Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Strength training, cardio intervals, and isometric toning comprise The Firm: Better Body and Buns. Three instructors team-teach this 45-minute total-body workout, and they don't miss a beat (or a body part). Muscles in the lower body are trained through a rigorous regimen of lunges, dips, and squats (quad killers coined "hovers" are introduced and are sure to make the legs burn). The upper body receives similar treatment with attention to the tricep, bicep, pectoral, deltoid, and back muscles. Participants will need a variety of weight sizes to get started (3 to 8 pounds), a step (14 inches), a dowel (or a broom handle), and ankle weights (for the die-hards). The variety of equipment, exercises, and tempo create a lively and quick-moving workout that will challenge students' strength and endurance. Abdominal crunches and inverse curls are used to train the torso, and stretching rounds out this total bodywork. Aerobic segments are more similar to cardio bursts (they only total four minutes within the whole video), and they don't provide steady-state cardiovascular exercise. This program would complement an aerobic regimen beautifully, but participants shouldn't rely on this format for an intense aerobic challenge. Better Body and Buns is sure to fatigue the muscles while holding the attention of its participants. --Olivia Voigts Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Great total body workout, focused on the butt and legsI really enjoy this workout. It is tough on the legs and glutes, especially the tall-box segments, but one can modify to a shorter step or lighter dumbbells as needed. There are three instructors in this workout. Jen Carman is like a cheerleader- fun, bubbly, impossibly fit. Taber Bruner is like a schoolteacher in her delivery, but is in fantastic shape and moves like a dancer. Jen Peluso seems a bit snobbish. She is very flexible, but is not as strong as the other instructors. ... Read More Rating: - A favoriteThis is one of my favorite Firm workouts. It really shapes the lower body in a short time. I wish they would release it on DVD. Rating: - Good workout for the lower body...This workout emphasizes on reshaping your lower body with a variety of exercises, but there is some upper body and ab work as well. You will need a tall box, assorted dumbells and a dowel or broom handle is used for the stretch. Three instructors lead you through this workout, Jennifer Carmen, Taber Bruner and Jennifer Peluso. This workout is part of the Firms Tri-Trainer series, which includes Maximum Body Shaping and Fat Blaster. After a brief warmup and stretch, you start out with ab ... Read More Rating: - Great Workou!!!!I really enjoy this video. It has 3 instructors and begins with a tough abdominal section. I really like the length....only 45 minutes but a tough 45 minutes! You'll feel this the next day after you start. Also, you will need a 12-14" fanny lifter for this tape. Rating: - Not the hardest firm, but certainly the most funIm gonna stand up for this tape. Yeah it may to be that hard (I just increase the poundage to make it more difficult) but it is so much fun. Taber and Jen are excellent instructors and their cuing is right on. Jen Peluso is another story, her form and cuing isnt that great. There is an abs segment at the beginning instead of the end so if that turns you off then forget about this tape. There is some wannabe pilates in this tape as well so if your a pilates buff you might not like the firms take on ...
