If you are a woman looking for a fun, energetic workout to build muscle and sculpt your body, you’ll love the TransFIRMer workout series from The FIRM. I know I do! I first saw the product on an infomercial, and I thought the workouts looked fun and challenging, so I gave it a try.

The TransFIRMer unit is extremely sturdy and easy to put in different positions. You can use this piece of equipment with older FIRM workouts as well. The smaller piece of the unit fits in the larger piece for storage, which is nice.

As far as the workouts go, they are all challenging but completely doable. They are not so challenging that you will be discouraged, but they are challenging enough where you will see results. The instructors offer different modifications so you can tailor the workout to your fitness level. I started with the more beginner moves, and now I can do all the additional arm movements. The music in the workouts is great, and the instructors are all very enthusiastic and fun!

The main “con” of these workouts is that they require a fairly large piece of equipment, as well as small weights which you will want to purchase yourself. Also, if you are a beginner, they may seem a little overwhelming. The instructors move at a fairly quick pace, so until you get used to their lingo you might feel a little lost.

Overall, though, the "pros" of the TransFIRMer system far outweigh the "cons". It is a fun, challenging and effective workout series. If you use the workouts consistently, you’ll definitely see results. This is probably not something most men would like, but I would definitely recommend it to women.
