Anyone tried Taibo style in Aerobic?

I have for a very short time. It is high intensity work out which will definitely get your burning some calories if you can keep up. But, don't be like the people in the commercial for Taibo getting lured to thinking that Taibo teaches them self-defense. Taibo has kicks and punches, but it doesn't teach how to do it properly. Don't ever think this is for self-defense or you will find yourself in a really bad situation.

Try "Gravity Of Love"  by Enigma\n\nI have seen it done, it takes some work incorporating moves that are both slow moving then stepping up the tempo into something faster, but when done right it is only one thing.... breathtaking

Tai Chi Chuan and balance in elderly people\nScientific background\nAbout 30% of people over 65 years old sustain a fall, and this often leads to hip fracture\nand severe disability. Tai Chi (shadow boxing) is widely practised in China and has\nbeen shown to cause both physical and spiritual benefits, especially in old people. It has\nbeen noted that regular practitioners of Tai Chi seldom suffer falls and hip fractures in\nold age, probably because they have good muscular coordination and a calm\npersonality.\nAim of investigation\nTo see if the mental and physical stability and co-ordination of people regularly\npractising Tai Chi is better than that of age- and fitness-matched controls who do not\npractice Tai Chi.\nMethod\nVolunteers aged 65-80 years will be recruited who have attended sessions lasting 30\nminutes at least twice weekly for 2 years at a well-established Tai Chi school on the\noutskirts of Birmingham. This is led by a master who has a thorough understanding of\nthe philosophy of Tai Chi. Control subjects, matched for age, gender, fitness (assessed\nby pulse rate during a standard step test) and duration of regular attendance will be\nrecruited from a neighbouring keep-fit class led by a qualified physiotherapist with no\nknowledge of Tai Chi. Measurements of static postural stability, dynamic balance and\nmuscular co-ordination will be made in the Birmingham hospital rehabilitation unit by\nstaff who are blind to the treatment group of the subjects being tested. Mental state of\nparticipants (especially confidence and anxiety) will be assessed by the Minnesota\nquestionnaire: the completed forms will be sent for scoring to the hospital Department\nof Clinical Psychology. All the forms (identified only by a code number) will be scored\nindependently by two clinical psychologists who are blind to the treatment group.\nAnalysis and interpretation\nThe 5 major endpoints (postural stability, dynamic balance, muscular co-ordination,\nconfidence and anxiety) will be compared within each pair of Tai Chi and control, and\nthe results analysed by a sequential design. For each end-point, in each test-control\npair, the result will be scored positive if the test individual scores better, negative if the\ncontrol scores better, and the result is discarded if the two are exactly equal. With this\ndesign to reach a significant result (P<0.05) will require a minimum of 7 and a\nmaximum of 48 pairs to reach the top boundary (Tai Chi better) the middle boundary\n(no significant difference) or the lower boundary (control better). The hypothesis will\nbe supported if at least 3 of the 5 end-points reach the upper boundary.

I'm only an 8th Kup but I've seen other students practice Joon-gun and I know the move you're talking about, they bring the hands up slow with a loud drawn out exhale don't they? I can't remember anyone ever asking but remember that all Tul represent something as well as incorporate moves, and i know talking to the 2nd Kup students that i've seen practice it that when they are graded the instructors look for your control, switching speed ect. You have to really know the routine, at the lower levels you can memorise a routine and go through it without thinking, but when you have to slow down your stance is very visible, and if it's not good it notices. So all before the change in speed your stances need to be correct and you have to know what you're doing. That however is a practical consequence, instructors take advantage of it to look for things, i don't think it's the real reason. You can ask your instructor about it and see what he says.

Turbo jam sounds fun, its almost identical to Tae Boe (Billy Blanks). Anyways, I've started TaeBo because I found the tapes REALLY cheap at a store and started 14 days ago. I have lost 3 pounds and more importantly 2 inches! I have 37 more pounds to go. But I feel great!

FOR THOSE WHO MUST HAVE NON-IMPACT WORKOUTS, IT IS A GREAT\nEXERCISE MACHINE. YOU GET WHAT YOU PUT INTO IT...EXCELLENT\nFOR LEG MOBILITY, VERY SIMILIAR TO PILATES IN THAT IT REALLY STRETCHES YOUR LEG MUSCLES IF YOU GO FOR FULL EXTENSION. ALSO THE ARM GRIPS ARE GOOD FOR CARDIO. PUMP IT AS FAST AS YOU CAN, REALLY FLY ON THE MACHINE AND KEEP IT\nAT THAT PACE FOR AT LEAST 20 MINUTES TO GET THE MAXIMUM CARDIO WORKOUT. I PROMISE YOU WILL FEEL WHIPPED IF YOU REALLY WORK IT OUT FOR THAT TIME, AT THAT PACE. I BOUGHT THE\nGAZELLE AFTER I RUPTURED MY ACHILLES TENDON, IT IS A GODSEND. I USE IT ON DAYS INBETWEEN THE GYM OR AT TIMES I AM FEELING A LITTLE "HYPER" AND WANT TO WORK IT OUT A LITTLE MORE THAN USUAL. GOOD LUCK!

since it is a gymnastics meet, i am assuming you cannot have any words in the song, so i think Tequilla, is a good option. I hada  routine to that once, and it has a good fast beat, and is easy to make a routine to.

Try the taebo bootcamp dvd.  If that don't challenge you, then nothing will.  I can't go through half of one of dvd's without dying.  Are you working up a good sweat.  You must be in incredible shape.  Taebo burns over 1,000 calories for an hour a workout.  It's the best.  I'm about to do an hour right now.

Yes it is true\n\nYour body "gets used" to whatever exercise you do whether it be a step class or strenght trainig.\n\nIt is very easy to vary the patterns thought.  For example - instead of doing straight bicep curls break them into "3" - pauseing intentially on the way or do it will barbells as opposed to a bar - or go slow or fast.\n\nSimilarly with aerobic - if you run - inject high knees peridodically or run laterally or backwards\n\nPlay with frequency, itensity and duration
