Description

The Firm videos have had a longstanding reputation as tough, effective workouts. This offering, Cross Trainers: Firm Cardio, is an interval training workout, alternating the lower body and upper body, using both aerobics and weights. This challenging workout is aimed at intermediate and advanced exercisers with stamina and familiarity with both step aerobics and weight training. Instructor Heidi Tanner leads a roomful of impossibly fit, bare-ribbed women in a rigorous workout combining weight training, step aerobics, and dance aerobics. Although more time is spent with weights than without, it's designed to keep your heart rate up the whole time by keeping the major muscles engaged and changing routines frequently. You'll need two or three sets of dumbbells of varying poundage, ankle weights, one medium step, one high step, a 2x4, a towel, and enough room so you don't trip over all the props you're not using at the moment. This workout was designed to be paired with Cross Trainers: Firm Strength on alternate days. This 60-minute 1993 video was formerly called Variety Strong Heart. --Joan Price

    • Awesome Classic Firm!
I had this workout on VHS years ago and was so glad to see it and the companion "Strength" workout released on DVD format. I have almost all the Firm DVD's and this is one of my favorites. The title "Cardio" is a little misleading because it's not a traditional cardio workout in that your moving large muscle groups continuously without a break, like jogging, dancing, or stepping. Instead, it alternates upper and lower body exercises with weights at a slightly faster, but still controlled, pace. There are also step and dance cardio segments included in the routine and a floor abs/glutes segment. I felt like every muscle was worked in this DVD. It's awesome! I think this workout is suitable for almost all levels. If it's too hard, don't use weights at first. As you progress and it starts to get easier, add more weight. The instructor is great at cueing and the pace is on point; when doing low impact four-limbed dance moves, the weight moves are always controlled. The lunges, dips, and step-ups are done at a comfortable pace, which I appreciate because I have a bum knee. You will need the fanny lifter box or a step with risers, ankle weights, and a set of 3-5-8 lb dumbells to start. The ankle weights are optional for beginners. A lot of people use a rubber maid step stool instead of the fanny lifter. Note: I prefer the classic Firm workouts from the 1986-2006 as opposed to the newer "pink" logo ones. The pink ones are fine, but they aren't as weight training intensive as the classics, which is what I gravitate towards. So if that also sounds like you, you will probably love this workout. I also like the Fitprime and Kickbutt workout series that the original creators of the Firm went on to produce. ... show more

    • simply the best
I have many firm videos in my collection and I have to say this is one of the best (along with Firm Strength being equally as good) The weight lifting segments focus on traditional exercises with no awkward bending and straining, and are gentle on the joints. The movements are also done at a good pace (not too fast or too slow, so you can really concentrate on the movements with heavier weights, which has given me by far the best results) The cardio segments are kept simple (no silly movements, no awkward straining) and use lightweights to maintain your heart rate. Once again, the cardio segments are just enough to keep you sweating, and not too much to burn you out on the next set of weighted exercises. All and all, this is a very effective and efficient work out. You will definitely feel your muscles worked and your joints will not be aching afterward. As a side note, the music isn't the greatest and this is an older video, but the ACTUAL workout is very good. ... show more

    • So fun!
The set and music might be dated, but the exercises and the coaching are not! I love all The Firm classic workouts! They do not disappoint. This one is super high-energy and lots of fun.

    • Not that good.
I own 4 Firm video tapes and rate their top at 5 stars. This tape however, really is not that good. Very confusing transition between exercises that make it difficult to enjoy the workout. It is frustrating to keep up with the frequent changes. Again, not thier best.

    • ok but not very tough
I have the other cross trainer strength dvd so I read all the reviews available and was convinced this would be really good, but its not as hard as I was hoping, the ab section is pretty weak, I do my own routine which is much harder, the tall box work is fine but not as hard as I was thinking it would be, the cardio is very limited, so if you wanted this to really work your muscles you will need to at least lift 8 lbs for most arm work, it does cover the whole body, but I was hoping for more, like vol 1 . I guess I will have to buy the first tough tape , every one says it is tough : ) the floor work is ok if you use ankle weights , the more positive note is every move is pretty slow so heavy weights would be fine as long as you use good form. ... show more

    • Great strength workout
This is another great traditional Firm workout. However, it should not be called a cardio video. There are a few short low impact segments. Otherwise, it is a strength video. I like it in my rotation. For anyone who said that it is easy, they need to use heavier weights. I love that in these older videos, unlike the ones with the fanny lifter and transformer, the instructors actually used dumbells up to 15-20 lbs. ... show more

    • THE FIRM CARDIO
This is a great workout for cardio.It's about 60 mins long. It will get your heart rate up.It also has strength segments which are also great too. The instuctor is friendly,and her cueing is excellent. This video uses a barbell and an fanny lifter. but,regular weights and any type step up box will do.If you use this video with FIRM STRENGTH you will even better results. I recommend any of the FIRM videos for people who like to do cardio and strength workouts. FIRM CARDIO gives you both. ... show more

    • ANYBODY GET THE PLATES ON THE TRUCK THAT JUST RAN ME OVER?
OUCH! I have 9 FIRM tapes - this is one of my favorites. It had me walking like an 80-year old woman the next day. I hadn't been that sore in a long time. But the first time I did it, it obviously strengthened my muscles because I did not have the same problem after that. I have been working out daily for the last 6 months and still cannot get all the way through the abs and legs sections of this tape - it is incredibly challenging, and the aerobics section maxes out my heart rate every time (you really should use a heart-rate monitor with this one so you don't have a coronary). If you feel brave enough, this WILL get you in tip-top shape, and you can have fun while doing it. ... show more
