Movie Reviews of The Firm: Dangerous Curves Ahead

Movie Review: Great Calorie Burn!
Summary: 5 Stars

I buy everything The Firm puts out, and for the longest time, I couldn't imagine a Firm workout without thinking of "three sets of dumbbells, light, medium, and heavy" and some kind of step. Dangerous Curves Ahead is a departure from this formula. The aerobic work is all done on the floor, and you use just one pair of light-ish dumbbells, plus the "resistance loop." (The exercisers in this workout use The Firm's Cardio Weights, so if you already have these, you can choose how heavy you make your weights. If not, you can use dumbbells you already own. I use 5 pounds for this workout.)

I was surprised at how effective this workout is. I exercise 5-7 days a week, an hour at a time. The footwork is fairly easy to pick up, especially if you're kind of used to Alison Davis' choreography. There are a couple spots during the full workout where the cueing is a little off, but once you do the workout a few times, you'll know it well enough to know what's coming up. The work you'll do with your dumbbells is fairly predictable and mostly 4-limb. There's some good focus on triceps in this one. The Resistance Loop must be a little more intense than the one Alison and Company use, because I've been at exercising for a while, and I found myself following Emily's "beginner" modification during the side-plank series. But if the Resistance Loop is a little too tight for you to begin with, you could probably make your own by looping a Dyna Band so you'd have more stretch, then work your way up to the Resistance Loop that comes with this workout.

What I particularly like about Dangerous Curves Ahead is that you're able to tailor this workout to the length of workout you have time for and to the kind of workout you want to do on a given day: cardio, sculpt/tone, or the whole 55-minute workout. It isn't really geared for beginners, but it's definitely something you can modify (don't use the band or dumbbells, make the cardio moves less intense), and grow into.
