Bump

I have both turbo jam and slim in 6. I never actually followed the whole program as it is set up but have done all of the workouts along with my other routines in the past. Out of those two, I prefer TurboJam. It's just a lot of fun, very dancy and I just love the instructor's personality. It fuses kickboxing, dance and martial arts so if you like that kind of stuff then you would enjoy it. The instructor also has two people in the videos who do modified versions of the moves that are lower impact, especially for people who have knee problems. Slim in 6 was a little too slow for me so I got bored with it. Turbo Jam comes with 6 workouts including an instructional video, a 20 minute workout for when you don't have time and a video for strength training where you use dumbells. The routines are not hard at all and I think it's perfect for a beginner. The longest video is 50 minutes but some are 30, 40, 45 and again there is a 20 minute video.

Which program you choose really depends on your goals. Turbojam is more for cardio and P90 is more for strength training and building muscles.

You said you are a beginner so if you are new to working out I think you can't go wrong with something like slim in 6 or turbojam or even some of the Jillian Michael's programs and of course proper diet. I wouldn't jump into anything extreme like P90X or Insanity. I think you can incorporate those later as you build your endurance and strength.

Good luck to you!

Hi there! I would be excited to help you!

How would you consider your current fitness level? Have you been working out already and are just looking to step it up a bit? If this is true, you cannot go wrong with any of the three you listed. I personally do not have experience with any of these programs; however, my parents use Slim in 6 and LOVE IT!

With Turbo Jam, the workouts are 20-45 minutes long and incorporates kickboxing in the routines.

Slim in 6 workouts are from 25 to 50 minutes long and incorporates light resistance training along with cardio.

Power 90 workouts are from 35 to 45 minutes long and is considered a 90-day boot camp that includes circuit-training.

As far as cost goes (if this is a consideration), they are all priced the same at $59.85. You may want to look at the equipment that is recommended and what each program includes in the way of equipment. In any case, you will get a comprehensive package that includes the fitness video as well as a nutritional plan to help you reach your goals.

I hope this helps! I am an Independent Beachbody Coach, so if there is any other questions you may have, let me know! I'd love to help you with your goals, so send me a Buddy Request if you are already on TeamBeachbody.com

I have done P90. I loved it. I find Tony Horton fun.
I am doing the P90 masters series right now, because I didn't feel prepared for the P90X - Yet.

I didn't do the program as set out, but I do the workouts on schedule. I am sold on the program. I have the series lined up in my mind to complete

I need to lose quite a bit of weight. I will say when I started P90 my fitness level was low. Desk job poor eating and such took its toll on me.

I can say, despite the amount of weight I am looking to lose I feel much more in shape I have in many years. I defintely worked my way up to it. I feel fantastic. I look forward to working out. I am more flexible than I have ever been (even when I was my ideal weight).

I can't speak for all of the BB products, but I know that Tony Horton gives a ton of modifications, encouragement to pause and take breaks if needed, and gerneral laughter in most of the videos that has made it easy to work up to the level you want to be. P90 has actually moved from "ugh I have to exercise" to being excited to do it

I purchased the Slim 6 and wished I purchased the Turbo Jam. Slim 6 to me is like . . . "1 & 2 & 3" where Turbo Jam is like . . . ."Wooo shake it 1, do you feel it 2, now lets kick it to 3".

I am on day 50 of power 90. I like it but have gotten completely sick of the cardio dvd. I am doing a hybrid with it and turbo jam, sort of. I do the weight workout from p90 3x a week and do whatever I feel like for cardio 3-4 x a week. Today I went on an hour and half long hike. Some cardio days I do zumba or a random workout from ondemand.

All of these programs will work for you but if you get bored don't be afraid to change it up.
