Certified instructor description: An easy-to-follow interval workout that maximizes results with intensified versions of simple exercises (no dumbbells required; the workout is “weightless”). But it’s definitely not for beginners. Tracie uses your own body weight plus high reps, wide ranging motions and challenging positions to amplify every movement (e.g. rapid pulsed planks, squats that start on your knees, push-ups with your elbows next to your body). The cardio segments are equally tough — higher-impact jumping jacks, split squat jumps and “jump squats with a half turn.” Clear, very precise cuing. In summary: it’s an effective, well-planned program that doesn’t require lots of “thinking.” ©2011. DVD has: Chapter menus, Wide screen.

Tracie Long's Focus: Weightless

A winner!!
This and Breakthrough pack a ton in in 30 minutes. The music was great and the tunes changed up quite often. Loved the prisoner squats. Lot's of unique moves and typical of Tracie, no death by reps. Very aerobic and lots of strength moves, also. Even the stretching had strength incorporated. - posted by RuthNYC on 5/7/2012

I did not like this video because the aerobic segments were not long enough. The video was to chopped up for me, and I felt it wasn't for me. - posted by Suzan on 1/19/2012
Nice, but not super hard
I enjoyed this workout - not too jumpy, not too fast. It does have pushups and squats, and I did feel some burn. Do not expect it to replace a lifting day at the gym, though. If you do not already to 230 on the leg press, you could be really challenged. For me, it's more of an aerobic workout with some resistance thrown in for fun. - posted by Diane on 10/21/2011
So-so
Tracie Long is a great instructor and her moves are effective. In just 30 minutes, she gets you to sweat and get a total body workout without weights, step or ball to drag around. But there is something missing. I do not like the music, and the workout just does not seem to "flow" and be enjoyable. - posted by Madeleine on 9/30/2011

Tracie kicks it up a notch - this is a great calorie burn in a short amount of time. I have no problem with the cueing. - posted by LoriInND on 8/11/2011
Terrific - Good Workout!
Great workout for only 30 minutes. Highly recommend this workout for intermediate/advanced. Well worth it! - posted by Gwenyth on 6/5/2011
Love it!
I took this workout (along with Tracie's Breakthrough and a small med ball) on a trip last week, and it is a perfect workout to travel with! I am glad that I had already done the workout several times at home, because the moves are a bit tricky at first. But once you are used to them, the workout is fun and the time flies by! Tracie balances intense moves with brief periods of rest, and uses very unique moves to tone the lower body. Even the upper body moves were not predictable - I was expecting tons of push-ups, and there was only one set (thank goodness!). This workout is a definite keeper. - posted by Jane on 4/5/2011
Home-video-exerciser for 25+ years
This is tougher than you'd think. I was sweating within 15 minutes and got a thorough workout. Tracie does a good job working your muscles in a variety of moves. - posted by Gwen on 4/3/2011
Super Fun--a Keeper!
I loved this dvd!! It was just so much fun. I like the concept too. It has great cardio with plyo bursts in it and fun toning moves that keep your heartrate up. Tracie is easy to follow and I thought the music was really good. I sure hope she keeps them coming! - posted by Shelley on 3/21/2011
Good but could be better
I liked this workout for days when you're short on time and don't want to drag out a ton of equipment. As the other reviewer said the queuing could be better but I've found that all the former and present Firm instructors have the problem of queuing the moves as they're doing them. The queuing aside I like the variety of unique moves and getting an aerobic and toning workout without equipment in a short amount of time. - posted by Lu on 3/16/2011
Reading a Time Graph
X
Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.
sample time graph
Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.

Chapter menus
X
You can play only the individual workout segments you want by picking them off a chapter menu (one at a time).
Wide screen
X
The program fully fills a wide-screen television screen. Note: These videos will display black bars at the top and bottom on a traditional 4 x 3 ratio TV screen.
Level
X
Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.

Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).

Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.

Aerobics impact
X
Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.

Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.

Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.

Aerobics choreography
X
Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.

Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.

Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.

Toning emphasis
X
Upper body: Arms, chest and back.

Lower Body: Legs, thighs, hips and buttocks.

Abs: Abdominals (stomach), core and sometimes lower back.

Total body: Tones all three of the above muscle groups.

Floor aerobics & toning
X
Definition: Includes two workout activities. The aerobics segments are fast-paced standing movements like marching, dancing and jumping. These segments require no equipment. The toning sections are slow, controlled movements working against a resistance. These may include Pilates and weight training.

Benefits: The combination of both activities provides a balanced workout. The aerobics burns calories, strengthens your heart and increases stamina. The toning builds lean muscles, increases your metabolism and makes everyday activities easier.
