Customer comments on this selection.
 Great DVD a must for Chalene Johnson lovers!
I just loved this DVD. For all of you who have tried Cardio 1, and even 2, this one is great as well! The music is great, and the routines are great! Chalene just knows how to make a workout fun, the time goes by quickly. The routines blend very well with the music and each other! This is another one of my favs. A must for your Chalene collection.
Ammmazing workout!!
I am a huge fan of the Turbo Jam series. I have been using the Cardio Party Mix 1 and 20 minute workout everyday and was ready for a new routine. I bought this one off of EBay and I love it! Now I use both the Cardio Pary 1 and 3 every day! Before trying this one I watched it all the way through so I would have an idea of what the moves were instead of going into it blindly. I'm glad I did. This routine is much more intricate than the Cardio Party 1 is. But I love it. It is the most challenging of the two. I would have chosen a less distracting outfit for Chalene to be wearing but you get past it once the workout starts.
For those who haven't tried Turbo Jam and are just wondering whether to try it or not, you should! The workouts are ammazing and you see results fast! I love the workouts and do them everyday, like I said usually the 2 cardio parties back to back each day. You feel so amazing afterwards like you really worked hard. I'm usually soaking wet with sweat at the end and its just an amazing feeling after working that hard.
Definitely give this workout a try. If you do the other Turbo Jam DVD's you'll love this one!
Don't start with this one.
A few weeks ago, I got the five workout TurboJam set that includes "Learn & Burn", a 20 minute workout, and Cardio Party I. I'm loving Turbo Jam, and highly recommend it. I ordered Cardio Party 3 because I was doing Cardio Party I everyday and recognized that I'd want to rotate some other videos in to avoid boredom.
While I enjoy Cardio Party 3, I think if you start with it you won't enjoy Turbo Jam. Insofar as Turbo Jam has weaknesses, they are more noticeable here, and the strengths are harder to see. Chalene Johnson doesn't use the music as well here, and sometimes it seemed like she was fighting the beat. She does more high impact, and she expects you pick up a lot more without cuing. She's also a bit more annoying, with more chatter and an overly cute little skirt. That's all fine if you're adding this DVD to a Turbo Jam collection, but not a good way to start.
The five workout set that comes with Cardio Party has a slow section that teaches the moves and two very manageable workouts for getting started. Then Cardio Party 1 is a lot of fun, works well with the music, and is a better way to get going.
An update to this review: after quite a bit more TurboJam, I came back to Cardio Party 3. While my original review stands, once you are good at TurboJam and trying to maintain some variety, this could become a favorite. It is higher energy than the others, and harder to learn. As I've gotten better at TurboJam, and my workout requirements more demanding, the challenge of Cardio Party 3 makes it a favorite. I still struggle with how the class is moving to the music, but as I learn the routine I'm able to look away and concentrate on the beat myself. I'd buy this one last...by then you'll be ready for it.
Fit. Fun. Guaranteed.
This cardio workout is actually so much more. Chalene Johnson is one of the few fitness instructors who understands music and what moves are fun, rhythmic, make you love your cool self, and challenge your muscles hard at the same time. Get this with the Turbo Jam Five Rockin' Workouts DVD so you know how to do the moves, and to get ready cardiovascularly. This is a KILLER workout, yet is low/no impact, so if you've got creaky knees, hate jumping, or live above the first floor, it's ideal. I'm in good shape (thanks to the Turbo Jam series), but anytime I gain a few pounds, I do this DVD 3 times a week for 2 weeks and the weight vanishes. That's how good it is. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right?? Another plus: Chalene puts fun skits at the end of her videos, so you find yourself giggling with her and "the class" as you're wiping away the sweat. She is all about fun, but she is also an extremely solid instructor. I think you'll love this.
advanced cardio workout
I'll begin this review with teh following warning: DO NOT ATTEMPT TURBO JAM UNLESS YOU KNOW THE ELITE 11 MOVES
You'll get frustrated and quit. The workout is really fast paced and the choreography is layered rapidly.
Expect 50 minutes of intense and fun cardio fit for the advanced. This is non-stop people!
