Summary: Wonderful!
Review: This is a great workout for people like me who need to be encouraged in the Lord to get in shape. Yes, it's probably not as advanced as his other videos, but it's something you can do to get a taste of what Tae Bo is like without getting frustrated! I haven't worked out in a long while and this video really got me going. It's a whole lot of fun to do and you really sweat! The leg work towards the end of the video will help you get major results on your buns and hips! Trust me, it's really helped me! For those who think Billy preaches too much, you must remember this is a Believers' Workout. I don't see it as preaching anyway - it's encouragement. For Christians that encouragement has a source and it's Jesus.

Summary: Pump It Up with the Power Within Workout!
Review: What an inspirational workout! After my third child was born, I needed a fresh way to lose the post-baby pounds. My prayers were answered with this workout! This efficient fitness routine challenges my entire body in a relatively short amount of time, about 45 minutes. The eight participants include both men and women, some in top physical condition and some who, well, look like I did when I first tried it out. So I knew that if they could do it, so could I! Billy Blanks provides simple instruction and demonstrates the proper techniques for an upper cut, roundhouse kick, jab and other moves - all while encouraging you to call on your inner power, Jesus Christ. Usually the first 8-count set is done slow. Then Billy adds "power" and speeds it up. Even a person new to Tae Bo can "Walk by faith, not by sight" (2Cor 5:7) and follow along on the first shot. I find that very refreshing after trying to follow the complicated dance routines in some other exercise videos. At first I did struggle to maintain my balance during the final phase, but Banks suggests a chair for those exercising solo. The workout is as follows:
PRAYER
WARM-UP & STRETCH (3 min)
STANDING WORKOUT (20 min)
FLOOR WORK (6 min)
MORE STANDING WORK (6 min)
COOL DOWN (7 min).
