From the Back Cover
Feel thrilling at thirty, fabulous at forty, fantastic at fifty and sensational at sixty with TaeBo Gold.
TaeBo Gold offers a brilliantly energising TaeBo workout whatever your age but it contains tips and moves to help you use TaeBo at its maximum effect as you get older, or if you are a beginner, and as you get fitter you can make the workout harder.
Like all TaeBo workouts, TaeBo Gold is an easy to follow combination of tension-busting moves from self-defence, dance and boxing. With kicks, knee lifts, jabs and punches, it will keep you in great shape, energise you and burn calories.
Remember, if you haven’t worked out for a while just take the workout at your own pace, TaeBo has been created to make working out fun, so finding the motivation to keep going is easy. Do TaeBo regularly and you should notice an improvement in both your fitness and energy level. This video contains a 38 minute workout followed by an instruction routine which takes you slowly and carefully through the moves. If you have not done TaeBo before it is advised that you go past the workout and do the instruction routine first.
Please consult your health care professional before starting this or any other workout programme.

Customer Reviews

Safe and satisfying
The tae-bo workout for those over 30. Well, this 38-year-old loved it, felt that the moves were properly explained (you must do that section first if you are new to tae-bo), and that it really was suitable for all fitness levels and ages. The people in the class certainly suggested that, being a real mixed bag! I am going to be brave and do some harder tae-bo DVDs as well when I feel a bit more confident, but that won't make this one redundant, as you need different levels of exercise for different days, don't you? Terrific fun.

TBG is wonderful even for TB beginners under 30!
I decided to try Tae Bo (TB) b/c I was in the mood to try something new but I also wanted something my mom could do with me b/c she also wanted to get fit. The video was challenging enough, even if it says its for 30 and over! I absolutely love the video and have began to add more to my Tae Bo workout DVD's and videos!

I want more!
This is a great workout for a Tae Bo/Kickboxing beginner or low intermediate. It explains everything clearly with a 20 minute beginners' how-to section, and throughout the main workout there is good cueing and suggestions on modifications if you can't do certain things.

The people in the class are an endearingly rag tag bunch of non-professionals of all ages. They're dressed in non-trendy mismatched clothes, occassionally struggle with the moves, but look like they're having a great time. I prefer this approach to the DVDs full of perfectly toned little gym bunnies because they make me feel so inadequate. This was fun. And I reckoned if 70+ year old little old Margaret can kick like a Rockette, there's hope for me too.

It's occassionally a bit cheesy, especially when BB does his talk to camera "I can see you there at home" thing, but there's not a lot of this and it doesn't detract from the workout. My only complaint is that the main workout is so short, only 35 minutes. A good introduction to Tae Bo that left me wanting more.
