Hard...hard....hard
13 April 2007
Format:DVD
I am a Taebo and B.blanks fan, and I've been looking for a killer workout. I started back in the late 90s with the original 4 tape vhs set, and I also own Cardio and Bootcamp 2 series. I've rented a couple others, because I have been looking for the hardest most advanced workout I could find. Those other ones are good, even though Cardio wasn't as challenging as I had hoped for. Boot Camp 2, I do both workouts back to back for the killer burn I desire, so its not challenging enough. My search is over with Get Ripped Series. I found this jem on Amazon, and I've read some great reviews. Its a 2 disk set with 6 workouts: 2 8 minute, 2 basic, and 2 advanced workouts. Billy don't play on these workouts folks. The basic workout is much harder than the bootcamp ones, and the advanced ones are killer. You are talking near 60 minutes from start to finish or stretching and pure workout hell. Billy pushes you at a pace that I have to work my way up to. Boot Camp 2 is good, but I have to do both workouts back to back to get the burn from just one of the Ripped Advanced workouts. I freaking love and you will too, once you build some stamina. The fact the entire set is under ten bucks is a plus too. Go for it and you won't be sorry.

Really great
18 Oct 2007
Format:DVD
I have had bad knees for years. I enjoy jogging, doing kettlebells, etc, however cannot do those things on a regular basis without making my knees worse. I was very apprehensive that this workout would be the same. To my relief, my knees feel good even after doing the basic workouts almost every day for the past 3 weeks.
Yesterday I moved from the basic to the advanced. I really worked up a good sweat doing 45 minutes (didn't make it to the end). I occasionally was forced to drop the intensity or put a foot down during the leg raises, and had a little trouble with a few of the moves/combos, but I am learning fast. I am confident that within 3 weeks I will be able to complete this workout and keep pace with the "class".
This is a great set to start with. The instructional is important for those new to Tae Bo. It not only teaches the proper form but explains why the move should be done that way. The set allows you progress and the 2 advanced workouts are probably all you need to get in great shape if done on a regular basis at high intensity.
Another reviewer didn't care for Billy constantly talking through the workout. I can understand how the somewhat repetitive instruction and cheerleading might get old for more experienced people, but I really appreciate his positive energy and reminders about proper form. I find him very inspirational and not at all annoying thus far. I look forward to these workouts.

Great Work Out
12 Mar 2008
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I'm a Billy Blanks Tae Bo fan, and I really enjoyed this workout. I was just getting back into Tae Bo, so the Basic workouts were great. I progressed to the advanced and really noticed a difference. I did these every day for 6 weeks and lost 15 pounds, and really noticed a difference in my body.
