Billy Blanks is back to introduce the evolution of his ultimate total body workout. As Seen On TV, TaeBo Live is the exciting follow-up to his original platinum award-winning TaeBo videos. This all-new set of workouts features 4 energizing, explosive, powerful and uplifting tapes. Includes instructional tape, basic workout tape, advanced workout tape and 8-minute workout tape. Made in USA.

This four-pack of videos is enough Tae-Bo to keep your moves exploding without getting bored or plateauing. The first 60-minute video, Instructional, is a prerequisite for the others; it demonstrates how to do the fundamental movements, one by one. Beginning with a flexibility routine, instructor Billy Blanks demonstrates plenty of modifications for less flexible exercisers. Next he teaches punches and kicks that you’ll be using in the workouts, with plenty of attention to technique and injury prevention, including effective demonstrations of the wrong way to do each move. He is patient and thorough. It is surprising, however, that with all the videos he’s sold, he doesn’t realize that he’s miscuing the directions constantly–his left and right directions match the people behind him, not the viewer facing him.

The 34-minute Basic video is next, but with Blanks, basic doesn’t mean easy. The moves are tough, physically and mentally, put together in a fast-paced routine that will keep you sweating. A large class does the workout in the background.

Next is the Advanced workout. Don’t even think of doing this until you can do the Basic in your sleep. After the Tae-Bo workout, Blank sends you to the floor for endless sets of a killer ab and hips routine. You’ll feel every minute of this video’s 60-minute running time.

The final workout is an 8-minute blast, a short but killer total-body workout for those times when you have just a few minutes to work out.

Blanks is a seven-time World Martial Arts Champion, creator of the original Tae-Bo that set aerobics rooms on fire. He’s motivating, personable, and an excellent instructor.
