Who uses their vids? Which do you have?

Did the 40 minute Total Body Toner today, along with another video I have called Dance It Off & Tone It Up. Not bad. I need to invest in some weights though.

I have to confess to owning a great many of the Firm's workouts, ranging from the Classics to the newest 'Pink' Firms. Most of my favorites come from the complilation workouts and the newest Pinks. I like the 'cardio and weights in one workout' factor, but it took me a while to get used to them. I do at least one a week, mixing them in with other cardio or weights workouts.

Below I have listed some favorites.

Ultimate Fat Burning workout
Cardio Glove Kit ~ 20min
Cardio Sculpt
Body Sculpt
Target Toning Zero In Ten
Cardio Explosion
Cardio Dance Slimdown
Sculpted Buns Hips and Thighs ~ Tracie Long
Tight Buns and Killer Legs
Transfirm your Trouble Zones {kettlebell}
Super Cardio Mix

lostangel05, I have a large collection too. The only system I don't have is the Wave. I have quite a few individual DVDs and I have the kit with the weighted ball & jump rope. the one with the toning band and the Pilates DVD with the stretchy cord. Right now I am doing a rotation for the new Firm Express System and I'm loving it.

patchworkpenguin, How do you like the weighted gloves? I have been contemplating ordering that one.

Gettinfit, I like the 'glove' workout, but its more bootcamp than kbox in my opinion; led by Rebekah, whom I like. I didn't realize when I ordered that its only 20min long, so I was a little disappointed, but it is fun. The gloves fit my rather large hands well {7.5 in wrist, 8" from pinky to thumb} There's a velco wrist strap, a thumb loop and a loop at the top to stick two {or more?} fingers though. The weight is a full lb, which sits on the back of the hand. I actually prefer holding dumbbells to wearing the 'glove'.

Thanks for the info Penguin. I'm not sure if I will invest in them. I've also been eyeing a set that Weight Watchers has called Punch & Kick (I believe) that has the weighted gloves and it's led by Stephanie Huckabee who used to be with the Firm. That may be a reward to myself when I reach onederland.

GettinFit, I found the above reviews about Stephanie's Punch on an exercise forum I belong to. I thought you might find it interesting. The last review is very comprehensive. Of course having read the reviews, now I'm wondering if I would enjoy it too, LOL.

Thanks Penguin. I love kick boxing so I know I will like it. I hope Weight Watchers puts it on sale in the near future as I think it's $39.95 at their centers.
