beginner
If you are a beginner to exercise as I was...this is the DVD for you...very great detailed instructions, but you can follow the instructions easily as you exercise along with him...don't get me wrong...if you are just beginning it may take you a while to get through the whole session, but well worth the money

This IS a Bootcamp!!!
Folks! This workout is no joke. I thought I could get through basic training without stopping. Well, I could not even get through first 20 minutes and had to stop because the burn in the muscles was just unbearable. This is a very thorough workout. Here's what to expect.
First of all, this workout builds endurance. If you reach a point where you get through the entire workout without interruptions then you are guaranteed to obtain an endurance of an athlete. I liked the bands, but they are usefull only for the upper body exercises. When Billy Blanks began the legs routine, the bands were just on my way and frankly did not add any resistance to the kicks. So feel free to stop using the bands once you begin the kicks. And please do not even try to get through the entire DVD if you are a beginner or only somewhat in shape. What good would it be if you have sore muscles and cannot even feel it because you died during that push-up routine? Take breaks and slowly build your endurance. Maybe after about a month you can try to be a hero and actually complete this workout and still be able to walk to a shower rather than have someone else get you there.

Basic Boot Camp
If you are looking for a cardio workout, this DVD is not for you. However, if you want strength training, you'll be pleased. He does go a little bit too fast at times (which tends to make for sloppy form for anyone who is not experienced in general kick-boxing like moves), but overall, you'll feel this work-out in your legs. I'm just disappointed it wasn't more cardio based.

HARD!!
This workout is so hard.I had to stop 2 times because I had to run for water and I couldn't even finish the whole DVD! I like the workout because they move at a fast pace but sometimes I couldn't keep up.Also the floor exercises are way to advanced for my taste I'll work my way up there.I did about 30 to 35 minutes of this and I was dripping in sweat.Anybody who loves cardio workouts and punching and kicks this is for them.Even though they do some streaches in the begining I advise you to streach before doing this.Now I'm kinda scared to see what the Ultimate Bootcamp is like.I ordered the Bun and Thigh Roller and I'll be using that and this but belive me only 20 minutes of the Basic Training Bootcamp a day along with 10 minutes of the Bun and Thigh Roller.Thats exactly 30 inutes of exercising.

Unbelievable Workout...
I've been an advanced exerciser for many years now and have especially loved Taebo. When this came out, I had to give it a try. My sister had purchased it so she let me give the basic video a try. Oh my gosh!!! I couldn't believe how sore I was. I watched the video first then did it. It was so much more challenging then it looked when I watched it through. I used to think that my shoulders were one of my strongest body parts, but I was really struggling because those bands make such a difference. Even though I was sore, I asked my husband to buy the set for Christmas and am loving the videos.
