The FIRM always delivers on its promises. I've been using their videos with great results for more than 10 years. The latest videos (as advertised on TV) are no exception--they are VERY effective if used on a regular basis (4-5 times per week for maximum results). I highly recommend these videos to anyone who seriously wants to change the shape of their body!

This program is AMAZING! After giving birth to a beautiful baby girl, I had a hard time losing the excess weight I gained throughout my pregnancy. Just to let you know, I almost have every single infomercial video in the market and there's nothing like the Firm system! The fanny lifter makes all the difference because it targets your buttocks (if that's your problem area). I ordered the Firm program on a leap of faith and saw the difference within the first 10 workouts as promised. I've been using the system for 4 weeks now and have gone down 2 pant sizes. (Ladies, this is without watching my diet!) My husband noticed the difference and his compliment totally motivated me. I've been getting compliments from co-workers also. It took over a month to get my Firm videos but once you start doing the exercises, it's worth the wait. Just listen to the instructors in the videos and you can't go wrong. Good luck!

I've been using The Firm with the Fanny Lifter for about a month now. I'm fifty-one years old, eat only 1200 calories a day and was putting on weight even with exercise, good water intake, etc.! I tried The Firm because I know that I'm going to have to build muscle in order to get a functioning metabolism again, and I'm beginning to see results with this program. I can feel it working and, although I've only lost a couple of pounds, my clothes are already getting bigger on me. Also, all of my life I've exercised only because I have to; I've never enjoyed any kind of physical exercise until now. I can't explain why I like this program, but I look forward to each day of working out to the videos. It is fun, but I also appreciate the fact that I'm taking care of both a cardio workout at the same time that I'm weight training. This program is wonderful.

I have been using the The Firm W/Fanny Lifter for a little over a month and have seen great results, I have tried many other work out videos and nothing has worked for me,The Firm is different, for once I look forward to working out and I know it's because I'm seeing results I have even stopped going to the Gym. I am very pleased with this product, not only has it changed my body but it has changed my confidence, The Firm is something I am going to use the rest of my life.

I have been using the FIRM Body Sculpting system for about a month and this is the only way I work out now. I have seen some physical results, but even if I didn't, I would still continue to do this workout regularly just for the way it makes me feel. I sweat buckets, my thighs burn, my knees ache... but when it's all over, the feeling is indescribable... it's like having a constant "runner's high" that lasts from the morning well into the evening! Well worth the $89.95. I ordered from a company other than the manufacturer, and I had no problem receiving the system, it came within 1-5 days as promised.

I think the firm is a wonderful PRODUCT! I weighed 150 and I was 5'8. NOW after 3 months I weigh 130! My body is toned and I'm happy! thanks to the FIRM!

Post-college weight (20 lbs) slowly crept up on me due to a busier schedule, different lifestyle, etc. I knew all the right things to eat and the best ways to work out (I had always done a combo of cardio and weights), I just didn't have the motivation to be consistent. I ordered the Firm, hoping it would be something I could stay with. I quickly began to get my muscle tone back and have seen great definition in my arms and legs. I am even motivated to eat better because I don't want to lessen the effects of the workout by overeating or eating the wrong things. Working out is no longer something I HAVE to do, but something I WANT to do. I have finally found what will get me over that hump and into those pants I wore in college!

I received the program about a month ago and have been using since. I truly do like the workouts - it is just the right combination of weights & aerobic activities that I like to do. However, I caution people not to order from the infomercial - find an alternate online source. It is less expensive (both cost of product & shipping - shipping alone was over $20!) and less headaches. Even though I repeatedly said no to the pills, extra videos, etc., I received anyway and they charged my credit card. I then had the hassle of returning all of it. I continue to receive annoying telemarketing calls for "free" Firm product trials (that they end up charging for).

WOW! Like everyone else, I think that The Firm is a great workout! But beware of the Good Times service department!!! They will send you stuff you never ordered, and charge you for it. I must say that when I called to report this problem and had to pay to have the stuff returned, they did reimburse me for all shipping fees, as I included copies of my postal receipts. So just use another company...Good Times is out for their own "good time." But back to the firm....if you want something that will put you into that "fat-burning" zone, this is definitely it! Just be careful if your short....the fanny lifter is one BIG step!

To anyone who is overweight and considering this product: BEWARE! I am about 24 pounds overweight. After using the Cardio Sculpt tape only three times (I followed the 90-day rotation calendar that is included in the package), I began to feel a strange fluttering in my chest and was having chest pains. I had never had this phenomenon before! I ended up in the emergency room. After a series of tests, I learned that I had in fact overworked my heart. The doctor said it was due to strenuous exercise. The ONLY exercise I've been doing is this Firm package. The doctor put me on complete rest for a month, hoping that my heart will recover on its own. If not, I may need surgery. It's been two weeks, and I still continue to have the constant fluttering in my chest. They should put a warning on this product that overweight individuals may not be able to perform the exercises without injury. Or they should develop a new rotation guide targeted at overweight people, where you only do half the tape the first week instead of the whole tape. So please, be careful of this product. Regardless of what anyone says, it IS possible to overexert yourself and not even know it at the time. I felt fine while doing the video and made it through the whole thing three times without feeling poorly. Sure, I was sweating and out of breath during the workout, but that's the whole point of a workout! It was after I had already completed it 3 times that I began to get sick.

