It's body warfare. Pure and simple. These young individuals are seriously driven athletes who want to win. Bad. Narrated by Louis Gossett Jr., the video interviews trainers, parents, and athletes like Carl Lewis (track & field), Meng Fi (gymnast), and Mary Pierce (tennis) and shows footage of training camps, and performance/competitions. Unfortunately, the program lacks a compelling narrative story, and we never really understand what drives these individuals to strive for such perfection. An optional buy. Aud: J, H, P. (N. Plympton)
