Okay, I just bought a few DVDs of Billy Blanks Boot camp/Tae Bo and was wondering if anyone else has done this and had success? If so how much have you lost? :o Are you still using it? Have you just started?

Am I just wasting my time? :huh:

I would love to hear from you! :bigsmile:

Thanks for your time,

Taylor :heart:

    Anything that gets you moving can be a success. You just have to keep doing it and eat within your calories. :)

    Love tae bo and Billy's boot camp. Doing the boot camp one this afternoon in fact. Really gets you sweating and moving and you can definitely feel the effects of it and all the good it's doing your body after the first session. I've been doing those workouts coupled with some 30DS, walking, belly dancing etc and have lost 29lbs so far.

    I love Billy Blank's workouts. I've lost 11 pounds so far from his Bootcamp/Tae Bo DVDs. I just ordered three more DVDs this week.

    I just bought a few of Billy Blank's DVDs, but I'm not getting them to show up when I input them in the cardio section of the exercises to see how many calories I burn doing them. Does anyone know how or where I can go to get an accurate calorie count? Thanks.

    He had this one video (cassette!) that was the hardest workout I've ever done EVER! I never finished it without running in place for a little while (couldn't keep up lol)...yeah. Second to that would be the six and a half hour run I did and puked after... and yeah, for some reason Billy Blank's workout was memorably harder.

    I have no idea how many cals you would burn - it would depend on the workout... just put 1000/20mins :p (j/k)

    I know exactly what you mean! I had this 8min workout cassette and by the 3rd min I was done for! But he is great! Here is an idea to switch it up! (I'll be doing his workout tonight)

    Tae Bo is my number one workout. I own almost all of Billy's workouts, except for one of his VHS sets. If the price is right for anyone, I think you should get his PT 24/7 program. It's cheaper in the stores. I can't wait until his new workout comes out in March. It's called Tae Bo Express. It's 96 minutes long. It's broken down into (8) 10 minute workouts. You can preview the workout on Collagevideo.com.

    I suggest Billy fans get Billy Power Round workouts. He has four of them. 8 minute, 12 minute, 20 minute and 30 minute. I own the 20 minute and 30 minute workouts. Billy has packed a punch in these workouts. You can find them on Amazon.com.

    I also have the dvd's but only 3 of them.
    Is it correct to have only 3 dvd's or have to be 4?

    What happens with the training schedule after week 4?
    Starting again with week 1 or keep doing week 4 each week?

    Thanks very much,
