I see that in different threads VFers ask about this new BBS rebounding DVD
OK...
I have BBS ... and honestly... I still have mixed feelings about it. I wanted to like it really...
About me:
- 35 years old
- 97 lbs , 5" short
with TA sort of proportions I think
- Polish girl (sorry for my grammar or typos
- I always have a problem to find a cardio I like
- I use bellicon/strong bungees
- I love: HDM trampoline, TA trampoline workouts <3, Lauren Roxburgh trampoline workouts. I like running but it bulks me up plus my hip hurts...
- I love very high rep very low weight resistance
- I do mostly TA streaming... it really made a difference to my body
So my thoughts about BBS trampoline workout:
- the music is techno style, loud, mechanical music... I accept generic music but this is really bad. I don't get it how someone who has so many connections in entertainment industry can't pay some nice composer to make some pleasant, upbeat music on order.
- I don't like the white set + white room... I can't see the moves
- I don't like averyone doing this perfectly, like some artificial cheerleaders + they are in a stage makeup like in some Moulin Rouge... really. Crazy. I prefer TA dripping with sweat... Plus Simole without a makeup is a diffferent person (she showed some before after pictures on her instagram)... and it would be nice to sweat with a real Simone, like I'm real in front of my mirror...
- I don't like the structure of it...
1. warm up on the floor - which I don't understand why it's on the floor
2. cardio on the trampoline. I have Bellicon/strong (I'm really small, 44 kg = 97 lbs) and it's impossible to keep up with those 360 kicks. It's also too choreographed and not enough fun (due to lousy music and boring, repetitive moves and a lot of take it from the top... )
3. the same as number 2 but with a little bit different moves
4. the same as number 2 and 3 with a little bit different moves
5. upper body - with bbs tone-y-bands (I don't have them so I used light weights like with Hamelin) it's also pretty boring...
6. 2+3+4 mixed
7. lower body - I'm short and I tend to agree with TA that my body bulks too much from shuats, lunges etc - and this part can be bulking for body like mine. Buy If I was tall - I would really like this segment. It's good, but not for my body... One thing I don't like is doing barre moves with my sneakers on (and Simone have some of them). Katia from dancebody, Lekfit - they all do them like this and I really think my form is much worse in shoes.
8. Planks/Abs - this segment I really like. It's new and creative and fon
9. some cooldown
I did it from my memory so sorry if I mixed something up
My verdict: I don't see myself doing this workout often...
I prefer my trampoline workouts to be more fun and freestyle (I don't listen to tracy when she is warning me that I can't be off beat, I do my own stuff a lot even when doing trampoline cardio with a video). This one is hard to use on this manner...
What I really liked it planks/abs - but it's not enough for the price.
What I regret is - that noone does a trampoline workout with TA-like upper body moves (here there is short sequence of it with tone-y-bands, but it's too short and not very creative... I only see it as a way to sell the BBS band...)
I hope I didn't offend anyone
It's just my thoughts that may be helpful for some of you
