"what we are working on...-editing a mock dvd of The Firm V5: Abs, Hips, and Thighs to submit to Gaiam, so they can release the master. When Gaiam release the Master and approve of our mock, I will let you know to start pre-orders. So keep weights major crossed!!!! "

So keep your fingers crossed!

Thanks, Jo! I'm definitely keeping my fingers crossed for this one. It would be so nice to have the classics on DVD finally.

Me, too! So funny, because I was planning to convert this to DVD soon.

Years ago, Vol. 5 was one of my most-used videos. What is strange is that I never did the entire workout; instead, I would routinely tack on Vol. 5's aerobics section to other workouts. I couldn't get enough of it. I'm not sure what was so attractive about #5 -- the aerobic workout, the bright set, the cheerful music? Like Leslie Sansone workouts, Vol. 5 gave me an inexplicable "happy" vibe. I never could figure out why.

I wish they would transfer NSTAM and Cardio Burn over to DVD, too -- then my Firm collection would be complete. However, I'll stop complaining ... I'm so thrilled to have all the ones they * have * transferred!

Ok, just viewed the link and have to say: My Lord, how cheesy is that!

The Firm Classics are like that. Rather dated and cheesy looking but, wow, truly among the best workouts I've done (outside of kettlebells).

Vol. 5 is especially sneaky. As lame as it looks on that clip, it gave me great results. I was a serious runner in those days, routinely doing 2 hour daily workouts, when I was began tacking Vol. 5 onto my cardio workouts. I remember liking Vol. 5's aerobic section because it got my heartrate up without aggravating plantar fasciitis (which is ultimately why I had to give up running).

I forgot how tall LaReine Chabut was! As Firm instructors go, I never warmed up to LaReine. So strange in view of how often I did her workout.
