This is the first Billy Blanks DVD I have ever used and will be the last. I like kickboxing DVDs and saw great reviews and this one was super cheap so I decided to try it. I'm glad it was cheap because there were two things about it that made it almost unbearable. The main thing is his female support exercisers spent the entire time counting 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 loudly in the background as Billy was directing the movements. Since I know how to count to 8 just fine, that was unnecessary and very distracting. The second thing was those balls everyone used that only he sells that he kept trying to sell viewers. I did fine with two pound weights. I did the strength part, and although the exercisers were sweating bullets, I barely sweated at all, and I don't consider myself particularly fit. I will try other kickboxing DVDs next time.Read full review
I bought this DVD for a change to my workout routine. I like the variety of movements. Can't compare it to other workout DVD's. This is a great workout. To be honest it's too fast for me but I'm gaining on it. Something unusual about it, since I started I haven't been sore from the workout the next day. I have trouble with some of the combination movements but have improved so they are not impossible just more complicated. This workout definitely has to be used for awhile. The presentation is very good in my opinion.
OMG I don't know how people can make it through the whole work out! I do about 35 of the 45 minutes and i about collapse. Of course i just started a week an a half ago... After the first day, i was sore all over for days, so you might not want to use the weights the whole first work out if you are just starting. Shows it works tho!
I was looking for a continuous workout. I need to be moving constantly to keep my heart rate in the target fat burning zone. The Strength segment,my heartrate was more up und down. He does a strength exercise and then a power excercise (very effective), but continually for 30 or so minutes. In the Power workout I can keep my heart rate in fat burning zone for about 33 minutes.
I love this DVD! I used to take kickboxing clases and everything on this dvd is very familiar to me! I like how he does it slow motion and then very fast, I need to get used to that,but I always can pause and pracrice and then do it again with them! Great workout.
