4.0 out of 5 stars Billy delivers once again, 30 Oct 2007
I have to be honest. I was indecisive about whether to buy this because I have a number of Tae Bo DVDs already and questioned if this would have enough new moves to make it worth my while. Well, I can honestly say that I am not disappointed.

Yes there are some moves which you can find in his previous DVDs but there are enough new ones to keep my interest peaked. The work out lasts about 40 minutes and was intense enough to raise my heart rate and cause me to sweat. As usual, there were plenty of straight jabs, upper cuts etc combined with a variety of kicks so your whole body is put through an energetic, fast paced work out. The music was up to date and complemented the workout well.

As usual, Billy was ebullient, motivating, engaging and continually urged you to push yourself harder. You really feel as if he is your personal trainer.

This DVD would suit someone who would like to increase their overall fitness and flexibility. If you are new to Taebo, there is an instructional section.

All in all, a great work out DVD that delivers what it promises and does not have narcisstic celebrity dullards cluttering up the screen with their annoying, inane chatter.

I did not give five stars because Everybody Get Ripped, for me, is the best Tae Bo DVD, particularly if you really want an intense, hard work out that leaves you exhausted at the end.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very Disappointing, 1 Feb 2008
By Celidwen (Kent, UK) - See all my reviews
The problem is that Billy clearly doesn't rehearse his workouts, he just makes them up on the spot. Nowhere was this more evident that in this current DVD. The class are frequently thrown into chaos with people going this way and that, and Billy regularly loses count, does more on one side than the other, and generally confuses the hell out of everybody. I would also say the intervals are way too short to raise your heart rate sufficiently. It's a shame because his ideas are good, it's just the execution that's dreadful. The other thing that makes this so bad is that awful irritating woman who is in the background of every one he's ever done - during this one she just keeps screeching "SIR!!!!" at the top of her voice which makes you want to hit her.

I had really hoped Billy would have improved by now as I do like the theory of Tae Bo but sadly I won't be bothering any more.

If you want a good workout buy the "Ten Minute" Series DVD's "Kickbox Bootcamp" and "Carb and Calorie Burner". They are absolutely brilliant and the ones I always return to.

I'm fairly fit and bought this on the strength of the reviews. I did the whole work-out and barely broke sweat. Read more
