Categories: Upper Body Strength


This tape consists of upper body work (arms, chest, back) compiled from the original Firm volumes 1-4, and 6. It is a well organized workout; while it's a solid half hour of weight lifting, you don't work the same muscle group more than once in a row. The exercises alternate muscle groups: biceps, triceps, shoulders, delts, chest, back, etc., and each muscle group is worked 2-3 times throughout the tape. Sometimes the different muscles are mixed together in a set, i.e., a set might consist of alternating delt flies; bicep curls, and military presses. While I was skeptical at first about a workout structured in this way (as opposed to working one muscle group at a time to fatigue), I must admit that after doing weight training using the Firm tapes, my arms have more definition than they ever did from training the other way. This tape is definitely on my highly recommended list.
