There’s a buzz about Brazil Butt Lift going through the Beachbody community, and I get questions about it often from my team members. I’ve owned the program myself for about 3 months now, since it first came out, and I even incorporated 2 of the workouts into my Round 2 Hybrid workout.
But I’ve got to say that I DO NOT give BBL a high recommendation. This may be my personal preference, but hey, since many of you value my feedback and the way I shoot you straight, I just want y’all to know that if you are on the fence about getting this program, I say save your money!
I will be the first to admit that P90X and Insanity overlook the toosh as a target area, and that incorporating a workout that targets the butt is a very good idea. That’s why I originally started doing BBL. And the workouts definitely target the butt. However, the things I don’t like about the program outweigh the good:
1) The diet is not sustainable long term. It’s 1200 calories, and it’s all Brazilian foods, which matches their theme, but it’s not practical. Nutrition like the P90X guide is a much more feasible long-term plan.
2) Leandro is a little annoying … okay, A LOT annoying! Want to learn more, just watch a preview of the workout and imagine that going on for nearly an hour!!
3) The intensity level is lower than what I’m comfortable with as a P90X and Insanity regular. The butt definitely burns, but it’s just a little too posh in their studio and on the beach for me to really get intense.
In conclusion, I would recommend that you look at an alternative to BBL if you are looking to add a booty workout to your routine. I particularly recommend 2 of the Tony Horton 1-on-1’s that will serve this purpose: Butt & Belly, and Bun Shaper. The 1-on-1’s only cost $19, so you can get them much cheaper than buying the entire BBL program, and you’ll get a better butt workout in my humble opinion.
I hope this review helps you make the best decision for your butt and your budget!!
