Product Description
From Amazon.com
Billy Blanks created the original TaeBo, which spawned the cardio kickboxing trend. Now Blanks is back with a two-tape set that presents his full-contact impact workout. This means that you're not just punching and kicking the air--you're using a kickboxing bag (like a long punching bag on a base, obtainable from the TaeBo Web site). This is an energetic, challenging workout and a well-produced video. Blanks motivates and gives instructions, with plenty of technique, while another class member cues the moves and counts the reps--very effective. The music is rousing, and the class members are so fit you'll just want to stare at them.
Tape 1 gives a 30-minute introduction, which is anything but easy. Blanks frequently stops the workout to teach the technique of a move, then you drill the move over and over, first without the bag, then with it. Tape 2 goes faster, presuming that you've already mastered Tape 1, and includes more moves. Blanks is an excellent instructor, clear and motivating. Recommended for experienced cardio kickboxers only. --Joan Price

Great Work Out,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tae-Bo Impact (VHS Tape)
This is a great bag work out. Would like more combinations but even still you get a great sweat and proper instruction on form as well. This is the closest I have seen to a real tae-bo impact class that you'd get at your local gym/karate school.

Best workout video I've seen,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tae-Bo Impact (VHS Tape)
I first bought the Tae Bo videos in high school after seeing an informercial. I really wanted to lose weight, but I hate the typical repititious exercises like running or biking, so I gave it a try. This is by far the best workout you'll find out there. Not only did the Tae BO videos help me lose serious weight and tone my muscles, but they turned me on to kickboxing in general, which I love. Four years later I'm exceptionally fit, and still using the Tae Bo tapes when I can't make a live kickboxing class. I would reccommend this to anyone.

This workout is AWESOME!! Much better than the 1st video!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tae-Bo Impact (VHS Tape)
I have been a certified aerobics instructor and into cardo-kickboxing for about 4 years. When I tried the original Tae-Bo tapes I was a little disappointed at the poor cueing, lack of proper warm up and stretching, etc., so when I got a stationary training bag and was looking for a video that incorporated a heavy bag, I found the Tae-Bo Impact tapes. I worried I might not like it (and I really hate buying tapes that never wind up being used!). This tape was really great! Billy Blanks let's someone else do the counting while he pays particular attention to safety and form, encouraging you to hit that bag!!! The rest of the people on the video are focused and really into it, and that makes you want to give it your all! I really enjoyed this workout and hope more varieties come out soon!
