The Hare is one of the last Firm tapes that I have bought. I loved the Tortoise, except for the ballroom aerobics, and I think Tracie Long is a very good instructor with the best body of all Firm instructors. I think the Hare is a good tape to do the day after a very hard workout. The day before I tried it, I did Step Max (Cathe Friedrich), plus Lethal Abs, a Tony Little arm workout, and Standing Legs (just the leg press segments). So the next morning I was happy to do a less strenuous routine and the Hare fit the bill. I love the floor legwork and the ab work is very good even though it is done in two segments. As far as the ballroom routines go, I really dislike them too, but you can improvise and do your own little routine. On the whole, I enjoyed the workout and will do it on a light day. I find it similar to Volume 2 as far as being less strenuous than other tapes and a light workout (I use 5 lb. dumbells for a light workout).
