The Firm Cross Trainers: Firm Strength delivers a challenging workout that is meant to used with other Firm workouts. For example, participants train one day with this video and the next day with Cross Trainers: Cardio. This variety can aid in keeping both the mind and body challenged while maintaining a well-rounded fitness regimen. Instructor Pam Cauthen leads this 50-minute workout as a strength-training program; however, cardio intervals have been added to enhance training effects. The splicing of aerobic and anaerobic exercise plays a key role in the overall effectiveness of this workout because the body is using multiple energy systems to fuel activity (this could mean greater potential for loss of fat and increase in strength). The major muscles of the upper and lower body are trained through practical exercises that are done with moderate repetition. The cueing comes quickly here and little information is given on correct form or safety concerns. First-time weightlifters may need to do some homework on form and proper body alignment before beginning. This program is ideal for intermediate participants or anyone who craves variety in their training regimen. You need a set of hand weights (3 to 8 pounds for women and 5 to 15 pounds for men) and an aerobic step (preferably a tall step and a short step). --Olivia Voigts

This is more of a glamour routing than anything else. Too busy -Greek/Roman statuettes in the background various sizes, huge fireplace, boring routine, and the participants' are so phoney. The instructor and the participants routine are more erotic than anything else. I couldn't bare doing the entire video. Oh and the music, too loud and didn't sync with the moves. This video had potential, if it wasn't for all that.
Now I know why I had it hidden for so many years behind my other ... Read More

Although this video and its companion, Firm Cardio, both bill themselves as including cardio and weights, they are both very heavy on weights, with a tiny bit of cardio mixed in. It is not a true "circuit training" type video where you do roughly equal amounts of strength and cardio training. Also, Firm Strength and Firm Cardio are both very heavy on legs (lunges, dips, leg press). They do some upper body also, but it seems like every few minutes the instructor is saying, "Prepare for lunges..."

Done alone, or teamed with "Firm Cardio", this is a fine Firm workout. This tape focuses a little more on the upper body, especially the triceps, but still includes great lower body segments. I never felt I had much upper body strength until I had been doing this workout and "Firm Cardio" for about two weeks. I saw more muscle definition in that time, but felt the results even sooner. It is a tough workout so I really feel a great sense of accomplishment after I finish it each time. It is good for ... Read More

I have been a loyal user of the Firm videos for over a year now. They are definitely not for the feint of heart because they are a challenging workout that doesn't get boring.
This viseo is no exception. It uses the same weight/aerobic mix as the other Firm videos, but this one is one of my all-time faves because of the instructor. Pam Cauthen is probably the best instructor ever at the firm. I like how calm she is and her voice never grates on my nerves. She cues well and, I don't know ... Read More

The instruction is fantastic and after doing the tape a few times, you'll look and feel better then ever! It's intense, but exciting. Definitly not of of thsoe workouts you can't wait till the end of. Make sure you get the compliment video, FIRM Cardio!

Cunard Line has announced that its new
85,000-ton cruise ship, which is scheduled to enter service in 2008, will be
named Queen Victoria. Based in Southampton, England, the Cunard Queen Victoria will be
the second largest Cunard Queen ever built. Together with the current flagship,
Queen Elizabeth 2, and Queen Mary 2, the biggest passenger liner ever, the
Cunard fleet will include three Queens for the first time – truly the most
famous ocean liners in the world.

Queen Victoria will enter service in the company’s 165th anniversary and will
operate cruises to and from Southampton to the Mediterranean, the Canaries,
Northern Europe, the Caribbean, and South America. The 1,968-passenger vessel
will feature a covered wraparound promenade deck, a forward-facing observation
lounge, a large Lido pool with a retractable magrodome, and 10 of the12
passenger decks will be served by exterior glass-walled lifts. Like QE2 and QM2,
the liner will have a Queens Grill, offering single-seating gourmet dining.
There will also be a unique Colonial Restaurant on Deck 11 with spectacular
panoramic views.
Queen Victoria cruises will offer a wide range of
accommodations, large standard outside cabins (170 square feet) and a high
percentage of balcony cabins (67%), thereby bringing new levels of luxury and
choice to passengers preferring to depart from a European port. Cruise

The on-board menus, entertainment and lecture program will be geared to British
tastes and the currency will be sterling. Queen Victoria will fly the red
ensign; she will have the name of her home port, Southampton, on her stern, and
she will have a British Captain and Officers.
In design terms the cruise Cunard Queen Victoria will have an undeniably British feel with two British design
teams being responsible for the interior of the Cunard Queen Victoria.
Queen Victoria is being built at Italy’s Fincantieri shipyard in Marghera, near
Venice, with her keel laid on July 12, 2003. One of the most technically
advanced shipbuilders in the world, Fincantieri has built more than 7,000
vessels, including many for Cunard’s parent Carnival Corporation. Originally
ordered as the fifth in a series of five 'Vista' class ships for sister company
Holland America, the contact was signed over to Cunard before the keel was laid
and Holland America then ordered a further ship for delivery in 2006.
Enjoy a Cruise on Queen Victoria. The
lead ship in the series, Zuiderdam, entered service in December 2002.
No cruise schedules have yet been
announced. Her float out is scheduled for May 2007, prior to
her delivery in March 2008.She is scheduled to enter service in April 2008. |
