follow; nothing too complicated to trip you up), you're ready to move on to Tae-Bo: Basics, a 27-minute workout (5 minutes of warm-up, 18 minutes of Tae-Bo, and 4 minutes of cool-down) that will have your heart pounding and your body sweating. The only downside to this tape is the less-than-exciting music. Blanks, a seven-time World Martial Arts champion, is a superb instructor, providing encouragement and careful instruction (if you don't know by the end of the tape to hold in your stomach, that's no one's fault but your own). Not only is Tae-Bo great exercise for all levels, but the punches and kicks are wonderful for working out stress and aggression. This is the aerobics exercise video for people who are bored by aerobics. --Jenny Brown

    Tae-Bo Workout; Instructional and Basic Review
    I purchased the Tae-Bo workout Instructional and Basic VHS tapes and only received one tape in the mail.
    Good Workout...Bad Visuals - 4 stars
    Tae-Bo Workout; Instructional and Basic Review
    I bought this tape in an effort to build body strength and lose some pounds. It was a penny before shipping so I didn't think twice whether to buy it or not. I think that it is a great workout for beginners like myself. I do think that Billy Blanks probably should have done this video by himself. The camera focused too much on the other people in the tape and not enough on him, so it is hard to see where he places his foot and how he twists his knees during jabs. I hated that the camera was on one of the girls in particular that kept screaming, oh yeah. After a couple of times, it drove me crazy. All in all it was a good tape, even though I have to keep the volume turned down and look away from the tape. oh yea!
    My Favorite Cardio Workout Ever! - 5 stars
    Tae-Bo Workout; Instructional and Basic Review
    I absolutely love this workout! It is so much fun and you see results within the first week!!! 3 years ago, I did this work out 3 days a week, with some Pilates in between (Ellen Barrett Pick Your Spot Pilates)and was on weight Watchers and lost 25 pounds in just 3 months and felt better than ever! I was in better shape and more toned than I even had been in school. I recommend this to people all the time. It is the best!
    Excellent Easy To Follow Instruction and The Basic Program Is A Great Workout! - 5 stars
    Tae-Bo Workout; Instructional and Basic Review
    I've been doing Yoga, Pilates and Weight Training for years. Tae Bo NEVER interested me at all!

    My wife came home with a bunch of old Tae Bo's that she got at a garage sale. I thought that I'd never have any use for them.

    Well, currently I've been preparing to do Tony Horton's DVD Bootcamp P90X. While I've been waiting for my shipment to come I've been preparing myself for it by doing different disciplines.

    Knowing that Kenpo is one of the types of programs on P90X I figured that maybe Tae Bo would at least give me a ballpark idea of what a martial arts based workout might be like so I pulled out those Tae Bo Tapes.

    Last Friday I did the "Instructional" program and found it really well done. Billy Blanks does a great job of explaining not only the moves but where you should be feeling them throughout your body. There is a definite overall emphasis on safely doing them as not to hurt the joints. Also, I had a really great time doing it which really surprised me!

    Today (a week later) I did the "Basic" program and definitely found the "Instructional", even just one time doing it, prepared me for this actual workout (the instructional isn't a workout but is a great place to start if like me, you've never done anything like this).

    The "Basic" program was a lot more intense that I thought it would be, I worked up quite a sweat and felt great after.

    The only things I'd say to maybe be cautious of is that in the beginning warmups he does some neck movements a bit rapidly so for someone like myself with neck issues I would still do the warmups but move at a slower pace so you don't get hurt.

    The other thing I wanted to mention is that in the "Instructional" program, it's not designed as a workout so not everything done on one side is done on the other. I started doing them on both side on my own so I'd at least get the feel for those.

    All in all, I was very impressed with Billy Blanks as a teacher and for how much of a real workout this was.

    WOW!! - 5 stars
    Tae-Bo Workout; Instructional and Basic Review
    What an amazing video! I received it today. I just popped it in. This video is not only easy to do, but you can really feel it working. I purchased this video for $1.55 and what a BUY!! I would recommend it to anyone. I am 50 pounds overweight and I can do it. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for something different. Great great video!
