Barry's Bootcamp Complete Workout System Reviews

• Barry's Bootcamp System - I Love Love Love It!

  
  By A1SEXSKFPBQ682 on 2008-09-16
  ALRIGHT PEOPLE - I started 30 days ago. I am down 20 pounds. I am also down 3 inches off the waist and hps. one inch off each thigh, one inch off each bicep. my strength energy libido and level of excitement grows everyday, as I see results everyday. Oh, by the way, I did weigh 260 pounds, 5'7", permanently disabled, have lupus, and had a baby 19 months ago. How is that for encouragement? This program rocks- you feel so good about yourself when you can finally do a whole minute that isnt beginner. Today, i noticed my waistline in my shadow. I got curves again- I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS! I have been taking it at my own limits, doing modified versions of exercises, and lovin every minute- welcome to the last workout and diet you will ever have to try honey. Barry and Cindy got it going on!

  I hate going to the gym, and working out. I could never get motivated on my own - so I didn't do it anymore. I saw Barry's Bootcamp infomercial and bought the DVD system with low expectations. (I've bought other at home workouts and couldn't get into them, but this looked...fun?) Barry's kinda goofball/meets the Energizer Bunny, but within minutes of my 1st workout I was sweating like a pig, and my arms were sore the next day. I like the intense 1 minute exercises, the workout calendar that tells me what to do each day, the fact that I was able to start off gradually and add more each week. It's my 4th week and I've added another rubber band to the handles. Love that!
  
  I like the Barry's Bootcamp website where you can figure out a food plan, ask Barry questions (and he answers), and get support from other peeps on the Bootcamp community board.
  
  But here's the real reason I like this program: My pants are falling down `cause I lost 2" off my waist! I'm 40 and I have my 30 year old energy levels back. I'm not stopping `til I get abs! And they're coming!
  
  People are complaining that the Transformer is smaller than on the DVD. I inflated mine, gave it a day to relax/stretch, and then blew it up a lot bigger. It's easy with the foot pump provided.
  
  

• Barry's Bootcamp Melts Fat Away Fast! I reached my goal!

  
  By A1Y0AHWAETW0UN on 2008-09-17
  I had been eating healthy and working out hard, six days a week, at the gym when I saw Barry's Bootcamp on TV. I had lost weight and gained muscle but hit a plateau that had lasted three weeks. I needed to lose just under 20 more pounds and I was stuck and unhappy. I ordered BBC right away. In a nut shell these workouts will melt fat and sculpt your body and you should see results after the first week! After 30 days you'll be thrilled. All you have to do is follow the plan. Do the workouts and eat right. No going hungry, you'll eat small meals about every three hours. Barry's booklet that comes with BBC will help you, telling you what types of food to eat and when to eat it. The workouts are great, you'll sweat, you should be sore at first (it's a good sore) but it's fun and when you see results it makes you want to do it more! After just a few DAYS I couldn't fit into my shorts any more! Inches and pounds were melting away and I saw muscles I didn't know I had! They gym didn't do anything for my abs. I have had seven kids (3 + 2 sets of twins) and I had a lot of belly to lose. Belly is gone and the muscles look great! My "saddle bags" are gone from my thighs too. For the first time since I was a kid, I have a butt with a normal (sexy) shape/size! I am in better shape than before I had my kids. Barry's Bootcamp really sculpts your body. And girls, your muscles will not be bulky! At the gym my arms, butt and legs were bulky. I didn't like that. There is also a great website with lots of great support! Oh, by the way, the transformer ball is huge. You just have to keep pumping it up. I reached my goal fast, I lost more weight/inches than I thought I could, and I still do Barry's Bootcamp five nights a week. I love it and will do it forever! There are other DVD's you can order in the future, after your 30 days, so you can mix it up. They are all amazing!
  
  

• Barry's Boot Camp

  
  By A1UXLNQXSDWTXW on 2008-09-12
  I'm a group fitness instructor and an avid runner so I workout a lot!!! I thought this video was just OK. I love the overall concept of 1 minute intervals and I do sweat quite a bit when I do these videos (which is the bottom line), but not all of the exercises are appropraite for the general population. I.E. Tricep dips using the ball - one could really hurt themselves and sprain a wrist doing this move.....and I love athletic conditioning and have been know to do some crazy plyo exercises on mine own. The music is only OK and Barry is annoying. I hate when instructors don't DO what they are teaching. He just walks around and tries to be funny and motivational - which he's really not. The best part of the videos is his blonde side kick that does most of the actual instructing. Overall, for the price, I think there are better DVD workouts available.
  
