 The Best!!! October 5, 2001
10 out of 11 found this review helpful
I have quite a collection of Taebo tapes, and have to say that this is by far THE BEST!!!. Both tapes are faster..the pace is much, much quicker, and Billy is absolutely unrelenting...there are no breaks for a solid 52 mins!!!! Time and time again when I think it can't get any more challenging it does..I have done the advanced tapes 4 times this week,and my arms are so sore (in that pleasurable sort of way!), and my waist definitely got a good workout. On one tape all the floor work is done standing up which makes it even more challenging, and on the other tape the floor work is just minimal...The tapes are a good buy, and if you are a Taebo Junkie you will definitely enjoy these as part of your collection
 They do mean "ADVANCED!" January 17, 2002

I worked out to the orignal Basic for 3 months. I felt great and thought I was ready for the big time- "ADVANCED". Alas my intentions were bigger than my muscles. I cannot imagine every being ready for this tape. An HOUR of DOUBLE-TIME Tae Bo seems a bit sadistic. (At one point I actually stopped and cheered the participants on incredulously. Even the assistants looked like they were ready to faint - one of which I'm convinced is a marine.) Some people like glimpses of death during their workout (I am not one of them). But to each her own. I just thought others should be warned the word "advanced" is not to be taken lightly.
OUTSTANDING!!!! June 17, 2002

These two videos are sensational! You get an amazingly high-powered, energetic, and extremely effective workout. These videos are absolutely advanced, but that is what I was looking for so I was so pleased with the tapes. They are 60 minutes long and you are "going" the entire time at high speed. I am an advanced exerciser-with a lot of running, lifting, step, basketball.... and I have never sweat like I do when I am doing these videos. I actually raised my arms in victory after I completed the first video.
These are motivating videos that will really make you work, but you will be so glad that you gave the effort that you will just keep coming back. I really enjoy doing these tapes, I don't just do them to get the cardio done- I love it! Billy is such a genuine guy, a real motivator with excellent instruction. He moves quickly here, but he does tell you that if you don't know the form, go back to the instructional videos. But realistically if you don't know the correct form, you probably should not be doing the advanced tapes. I watch Shellie, in the background, for correct form when Billy is making his rounds of encouragement; she is awesome! I feel like I can hang in there a little longer by watching her determination, and before I know it-I'm done!! I will definitely buy all of the advanced ripped tapes, and I am waiting now for the Focus Abs and Glutes tape. I highly recommend these tapes if you are an advanced exerciser and enjoy a challenge-they are excellent!!!!
 More fun-not as effective as the first advanced tape October 4, 2002

I really enjoy these tapes, but I find that the original advanced Tae-bo tape gives me a much better and more consistent cardiovascular workout. I don't work up as much of a sweat with Get Ripped and some of the moves are just too fast to be really effective. I also find that Get Ripped is tough on the knees, even if you follow Billy's advice carefully.Having said this, Get Ripped is also more fun and the music is far better. I rotate between Original Advanced, Glutes and Abs and Advanced Get Ripped to keep things interesting. Just watch those KNEES!
 Tae Bo with ADD June 3, 2004
8 out of 11 found this review helpful
I do not like these workouts. I have the original Tae bo workouts, and find them much easier to follow along to. In Tae Bo II Blanks moves so quickly and doesn't spend enough time on each move. It is like watching a person with ADD do a workout. There are also so many people as back up people that it's hard to follow. Too many faces cause much more confusion. If you're new to Tae Bo I highly recommend the originals.
