Firm Parts: 5-Day Abs offers five distinct workouts that train and strengthen the abdomen. A variety of instructors lead each segment and concentrate on specific areas of the torso. Crunches, reverse curls, and cross-lateral movements are presented in this uncomplicated format. All of the major muscles of the abdomen get attention here, including some great target toning for the obliques. Time-savvy exercisers will appreciate the quick and effective delivery of each set (ranging from six to nine minutes). Students have the option to do all five sets back-to back (36 minutes) or to complete one set for a quick fix. Firm Parts provides vital information on proper form while keeping the movements challenging. Beginners will learn about safely executing sit-ups in the informational segment at the start of this video. Several exercises are performed with the legs off the ground, and students with injured backs and necks may need to modify these moves. This brief but winning workout combines easy-to-follow moves with schedule conscious formats. Participants of all fitness levels will find a program that can tighten and strengthen the abdominals. Simply said: 5-Day Abs delivers crunches for the time-crunched. --Olivia Voigts

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Post-Baby Workout, January 28, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Firm - Firm Parts: 5-Day Abs (Classic Workout Series) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video helped me regain my flat stomach after giving birth to 2 babies in 20 months! I started the video about 6 weeks post-partum, and I saw results immediately. I started out with Day 5, which is the easiest workout, and kept repeating it every day until my abs were strong enough to do the rest of the tape. What really helped to lose the post-baby "pooch" was to do 2-3 of the workouts back-to-back.

5.0 out of 5 stars Results in 10 workouts, December 22, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Firm - Firm Parts: 5-Day Abs (Classic Workout Series) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The video keeps its promise of visisble results in ten workouts. I have been using this video for over a year now and I love it. It consists of five different workout ranging from six to nine minutes. I usually do Days 1-3, then take a day off. Then I continue with two more days and then another day off before I start over. Day 4 is VERY TOUGH, but it works. You will have strong abs. Throw in exercise and healthy eating and soon you'll have a nice, flat stomach. Love this tape. Everyone should own it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great variety! Effective workout!, August 1, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Firm - Firm Parts: 5-Day Abs (Classic Workout Series) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The variety in this tape keeps it interesting. It's the best short tape I've found for abs, especially the lower abdominals. There is not detailed instructions on positioning, however, so it may not be for those just beginning to work out.
