TaeBo

Billy Blanks, Martial Artist And Creator of TaeBo

I always like trying out different workout programs. So a couple of years I borrowed a DVD from a friend.

And I gotta tell ya that I got a really good sweat from what I was following on the screen.

The program is better known as TaeBo and it simply combines numerous training elements from Taekwondo/Karate and Western boxing while creating a high-octane environment in the privacy of your own home.

TaeBo has helped and continues to help millions get and stay in shape.

It is not a self-defense program, even though the man behind TaeBo certainly can defend himself.

He is a 7th degree Taekwondo Black Belt and his name is Billy Blanks.

Before introducing his immensely successful brainchild, Karate Hall of Famer Billy Blanks was actually a very accomplished martial artist and boxing champion (Massachusetts Golden Gloves Champion) which he explains in the following video clip I found for you.

Hope you enjoy it!