  

• These Workouts are the BEST!!!!

  
  By A1EM9BMBN3KLLM on 2008-09-16
  I have recently finished my first 30-days and I feel great. I do believe I get a better fat-burning workout from the videos than I ever could have at the gym. I initially ordered the basic system but I am ordering the complete set of bands from the Barry's Bootcamp site because I am ready to move up from the green band. But in one word it is convenience, because there have been times I have had to change when I workout and how long I workout. I just think this program and DVD's are awesome. Thank you Barry!
  
  
• Barry's Bootcamp Fat Blaster
  By A1DK55JTB4RMO7 on 2008-10-08
  For reference I am low advanced, used the black power bands, and followed the advanced modifier when I could. I absolutely LOVE this set. It is challenging and fun w/ NO dread factor. I have lost 4 lbs in 4 weeks with it and just started my 5th week.
  
  Cindy Whitmarsh actually leads the workouts. I think she is a good lead-not too overzealous, not too serious. Barry walks around and says things like "great abs arent made in the gym, theyre made in the kitchen so be sure to eat right too" and pushes down on exercisers shoulders for added resistance. He is quirky and I liked him too. They show a beginner and an advanced modifier with Cindy doing intermediate. There is a countdown banner on the bottom of the screen that counts down each minute. I find it less intrusive than the banner on the SS w/o's. A buzzer goes off at the 10 seconds remaining mark and Cindy, Barry & crew countdown. The music is good IMO, upbeat, not annoying or too loud.
  
  The kit comes with 3 dvds. There is a lower body dvd, upper body dvd, and a code red (get fit quick in 6 days) dvd. The upper and lower body dvds each have a 21 minute w/o and 6 additional Mission Specialist w/o's on them. The MS w/o's are 12 min each and are: upper body-beginner, lowerbody-beginner, abs-beginner, upper body-advanced, lower body-advanced, and abs-advanced. The kit also comes w/ resistance cord handles and 2 strengths of interchangable resistance bands. The green band is level 1 (beginner strength) and the black is level 3 of 4. It also comes w/ a torpedo shaped ball, the Transformer. The transformer ball is used as a weight bench, stability ball, and a prop for cardio & strength moves. The resistance bands can go around the ball while you are laying on it-so you can do bench press for example.
  
  Lower Body Fat Blaster: it is 21 minutes plus a short warmup. The moves are bootcamp type moves and each exercise lasts for only one minute, alternating between strength and cardio moves. The moves included crabwalks w/ the band, mountain climbers, squats & lunges w/ and w/out the band, one legged hops, etc. It was tough! Because each exercise only lasts 1 minute it is very doable-but still tough. In between exercises you have 30 seconds to "rest" which is used to put down your band, get your ball, etc and introduce the next move. I kept my feet moving during the 30 seconds. My HR really stayed up the entire workout.
  
  Upper Body Fat Blaster: The workout is 21 minutes plus a short warmup. There is a beginner and advanced modifier throughout. Each exercise is one minute with a 30 second "rest" inbetween that is used to set up the next move and get your ball or cord ready. She alternates strength and cardio moves. Some of the exercises include pec flys on the transformer ball using the cords, blow-outs (including a hop at the end-TOUGH!), fast run then down to a Mt. Climber on Barry's cue, upper cuts using the cords, jumping jacks pushing the transformer ball back and forth, tricep dips off the ball (TOUGH), etc. My only complaint is that the bands seemed too long when wrapped around the ball-too much slack to make the moves challenging. I ended up switching to dumbbells for those moves. You can use 2 bands in the handles at once, which would make it tougher but that seemed like a lot of extra work.
  
  Mission Specialist Lower Body (Beginner): 1 minute segments, each one focused on the lower body. The exercises had a cardio effect but
  were all toning exercises. It uses the bands and the ball. Some of the moves were done on the floor and some standing. The exercises were different than in the main lower body w/o. Both a beginner and an advanced option wereshown.
  
  Mission Specialist Upper Body (Beginner): All strength moves in one minute increments. There are 8 exercises, most using the ball and/or the tubing. The moves were different than in the main UB w/o and included push-ups off the ball, tricep extensions w/ the cord, bicep curls w/ the cord, etc.
  
