Certified instructor description: You get 30-second cardio bursts in a challenging lower-body workout. The aerobic intervals boost the intensity as they prepare your legs for the next series (fast-paced movements designed to “shake out” the muscles). Each of the five cycles has the same easy-to-follow, well-sequenced format. You’ll begin with a basic move, add some interesting variations, integrate a balance element, and end with the cardio burst. The exercises are all familiar Firm classics like curtsy lunges, dead-lifts and on-the-floor glute bridges. Requires two sets of dumbbells (e.g. 3 lb. & 5 lb.). Led by Kelsie Daniels. ©2007. Note: Newly released as a separate DVD, previously only available in the “Transfirmation Deluxe” set. DVD has: Spanish option.

The Firm: Tight Buns & Killer Legs

Challenging and Effective
Contrary to some of the other reviews here, I think this is a well-cued, fun and challenging workout. It is perfect to add on to other workouts because it is short but tough if you use heavy weights. Kelsie is one of my favorites because she is not your typical Stepford Wife Firm instructor. Check her out in the 30-day express set, she rocks! - posted by holly on 3/30/2012
too easy
I love Kelsie but this video was way too easy. This video should be rated beginners definitely not intermediate. - posted by LaTona on 2/10/2012
Excellent video
This one is a good workout and Kelsey is an excellent instructor. I liked the timing and the fact that the video was able to pack in a lot in a relatively short time. A winner. - posted by Tipi on 10/9/2011

Very Good Firm Workout, Just What I Expected
Good, thorough workout, just what I would expect from The Firm. I was not disappointed. I really liked the intervals, they were very effective. - posted by Linda on 5/5/2011
The Firm: Tight Buns & Killer Legs
Kelsie Daniels really knows about legs, she is amazing! - posted by Diomar on 2/18/2011
Tight buns and killer legs
I really like this video a lot. I am a Firm-aholic and didn't get this one because I prefer the longer workouts. I'm really glad I got this one though because I love it! The cardio mixed in is fun to do, the moves are simple but challenging in the leg work sections and it moves along at a great pace. You end up burning more calories that you think you would and you won't mind doing it! As I said, the moves are fairly simple, squats, leg lifts etc but you can vary the weight intensity for more of a challenge. - posted by Carrie on 2/3/2011
Felt Great after the First Day!
This Dvd is great! I felt the burn and felt my muscles tightening after the first time trying the video. I'm pear shape and this DVD was the right pick. Kelsie gives you beginner as well as intermediate instructions. Love these videos, I will be ordering more soon! - posted by Crystal on 1/2/2011
good one to have in repertoire
I ordered this video when I was pregnant with baby #3 based on the reviews here and also from watching the clip. I am not disappointed in it at all. I think this is a good one to have in your video selection. It's great if you are short on time/busy with 3 kids like me. I like to stick this one in between Jillian's 30-day Shred/Turbo Jam/The Firm Power Half Hour. I like Kelsie. I think she does a great job as the leader. IDK about the comments about being hard to follow. A good thing to do when you get a video for the first time if you don't want to be totally lost is to watch it ahead of time before you do it. It's okay to mess up the first few times; I do it all the time - you're giving your brain a good workout that way too! I worked up a sweat and my buns and legs were sore the next day after returning to working out with this. Granted, I am not very in shape like I used to be, but I'm working on that and Kelsie's helping me! I can see where this could get a little too easy but if you are getting back into shape or don't have much time and want to mix it up, this is a great video for your lower body. - posted by Mandy on 9/23/2010
Just okay
I really like Kelsie's other workouts - I have her Kettlebell one, the kickboxing one, and the 500 calorie torture one. This one was really just okay. I was hoping to be a bit sore the next day and wasn't at all - even when I increased from 5 lb dumbbells to 8 lb. I thought the cardio was very mediocre too. Very boring. The transitions were not smooth and she didn't do a very good job of cueing. I love the Firm, I love Kelsie, but this video - not so much. - posted by Kristen on 4/22/2010

Reading a Time Graph
X
Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.

Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.
sample time graph
Spanish option
X
In addition to English, you can choose to hear the program in Spanish.
Level
X
Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.

Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).

Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.

Aerobics impact
X
Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.

Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.

Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.

Aerobics choreography
X
Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.

Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.

Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.

Toning emphasis
X
Upper body: Arms, chest and back.

Lower Body: Legs, thighs, hips and buttocks.

Abs: Abdominals (stomach), core and sometimes lower back.

Total body: Tones all three of the above muscle groups.

Floor aerobics & toning
X
Definition: Includes two workout activities. The aerobics segments are fast-paced standing movements like marching, dancing and jumping. These segments require no equipment. The toning sections are slow, controlled movements working against a resistance. These may include Pilates and weight training.

Benefits: The combination of both activities provides a balanced workout. The aerobics burns calories, strengthens your heart and increases stamina. The toning builds lean muscles, increases your metabolism and makes everyday activities easier.
