Movie Reviews of The FIRM: Cardio Overdrive
Movie Review: Good for people who are very overweight to obese
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best workout I've ever had! I rented it from Netflix first to see if I liked it, and I ended up purchasing it right away.
I had been using Barry's Bootcamp for the past couple weeks. It's nice, but with those 30 second breaks every minute, I didn't feel like I was really getting my heart rate up. I think Barry's is fine for those who are in good shape and want to stay that way, but if you have a lot of fat to lose, the FIRM is the way to go. I've used them in the past, and it's like taking a potato peeler to the front of your thighs!
I started out this video with high expectations. The warm-up was kind of fast and I thought maybe I had skipped over it by mistake. But I kept on going. I should mention that I'm well over 200lbs; I had used the TransFIRMation steps in the past but you're not supposed to use them if you're over 250lbs. I did, and I cracked them. I digress. For the othe reviewers who might say that there are missed cues or it's hard to follow... do it again! Sheesh, an exercise video is to be used many times, not just once and complan that it's too difficult. They used music like Salt N Pepa's "Push It" and at times the moves even felt like I was in a cheerleading competition. I love the way you learn a couple moves well and then add on. Very easy to follow and a delight to watch. Sumi is the beginning person and I was happy to see that I could even out-do her -- and she was gettin' down with her bad self! I don't have bad knees so I can't comment on that, but I could do every thing that was put forth to me.
All of a sudden, she says, "it's time to cool down..." Whoa! I look up and over 40 minutes have passed. I was disappointed that I didn't sweat, but when I took off my shirt, it was soaking. Three-quarters of an hour and I didn't realize how hard I was sweating and I didn't realize how much time was flying by. You work your butt off (literally) and you're having so much fun that you don't feel like it's a workout. That makes it the best workout on earth!