  Mission Specialist Abs (Beginner): Ab work done in 1 minute increments. Used the ball and the bands in some of the exercises. Most were done on the floor or ball. Both a beginner and an advanced option were shown.
  
  Mission Specialist Abs (Advanced): Ab work done in 1 minute increments. This was mostly floor work on and off the ball, included Russion twists, jack knives on the ball, bicycle abs w/ the ball, V-sits w/ the ball, etc.
  
  
• The last workout you will ever do/buy!
  By A2DFQEA3WEJKEB on 2008-09-19
  I started Barry's BootCamp on August 1st, and as of today I am down 14 pounds! Barry is always there to help you if you have any questions along the way! I have tried a lot of different things, and yes they took the weight off, but nothing that has ever been life changing and transformed my body like BootCamp.
  
  If you don't think you can do it just try it for the first 6 days. After that you will see a change and then try it for another 6 days! NO MATTER HOW HARD IT MAY BE STICK WITH IT! After no time at all you will wake up wanting to do this workout everyday!
  
  Now I'm sure you are all reading this and saying, "Well you are young and have energy!" NOPE! I was the laziest person alive. I would eat like crazy fried food, sugar, salt. And after I did my 30 days of BootCamp, with a GOOD diet, I felt like I could take on the world! The other day I was telling a friend I want to take up kickboxing! She didn't even know who she was talking to! Today I spend less time in front of the TV and more time working out.
  
  Barry has even helped me quit smoking! Okay well I haven't quit 100% yet but I'm VERY VERY close! And it's all thanks to Barry Jay.
  
  And no I don't work for the company, and no, no one paid me to say this, no I'm not a "plant", and yes I'm a really person who use to have no self-esteem because of the way I looked.
  
  BUY IT! It will change your life! If it doesn't you have nothing to lose cause they will give you your money back. GET OFF THE COUCH AND START CHANGING YOUR LIFE!!!!! NOW!!!!!!!
  
  
  
• Love It!!!!
  By A2GVJWK8H12EEJ on 2008-10-18
  This is an awesome workout. Really. I burn and hurt when I'm done, but I feel so pumped the next day. And I am NOT an avid exerciser. I don't think I've EVER exercised this hard.
  
  I've already lost two inches off my waist, after only three weeks of dieting (trying to hover between 1250 and 1450 calories a day - but usually end up closer to 1650 - *sigh...) and Barry's Boot Camp. And usually I find myself "hangin' with Kat" because my knees and ankles just can't handle some of the jumping exercises. But still. I'm losin'. Sweatin' out the bad stuff, building my strength, and increasing my energy.
  
  The reason I'm giving four stars, however, is because I bought this program directly through Barry's Bootcamp hotline. They delivered it to the wrong address, their customer service was awful, they insisted that they delivered it to my address, when they obviously did not. Eventually, after I contacted UPS on my own, I discovered that they'd delivered it across the street to my neighbor, and I just went over there and got it myself. I was also mad, because they had to "do an investigation" before they would send out a replacement, and I'd already spent about $76 to get them to expedite the program, and then discovered that I could have saved $20 and gotten it here on Amazon, and I know they would have delivered it to the right address!!
  
  Buy here. Be careful about buying directly from Barry's site if you do.. And stick with it when you get it!! It's hard, yes. OMG it is so hard. But it is so worth it. You discover muscles you didn't even know you had! It's wonderful.
  
  "Work THROUGH to burn, not TO the burn!"

• Beware of Hidden Charges When Ordering Barry's Bootcamp
  By A285GYR8HI3R1C on 2008-10-16
  I was given a 15 day free trial, then charged $29.95 for three months of internet support that I had no idea I signed up for by ordering through the Barry's Bootcamp website. Be careful that the same thing doesn't happen to you. I have to dispute it with my credit card company because Barry's Bootcamp would only give me a partial refund for October and November. They made me pay for $9.95 for September when I didn't even know I had it. There was nothing on my packing slip to say I would be charged.
  
  
• A Great Workout!
  By A3JPUOWUW6NR4J on 2008-09-16
  This is by far the best DVD workout I have ever used. It's tough, but the whole concept of 60 second exercises really works. I've had the system for almost 2 months now and I've lost 4 inches off my waist and just over 20 pounds.
  
  Barry is entertaining to watch and the variety of workouts keeps things from getting boring. I've always had a gym membership, but I never pushed myself as hard as these workouts do.
  
