The Firm: Crosstrainers - The Hare

Tracie Long
Year Released: 1995

Categories: Circuit Training (cardio and weights)


I finally bought The Hare a couple weeks ago, previewed it, but had no desire to do it til today. I've been mildly sick for a few days and hadn't exercised in a while, so I thought a light workout might be nice.

There were a few things I really liked about this tape. I usually don't like Firm warm-ups, but this one was really fun and had some likable, non-cheesy music. The music overall was pretty good, and the light weight sections were a nice change of pace. "The Swing" was also notably fun - but all the dances feel too much like "learning a cute dance step" instead of doing a workout.

The workout was perfect for me today, but I can't imagine doing this tape when I feel relatively healthy, unless I combine it with another tape, and then why bother? I may keep this one around if I feel I need a "getting over an illness video," otherwise, expect to find it soon on the Exchange.

Instructor Comments:
Tracie Long is likeable and seems like she's having fun at times. I just wish her hair wasn't pulled back quite so tightly here!
