I have this on DVD
I have the DVD of this workout. I'm extremely overweight and recently started a diet/exercise routine. I picked up a few different exercise DVDs to start out with. This is a great work out. You feel it immediately, your muscles feel it the next day. It works you hard. It's a little difficult for a beginner because they go from move to move extremely fast and if you don't know what you are doing...it might take a second to catch on. I recommend this workout. It's helping me a lot and is giving me a lot of energy.

Sadistic
I just did this tape with weights for the first time and it is tough. I have been working out regularly with Firm videos and this is the toughest yet. By the time you finish Jayne Poteet's hover squats, Renee Chabut will the most beautiful person you've ever seen on TV because you will be doing stretches with her. This is tougher than Cathe's Pyramid Lower Body. I think if you do it regularly, you will achieve beautiful results. Very aerobic too.

TOUGH
If I do this tape without any weights, i can get thru the entire tape, feel sore for the next day and see results. If i use the weights i can only do 1/2 the tape, feel sore the next day and see results. I try to switch it up, one week use weights, the next week no weights. My legs are pretty thin and show muscle quickly which is fortunate for me.

This workout is relentless. Squats, lunges, step ups, oh theres just SOOO many of them. But the tape goes by quick. Changing of instructors keeps you from getting bored. My only problem with this tape is NO inner thigh work. So i modify and do plie squats instead of squats on some of the circuits.

Try this tape. it says results in 10 workouts. say results in as little as 2 or 3 if combined with a good diet.

Best Buns & Thighs workout on tape
I have most of the FIRM tapes and Standing Legs is, by far, the best if your problem area is the [...] & thighs.

The workout incorporates sections from different FIRM workouts that focus on the lower body.

Equipment needed: High Step (12-14 inches) Heavy weights, Light Weights, Ankle Weights, barbell (I just use heavy weights b/c I don't have a barbell - the barbell is only used in a short section while doing squats).

The entire workout lasts for about 45 minutes. There is no abdominal section or floor work -- If you do not have any other workout tapes and are just starting your collection, you will need something with more cardio and with ab work. This video is intended to sculpt the legs and [...].

I have been doing FIRM workouts for years and every time I do this one my legs and [...] are sore for a couple of days. I highly recommend it!!

Felt the burn, but difficult to keep motivated
I didn't expect this video to be well, so..."old-school". The whole feel of the video is so 80's/early 90's, and I found the music to be terrible. I do however believe that the workout itself is pretty good...I definately could feel the burn. I'm not sure if it motivates me enough to stick with it for the long-run.