  5 Stars +++++
  
  
  
• 200 lb+- Overweight person is actually able to do this one!
  By ASRLIDS6Y5E9O on 2008-10-16
  the thing I hate about trying excercising videos/clubs, is that you NEVER know if a plus sized person can do the workouts. Some are VERY hard for just starting out! Now, I know showing a size 18 doing the workouts does not sell products, and obviously they are saying since they are doing the workouts, they are in shape! But when you are Big (and I am tall too!) you can't always do the excercises effectivly. You almost feel like FORGET IT! Because they make it for people that seem to be in somewhat good shape. But if this is you, like it is me, you can do this. And even though everyone says the transformer is smaller than on the video, I am 6 ft tall, and it works just fine. (althought I agree the tricep dips are too hard, so I used a chair) The key is to do the modified version. I was over 200 lbs and felt frustrated that I couldn't do it normally. But I tried to keep in mind it took me 3 years to put on the weight, it's gonna take time to take it off.I feel great every morning now, and want to get out and do something instead of staying in the house drinking coffee all day. I am pretty sore after the excercises, but it's a good sore! Barry is annoying at times, but he does distract you from the fact you are sweating and working hard. I only have one negative comment, which has been said before...I got my product off of Amazon.com-which was great!-but I didn't get the password for the VIP section of his website. Which is dissapointing!! I tried emailing them twice, but still no reponse from them! SO...other than that, I would recommend this product to ANYONE of any shape or size, and tell them, to start off slow. You will get better, and you will be able to progress to the next level, and you will start losing weight! I can't wait to type you back when I have reached to advanced version!
  
  
• Transformer different
  By A3LX8X80V3EHBI on 2008-09-10
  The transformer ball is smaller than the video and pictures show; it is also smaller than the enclosed instruction manual says it should be. But, being that I am a beginner, it seems to work OK for now.
  The DVDs definitely provide a good workout! I am sore!
  
  
• Lost 11 pounds the 1st month, 49 more to go. Watch my progress
  By A2Q7CB3YEKE3AQ on 2008-09-17
  Hey, we've all tried to lose weight. What I like about this program is that I can login and share my results with other users of the system. I have spent quite a bit of time making a web page on their site to share my information. You can read the page detailing my progress, goals, food plan and more under my user name of Stronglkbull ([...]).
  
  I have lost 11 pounds in the first month, and plan to lose another 30 by mid December. I hope to finish up with losing 60 pounds total by mid February 2009. The forum stuff costs a little more but it's well worth it to me since any words of encouragment from others is really helpful to stay on track. If you get the system, feel free to add me as a friend on the forum right off the bat.
  
  The store on Barrysbootcamp.com might be better if you want to get some of the other stuff at a discount in your first order. Also, get clarification about what is in your package ordering from here before you order by comparing it to [...] website. From reading another review, it sounds like the Amazon description isn't correct and the package is for the basic system like in the infomercial. So, just see what's in the basic package on [...] before you try to save a little money here.
  
  Someone else mentioned that their workout transformer is small. A couple other people on the bootcamp forums have have other issues as well. Most likely they will replace it for you. My Transformer is just fine.
  
  As for doing the dips on the Transformer, I don't even do those yet on the Transformer since I'm not that far along yet. Take it easy when you use this system and start slow. There are three different people you can keep pace with in the videos and if I recall the beginner person for people starting really out of shape like me doesn't even use the Transformer for the more difficult stuff.
  
  As with any video, pretty soon you will have most of the routines memorized, so I have already turned down the audio and just follow along while listening to audio books and my music. I'll probably turn on the audio from time to time just to remind me of the details.
  
  
• It makes you sweat! - Take it slow if you are a beginner
  By A6Y4BKCKFMACS on 2008-10-22
  OK - the first day I tried these workouts I thought I was going to die. To be fair I haven't been to the Gym in 2 years due to a car accident and the endless carpool of getting my kids to all their events. If anyone thinks that 60 seconds is going to be easy doing 1 exercise it wasn't for me. My Muscles were shaking at the end.
  
  I'm in week three now and after skipping a few days here and there I feel things are actually turning around and I have the strength to finish the routines. I've only lost a few pounds - but I'm not giving up.
  
  The workouts are quick and Barry keeps it entertaining. Love Cindy too!
  
