The get-on-track plan of attack

How it works This program provides a solid foundation of strength, balance and flexibility. Phase I's machine-based strength moves help you learn proper form and allow you to lift more weight sooner for rapid results. Phase II's strength moves require more balance, coordination and concentration for an added challenge. The balance and stretch exercises train your muscles to work in concert and aid in injury prevention, so your new exercise streak won't wane.