I really enjoy the Firm with Fanny Lifter. I'm 45 years old, own a gym membership, and have a treadmill, etc. I like to change my routines every now and then. The Firm has become one of my favorites. It's very challenging, but doable. I would not consider this a beginners tape unless you follow along without using weights. I have about 20 more pounds to lose, but things are definitely getting tighter and lifting. The fanny lifter allows for very effective lunges. The tapes are of good quality, the instructors are upbeat and happy without being dips, and the routines are easy to learn and follow. It's a program that will take you a while to grow out of.

I purchase the The Firm with the Fanny lifter from another company. I try the Ab Sculpt first. That is a good tape the instructor Lisa is good. Easy to follow. The Cardio was much harder for me and I did not get too far. Two reason. 1) I'm not very coordinated. I hate fancy steps. 2) I had knee surgery on my right knee the Fanny lifter is really high for me. What I do is this. The Body Sculpt tape is good but again when it comes to the warm up I had a hard time keeping up with Jennifer. That part was frustrating. The lower body workout went too fast for me. So I learn the work out and do them on my own @ a lower pace three set of each 12 rep. Also the disassembly, reassemblying and moving the fanny lifter out of the way was a bit annoying. The upper body work out is great and I follow that. I agree with the others. The fanny lifter is high for a short person. If a beginners purchases the tape they should really, really follow the person on the tape that does the monify version. Not worth the injury.

This program is very well rounded, is enjoyable and do-able. If you're thinking of trying a workout program, I would recommend The Firm. Just remember to modify at first (by using only one of the Fanny Lifter segments, and/or by marching in place when you get tired) and work at your present fitness level. You'll be amazed at how quickly you gain strength. In just 4 weeks, I can do all the workouts without modification, and am adding weights (I used just my own body weight as resistance before, which worked well for me). I am also losing 2-3 pounds per week, without being on a starvation diet. Regardless if you're a man or a woman, this is a fun, challenging and sensible workout. Good luck!

I am a 5'5", 130 lb, 24 year old female who began to use the FIRM 7 years ago. I have been more consistent my workouts within the past 2 years. I can not think of a better way to stay energetic and fit. I love the cardio exercises and see a lot of results from the Fanny Lifter, squats, and lunges. I get a lot of compliments from family, friends, co-workers, etc. Getting the proper weights does make a difference. I have lost inches and gained definition all over, even in my torso and thighs. I recommend that any person who wants to see permanent results from old fashioned sweat and work, buy this product. I also recommend seeing a doctor before beginning because the program is very cardio.

I bought the firm for myself for Christmas. I've been an advid walker for years, but was looking to add something to give other muscles a workout. I've done most of the tapes and find them hard at first to follow. They go so fast and if you don't know the steps, you get left behind. I imagine with time I will memorize the steps and they'll get second nature. Also, you have to be quick to put fanny lifter aside and pick up weights. There's not much time to do that and by the time I get all that done, I'm behind a few steps. I just wish they had slowed down a tad to give us time to put the fanny lifter together, etc. I was sore after the first day though and that was good. I knew it was working. I plan on keeping at it and have after just maybe 5 workouts have seen some changes for the better which helps me want to keep at it. It does go by rather fast, so just hang in there cause I think it'll be worth it.

I purchased the Firm based on a friends opinion and watching the product being demonstrated on the infomercials. I have to say when I first started using the product I found it difficult. It really had my knees hurting because of the fanny lifter. I am one of those people that exercise like crazy for a few months then stops. I notice myself picking back up a lot of weight then I go back to exercising. I enjoy the tapes and I use them with my weight loss program. I think they were worth the purchase. It was a smart buy.

I bought the tapes in February or March of last year, I've been doing them ever since. We moved to Florida form Michigan in October and I don't think I could have done it with out the workout strength I've gained. We moved to a second floor apartment and I have asthma, but it is no problem to run up and down the stairs now to carry in groceries or do laudry. I have to be careful, because of the asthma, but I just decrease my weights on bad days. The people at my new job down here have noticed the weightloss. I don't get on the scale, because I can tell more by how my clothes fit. But I feel more energitic the days I workout than when I don't. I don't use the Bodyscult tape though. I alternate between the ab and cardio tape. I couldn't keep up with the body one, it was too difficult to follow.

I ordered The Firm about two months ago and I love it! I feel much slimmer and much more healthy. The videos are challenging at first. It took me a few weeks to really be able to keep up with them. The steps were complicated but once you go through them a few times they become second nature. I would also suggest ordering the videos from someone else other than Good Times. I didn't take very long for me to get my videos but they did send me things afterwards that I didn't order.

I purchased the Firm Fanny lifter. The results are amazing. Though it isn't easy at first. Especially with trying to keep up on the cardio, they do move fast, but if you just take your time, and rest when you need to it just gets easier and better. I am very happy with it. It's been three weeks, and I have just started to use weights. I can tell the difference in my clothes. I wish I would have found this years ago!
