fitprime and kickbutt workouts

[rachelg]

This question is for anyone that has used the fitprime and/or kickbutt w/os from the women fitness and health network. They are created by the same people that did the firm w/os. I have used the firm in the past and they are not challenging enough for me. How does the fitprime and kickbutt w/os compare to the firm? are they similar or more challenging?

I have not done the new Fitprime workouts, but I have done the old ones that were produced by Tracey Long (choreographed by Anna Benson). The old ones provide a good workout, but the sets, lighting and video are terrible.

The newer workouts (they are the same old workouts, just with new instructors and a new set) seem much nicer. I would recommend those. You could probably get a good deal on ebay.

I have the entire set of 12 Fitprime and Kickbutt workouts. Some of them I have used once or twice, and most of them I have not done at all (I've previewed all of them). They are simply not challenging enough - I ordered them before I discovered Cathe, and now that I've been working out with Cathe for several months, I can't see myself getting any benefit from the Fitprime/Kickbutt workouts. I think they are even easier than the Firm. What I DO like about them is the beautiful set (very colorful) and the music.

If you think the Firm is not challenging enough, then you will feel the same way about these workouts. They are what I would consider intermediate level. Just my 2 cents.

I have all twelve as well and though they are not as challenging as Cathe, they do have a place. I feel very flexible and stretched after doing these. And am even pleasantly sore in some areas the next day. The production value has set a new standard IMO. They are beautifully done and the music is great. Very old Firm style with a new song for every exercise done. You can preview clips over at WHFN.

The negative about these for me, is they all seem to be too much the same. I've put most of mine up for trade and kept just a few. Also, Anna is suppose to be coming out with a compilation dvd of these.

Thank you so much for your imput i guess I really do not need to spend the money on these workouts especially now that Cathe came out with the new ones.
