A Firefighters Review.
First, I must state that I am not by any means out of shape. I am a professional dancer and instructor. I have even produced some instructional videos of my own. I am also an active volunteer Firefighter. So I know a thing or two about the process.
I got this video as a guide to working out after suffering an agonizing fire drill that made me realize I needed to build up my strength and endurance. As fit as I am, the muscle groups needed to haul hose and stay low are in conflict with the strong muscle groups I need to do other things.
Any non-firefighter who poorly reviews this video as being "too easy" either did not do it correctly or did not try.
As with ANY instructional video, you have to have some common sense and adapt the workout to your needs. Once you know the drill you MUST break away from the video and formulate your own regimen.
For example, in some exercises, I had to begin with 20 pound weights instead of the 5 and 10 pound weights used in the video.
Obviously, absolute beginners should start lighter. It would be negligent for the producers to assume the user can handle heavier weights. I liked that time was taken to discuss the "Basics" of working out (throughout the warm-up) Time that most workout video instructors often spend just "Babbling" or ceaseless counting to eight.
The exercises really are designed for firefighters. I can see laypeople having trouble understanding some of the exercises and skipping through them because they seem "too easy", But if you understood the practical applications for them, you would put more effort into making them challenging for yourself.
The poor reviews I see so far are due to the ignorance of the user.
As for production value, this video is just fine. Make that Better than fine. Its good.
I'm not sure what kinds of "bells and whistles" reviewers are seeking. But I can’t understand how bells and whistles could affect a good workout. Maybe thats why they did'nt get one.Lire l'avis complet...
Not very challenging...
If this were truly the workout that New York Fire Fighter's do, then they would all be out of shape and overweight. I know they are not and Capt Stefano must workout harder than this to stay as fit as he is! I kept waiting for the intensity to pick up.Lire l'avis complet...
