firm question

kariev34 · 02-28-11, 11:59 AM

I'm really interested in getting some firm workouts that are AWT. I've looked at their classic workouts but I can't get past how outdated they are. Out of the newer ones, can any of you make some recommendations? I have never done any firm workouts but i'm an intermediate/advanced exerciser.

Of those that use the Fanny Lifter/Tall Step, Cardio Sculpt and Complete Aerobic Weight Training (also uses the "sculpting stick") are AWT.

Hard Core Fusion from the pink firms (Transfirmation series) is also "pure" AWT. The Ultimate Fat Burning Workout is another that is pretty balanced.

The Firm has a number of other workouts which are slanted more to toning or aerobics, but could be counted as both.

Crap, see what happens when I stay home from work sick, I just ordered the new firm express as well as their 500 calorie burn workout and the ultimate fat burn collection.

I need to get back to work LOL

Total Body Time Crunch is a pink Firm that is cardio & sculpt (AWT), and so are the Jiggle Free Arms & Jiggle Free Buns from the Transfirmer series. Are you looking for non-Classic Firms that use any of the equipment (step, balls), or just resistance dumbbells/bands?

I think that a VFer has posted a list of all of the Firm workouts by category (sculpt, cardio and Cardio & sculpt), but I did not find it by searching on this site (not sure what the tags are for it or exact title of thread).

I'm looking for ones that use resistance. I have most equipment but looking for true AWT

You might also want to look at the FitPrime and KickButt workouts from WHFN, since they're the old-style FIRMs without the dated quality to them.
