And speaking of Turbo Jam DVD s: which is better? Don't wanna waste my savings again.

Exactly. I'm alternating tae-bo with callanetics not to transform into Schwarznegger

I love turbo jam. I love the music. I like the 20minute workout the best because it really gets you moving and you have the choice of doing all the work outs high or low cardio. On the days that I feel I'm at the top of my game, I would do the 45 minutes workout(Cardio Party)

I think it was the 8-min Tae Bo tape. It kept throwing me off whenever Billy would stop working out but everyone else would keep moving.

I only have the 1st set of Turbo Jam...with the Learn and Burn, 20min., Cardio Party 1, Turbo Sculpt, and Ab Jam. This is a good set, and I, like the above poster LOVE the 20min. DVD. I have heard good things about her Maximum results set as well...has Cardio Party 3 and something like Crunch, Punch Kick or some name like that.

I know that QVC has the beginning set for the same price as the Beach Body one and I think you get an additional tape as well (Booty Jam or something but I haven't heard the reviews on that yet). QVC has a better, more reliable return policy so if you don't like them....BUT, i hitnk the ones on QVC are on back-order right now from the last I heard.

Hope all that helps!

TURBO JAM ROCKS...

I am an exercise fanatic...and have done alot of different exercises...I don't think i have ever found anything I loved as much as Turbo Jam......I do it EVERY day...with weights....

Chalene is AMAZING..she is positive...motivated...and naturally hip and fun...you can tell she doesn't try to be antying she isn't...her music is beyond super..and the moves work places you don't usually work with other workouts...

I used to do Tae Bo...and i still think that Tae Bo is great...but i feel that Turbo jam is alot better..and alot more fun....

i have the Cardio party 3...along withe the total body sculpt live DVDs....i have been doing it for 3 weeks now..and see AMAZING results...

I do both DVD's together everyday...i do the cardio party 3 first..and sweat like heck..and then right after..i pop the body sculpt dvd in and tone my whole body...

LETS JAMMMMMMM it..

Many thanks..

Casandra

Anyone still doing Turbo Jam. I bought the set a few months ago but for the last week I've really been doing great with it.
I love the music and I actually look forward to the workout. Since I've been doing Burn in the morning and the 20 min workout at night I had to take a break yesterday. My whole body was sore. I guess I overdid it a bit.

I hope someone is still Turbo Jamming.

I had to pack mine all away We moved last week and we are staying with DH's parents for the next 3-6 months so there isn't any room to Jam. We are going to look for a house with either 4+ bedrooms (giving us one extra to work out in) or a basement hehe.....treadmill, TV/DVD player and a punching bag is all I would need.

I have been Turbo Jammin for about 6 months - on and off. I LOVE it!! The fat blaster is the best - all turbos in 1/2 hour. I love cardio party and cardio party remix as well. Makes you feel so worked out!!

I'll have to give this a look, I've got some of the other beachbody workouts like Slim In 6, so I like the way they do things there. I checked out the website and it looks good. Gotta scour ebay and hopefully get one on the cheap

I like Turbo-Jam, I think it's lighter than Tae-Bo and I'm able to follow better
