 Advanced is an Awesome workout! April 9, 2003
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This workout is awesome! After the cardio part, which is about 30 minutes, I had an average heart rate of 181!! After the floor exercises (about 25 minutes) my heart rate had an average of 161!! Anyway, this makes me sweat even more than I do when I run and seems to hit all areas of my body--instead of the same areas when I run. Anyway, you won't be disappointed!
A challenging video February 2, 2003
Anne (Tacoma, WA)
I've checked out this video numerous times at my local library...and I absolutely love it! It is quite hard, but I like that about the workout because you know that you will see results! This video and a few of the other Advanced Tae Bo videos have really changed my body. All the fat on my hips dissapeared! I am a lot leaner and more muscular. That is why I love this video...you WILL see results if you do only two or three days a week! And it really makes you sweat! It's the best work out I have ever gotten from a home video. I feel such a great feeling of accomplishment when I'm done with it! My favorite part of the video is the floor work for the thighs, buns, and abs! Billy Blanks ain't lying when he says, "You're buns will be on fire!!!!" He really pushes you through out the whole video and his motivation really seems to help me. I love the ab and bun work! The girls in the front of also great motivation because they have such nice toned bodies! Anyhow, this video, in my opinion, would be great for anyone who has done the basic Tae Bo before and who is ready for the next step. This video is really hard but it makes ya feel so great after doing it! So if you want a good, hard workout then this may be for you!
 BRINGING IT! January 15, 2003

This is an amazing, mind-changing video. I spent awhile opposed to "classic" forms of exercise, and then this came along. It appeals to the deepest parts of you, that want to SCREAM! and throw yourself at the mercy of your own adrenalin. It really, honestly doesn't feel like exercise. Although it did take me forever to finally make it through the whole tape without stopping to catch my breath and recover from muscle failure!I would recommend completing the instructional and basic tapes first, to get the idea of what kinds of moves Billy Blanks will be using. He uses almost all the same moves from these two tapes, but at a much quicker pace and in longer reps. If you are a martial arts student, you may either enjoy this and the other Tae Bo tapes immensely, or you may totally dislike it! I myself am a martial arts student, and while the technique he displays is not the one I am taught to use, I just remind myself that this video is for exercise, not instruction in self-defense. I even tweak it somewhat to retain my own muscle memory, when possible. I appreciate the use of so many different kinds of people in the background...men, women, tall and skinny, short and muscular. But each person's physique is inspiring--you just say to yourself, "I want that!" And away you go! I highly recommend this tape for advanced exercisers, or beginners who are willing to take it a step at a time until they can finish the whole tape. It will really make you scream out loud, and you'll feel GREAT for it!
Oh my aching butt!!! June 6, 2002

Nowadays, I have been missing my gym appointments. Good thing I have the Taebo tape at home to perk me up. Nothing beats a sweat-pouring muscle-crunching workout after a tiresome day at work. & what's so great about this is that you get your cardio workout like in aerobics but at the same time you get to tone your muscles through all those punches & kicks. I may sound like a paid-out person giving a testimony on a TV/mail-order product, but I instantly felt & saw results in my physique. My thighs/legs became leaner & firmer and I lost a few centimeters on my waistline. Great work out! Common, squeeze those abs!
Advanced is an understatement! May 3, 2002

This Advanced workout is a far cry from the Basic taebo workout. You will definitely feel this one and sweat like crazy once your halfway through. The first 35 minutes are Billy's way of introducing you to what his advanced workouts are like (I also have the Live workouts and the Get Ripped Advanced)--much more fast-paced than basic, and SERIOUS. The last 25 minutes are floor exercises for your butt and abs. The butt exercises are killer, and you will definitely feel it the next day. This workout is what got me hooked on taebo. Every single muscle in your body is worked and you feel great afterwards (it's getting there that's tough); you'll feel proud of yourself every time you finish. Once you master the Advanced, move on to the Get Ripped Advanced--they're 60 minutes and fast, fast, fast..I have yet to find any other workouts that are as effective as these...
