Hello. I'm thinking of buying piyo and just wondered what other people thought about it and what results they've had. My exercise history is Turbo Fire, Cize and tried Insanity, T25 and Insanity Max 30. Also is piyo enough or would I still need to do turbo fire/cize for cardio.

Thank you :).

    PiYo is a low impact non-HIIT pilates-yoga hybrid that can help build strength and flexibility but it is NOT a cardio based program.

    So, if it's a cardio workout you want, look elsewhere, but I could see it used as an adjunct to a HIIT program for a change of pace.

    If you are interested in trying it, you can buy the complete 5 DVD program for less than $30 on eBay, which is about 50% off the televised price. That's how I got mine.

    Thank you. I'm doing cize at the moment so if piyo isn't enough cardio I can do both. Did piyo help you to tone your muscles and what were your results like? Live in the UK so not many options for buying on eBay unfortunately. Thank you :).

    Just bought the program and haven't used it much yet. Am already toned. Just plan to use it to add some flexibility training to my routine.
