The Firm - Firm Parts: Tough Tape (Classic Workout Series) [VHS]

The Firm - Firm Parts: Tough Tape (Classic Workout Series) [VHS] Review



This is an excellent muscle-endurance workout, full of challenges and variety. Instructor Tracie Long is superb, cueing seamlessly while giving plenty of technique tips and modifications to make the moves easier or more difficult. There's no annoying pep talk, whooping, or counting--just straightforward instruction to make your workout more effective. This 45-minute weight workout switches constantly between lower and upper body (sometimes doing both at once). Long sensibly gives stretches every so often to relieve muscle tightness. You'll need a barbell, an assortment of free weights, and a tall (12- to 14-inch) step or equivalent. The tape box and introduction claim that this workout includes a 26-minute high-intensity sequence, but this 45-minute tape did not have a cardio sequence. No abdominal routine, either. Although the routine ends with the words "more to come," the only "more" was a long commercial. --Joan Price

How Its Parts Work Together: Our Wonderful Body (Home Use)

How Its Parts Work Together: Our Wonderful Body (Home Use) Review



At the same time that people breathe, they also digest food, circulate blood, move, think, and do so much more. But how? As space explorer Zork discovers, one system directs all the parts of the human body - the nervous system, which consists of the brain, spinal cord, and a vast network of nerves and sensory receptors. Though composed of cells like everything else in the body, the nervous system allows humans to perform uncountable conscious and unconscious acts at the same time. This animated adventure teaches youngsters how the body senses internal and external stimuli. It also shows them where the brain, spinal cord and nerves are located, how they function, and what they look like.

Part of the animated series "Our Wonderful Body", featuring Zork, a space creature with a very inquisitive mind and a talent for getting into humorous situations. Fascinated by human beings, Zork wants to know how people breathe, move and grow. He wants to understand how their hearts work and how they digest their food. Often, his inquisitive nature leads him to wrong conclusions and comical misunderstandings, all of which captivate young audiences and make it more fun to learn about the human body. Produced by Christianson Productions, Inc. A Coronet release.
