Author: Guest As Lisa Kay says, "We have 30 minutes to shape your legs!"
This video definitely accomplishes that. You work your
legs and butt with all the traditional moves, squats, lunges,
dips and leg press. There is also calf work included in this
video which is nice as it is often excluded. There are a couple
short cardio segments in between exercises which elevate or keep the heart rate elevated and still work the legs.
Lisa Kay leads the workout with her fellow master instructors
and does a nice job. As always you will need a fanny lifter
and assorted dumbells, this workout is great for strengthening
the lower body.

Author: Guest This is a 30 minute lower body sculpting workout led by Lisa Kay, one of my favorite Firm instructors. To do this workout, you need a range of dumbbells such as 5 and 8 pounds. You also need the Firm's FannyLifter, which is 14" step made up of 6" and 8" segments. If you don't have the FannyLifter, you will need a sturdy step of some kind.
The workout consists of a variety of classic lower body strengthening moves. You will do many leg presses, the Firm's signature move, some with tempo variations. Lunges, dips and squats are combined with an emphasis on the calf. There are two aerobic "break" segments. In other Firm sculpting videos, such as Total Sculpt with Abs, the aerobic segments are welcome breaks that give you a little rest while keeping your heart rate up there. Not so in Lower Body Sculpt I. The aerobic segments target the same muscles you were just working with weights, so it intensifies the sculpting effect.
This is definitely a worthwhile purchase if you want to focus on sculpting your lower body. I recommend purchasing Upper Body Sculpt as well so you can tone your entire body.

Author: Guest "Fast & Firm Lower Body Sculpt 1" was originally part of the Body Sculpting System 1 6-pack of add-on videos. It uses the Fanny Lifter and three pairs of dumbbells--they generally recommend 3, 5, and 8 pound dumbbells.
I really feel like this video takes shows off some of the trademark Firm moves in a superior fashion. You haven't experienced the leg press until you've done what feels like eleventy zillion of them in this workout. Lisa also does sets of modified dips that she calls "curtsey dips," which have you holding weights and curtseying--they will make you feel the muscles in your hips in a serious way! Once you get stronger, this workout really benefits from "heavying up" in places. When I really want to feel the burn, I'll do a set or two of leg presses and squats with 15 pounders when Lisa Kay calls for heavy dumbbells.
Some people complain about workouts from the Body Sculpting System 1 being boring--plain, uninteresting sets, boring choreography, etc etc. The sets are plain, and I would describe the choreography throughout the series as "utilitarian," but I think it works to the viewer's advantage, especially in LBS1. The modifier for beginners is easy to see and follow, the exercises are simple but effective, and the user doesn't get distracted by complicated footwork or strange camera angles and lighting.
This is an awesome lower body workout and really stands on its own among the other BSS1 workouts. If you really want to work the muscles in your lower body and feel it for awhile afterwards, Lower Body Sculpt 1 will do the job.

Author: Guest Looking for a Video that has lower body and a little bit of cardio? This is it.. I have been working out and I usually do weight training in the gym. When I did this video I was happy to see that I was sore the next day.. Great video for those just starting out.. Make sure you have the fanny lifter (or step) and the stick that you have to use.. Most of the frim DVD require those..

Author: Guest I purchased this DVD in the original Super Sculpting Six Pack by the FIRM. I was immediately impressed with it. For only thirty minutes, it most certainly will reshape your lower body.Squats, leg press, plies, lunges, and dips are all here. The three big super sets of weight training are complete- this even gets the calves, a muscle group missed in pre-2001 FIRM workouts. The pace is kept interesting by the two short aerobic bursts in the middle. Lisa Kay leads the video. She is an upbeat and motivating instructor with great cueing. The music is cool. The warm up and ending stretches are sufficient. You can't go wrong. It's a great workout! KITKA
