Sports reviews of Billy Boot Camp Box Set DVD
Customer Review: Um, if the people on the DVD cant do this workout, how am I supposed to???
Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
I suppose I am somewhat of a Tae Bo fan. I keep buying the videos and DVD's, but just to let them collect dust, because I can barely do them. Which brings me to this thing. This workout is really, really advanced. The people on the video look like they are in pain, and they are really in good shape. So how is someone who is even in moderately good shape supposed to make use of this workout. There is really only one modification for the less fit, no bands, but that doesnt help too much. I suppose someone in really good shape would find this to be a good workout, so perhaps, when I am that person one day, Ill use this DVD.
I have the original Tae Bo, Tae Bo live and Tae Bo impact, all of which are the same workout set in different places and with different equipment. Blanks must be strapped for cash, because he keeps making the same video over and over again. The only new thing in this one is the bands, but you can buy $5 bands from Walmart and use them with a different Tae Bo.
I am really happy that I didnt buy this thing and only saw someone else's because it is not worth the money, If you have one Tae Bo, you have them all.
Customer Review: Blanks not up to Customer Service
Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
The 2 stars is not for the product itself. I love this Boot Camp series very much. I bought it when I was in the USofA recently (I travel a lot for my job) and used all of the DVD's each about 4 times before they went belly-up. Yea, you read right, they simply stopped working. I have region free players at home in Europe and of course my lap top is basically a region 1. I am an American so I pretty much love listening to English. My big problem was I emailed the Blanks Corp and was told it was my fault that I couldn't get my DVD's to work, but they would send me a replacement. They sent (to my USofA address) a Pilates DVD to replace all 4 of the DVD's that died on me. I have used the Tae Bo for several years and love the fast paced energetic fun Billy Blanks, but disliked how I was treated by the company. So the 2 stars is for bad service!Customer Review: Hard for Beginners
Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
The videos are fun and fast paced. If you are not in the best of shape I wouldn't recommend these DVDs to start. I would suggest starting with another work out and then moving on to this after you are in better physical shape. I know that when I first started working out these videos were too much for me. Billy jumps right into the workouts and you get tired easily. Once you are in good shape you might want to try these, but start with something easier. By the time you are half way through the work out you are tired and sweating and you want to quit. Only attempt to do these DVDs if you are already in good shape and you just want to stay in shape.Customer Review: Should have read the reviews
Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
I bought the set in a rush without reading the reviews, big mistake! The Cardio Boot Camp is missing which makes the prescribed program not work as the workout that you need for week 2 and 3 is missing. The beginner boot camp is boring though the advanced is challenging fun. If I knew what wasn't included I wouldn't have bought it. They should list what's not included in the description. It seems somewhat deceptive.Customer Review: Not one of his best
Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
I am a huge fan of Billy Blanks but was discouraged by this Boot Camp set. I bought the entire set and it was a bit frustrating with his too-fast movements and uneven sets. I am in really good shape and didn't find the advanced disc challenging or as fun as his previous discs. Here's hoping to him coming out with a better set next time.
