The Firm: Maximum Body Shaping |
    Not Intermediate/Advanced |
| First off, on the front cover it clearly states this is Beginner to Intermediate. If you look closely at the upper left corner you will see it. I do not understand the Inter/Adv rating given by Collage. For a beginner this would be a great and thorough workout. I am an advanced exerciser and breezed right through this. Even while using very heavy weights, I found it to be no challenge, because there simply isn't enough reps. I had to do some additional weight training just to feel as if I had gotten a decent workout in. The music is pretty awful and combined with the too easy workout, this is not a DVD I would use again. - posted by Olivia on 7/10/2009 |

    LOVE this workout! |
| I own practically every Firm video and this is one of my favorites. It is the perfect length (45 min) and I sure feel it the next day. This workout can also be modified for beginners. I highly recommend this video for anyone wanting to tone up without a lot of fancy steps. - posted by Jen on 5/6/2009 |

    OLD SCHOOL-but one of The Best!! |
| I love this video and do this and alternate days of biking or running, I really feel this after doing it the next day!!!! I wish THE FIRM would go back to this type of efficient and effective video and basic workouts of the old FIRM format(of course with a modern edge) rather than the gimmicky WAVE nonsense they seem to have going on now. The newer videos are way too short and easy. Someone at THE FIRM needs to be fired over the decision to depart from what made THE FIRM so great in the first place. - posted by Deborah on 4/23/2009 |

    Really like this one! |
| One of my favorite overall total body strength and endurance work-outs. It gets the job done in under an hour. Tracie's cueing is perfect. I reach for this one often - posted by jf on 2/21/2009 |

    Lots of Abs |
| Not many overall work outs spend much time on abs, but this one did. And the best part, it was varied. Both my daughter and I enjoy this work out for the abs and lower body. I can't get through the lower body with ankle weights, there are more than a few different exercises. The good part, after they work one leg, they jump back to abs before starting the other leg. I suggest additional stretching beyond the 3 minutes provided at the end. - posted by Lisa on 12/30/2008 |

    Great! |
| I keep coming back to this one every week. I don't get tired of it because it's just a good all-around, every muscle worked, excellent production, workout. Something about the older Firm that you don't mind doing every week. The newer "pink" one's, I get tired of very quickly. - posted by Pauline on 12/30/2008 |

    FAVORITE |
| This is a great workout. You feel like all your muscles have been worked in under an hour. I try others workouts and always come back to this one. The more in shape you are the heavier the weights you can use and make it more challenging. I don't get bored with this one like a lot of others. - posted by LLW on 12/6/2008 |

    Good total body workout |
| This is is another oldie but goodie. It is a good total body workout for under 45 minutes. The newer FIRMs just don't compare to the ones made before 2001. Incredible instructing from Traci, very clear, and she knows just when you might be compromising your form. Smile at the outdated styling, but be prepared to love this tape! - posted by Cindie on 9/28/2008 |

    Great total body workout! |
| I usually get tired of doing the same routines over and over again, but I haven't found a toning DVD as good as this one so I find myself going back to it just about every Monday, Wednesday and Friday - and I still love it! Tracy is a great instructor - very motivational. She really makes it easy to follow along and she makes you want to keep going. I highly recommend this one as a great total body toning workout! - posted by Christi on 9/24/2008 |

    Fabulous |
| I pulled this out yesterday after alot of years. I forgot how great this is. Works every part of your body in under an hour. This is the way a total body w/o should be. Not dragging on and on and on .. Can't wait to do it again. Graet job Tracey! - posted by Deborah on 7/24/2008 |
