Hi, welcome to Firm CardioSculpt.
I'm Allie, and with me are
fellow master instructors
Lisa,
Jen,
Krista,
and Libby.
If you're new to the Firm Workout, I'd like you to follow Libby.
She'll be performing a modified
version of each exercise.
This 55 minute workout combines
fat burning aerobics and effective weight
training to get you the fastest results
possible. Because you have both
large and small muscle groups, you'll need
a variety of weights. To start,
I recommend a pair of three,
five, and eight pound
dumbbells. I will cue you
which weights to use. If you feel
the weights are too heavy, or you
cannot maintain proper form,
adjust your weights to meet your needs.
And, of course, you'll need the
Firm Fanny Lifter, the key
to getting the results you want.
With this adjustable step, you'll shape and
tone your thighs and buttocks, and burn
more fat during cardio routines.
