I just discovered Tae Bo and LOVE IT!!! I know it's been out there for years, but I finally decided to try it. Along with Zumba, BodyPump, biking and training for a 5K it will become another part of my weight loss journey. Bought my tape at Goodwill, so guess where I'll be going to get my next tape?? LOL

    Most excellent! I lost my tape years ago, but I work as many of the moves into my work out as I can. I love it too! It never occured to me to check out the thrift store for a replacement, I still have the VCR kicking around...might as well use it!

    I'm a huge fan of Tae Bo. I own almost all of Billy's workouts. I don't own some of his VHS workouts, but as I see them at the Goodwill or Salvation Army or even garage sales, I will buy them. His PT 24/7 program is good too. He has a new Dojo series out. I can't wait to own the last remaining four of them. Tae Bo Express came out recently.

    I got to workout with Billy Blanks when I was deployed in Afghanistan. He did a tour to a bunch of bases in Afghanistan. It was sooooo amazingly awesome!!!

    I love the Tae Bo workouts. I have several DVD's and do them about 4 days a week. Always a good workout!

    I just bought Tae Bo Express and it is amazing! I thought it was just one of those infomercial traps but it is great! The express workout keeps you moving constantly and provides a variety of workouts. I don't know if it's cause I'm out of shape or what but I can barely keep up with them. Definitely going to keep working on it and get more videos!

    My entire last year of workout was Tae Bo based...picked up a couple of DVDs at garage sales, and have gradually built my collection to include over 12 of his DVDs now. I love it...in fact, it's what encouraged me to take up Kung Fu as my now standard workout routine!

    Tae Bo has not gone out of style.

    VHS weighs so much more than DVDs so I had to ditch them to enjoy tae bo on the go. Poor Billy must have cried when I got rid of those VHSs.

    YES! I AM! I love love love Tae Bo because it helps me get a really good burn and it keeps me interested, it's not a boring workout by any means and before I know it I'm cooling down... I have completed 1 round of Turbo Fire (which I love) and Tae Bo Burns about the same amount of cals..it's so helpful in helping me switch up my workouts...LOVE IT!
