Biggest Loser Boot camp DVD

I did a search on our message boards regarding this DVD. Things were said like "I love working out with Bob", or "It's a great Workout", or "I'm hurting so it must be working" in reference to this DVD but what I was wondering is what is it like? When I say that I mean ... is it to music? ... Does it have a good beat to it? ... Is it fun? I know that shouldn't really be my focus but if it ain't fun then I ain't gonna do it. I have one of Jillian's DVDs and it is indeed a good workout but I really like Bob better on the show. Any feedback would be great.

Since its a biggest lose dvd the music is more like what you would find on the show, not really upbeat workout music, but the workout has a lot of variety so it makes the time fly by when you're doing it. I really enjoy the dvd I do it 2 or 3 days a week when I don't go outside to walk/jog. And of couse Bob is great too LOL

I haven't made it to level 3 yet, but it is a good workout so far! Lots of lunges and some weights. It's clear that it is tough even to some of the participants, but a few of them are always doing lower-impact modifications so you can see what an "easier" version of each exercise is like. As Laurajoyw said, the music isn't anything special, but I think once you have done it a few times and have a pretty good idea of the moves, it would be fine to turn the volume down and crank your own tunes!
