Our own Marisa is on set in California as Billy tapes the latest Tae Bo workout DVDs. She wrote this post Tuesday night.

Day two of filming is in the bag! We just finished an exciting, albeit exhausting day of filming three new videos! Whew! It’s 8:30 p.m. now, and I have to be back on set at 8 a.m., which means a 6 a.m. wakeup. We wrapped today at 7 p.m., a long 11-hour day. But, let me tell you — this batch of videos was fantastic! I got a great vantage point on the first two videos as I watched the team work from behind the cameras. Then, I got to participate in the final video of the day — a target training workout that focuses on body segments in timed increments. What an amazing, challenging workout — you are going to love this one —it’s unlike anything we have EVER done before! Billy, Shellie, Julieann and the rest of the team are just on fire this week. We are now over half way done.

I have really loved the other systems in the past, Amped, BootCamp, BootCamp Elite, Capture the Power, but I must say that this is by far my favorite system. Billy is bringing so many fresh, exciting things to the world of Tae Bo that I just can’t wait to see what else is in store for us.

Two videos are on Wednesday’s docket with two more scheduled for Thursday. What an awesome week. There are so many different people of all ages, sizes and ethnicities in these videos. It’s just so wonderful to see everyone coming together. What I love best is that each and every one of you will find someone in those videos that you can identify with — someone that encourages you and motivates you to keep on pushing through that next set — 8 more seconds! Hey, you can do anything for 8 seconds. So, get excited, get powered up — everybody SUMO CHARGE!!!!!!
