Billy Blanks: Tae Bo Cardio Explosion



Great Tae Bo Video
Normally I don't review a lot of my purchases, but I wanted to for this DVD. I have lots of Tae Bo DVDS and sets, AMPED, PT 24/7, etc... I think Tae Bo is a lot of fun and it makes me want to workout. This video is probably the most balanced of all the Tae Bo videos, generally I find a lot more upper body/core vs. lower body. There is the perfect balance of upper body/lower body exercises focusing on the core. One of the biggest complaints I see people have with these videos are Billy's cueing/counting. I think the cueing was really good, as well as the counting of sets. During the PT 24/7 videos especially, Billy will say last set and then you notice 4 more sets have gone by. When he says 2 or 3 more sets in this video he is right on. There are great combo moves and transitions in this one. I enjoy all my Tae Bo videos, but this one stands out for a total body workout.

Sweating!
I am not quite sure why this is pre-order December 6th when i stumbled upon it at my local target today. But anyway, in the beginning, in the middle, and at the end of the work out i was breathing heavy and sweating, and i do workout 4-6 days a week. When using his combination techniques of punching and kicking you work your triceps, biceps, abs, inner, and outer thighs. You start doing the rep at normal pace then you go into "explosion mode" where you kick up the energy and really get your heart rate up. In the land of Jillian, Bob Harper, and P90X this will defiantly go into my workout regimen for sure. Though, not needed because this workout is powerful on its own, i will be adding 1-2 pound weighted gloves just for the extra push. Love this workout!

Great cardio workout!!
This is one of Billy's newest workouts. It's one of my new favorite workout DVDs. It's a great and intens Tae Bo cardio workout. You realy feel the burn! I think it's not for beginners. You will sweat a lot. Do this workout three times a week and you are in great cardio shape.
I give five stars for this wonderfull workout.
Good job Mr. Blanks.
