Default Help with firm videos please...

Okay I have decided to get some firm videos......I don't know which ones to start with and where the best place to get them is.....(cost wise).. I found a set of 4 at Walmart for $37.00 and if I order the set from the firm it is $59.90 plus 20.00 shipping. (This is the Body Sculpting 2)

Thanks for your help.

Wendy

Sometimes the sets at Walmart, Target etc. dont' include the Fanny lifter or sculpting stick that is req. for SS2. It may be easier to just get it from firmdirect.com because you'll get the equipment you need.

If you are new to working out be prepared to be challenged. It will take a bit of time to master all the moves but I'd say by about the 5 workout you'll be more comfortable with them.

Personally my favorite FIRMS are Sculpting System 3 with the Firm Box. But right now since that is the newest it is more expensive than SS2.

Good luck and I hope you love the FIRM. Come and visit all of us FIRMies on the FirmForum anytime.

Thanks for the help......where is the best place to order the set from? I called firm direct and they said it would not ship for 3-4 weeks!!! I would like to have it before than.

Thanks

I ordered BSS2 from firmdirect a month ago and it took 1 week to arrive not 3 or 4 like the site stated. The 59.95 deal is pretty good you get the stick ,the steps and 3 DVD's. I have a bunch of other older firm tapes and DVD's that I purchased from half.com (firm parts, super sculpting, maximum body shaping) I have vol 3 and 5 from years ago too. You will also need some light dumbells (I have 4,6 & 8 lb sets).

I saw BSS1 w/fanny lifter for $60 at Target. My sister got her BSS2 in two weeks ordering directly from Firm.

deepdiscountdvd.com also has some firm videos

Hey mack!
Have you tried ebay for the whole set?
I have one of the dvds that uses the fanny lifter and weight bar, i did not know i needed these things when i bought it but fortunately i had a step reebok from years ago i just turned it longways and it works fine, i also dont have the weight bar i use small hand weights and support myself against the wall when i need too, hey you do what you have too, right?
I'm still very new at the dvd, cant finish the whole thing yet and i'm laid up with two pulled hamstrings but if i see results i will be purchasing more.

Let me know how you like whatever one you buy!
good luck!
kell

Overstock.com has quite a few of the Firm tapes at reasonable prices.
