Audience Rating: NR (Not Rated) Binding: DVD EAN: 0634991139021 Format: Color, DVD-Video, NTSC Label: Studio Works Languages: Manufacturer: Studio Works Number Of Items: 1 Publisher: Studio Works Region Code: 1 Release Date: January 07, 2003 Running Time: 40 minutes Studio: Studio Works Theatrical Release Date: 2003 Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Learn the basics of low-weight, high-repetition strength training with Hollywood trainer Jake. In this 40-minute video, Jake instructs carefully and comprehensively while a young, fit, female exerciser demonstrates each exercise. The clear instruction is aimed at beginning level, with exercises for all major muscle groups. This is an instructional guide rather than a workout--if you want to use it as a workout, pause the DVD to complete your reps before going on to the next exercise. You'll need dumbbells, a barbell, and an adjustable weight bench with leg curl and leg extension (all the items in the Body by Jake equipment set). Since no alternatives are shown (e.g., dumbbells instead of barbell for several appropriate exercises), this DVD seems more appropriate as an instructional guide for working out with the Body by Jake equipment (or equivalent) rather than for general weight training at home. --Joan Price Description: Body By Jake-Strength Training 101 for Women is geared for women of all ages and is designed to give them confidence with weights and strength training both at home and in the gym. It teaches the proper technique, form and vocabulary while working all areas of the body including legs, glutes, back, abdominals, chest and arms. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Great Way To Get Started In Weight LiftingThis a very informative video. Jake walks you through each procedure and lets you know which muscle is being worked and shows you the proper lifting technique. There are no jerky moves. I'd always wanted to use my workbench and weight bar, but was scared I'd use it improperly and do more damage then good. This tape has definitely been a great help. I enjoy working out in my home gym and most of his tapes/DVD's have a program to follow along with. This one doesn't. It shows how to perform a ... Read More Rating:  - Best Strength Training Tape For Beginners on the MarketI pre-ordered the VHS tape back in early December. I received it a few days ago. I am totally impressed. I have a weight bench, dumb-bells, a bar and a heavier weight set at home. I use my light weight dumb-bells all of the time, but I always wanted to use my work bench and heavier weights for sculpting, but was afraid of hurting myself from improper form. This tape makes it so simple. Jake walks you through each procedure and explains exactly which muscles are being worked. Most tapes perform ... Read More Rating: - Body by Jake Strength Training 101I found this dvd to be extremely valuable when it comes to learning how to use weights. Jake's instruction is clear and very helpful. I was always nervous about using weights at the gym, now I have enough confidence to give it a try. I always wanted to use weights at home, but I never knew what I needed. Now I do. I know how much to lift, how many times and the best part is now I know how to sculpt the body I have always wanted. |
