IT DOES WHAT IT SAYS!

I have been doing TaeBo since the very first video came out around 1998 and I love it! I can honestly tell anyone that if I do TaeBo consistently, 4 days a week for 3 weeks, I see results! I lose inches from my waist, I burn fat and gain muscle and look very toned. I haven't encountered a workout yet that yields the same results as fast as TaeBo. I stop sometimes and go back to it because I know it works. I have just lost 35lbs after having a baby and needed to tightened it all back up, so I have been doing this Fat Burn Accelerator 4 times a week for the past 2 weeks and I'm already seeing and FEELING the difference. If you haven't experienced TaeBo before, you will find it difficult because of its intensity, speed and moves but its just like making love for the first time, it's uncomfortable and awkward at first, you get sweaty and there is lots of heavy breathing! But you have to practice and be consistent and you become a pro at it! If you are a beginner, start off with the basic workout and work your way up. For me, I love fast and intense cardio. I feel like I've done something when I am dripping with sweat. This DVD goes by pretty fast to me. You've done 30 minutes before you know it. This DVD does exactly what it says, it will burn the fat."
Good For Beginners...

"First, I must say I bought this at Target for only $7. Because ten years ago I had the original Tae Bo vhs tapes and I loved them. For months I have been doing all of Jillian Michael's workouts and I love them and I have gotten results, but I'm getting bored. So I picked this up for something different to do along with hers, and since I have done Tae Bo in the past. Well I don't know if I am just in better shape since doing Jillian's dvds, or if this workout is just rather slow. Either way, I wasn't impressed. I know for a fact my heartrate was NOT up as it should be. It was an okay workout, but I know that it wasn't enough for me. This dvd would probably be alright for beginners and people new to exercise. And I'm sure it would be great for those with serious knee problems who can't do a lot of jumping.
Sorry, but this did not impress me at all. I had to add Jillian's ten minute workout from the Biggest Loser Cardio Max to it, and even that ten minutes is harder than this hour long dvd. I still think Tae Bo is great, and I think Billy Blanks can be very inspirational, but this particular workout wasn't cutting it for me. Just glad I only spent $7 on it!
PS: Don't bother buying that bar thingy. You don't need it. Or you could just use something around the house like a baseball bat or something else."
