I was shocked and excited to find the Beachbody package waiting by my front door when I got home from work. I've done part of 3T: Totally Tubular Turbo (added some parts on to CTX Upper Body) and I did Cardio Party 3 this morning.

I posted a review of 3T over at VF. Here's the link:

While I plan on writing a formal review of Cardio Party 3 later on, I have to say that I really liked this workout A LOT!! I found the moves and music to be terrific and to compliment one another somehow. There are more punches (which I like, because I do them well) to kicks (which I like, because I don't do them very well). I was also sweating buckets! This workout can be intense if you really put your all into it. I didn't use the weighted gloves that came with the kit as I have very small hands and they don't fit all that comfortably (kind of loose).

Those of you who like Turbo Jam will probably love this set as well. If you were luke warm or didn't like Turbo Jam, it may or may not be your cup of tea.
 
Sabine, do you have the original set of Turbo Jams, too? (I didn't read your VF review yet, sorry if that's a repeat question.) How does this set compare? Which are the most fun? I ask because one reads such widely varying reviews on these. I really don't want to spend $60 and also hassle with Beach Body (ugh! bad experience the first time around) if I won't like them at all. I do love to dance...

ETA: Sabine, I just read your review over on VF. Very thorough, thanks! I am still curious as to which of the TJs are worth purchasing... from this set or the original.

I have almost all the cardio workouts from the first set and Lower Body Jam and Ab Jam. I skipped Cardio Party Remix as a)it was pretty short at 30 minutes, and b) had some recycled footage in it. I personally love the both of Cardio Parties from the first set. The 20 minute workout is great when you're short on time. Lower Body Jam is a pretty good lower body workout using a latex band. I use a Spri circle and actually think that works better than what Chalene uses. I say pretty good for this one because it's no near as intense as a Cathe lower body tape. For me, though, it has its place. I like to combine this workout with Ab Jam, which I really like. The standing ab work is really fresh and works the abs in a totally different way than most of the stuff I have.

I would suggest trying one of the cardio workouts first. In the new set that was just released, you get 3 cardio workouts and one toning workout. If you check VF and Yaya's, you can see posts of discount codes which bring down the price of the workouts. Dealing with BB is always an adventure, and this order went off without a hitch.

HTH!
