Great Form and Function Therapy Session!
I ordered this kit for myself and also my spouse. I needed some good stretching workouts without all the yoga; I have some issues with my knees he is getting some back issues. The first tape for the back was really good because the instructor does go over the muscles and how to strengthen them and I loved the way she mentioned to do some exercises before the others. I will follow the exercises in a sequence. I only gave the four stars because the arm stretches. I did not have a wall to do them on and wished some stretches were shown that you could do without a wall. I found a wall downstair and the stretches really do open up. I even did the side stretch correctly and one shoulder was higher than the other. I reviewed the core tonight and found that there is a way to exercise the core and not to use the transverse abdominal muscle and overwork it. I was so glad to have this information correctly, as I was tired of the Y because I was getting so many instructors that did not know how to accurately stretch the body, and ligaments, I know enough about YOGA to know that they were not doing a good sequence flow, and was just doing what they felt like doing. Lie swinging a kettle ball all around.  So I dropped out and found these tapes, will work with these at home. Now I understand how I can hold in my gut 24/7 like their name states.<br />  Also, many of my hubby yoga instructors tend to not do poses correctly and do not explain them correctly, I actually learned some new tools, that I will remember like not over flexing the torso area when doing the cat pose. These tapes will teach some things to make a pilates or yoga session more successful.<br />The tapes have some lessons and instructions, and then the workouts. I would recommend this tape for anyone who needs to learn and understand proper form and function of the joints and ligaments. It is not a high impact workout. It seems slow, but the workout is about 30 minutes for each tape. And it is relaxing enough, you could use the tape as a stress reduction session. I would like to see an advanced tape putting a total body package workout together so that I can have a total body stretch tape at home.
