No instruction - Rating: 1/5
I found this workout to be very confusing. I am very coordinated, and have been back into exercising for nearly 5 months now so these factors have nothing to do with my review. I bought it with the intention of moving on to a more challenging workout, but what I got was one that was impossible. Kelsie does not explain what she is doing and moves from movement to movement under the assumption that you know what her terminology means. I HATED this dvd and would not recommend it to anyone. I probably won't purchase any firm product at all, I was very disappointed.
Hard Core Workout- Not too dance-y - Rating: 5/5
I love this workout. I am not someone who sweats much and I am dripping by the end of this workout. I am usually sore for 3 days after I use it and I do a firm tape 2-3 times a week. This is the most intense Firm workout I have tried and if you have done the firm you know that is saying something. What I really like is that I can follow the routine. I hate--and I mean hate-- dance-y routines. I just can't follow them. Other than a couple jazz boxes I can follow everything she does without hurting myself or others. Thumbs way up!
Love it! But probably not a great intro to The Firm for beginners - Rating: 4/5
I'm a huge fan of The Firm, and I really enjoy this video. It's extremely demanding, and the moves do require a fairly high amount of coordination, but that makes it more entertaining for me. The Firm puts out a lot of videos, so I appreciate it when they throw in new combinations. Having said that, I would not recommend this for an introduction to The Firm. It helps to be familiar with their other videos, because most of the difficult moves are just variations on things that have shown up before in other workouts.
Love it! - Rating: 5/5
I ordered this video after being hooked to the firm TransFirmer system for a couple of years. I'm a very active person and an avid runner and was looking for something new to challenge me....in my own home. I found it with this video! It sculpts muscles as well as incorporates cardio. The first three to four times I completed the workout I was out of breath as well as feeling what I worked for the next few days. This is a keeper for my fitness DVD library.
The Firm 500 Calorie - Rating: 4/5
Very demanding for a workout! I jumped right into it, but should have stayed at a slower pace. Took a few breaks the first time to drink water, but I am going to try to do it often!!! I really like it!
