Tae-Bo Workout: 4 Pack
Billed as the "future of fitness" and hawked by numerous celebrities, Billy Blanks's Tae-Bo actually deserves much of the hype it's receiving. A mixture of boxing punches and martial arts kicks, Tae-Bo is fun and easy. One of the best elements of this four-tape set is that the first tape (which is 40 minutes long), Tae-Bo: Instructional, lays out the movements you need to successfully complete a workout. Once you've mastered the steps, you won't have to fast-forward through half the tape to get to the workout, nor will your workout be slowed down by the repeated lessons. After you feel comfortable with the movements (and they're really quite easy to follow; nothing too complicated to trip you up), you're ready to move on to Tae-Bo: Basics, a 27-minute workout (5 minutes of warm-up, 18 minutes of Tae-Bo, and 4 minutes of cool-down) that will have your heart pounding and your body sweating. Next comes Advanced, a 57-minute workout that will have your heart racing, pulse pounding, and sweat glands working overtime. There's razzmatazz on the moves, with slightly more complicated combinations that should be fairly easy to master if you've completed the first two tapes. This video seriously raises the bar on the difficulty factor.

Tae-Bo Workout: Instructional and Basic
Billed as the "future of fitness" and hawked by numerous celebrities, Billy Blanks's Tae-Bo actually deserves much of the hype it's receiving. A mixture of boxing punches and martial arts kicks, Tae-Bo is fun and easy. One of the best elements of this two-tape set is that the first tape (which is 40 minutes long), Tae-Bo: Instructional, lays out the movements you need to successfully complete a workout. Once you've mastered the steps, you won't have to fast-forward through half the tape to get to the workout, nor will your workout be slowed down by the repeated lessons. After you feel comfortable with the movements (and they're really quite easy to follow; nothing too complicated to trip you up), you're ready to move on to Tae-Bo: Basics, a 27-minute workout (5 minutes of warm-up, 18 minutes of Tae-Bo, and 4 minutes of cool-down) that will have your heart pounding and your body sweating. The only downside to this tape is the less-than-exciting music. Blanks, a seven-time World Martial Arts champion, is a superb instructor, providing encouragement and careful instruction (if you don't know by the end of the tape to hold in your stomach, that's no one's fault but your own). Not only is Tae-Bo great exercise for all levels, but the punches and kicks are wonderful for working out stress and aggression. This is the aerobics exercise video for people who are bored by aerobics.

Tae-Bo Workout: Advanced and Tae-Bo Live! Sneak Preview
When Billy Blanks called this workout Advanced, he wasn't fooling around. This 57-minute workout
will have your heart racing, your pulse pounding, and your sweat glands working overtime. The
familiar moves from Tae-Bo Instructional and Basic are here, but Blanks has put a little razzmatazz
on them, adding slightly more complicated combinations that should be fairly easy to master if you've
completed the first two tapes. The new moves--which combine Tae-Bo's patented mix of boxing
punches and martial arts kicks--make this video much more exciting, but they also considerably raise
the bar on the difficulty factor. In addition to the short warm-up, the cool down, and the 30 minutes
of Tae-Bo, Advanced Tae-Bo also includes 18 minutes of muscle-crunching floor work. Blanks is a
supportive coach, reminding you to go at your own pace (stop for water if necessary), yet
encouraging you to push yourself as much as you can. This is a terrific workout when you're
ready to take Tae-Bo to the next level. A 20-minute sneak preview of Tae-Bo Live is included
with this video.
