Timesaver / terminator

[debra123]

Good Morning everyone,

For those of you who have timesaver and the terminator dvd, which do you use most and what is your favorite. I have all the body blast dvd's except supersets and all the intensity dvd's except the terminator. I am looking for some shorter work outs with intensity. I do have the ctx dvd and love love it, I think everyone of those work outs are awesome!!!.

If any of you could give me your opinion or some advice I would appreciate it. I am sure the terminator is more intense than timesaver, but I am going to wait for those of you that have them before I decide.

Thank you so much everyone

i think the timesaver is a good option when you have had a busy and tired day of work, short but intense. I do not use the timesaver to much because I prefer to use the dvd of the BB with the premixes. The terminator dvd is harder and longer(60,78 and 80 minutes I think).

IMHO you have to make a choice between intensity and duration if you are debating Timesaver vs. Terminator. Timesaver indeed saves time, but IMHO the workouts are less intense; Terminator workouts are longer duration but higher intensity because they incorporate I-Max 2 and Boot Camp (Gauntlet). Note that you can always hit the "stop" button prior to the end of the workout. Also, the Terminator workouts are circuit-style whereas Timesaver is cardio then resistance.

I tend to value high intensity so if I were making the choice you are making I'd go with Terminator.

Just my $.02 -

Thanks to both of you. I guess I need to just maybe use some of the premixes on the BB series and intensity series. I do like a good 60 minutes before work and also do 15 to 20 minutes of pilates too. I think I will try that when I am short on time. I usually do get 1 hour 15 minutes each weekday, but there have been times when I have to be to work real early. I get up at 4:a.m. and has been working great for years now. I had no idea the terminator work outs were that long.

I appreciate your help thanks and have a wonderful day.

I love terminator more than timesaver.I did the gaunlet the saturday morning of the past weekend and hoooow it is so awesome. I have the timesaver but when I start to do SB, SJP or KPC I have to finish the workout because I do not feel the weariness doing this workouts and they are so much fun and what to say about the music, it is fantastic and very motivaiting. I do not really need the timesaver. Have fun.
