What's in the Box? TransFIRMer, three full-length DVDs, the Firm Results Program Guide
About The Firm It all began in 1979 when The Firm Studio opened in South Carolina. By combining cardio and weight training, The Firm recognized that people could burn fat, build muscle, and get the bodies they wanted safely, effectively, and quickly. This cardio-plus-body-sculpting fitness hybrid--called Synergy Training--formed the basis for The Firm method then and is still central to The Firm philosophy today. It didn't take long for fitness enthusiasts to catch on, and The Firm was off and running.
When The Firm decided to share their successful method with people who were unable to travel to the Studio, the at-home workout series was born. The Firm received glowing reviews and top professional awards from the very start. Since then, The Firm has sold more than ten million workouts. Today, The Firm mission is to continue researching and creating superior fitness techniques and products for reshaping and toning the body.

Similar to the last TransFIRMer Step System
I bought this product because I lost my last step in a house fire. These workouts have a few new moves incorporating the new step. I love that I can use my old TransFIRMer workouts with this step as well, giving me a variety of workouts to chose from. The workouts with this program, as with most of the FIRM workouts are pretty challenging. The DVD's that come with the step have great instruction. I would recommend watching them first to get an idea of the moves. Overall, even at 6 months pregnant, I'm able to do most of the exercises and find this system motivational.

Very effective workout!
When I purchased The Transfirmer step(s), I already had a 6" step that I was using for my 'The Firm' routines. What a difference the extra inches have made in the intensity of my workouts! Going from 6" to 14" when the instructors say "Get your tall box" is a LOT harder, so will make for quicker results and a firmer me!

FEEL the burn. Great workout.
This is a great workout. Sometimes I do have to pause to catch the correct form of an exercise, but after I've watched the DVD once, I can usually remember till the next workout what happens next and correct form.
My only gripe is I have a very old DVD player. I can't change on the menu which workout (or warm up) I want to do. This will probably not be an issue with folks with newer DVD players. I just have to fast forward through what I don't want to get to what I want...
perhaps my next order on Amazon will be a new DVD player. But just as a warning to others who might have older style DVD players.
It is recommended not to do this everyday, and to supplement with other lighter exercises on your "day off" from the transfirmer. I use my exercise bike on my "days off" and feel I'm am getting the correct amount of exercise, the combination, at least for me, seems JUST RIGHT.
Also included are helpful diet tips for those interested.
This came with three DVD's, and if I don't get bored with them I'm going to order more "THE FIRM" products. This is NOT the only exercise program they have available. But for now, I think this is all I need!
