Despite the virtues of this video, it was the one that really emphaiszed to me how cheezy Firm videos are. And the coach shpiel at the end really pissed me off. I haven't checked out reviews of this video yet, but I know someone always breaks down what you do so I'll just list what I like and what I don't. I like: the thorough instruction- can you believe the Firm has instructors who instruct!! great form- easy to follow. the wacky music. The digeridoos make me laugh. It seems somehow more entertaining than the gassy tubas of the original three Firms. great pacing for beginners. The moves are broken down and built upon very gradually. I really enjoyed both of these instructors. jennifer has good energy and vivacity for cardio and Stacy is calm and patient for weight training- a good bland. What I don't like: the video coach- will I really have more friends if I loose weight? the stilted cueing- strike all your props??? the instructors sound canned. more aerobics- for a fat burner, its not very cardio. Overall, good choice for beginners... well produced, and well instructed. I appreciate the emphasis on weights, not tubes (which do have their place) for beginners.

Instructor Comments:
I like both of these instructors. They seem friendly, capable and use good form. Their personalities are very complimentary. Jennifer is very bubbly and Stacy is soft and elegant.
