Denise Austin - 30 Minute Fat Burning Workout [VHS]

This is a reissue of a 1989 beginning-level workout featuring a young Denise Austin in a high-cut swimsuit-leotard trying to vitalize an uninspired low-impact aerobic routine. The endless repetitions of step-touches, marches, leg crosses, and lunges will burn fat, but will keep you watching the clock. Austin's class participants--one man and one women--are very good-looking but add no energy and often forget to smile. Austin cheerleads with incessant chatter, which is slightly better than the insipid music. The routine ends with a standing stretch, no floor work, nor work on the abdominal muscles. Pick up one of Austin's later workouts instead. --Joan Price
