The Firm workout DVD's?

[kaysmommie]

Have any of you tried the Firm workouts? If so did you see results? I ordered them out of desperation before the Holidays and they have not come yet . Can't wait to try them though. Thanks in advance.

I've tried the Firm and would do it between babies . I've had the tapes for a while probably 6 years and I liked them. But I haven't done them in about 1 1/2 years. I am so out of shape and have thought once my back feels better I'll try it again. For me the lower body part was the most difficult. I haven't seen the newer version of the firm. My version uses a double step a lot. Good luck.

I've had the Firm for a few years and use it on and off. I absolutely love these workouts. I love the combo of cardio and strength training. I will warn you though, they are not the easiest workouts, but they are so worth it. When I first started I would get lost on some of the cardio steps and I would get worn out. Don't worry if that happens to you. Just march in place or do something to keep the heart rate going. When I felt I absolutely couldn't do anymore I would skip ahead to the cool down. On the good side I was surprised that it didn't take long before I was able to do the entire workout and I finally got the hang of the steps on the cardio portions. So, when you get them start slow and work your way up (some of that will depend on if you are doing any exercise now). Don't give up and you will see results and will love the workouts.

Thanks for the post - talking about them has made me want to do them again. Why do we so quickly give up on things even when we like them, like the results, and know its good for us? I am such a yo-yo exerciser!

Thaks for the reply. I'm more of a yo yo dieter but I I do exercise a few times a week. Glad to hear it will be challenging though. Still waiting for the p[ackage to arrive.

I lost nearly 40 lbs doing the FIRM videos and even though i stopped doing them what came off has stayed off mostly. They are hard work but well worth it.

Where did you order from? I only order my videos from Collage and always get them within 4 days of ordering. They have tons of videos as well as a great selection FIRM sets.

I finally got them this afternoon. I will have to start using them tommorow. Hope they help me lose this 20 post baby pounds.

I love the Firm tapes! I have like - 15 VHS tapes and 6 DVDs. I'm a creacher of habit...

I used them 10-12 years ago after my second baby. You will lose inches soooo fast! You will feel stronger and sexier! I still get my VHS tapes AND my CDs out. I love my VHS/oldie work outs. I know them, I know they work and it's like working out with an old friend.

They work.... the lost inches will make you very happy!

I still love my Janet Jones tape
And I love using the step. You are making me get my step out of my bathroom, my daughter uses it to brush her teeth. I think I will start again tomorrow...probably with my 15 year old Janet Jones tape
