 Pretty Good Workout, Not For Everyone December 10, 2002
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Although I am fit, work out with weights, and regularly do an hour or more of aerobics at a stretch, I had some problems with some of the movements in these videos. If you haven't done kickboxing or anything like this before, (I haven't), it's very difficult to keep up with certain exercises without compromising your form. I got knee and back pain from trying to keep up each time I did this video, and I finally put it on the shelf and went back to other exercise videos that don't leave me with injuries. If you don't have any physical issues, however, you may enjoy this workout.
 I LOVE BILLY!... September 26, 2002

I adore these workouts!! I just started and within 2 weeks saw and felt a HUGE difference. I had a baby a year ago and had a little trouble getting off this extra 10, but now.....wooooo hoooooo. Everything is feeling tighter and sexier. GET THESE TAPES LADIES AND GENTS!... Yeah the music and props are lame but WHO CARES!.. Turn down the TV, turn on your own music, and count for yourselves!... Just do it! I didnt buy the DVDs for the special effects and filming, I bought them to get FIT!...
Thank you Billy!... Your the man :)
Short, but sweet September 17, 2002

This workout has saved me so many times. It is my fall back when I am feeling tired and don't want to excercise at all. I can always talk myself into doing the Basic video because it is short and sweet. Even though the cardio portion of the video is only 20 or 25 minutes, you can still work up a sweat and feel as though you've done a good workout.

I bought the instructional and Basic videos. The instructional was good and I did learn a few moves but the basic was or I should say doesn't look anything like suppose to. There are some moves that were never in the instructional and why did Billy Blanks say that he hoped I had aready gone through the basic video when I was waiting for the basic workout. The video my say basic but could actually be advanced? Anybody out there know for sure if the basic video is what says it is?
Where's the beat? April 29, 2002

I like Billy Blanks, the concept of a kick boxing workout, and also all the various levels of age and fitness of the people in his "class." But I did not like these videos (I have all four) because the moves do NOT fit the music and the music is terrible! He counts off his moves at arbitrary times that have nothing to do with the beat or the phrasing, which is distracting and annoying if you have any rhythmic understanding. If you don't care about music, then the moves do provide a tough workout, but if you're like me, you definitely need a rockin' beat to help push through.Also, an additional caveat -- I had to stop using these videos because I kicked my two year old daughters (twins)! These are not great if you have small children.
