I’ve been doing the Tae Bo:Cardio workout, and he does get you warmed up and stretched first. And gives you alternatives if you can’t quite kick high enough yet, or whatever. I have fun doing this workout, but it is tiring!

It is safe. It’s hard at first, but the only way it’s unsafe is if you’re pregnant or under 13 years old.

I started slowly on Tae Bo.After having 5 kids I needed something that would get the weight off quick and give me energy. I was 5 weeks postpartum and i did bootcamp. No I did not do it at the speed of the DVD. I did it at a pace that was comfortable. After about 3 weeks I was up to 1 hour of Tae Bo a day 4-5 times a week. I lost 60 pounds 4 years ago,and have kept the weight off. Not everybody can do it. Just like not everybody can do P90X. Find what works. I have no complaints!!

it’s best to start with the basic tae-bo first. not only that but ALWAYS stretch before exercising so that you don’t injure yourself. i’m just gettin started on the tae-bo and my favorite is This is Tae Bo

it is the third time I play Taebo! I used to work out at the gym but I really didnt get good results. Machines are boring and u dont get a work out for all ur body. Taebo is great and it is a stress-relief too!

I think tae bo is a great way to shed the pounds fast. And Billy does sterch with every tape and tells you to stop and get water or take a break if your tired you know your body do what you can and stop use your brain.(ANOTHER MUSCLE)

I have been practicing taebo for years (at least 6) and I have never had a problem, I love it and with each new program it just gets better, right now I love the resistance bands that come with boot camp, in 8 weeks I will order the balance stick, with this program I lost 130 pounds and I have never had a sprained/slipped/sore back ever. I am not a flexible person, I never have been, if I see a move that I am not fast enough for or it looks way to complicated I walk in place until the next move comes and I get right back into the program. Billy even says if you feel tired or dont think you can just get some water and come right back into it!
if you dont like taebo, try the firm, its very cut and dry and will get your butt in shape just as well as Billy will

I love Tae Bo. It isn’t dangerous! I lost 25 pounds so far, and have went from a size 12 to a size 6 (160 lbs. to 130 lbs.) I am living proof that his bootcamp WORKS if you have the STAMINA and will power to keep up with it!. you just have to be committed to doing it! If anything, I am more dangerous from doing it…
I still do it 3 times a week to keep my body. my body is getting toner & firmer by the day….. my goal is to lose 10 more pounds…
I feel confident that I can defend myself now if anyone was to attack me in an alley. lol.

TAEBO is awesome. If you cant follow the tapes I laugh at you. My nine yr old does it with me and he loves it. My 18 month is already starting the kicking. If you follow what he says YOU WILL SEE RESULTS. You have to do this it is SOOOO FUN and his daughter Shelly is so fun and energetic. I absolutely love these tapes and do them twice a day because they make me feel so good inside and out. DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can’t believe you just rented the basic book camp. This set comes with an introductory tape (that you are told to use in the beginning of the bc video). In that introductory tape you are taught how to perform all of the moves and how to sequence the kicks. It sort of sounds like the video was a little too difficult for you and you might have been looking for an “excuse” not to do it. It really isn’t for everyone although most people who are into physically demanding sports really like it.

Wow!!! I’m reading all these comments and i’m floored. Someone who hasn’t done Taebo before is really ignorant and did not give it a try. Billy always starts with a warm-up. I actually think in his Bootcamp, his warm-ups are actually too long for me… You get soo addicted to Taebo that you want to get going and working out than to do 20 minutes of warm-up which Logtar thinks people should do.. Sure warm-ups are good for you.. but my god…. get with the program …love Taebo!!!!!

You guys really miss my point. I can keep up with the program, I am sure it is an excellent program for some people… but even someone with experience could get hurt by doing those exercise without proper stretching and warm up. Those exercises are dangerous and I believe that you can get really hurt by them.

IF you are too fat to handle the bootcamp start with the basics…they are out there and you need them to keep up with the bootcamp series…i practice taebo daily, ab bootcamp in the morning and the power workout at night and my body has changed remarkably and i love doing it…but you are not very smart to just jump into the bootcamp series DUH! and yes there are warnings…at least in the power workout billy emphasizes the importance of the foundations video, so pooh on you for your ignorance!!!!
