Description of The Firm Total Body TransFIRMation KitThe FIRM Cardio Weight System works because it combines fat burning cardio and body sculpting weights to burn up to 3 times more fat than cardio alone. It melts away the fat and reshapes your body for results you can see in 10 workouts or less. The Total Body TransFIRMation Kit includes 2 handles and a total of 8 lbs of weight that allows for a customized workout for all levels of fitness. In addition, The FIRM Total Body TransFIRMation Kit includes 210 minutes of programming that includes the following DVD's: "Hi-Def Sculpt" with Annie Lee, "Hard Core Fusion" with Allie Del Rio, "Cardio Overdrive" with Allison Davis and the "Bonus" workout "Cardio Party" with Rebekah Sturkie and all the FIRM Master Instructors. All of this comes with a 48-page Weight Loss Success Guide and includes a Custom Carrying Case. Shape, tone, and strengthen your body with the Firm's Total Body TransFIRMation kit. Equipped with a set of Firm CardioWeights, 210 minutes of workout programming on DVD, a 48-page Weight Loss Success Guide, and a custom carrying case, the kit will melt away the fat and reshape your body in no time. CardioWeights are the Firm's most effective fitness tool yet, with a pair of 1-pound handles and 8 pounds of additional weight, letting you customize your workout depending on your strength or fitness goals. By combining the body sculpting weights with a fat-burning cardio routine, you can burn up to three times more fat than cardio alone. Simply pick your resistance level for each workout--the weights screw easily onto the handles in a clockwise motion--and increase the resistance as you become stronger, leaner, and more confident. Even better, the handles and weights are designed to work exclusively with the Firm's unique blend of aerobic and body sculpting exercises. When used in conjunction with the Firm Master Instructor's directions, you will begin toning and burning fat immediately.

Sports reviews of The Firm Total Body TransFIRMation KitCustomer Review: Not the FIRM I know and love Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
I've been working out with The FIRM for 7 years. I have all their "kits" - Body Sculpting System 1, Body Sculpting System 2, The TransFIRMer and many other individual tapes/DVDs. This TransFIRMation is a disappointment. It lost its own FIRM identity. The layout of the studio where the workouts were taped at looks so much like that of Prevention's. The instructors have added some "light talking" (which they never did before), very similar to Chris Freytag's style (who's one of the best Prevention's fitness experts). The moves and sequences are almost identical to those of the Tracie Long Training DVDs. (Tracie Long and Jen Carmen, former FIRM instructors started the TLT business together.) Although you can still get results from the workouts in this kit, as a long-time FIRM user, I'm disappointed. Also, I don't care much about the new crew. I still enjoy Allie Del Rio and Emily Welsh, but other great trainers such as Stephanie Huckabee, Nancy Tucker, Lisa Kay and Libby Heath who helped put The FIRM on the map are no longer there. They were fantastic trainers!
Customer Review: Not much of a TransFIRMation Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
I typically have very good things to say about The Firm series, but these DVDs are just okay. The Cardio Party quite honestly just sucks!! Absolutely no new moves. How many times must we do the tri-star or low jacks?? I get so bored with Annie Lee's segment, I just want to fall asleep. For those that have used The Firm might be a little frustrated with the same moves taught by Emily in her other videos. I only use Cardio Party when I travel because it is so very basic that it can be easily done in the hotel room.
The other three videos are a little bit more challenging. I do like some of the moves in Cardio Overdrive. Annie Lee is very annoying to listen to in her DVD so I can only do the 25-minute version.
Overall, if you don't have any of the other Firm DVDs, this is a good option. But if you have been using The Firm for awhile, have low expectations.
Customer Review: Did not care for at all! Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
The weights are just terrible. Metal shavings everywhere. Luckily, I have my own weights. I did not like the workouts either though. What happened to the Firm? It was so much better back in the 90s. I did also like the Transfirmer set but I only liked 2 of the workouts. Then they moved on to this set and did not make any more videos for the Transfirmer (which they should have). The cardio segments are just plain cheesy as are some of the instructors in this Transfirmation set. Unless you are a true Firm junky do not buy these. Note: I did get Total Body Toner with Allie Del Rio and it is not sold in this set..it is separate. That one is good but more for beginner/intermediate. For more intermediate/advanced exercisers I recommend Jari Love Get Ripped dvds any day over the Firm. Great price and results fast!
Customer Review: Weights are POOR QUALITY Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
The videos themselves are great, but the weights are junk. The screw on one pound weights get stripped so easily and won't stay screwed together. It's great when you're working out and a one pound piece of metal almost flys thru your tv because they don't stay screwed on. It takes a month or so to get, and you get three months in which you can return. So since it happened after three months (I'd only used them probably 15 times) I'm out of the weights. Sure, I can buy more, but the company wasn't even accomodating enough to replace the ONE 1 lb weight that stripped, so now the weights are uneven amts of lbs and I have to buy a new set of weights, hopefully froma a more dependable manufacturer who doesn't make junk.
Customer Review: Be careful when ordering Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
Be careful when ordering this product from Amazon. I purchased this product because I liked the idea of not having to drag weights into the living room every time I did a work out. This new Transfirmation system promises that you will be able to easily change the weights. O nthe FIRM's website they promise you 12 one-pound weights. When I ordered this from amazon, I only recieved FOUR, FOUR weights. I am so mad. I dont even know if this is the same one the FIRM sells. I also thin the Transfirmer is much more effective and fun. So you may want to think of ordering this directly from the FIRMS website. Now I know why the price on Amazon was cheaper- because they dont send you ALL the weights.
