The Firm - Firm Basics: Sculpting With Weights [VHS] Overview
Strength, endurance, and good form come together in the Firm's Firm Basics: Sculpting with Weights. This informative workout packs 43 minutes of sweat-producing weightlifting, coupled with aerobic intervals. Instructor Tracie Long is inspirational as she demystifies strength training and body alignment throughout this total body workout. The major muscles of the upper and lower body are trained with lunges, pushups, and a variety of standards that pack fat-burning potential. These exercises are basic in application but still deliver a challenging interval session. Low-impact aerobics segments are simply choreographed and spliced between weightlifting sets. This combination of aerobic and anaerobic exercise creates a program that encourages both power and stamina. The cueing is concise and informative with tips on body alignment playing an important role. All participants will need hand weights, a step, and a dowel (a broom will work great) to perform this workout. Because the choreography is very basic, this is an ideal program for the first-time exerciser; however, more advanced fitness buffs will also find a relevant program that will deliver an effective sweat-packed session (just increase your hand-weight size with your skill level). --Olivia Voigts
