Guest guest Posted December 13, 2000 Report Share Posted December 13, 2000 >When I do the videos at home, I mirror him. ~ Great minds must think alike. Just this morning as I was doing the Advanced, I was thinking the exact same thing!! I was thinking I'd probably have a hard time catching on at the WTC because I always start out on the opposite side as the one does when I work out a home!! LOL I'll have to give your suggestion a try and start it out on the opposite side! Jen Who is very glad 's got a working VCR again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 14, 2000 Report Share Posted December 14, 2000 Whoooooooooo Hooooooooo !!!!! I've always done the tapes so I'm doing whatever side he says. It tripped me up at the tapings last year (as you can see in BL10). I was so use to doing opposite of what was on the TV, that my brain was automatically thinking that. There are some exceptions, like the combo at the beginning of " Stomp " in BL7 and the leg lift thingie in AL6 and floor work.

Guest guest Posted December 15, 2000 Report Share Posted December 15, 2000 That was the hardest part for me when I started TaeBo. The aerobic tapes I've done in the past and at gyms, all have you " mimic " them. When they say left, you are doing your left, but they are doing the right. So when I put the first Taebo tape in, I felt completely uncoordinated.

I had the same problem when I started Tae Bo. Now that I've finally gotten and his methods all figured out and ingrained in my brain, every time I do a step tape I end up tripping over my own two feets because I'm doing everything backwards!! :-) LOL Well, as long as I'm moving, huh? :-) LOL Jen Who really is going to go Tae Bo when she's done reading these! ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
