JUMP START

This single cassette describes a 21-day plan to a new life, including relationships, fitness and nutrition. Although Austin is enthusiastic and energetic, this tape is irritating, repetitive and annoyingly trite. Daily calorie and fat allowances are repeated too many times. She brightly recommends positive thinking as the secret to her success. In attempting to be peppy, the recording actually sounds nasal and whiny. While the fitness and health information presented is sound, Austin should stick with her video/television format. A.G.H. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: JAN 98]
