The Firm: Calorie Killer

Year Released: 2003

I am on the fence on whether or not I like this workout. I thought it was good in terms of variety but....my heart rate was just way too low. I did what I could to try to get my heart rate higher but still no luck. Now, mind you....I really, really like the workouts from the Firm's 6-pack and although some people complained they were too easy, I was able to really get my heart rate higher by adding higher weights and full range of motion, using higher levels of the fannie lifter, etc. I still think it's a keeper for the fun factor and could be a good add-on to another workout. I like the music in it although I recognized a portion of the music is the same as Minna's Emergency workout and the 7 Day Solution workout.

Instructor Comments:
I've always liked Nancy in all her Firm videos. She is personable and a great instructor. I can only nitpick one cue she missed during this workout that messed me up, otherwise good job.
