DVD Reviews of The Firm Bootcamp - Maximum Calorie Burn
DVD Review: Simple is best
Summary: 2 Stars
It's a lot more difficult following moves in a video than in a live class. A good video addresses this issue by either offering an introductory segment outlining the moves that will be used during the exercise or showing the moves slowly before launching into the exercise. With "The Firm Bootcamp", it would be best to offer a section that goes through the various arm and leg movements in slow motion so we can get those down first rather than try to learn them while keeping our heart rate up...which I find impossible. I am not the most coordinated person in the world, especially when it comes to doing different things with my arms and legs at the same time and I know there are a lot of folks like me out there. It is extremely frustrating when the instructor (Alison Davis) is going through the moves at a lightning pace and just as I get one batch down, she adds more and more. I do not understand why such a large number of combinations need to be used at once when simple power moves would work just as well if not better because the person isn't stumbling trying to figure out what to do next. This is the third The firm video I've tried and I'm quite disgusted. I thought perhaps it was the step in the trans-firmer series that was tripping me up (literally), but I've found I'm stumbling around even without the step. They simply add way too many moves at too quick of a pace for someone new to this type of work-out to learn and follow properly.
I find the Tae Bo and Get Ripped videos to be much easier to follow and I get just as good of a workout if not more so. If I put Billy Blanks on mute and turn my own music on, I have no problems because the moves are SIMPLE and straight forward. I've never owned a video that played good music in the background and every instructor's voice gets old to listen to after awhile, so it is nice to be able to mute it and put on my own workout music. I can't do this with The Firm, because the moves change too much and I'm forced to listen to that god awful excuse for electronica in the background. One thing I love about the Ripped and Tae Bo videos is they drop the cliche girly aerobic moves and add some real "punch" to the workout. The Firm chooses to use overly complex boring combinations that I do not find motivating or empowering. Not all females want to be dancers.
Also, there is a lot of emphasis on squats and lunges (the lower body), but not enough on the upper body or the abs. The abs section was decent, but I really didn't feel the burn.
I gave it 2 stars because it is a decent workout if you are familiar with the moves and can follow along.
