Billy Blanks PT 24/7 Review: Combo Sculpt

Today's Review: Billy Blanks Tae Bo PT 24/7: Combo Sculpt
Billy Blanks, 2011 **** (4 of 5 stars)

Billy leads this 32 minute cardio & strength min workout with Shelly & 6ish other background exercisers. They work out in a nice gym set. You will need your PT gloves & bands for this workout.

 Exercises include: side kick, side punch & side leg lift, lunge & punch down, speed bag w/ butterfly jog, wide step up w/ military press, burpees, fast knee pulls, military press & static pliet, front & back kicks, fast punches w/ static squat, and static lunge & speed bag. Mostly cardio with some light strength work. You perform each exercise or combo and then up the pace to a "cardio pace."

I rate this a solid intermediate workout.  The pace in this one is good- not as many breaks as the Cardio dvd. Billy's cuing is good as is his demeanor. I worked up a nice sweat. I received this dvd to review.

  4. I had gastric bypass 4 months ago and I have lost 100 pounds and I am needing something to help tone and continue to lose. This looks like it would really help me.

  6. Like the idea that it's 32'. That's easier to fit into my schedule instead of the hour long ones that seem to be more prevalent.
