Okay - so this doesn't provide a total body workout. I don't think this detracts from the exercise quality of the video. The Firm needs to re-classify this tape. I use this video along with Upper Body. I believe this tape provides the best of both worlds - standing and floor work. The standing legs section is intense, consisting of squats with free weights and inner/outer thigh toning. During the brief upper body segment, I step using my weights. The floor section is also intense. I especially like the lever lifts and the ab work. The floor work is very similiar to the floor work in Gilad's Best of Bodies in Motion (one of my favorite tapes of all time). I can feel this tape two days after doing it!

LaReine is much more animated than Janet Jones and less annoying than Sandhal Bergman (sp?). She also doesn't look like she's ready to fall out of her leotard. Her cuing isn't perfect, but that's the case with most of the Firm instructors. She doesn't speak in a sexual manner (what a relief!). To date, she is my favorite Firm instructor. (I have done Upper Body and Tough Aerobics).
