me and billy blanks are friends
A few years ago, I had put on some major weight and decided to shed a few pounds. I had no idea of what weight loss program or exercise regiment to try because it was the first time in my life I was overweight. I saw a lot of infomercials offering various products and exercise routines to help shed the pounds, but I know how much of a gimmick most of those are. But for some reason, one stood out. It was a Tae Bo infomercial. And no matter how cheesy he is, I bought into the concept and ordered some workout videos.
I have never tried another program. I mean, I've purchased new Tae Bo videos, but never any outside of the Billy Blanks collection. Actually, my boss tried to get me to try Hip Hop Abs, but I couldn't take that guy seriously and shut it off less than 10 minutes in.
Anyway, when I'm actually faithfully and consistently doing the Tae Bo routine, I shed weight and feel great. Consistency is the thing I need to work on the most, however.
Anyway, it's the first and only time I've ever actually ordered something I've seen in an infomercial. And I can honestly say that I'm glad I did. I wasn't disappointed.
He is really cheesy though. Polly and I actually get a good chuckle out of the video from time to time. But if you're looking for a workout routine, check it out.

I have Slim in Six with Debbie Siebers - bought from an infomercial. It is an awesome workout...3 levels on 2 cds, definately worth the $$.
Me and Billy hang out every other day. =) On the off days I do cardio combined with light weights.
Yea, a lot of people know you really get results with the Billy Blanks stuff. A lot of folks in the military use his product. Still, my favorite way to cardio is using the crosstrainer at the gym.
My parents think they're fat. Why does everyone think they're fat? Everyone on the planet exept me thinks they're fat!
the floors is hot. the floor is hot. the floor is hot. the floor is hot.
