I love BIlly Blanks, his fitness program has helped me lose over 120 pounds and keep it off for over 2 years. I do Tae Bo at least 3 times a week and was very excited about these new workouts. I LOVE the new Billy Bands - the new bands with the weights really rev up my workout and are changing up familiar workouts.
The getting started mission is perfect for the beginner, and the maximum power workout is a lot of fun. I wish it was a little more strenuous, and I really wish there was more ab work as in the original boot camp series. The orginal BC workouts leave you knowing you worked every part of your body in one hour.
I recommend these for the bands and the fun cardio!
I love Billy Blanks, but this review has more to do with the "buying episode" than the item itself. White Elephant Media advertised this product as a DVD. I knew that this product was just coming on to the market and was being sold as a set of three DVD's and the bands for $39.99 retail. When I saw it advertised for $26.00, I figured it was the set, but I wasn't 100% sure. I bid on it, but then I immediately contacted the seller to find out for sure if that was just a very expensive price for just the one or if it was indeed the set which made more sense. Unfortunately, I won the auction and still had not heard back from the seller. When I tried to explain my situation, I was told that there was nothing they could do. Although they did not clearly explain their item on their site and they took forever to get back to me, none of that was taken into consideration and I was issued the strike, so in reviewing the item - I love billy blanks - the seller, White Elephan Media - leaves much to be desired.
these dvd's are great it will get you off the couch and burn the fat without driving to the gym just pop them in and get ready for that summer body. and this is way cheaper than a gym membership.
This exercise program works the whole body in a standing position. It's hard to work abs from the floor and on the exercise ball. It doesn't take very long and it's fun and upbeat.
I am very pleased with the product. The follow up with emails to provide a staus for me was also appreciateve.
The DVD's are very much to the point and doesn't waste your time on talking and trying to look cute. The workouts are definately geared towards results. Great product.
awesome workout. If you liked Billy before....here you go again. Keeps you going. Purchased the workout because I had many of Billy's VHS's years ago. Had a child recently so decided that I would like to get into he's many other workouts to get back into shape.
These workout videos are great! These were purchased by my fiance in hopes to get a good workout and they have definitely done their job. I would recommend these to people in a heartbeat. The shipping was a little slower than we were hoping for but all in all, we recieved them and fully enjoy them!
These will get you into to shape or in better shape than you all ready are. Even though I am in really good shape these still were hard for me in the beginning and they still give me a really good cardio and muscle workout and I usually feel it the next day.
I got this for my niece for her birthday and she uses it constantly. She loves these. She states that these help her more then nything else. It gives her energy and all around feeling better. We heard Billy Blanks was from Erie and it is close to us. We love the home town thing. I feel I spent my money wisely on these tapes. Thank you for the opportunity.
I am a typical yo~yo dieter and it's always hard for me to be motivated enough to excersise. This set is simple to follow and I had instant results that were so gratifying that I wanted to see more. I couldn't wait to work out...and if I didn't I missed it. It's nice to know that excersising can actually be fun...and show instant results thanks to the resistance bands. Billy Blanks is a true hero.
the bootcamp tapes are awesome. however, the red bands are difficult to use. I had a hard time readjusting them. and sometimes throughout the tape, they are hard to keep steady because the wrist area of the bands is so large.
It was the product I expected and it arrived in a timely manner, so what more can you ask for? Thank you very much for being the professional that you are!
I purchased the dvd for a friend in germany. I haven't heard from her since i sent it, i think she will like it as it was in new condition and was exactly what she wanted.
I ordered DVD-Box on 12/01 and received the parcel on 12/11. I live in California, so 10 days is reasonable to take. That is the 1st time for me to use eBay. I asked the seller and she kindly replied me soon. The packing was in good condition. I found no problem of them. Thank you very much!
I have done Tae Bo for years but quit for a few and gave away my workouts to my daughter. I got motivated again and went looking for this because another daughter got it and loved it. I like Billy's way of instructing and I get results from everything he does. The bands are a great idea. I can't use them they bruised me so I use weights instead. I am very happy with the dvds.
Billy Blanks is an excellent trainer. Although the exercises are on DVDs, they seem so real like I am actually working out with him. HE pushes me to wrok harder. I am absolutely crazy about his workouts. I try to do them every day. In addition, his bootcamp exercises are excellent stress relievers which is a bonus since I am a college student and get frustrated often. The best exercies I have ever done and I sweat like never before.
I have viewed the Billy Blanks work out CD's and I am happy with the product. Billy Blanks is easy to follow in the routines. I am happy to have the one pound weights and the stretch bands that add to the work out. Some times it is difficult to hear just what Bill Blanks is saying. I do not like having to fast forward through the first part of each CD due to the advertisements. I would much prefer to go directly to the work out routine. I would not recomend this Bootcamp work out for a beginner. I would suggest a low impact routine to start with and work up to the Billy Blanks Bootcamp Elite work out. Thank you for the fast delivery of the CD's.
Once again, BIlly Blanks and his take it to the ultimate! The mission 1 is a nice intermediate level workout if you use the bands correctly. I have heard some say it is too easy but when I workout with them, they do not have the correct tension on the bands or just flat out do not use them. Mission 2 starts off at cardio level and keeps it going! The abs routine (mission 3) looks deceptively easy until you do everything he says-then it gets HARD! I love this set!
