Have been wanting to try billy blanks workout dvd's for a long time so decided to look on amazon and got it for 3.95. I thought since so cheap might aswell give it a go.

Tae bo blends your own hidden strength with moves from self-defence, dance and boxing.

This dvd contains two parts, instructional and tae bo basics.

The best way is do the instructional part first for a few times to get use to the moves which are quite hard to master. Billy is a good instructor and you warm to his personality very quickly, he shows you the best way to stand, how to position your arms to punch and legs to kick correctly so you do not hurt yourself.

The main part of the dvd is only about 20 minutes long but my god you sweat it combines what you have learnt from the instructional part of this dvd with fast moves. I find trying to copy Billy is quite hard as he will tell you to punch to the left but when you are looking at the tv it looks like he punching from the right which is confusing. I have quite a few workout dvd's but find this one i uses muscles that i never knew i had. I like the people in the dvd that he is working with not all skinny and fit there are normal people in the dvd which is good especially if you have not worked out before as you realise that there are other people like you.

Overall a good workout if you like to push yourself to the limit.

I have ordered some more of his dvd's as i find tae bo hard but very addictive.
