Sports reviews of The Firm Sculpting SystemCustomer Review: hard work, but worth it Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
These work out's are intense, but the results I had with them are fabulous.
I started out with 3,5, and 8 pound weights, and after about a month I moved up to 5,8 and 10 pound weights. I never needed to move up from there. I started doing these work out's when my 2nd child was about 4 months old. I had been doing Kathy Ireland's Total Body Conditioning workout, and I thought I was in good shape. Boy was I shocked by how sweaty I got when I attempted my first Firm workout. I was dripping sweat, panting, and my legs were shaking. These workout's are the only workout's I have ever had great result's with. By the time my son was 10 months old, I weighed 14 pounds less than before I got pregnant with him. I weighed less than I did in high-school. My back looked amazing. I was never able to follow the eating plan, these work outs + breastfeeding made me HUNGRY.
I only stopped doing them because my kids, aged one and three would not leave me alone. They'd play with the weights and run around me in circles while I tried to work out. I took a few months off from working out.
When my son was about one and a half I joined a gym. I started working out there, at 109.5 pounds (I'm 5 ft tall) and 30 percent body fat I was looking to gain muscle and lose fat. Within six months I had gotten down to 26 percent body fat by working out at the gym, although my weight stayed the same. In December my kids got sick, and I was unable to make it to gym. I started doing my Firm work out's again, and a month later when I went back to the gym my trainer took my body fat measurment, he was scolding me for missing my gym work out's, but when he saw my results, he had to eat his words. I had dropped 2 pounds and 5 percent body fat, in one month, at Christmas time.
Now I have three kids and am back at the gym. If only someone would come watch my kids here at my house, I would be doing my Firm work out's again. My 3rd child is 8 months old and I still need to lose 9 pounds to get back to where I was before I got pregnant with him. I'm just not able to push my self at the gym the way these videos do. I still do the Ab Sculpt video 2/3 days a week, and when I can't get to the gym because my kids are sick, I do the Body Sculpt video, but you have to do them regularly to get the great results I had before.