  I do wish there were an easier way to get in shape :-)
  
  
• A little decieving
  By A3IOC1SFBXFCEW on 2008-09-05
  I was excited to get this in the mail until I opened the box. Everything was in there but the transformer is alot smaller then what is shown in the picture and on the video.
  I did the first workout and burned alot of calories but unsure how effective it is because the next day I was not sore. Hopefully it does work. I will see if there are any results in a week or two.
  
  
• Fun and Fat Burning!
  By A2FD4KEIIHPCJY on 2008-09-16
  I travel a lot for work, and am usually skeptical of "at home" workouts, but thought I would give Barry's a try as I have read so much about his classes in gossip rags and have always wanted to try his classes. The transformer and band are easily packed for travel and the one minute workouts are what I love most! Barry is funny and motivating. Overall, I would recommend this workout to both beginners and pros alike!!!!!
  
  
• Best Workout I've ever experienced!!!
  By A1FEYXI4062VA on 2008-09-17
  I bought this workout system only five months ago but I've already seen incredible results. I'm forty years old but I'm close to my weight in college. I thank Barry's system to my current results. I've done everything in the past like spinning, straight jogging and gym memberships but nothing has worked like these videos. It's not just my weight loss but I see muscle definition! I love how I look in jeans and tank tops. It's a hard workout but so worth it.
  
  
• Works, if you don't have knee problems
  By A34KRWS3QURK8P on 2008-10-15
  I bought the BB Complete Workout System plus additional videos. Yes, the workouts will make you sweat but BE VERY CAREFUL if you have knee problems. After the first workout, I was side-lined for 4 weeks. My right knee gave out, very painful. I contacted BB's website and "he" suggested I take vitamin supplements for joints and then mysteriously my blog disappeared from the website. There's alot of jumping for the cardio portions. If you decide to get this set and have even slight knee problems (maybe from lots of prior step aerobics and squats!)use the modified version of the jumping exercises. Otherwise this workout does work for weightloss and endurance.
  
  
• Love the workout - Hate the customer service...
  By A17MTVIMUAQBP8 on 2008-09-29
  Okay, LOVE the workout and WILL use it frequently... problem is that if you have a defective band (like me) apparently you have to return THE ENTIRE ORDER and then RE-ORDER!?! The reason I keep getting (which makes NO sense to me!) is that the "... inventory is constantly changing..." (so? LOL) Anyway, check your bands thoroughly BEFORE YOU BOTHER blowing up your transformer, etc. Oh, and speaking of the transformer.... I keep seeing problems that its way smaller than in the video/on the informercial.... in the booklet it says to blow it up so that its 67" in circumference and 22" tall.... IMPOSSIBLE to do! I just went by the circumference alone and am hoping this is just a typo (and my transformer doesn't blow up!!!!) Good luck!
  
  
• great workout + delicious meal plan = RESULTS
  By A1CYNV1BTB4TAY on 2008-10-27
  I was looking for something I could do at home so I could cancel my gym membership that I NEVER used! I got Barry's and loved it. I noticed difference in first week and can seriously do while I brew my coffee in the mornings. Not to mention, it cost less than a month's gym membership. The other thing I liked was the 15-day free membership to Dr. Gourmet. I am foody...I love to eat & cook, so changing what I ate didn't thrill me. But this site is deliciously wonderful! It provides helpful menu planning to incorporate foods that I already ate, but gave alternative more healthful recipe options that weren't "diety" or bland. I liked so much that I've actually paid for the full time membership.
  
  
• Great workout!!
  By A2PVO8Y7F466FA on 2008-10-22
  Barry's Boot Camp is great. Talk about making you sweat off the pounds...very very very good workout. There are 3 different people you can follow: beginner, medium level & a expert. For some of the exercises I had to follow the beginner for the first 2 weeks, but now i am up to the medium level workouts. If you actually follow Barry's advice, you will lose weight. It is a great way to start my day...sweating hard. I also signed up for the 15day trial on [...] and decided to continue with the VIP service....I find it to be very helpful. I would recommend this product & the VIP service to everyone.
  
  
• Not for everyone.
  By A1G3XYBAXJB9SQ on 2008-11-01
  I bought this system because it was a 20 minute workout, and that is about the amount of time I can commit to regularly for an excercise plan. No doubt about it , it is a work out! You really work up a sweat in a short period of time, which was great. Unfortunately, it requires a lot of jumping that I found to be tough on my knees and joints. Amazon was great about returning it, no problem, no hassle.
  
