Re: THE OFFICIAL TransFIRMer THREAD!
Posted by lovelybride
I just started with the firm.. did the sculpting DVD so far for 2 days.. and it is great.. I love it so far.. today is suppose to be my rest day, but I may need to do the next dvd today since I won't be in the house until late tomorrow.. so we'll see... I really like this system.. I think it's going to work for me.
SS is my favorite! I think because there's no "steps" to get down! ABS is good too. Easier to pick up than UCB.
I would seriously recommend resting today. Especially since your beginning. Your body needs the rest. If you can't do it tomorrow I would get back on track on Thursday.

Ok...I didn't FIRM today, but did manage to do 45 mins on the bike. I'm hoping to do SS tomorrow.
Everyone still FIRMing?!
I didn't do it today- my knee is KILLING me! I don't know what to do
Did you drop down to just using the 8 inch for the tall box climb? Also, make sure you're steping with your heel....
Do you normally have knee problems?
I just saw on the WW boards your post... you got AWESOME advice from Leigh! She's GREAT! She's actually one of the websites I posted above...and a fellow LIer!
She really gave me some great advice! I really want to do it today, but am going to ice it and take advil first and see how it feels. If it is still bothering me, I will wait.
I have a hard time with the concept of height not mattering with the tall box climb. In my mind, the shorter you or your legs are, the higher you have to climb and the more leg strength that is required. I really think I am going to have to knock it down a bit to the 8 inch box.
I have not had knee problems until recently (when I pushed myself with lunges one day with the Biggest Loser dvd.)
Thank You!

I agree...I found that one part a little strange....about the height not mattering. I would definitely knock it down to the inch and keep an eye on your form so you're not rocking or unsteady. I can do the 14 inch, but my form is very sloppy right now and I'm wobbling all over the place. I went back to the 8 and I think I'm getting a much better workout.
Also...push with your heels!

Okay, sounds like a plan..I'll fit it in tomorrow... is the next dvd longer than the Sculpting one.

I believe the next one on the Start-Up rotation would be ABS - Aerobic Body Shaping...it IS long. I believe close to an hour.

Right?! Normally I literally "shoo" DH into the bedroom because I do it in the living room, but I figured...eh...SS...I don't look like a complete idiot!
The others...Shoo Shoo

ABS is great!
Don't you feel sooo energized when you finished a workout? I LOVE that feeling.
I'm hoping to wake up extra early tomorrow for UCB...or else it'll have to wait until Sunday.

Re: THE OFFICIAL TransFIRMer THREAD!
Today was my first day! I did the sculpting and really liked it. I don't have weights yet, but I think it was a good transition doing it without weights.

It definitely is a good idea to start without weights. Getting the form down is key.

Here's some prayers for you... Keep the remote handy. It's ok if you rewind a few parts to get the steps down. I still keep that as my Saturday workout...
