Hart is the best instructor, and she does it again with this great workout. I used my body bar, but might try it with her Core Bar. you can also use hand weights/dumbbelss, so anyone can do this. It is very chanllenging, but not overly advanced. It seems you can also be a beginner and build up your strenght. i loved the routine and love anything Hart produces. The other video that is with this series, Chsisel, is great, I suggest getting both of them to firm up and burn fat.

i love my CORE BAR. it is the bet weight training tool I have ever used. It is a great quality wieght training tool, and it is effectively used in this workout video. The Body Bars i have do not compare to this, the CORE BAR is GREAT. The Burn FitToTheCore video is a far out cardio cross-training workout where Leisa' fuses or blends a great tempo of weight training moves with some Pilates and Core Training weight training moves. I LOVE THIS WORKOUT.

Leisa Hart is a very fit trainer, and her style of strenght training the Core muscles is very effectively toning my arms and abs and back and I feel as strong as I did 15 years ago in college when i trained daily. This is a great video you can do with any kind of free weights or dummbells or a body bar or her Core Bar(which is the best one and is sold at her site). I love Leisa Hart;s teaching style and highly recommend this and the Chisel video, as well as her other new video Gym In A Box,they are all great workouts.

FTC Burn is similar to the Chisel video, but it is more fast paced and a cardio routine mixed with Leisa Hart's really great Core Bar. THis is a neat way to incorporate weights into a fitness routine. At first i didn't think the moves were hard enough, but the balancing and conditioning with the Core Bar is really really effective. I can see the definition in my legs that wasn;t there before this workout. My arms are toned and my abs feel this, although i don't think the abs are the main selling point, but then again, the abs are part of the core muscles, thus the name, and you really use your abs and back to stay strong and focused. This is a great workout that gets easier to follow and really is a great workout. Leisa Hart's Core Bar is simple to use, and well worth it; it's better than a body bar and is comfortable to use and easy to adjust. I suggest you get it at her site(amazon doesn't carry it yet). This is a definite 5 Star workout and I think anyone would like Leisa Hart's style, very pleasant and effective.

I Love This Video! I did a simialr review for the CHISEL video, which I think you need to get also. Leisa Hart is my role model in fitness, she looks so great for having two small babies. I adore her style of isntruction, she is so motivating. FitToTheCore Chisel is a great strenght training video and BURN is so good with the additional cardio, my heart rate gets up and I sweat off so serious sweat; this video combines elements of core training with Leisa's wighted bar is so unique and effective. I alternate using hand wieghts one day and her bar the next time, and it is great. I see the result, my hubbie is seeing the results when I undress, he claims my body is more fit than ever, and I agree, and it's because of the way i feel doing Leisa Hart's videos. THANKS LEISA!

really enjoyed this workout, i love all of Leisa Hart's Buns of Steel videos and now love being re-connected with her as her videos are even better and more modern, yet still traditional and fun. This is a great workout!

FitToTheCore BURN is one of the better fitness videos my wife and I have tried this year. Leisa Hart is an excellent leader, she is strong and lean, what my wife aspires to look like, and she is looking better by the week. The strenght moves in the CHISEL video are just as good in this fat burning cardio typr tape. Its not a step tape, so don't fret, the moves are not complex, they are simple to learn. Working out with Leisa Hart is great, we love this workout.

i wa not sure how much of this i could do after just getting back into high gear with my post pregnancy workouts, but i find this bar workout to be very very good. the toning moves are intense, i did not use weights at first, then added 1 and 2 lb dumbbells, but i really want to get leisa harts core bar, she sells it at her site leisahart.com, i wish amazon had it, but oh well, it looks very good and you can take it apart pretty easily. these toning moves are not complex, she does modifications between the bar and free wieghts, and it goes at a pace that is apparently easy to increase, although right now i am getting more than i bargained for. this is a great tape, and so is the chisel video....although this tape is a fat burning BURN tape, you still get pretty good muscle toning, i loved it....i actually have some mini terminator biceps starting to form, the flab is starting to melt away finally.

you know you have gotten a great workout when you major muscles are sore the next day or so....the bar workout was excellent, a little more than beginner level for me, maybe intermediate, but i changed the weight level with different body bars i own, and i loved it...it is worth the time and money to get a body bar or leisa's core bar(seems really neat that you can changes the end pieces on her bar to add or decrease the weight with a snap), i think hand weights can work, a model was using them, but the bar seems best. This is a very good workout and needs to be inserted into your fitness rotation.

this is a very good workout, i used hadn weights and thought that the modifications were easy to follow, the instructor is very pleasant and motivating.