  
• Couldn't believe it....
  By A1MBFIPAVRP7ES on 2008-11-13
  If you're thinking about getting this workout system, DO IT! If you are going to commit to it and do what they say and do the workout everyday as suggested bottom line is you will see results. I must confess though that i have not followed the eating plan but i have been trying to keep my calorie intake below 1,200 calories per day. I have been doing this workout for about a month now, the scale didn't move much, but i have lost 12.5 inches all around. That may not seem like much but just about everybody i know have noticed and it feels GREAT! Now THIS is what i'm sticking to!
  
  
• Yes, It's work!
  By A3IM2JACR52C9L on 2008-10-03
  This is an excellent product for it's brevity and portability. It only takes 21 minutes and gives cardio and strength both. If you're looking for easy, forget it! I am overweight, and my husband is in pretty good shape. We can BOTH USE IT and have improvement in srength and fitness. He works up a substantial sweat, and is breathing hard by the time he's finished. I am inclined to pause the video and take it at a slower pace.
  
  I like that we can take this on vacation (where we usually gain a few pounds) and pop it in the DVD player and keep the routine up with a minimum time commitment - then off to play and have fun.
  
  One thing I don't like is that the "beginner" person is not put into the frame until later in the exercise. Several seconds and a couple of reps have passed before you see the modification for beginners. After watching a few times you can catch on, but watch the tape through at least once if you need to do the beginner modifications or you'll be frustrated.
  
  
• You will Sweat!!
  By A2Z4BZDS2ALZSM on 2008-10-06
  A great workout. You get what you give. What this program does is make it easier to give it your all for each excercise by limiting each one for 1 min.
  
  
• just love it!
  By AHYW65LO7394W on 2008-10-24
  i've been looking for a private way to start my weight control and simply enjoy it. it's wonderful that it has beginner/intermediate/advance levels built right in - majority of other exercise videos i've found don't have that feature. i've been using it daily for almost a month now and am beginning to see results in endurance and strength. i hate doing repetitive exercises so the short intervals and varieties in this video is perfect. i can't wait to do it everyday - if i could, i would do this 4-5 times a day!
  
  
• BETTER THAN GOING TO THE GYM!!!
  By A3V7I0H5MH33IU on 2008-11-06
  I first saw Barry on TV a few weeks ago and he instantly grabbed my attention! With gym memberships becoming more and more of a luxury with how the economy is right now, I was in the market for a product that could keep me in great shape at home. I normally don't order many homee fitness products, but I figured I would give it a shot. After receiving his workout kit, I immediately cancelled my gym membership as this is a WAY better value. His workout is intense and you can feel the burn right away. It is actually pretty intense so take it easy if you are a beginner. Also, I decided to extend the 15-day Bootcamp trial to take full advantage of everything that Barry has to offer. I recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a great way to get in shape fast in the comfort of your home!!!
  
  
• This Is The Real Deal!
  By AURA80DZLJNT4 on 2008-11-12
  Living in Los Angeles, I had heard about Barry's Bootcamp fitness studio in West Hollywood. I was tired of my own mundane workout with little to no results so I decided to give Barry Jay's class a try. When I arrived I saw people from the previous class soaked in sweat. I knew I was in store for a rigorous workout. I was not disappointed. I had never sweated so much in my life! It was the best workout I had ever had. During my class, I also saw a few big time Hollywood stars. I signed up for additional classes and started to loose weight and inches all in the right spots. I also gained strength! Then I started traveling for work. What to do?
  
  I bought Barry's Bootcamp and continued my workouts in my home and on the road during my business trips. Same challenging workouts! Great cardio and strength training with the same end results...lots of sweat. The pill ball takes less than 5 minutes to blow up with the foot pump and easily supports my 6'+ frame. The handles make it easy to increase/decrease the resistance with resistant tubes. I was able to maintain my weight(actually lose a few more lbs.!)and my strength. Believe all the hype...Barry's Bootcamp works!

• Best at-home Workout EVER!!
  By A5B3NY9KYX8D9 on 2008-11-18
  Barry's Boot Camp is absolutely AMAZING!! It is the best at-home workout I have ever tried! Not to mention it saves you a lot of time!! I am a graduate student, so I don't have much free time, but these workouts easily fit into my hectic schedule. My arms got toned, and I lost inches off my waist and my thighs in just under 2 months!! I started seeing results in about 2 weeks. To top it all...ITS FUN!!! I RECOMMEND THIS WORKOUT FOR ALL FITNESS LEVELS!!! I LOVE IT!!!!
