Tugger please post your rotation when you get ready to start! I don't have the classics, but it will be nice to see what you come up with.

Firm Cardio is also one of the worst renames. It was never a Cardio workout even by the Firm's definition. That said, I consider almost all of the Firm's Cardio and Sculpt workouts to be AWT. The only ones I don't consider to be AWT are the workouts that don't use weights or are all floor work. Since I only do Firm workouts, I don't have a problem doing AWT back to back. I just alternate heavy weight workouts with light weight workouts.

I may have to post it when I'm done or at the end of each week. I don't do well with strict planning b/c life is too unpredictable whether it be my work schedule, an unexpected illness or just simply how my body is feeling from day to day. I also sometimes follow an 8 or 9 day "week" to fit it all in. I stopped beating myself up years ago trying to stick to carefully planned out rotations. How does my body know that a week is 7 days anyways, right?

The main difference between Firm Strength and Firm Cardio is that Firm Strength has supersets for upper body and lower body and Firm Cardio alternates between upper body and lower body causing "peripheral heart activity", which is why it was originally called StrongHeart.

Would you mind giving an example of the sequence of workouts you do? For example, what would a typical week be of back-to-back Firm AWT workouts? |

This month I'm doing the January specialty rotation on the Firm site which was designed by community leader Tonda. Last week was Slim & Trim, Tough Aerobic Mix, Bootcamp 3-in-1 Mix, Advanced Cardio Blast, Complete Body Sculpting, Skills, Drills & Thrills, and Rest.
However, I don't have most of the retail kits (packaged with the equipment) or most of the compilations from any era. So for me, last week was Ultimate Fat Burning Workout, Super Cardio Sculpt, Super Sculpting, Advanced Cardio Blast, Complete Body Sculpting, Cardio Burn and Rest. I realize that you all don't classify all of these as AWT, but I consider them all to be AWT except for Advanced Cardio Blast.
