FIRM 90 Day rotation (Can someone share)
 
I have the 30-day rotation. That come with the kit I bought last month. I'm very interested in the 90-day rotation. Can someone share with me what it is like?

I just feel the 30-day is for when you first start. I don't think I should start it all over the next month (maybe I'm wrong) !?!

I have one version...
 
I don't know if this is the 90-day rotation; I believe I got it from the old Firm Forum. Is this what you are looking for?
