This is what Bust & Butt should have been. An intense muscle strengthening and shpaing working. The workout has already been broken down so I'll just add my comments because I hope if becomes a VF Favorite at least. Super Sculpting has the same cast with all lead instructors in the background so it really feels like one workout instead a compilation of several tapes, which the Blast Set obviously is. There's time for equipment changes so pausing that VCR isn't really necessary. In various takes, Nancy and Carissa are using water bottles and laundry detergent jugs as weight substitutes. Look carefully and you can also see a broom, and paperback books (substituting for 2X4s.) I know "20 questions about Fitness says don't be fooled by this. The Benson Sister's may have considered that it takes several props to do a Firm video. Complain if you want, but if you want workout results at home, use the FIRM. If anyone is trying to decide between buying the Blast Set (CC1, CC2, Bust & Butt) and Super Shapers, get Super Shapers for a better workout and save some money.

Instructor Comments:
Nancy Tucker was a co-instructor in Tri-Trainers Fat Blaster. She has a really toned body and had a d=heavier Southern accent in Fat Blaster. She leads the curtsy dips and cros lunges, a Steel Magnolia with a softer accent this time. Watch her if you want to see good from. Carissa seems much more experienced in this series. She leads a set of squats with legwork using ankle weights. Dale is very athletic and much warmer in Super Shapers. (If and when Power Cardio comes out, I'll but it.) Last and definately not least, Jen Carman owns this workout. She's so high-energy and that broad smile doesn't look pasted on. She leads a large portion of the segments...she could lead the whole tape and you wouldn't be bored.
