The Firm: Power Sculpt

Allie Del Rio
Year Released: 2006

Categories: Body Bar , Total Body Workouts


This DVD comes with the 9lb Sculpting Stick (with green foam). The stick can be separated into 3 sections weighing 3lb each, and when all 3 sections are combined it weighs 9lb. The workouts starts with Allie holding the 2 separate ends like 3lb dumbells for upper body work, then she connects all 3 pieces for squats and other lower body work, then she uses 2 pieces (6lb) for floor work: inner and outer thighs and abs. Thus, the workout hits all the muscle groups. The workout is all sculpting, no cardio intervals. The moves flow nicely, nothing awkward, just basic moves. Cueing is good.

It's only a 20 minute workout, so it's for a day when you're short on time, or a light day. It is also nice as an add on. I only wish it were a longer workout, because this was the only workout made with the 9lb stick. I don't really like the older workouts that use the old 8lb stick, so I'm disappointed that they didn't make more "Pink Firms" with this 9lb stick. For the price, I don't think this one short workout would give me my money's worth, but fortunately I can use the stick with other (non-Firm) workouts, and also enjoy Power Sculpt as an add on.

Instructor Comments:
Typical Allie, good cueing, friendly personality, as usual.
