 too corny August 18, 2002
10 out of 21 found this review helpful
This video is composed of 6 mins. warm up, 35 mins. aerobics, and 10 mins. cool down.
Overall, I found this workout to be too corny. By reading the reviews, I thought I could get past it. I did a good job except when I got to the "hoe-down" part. You do this weird hobo looking move and you have to clap twice everytime with the music. I did the move, but didn't clap.
There was also this weird man who was purposely trying to be dorky. He was supposedly the "new" guy in class.
Anyway, I found the workout to be okay. I'm really out of shape so I was really sweating by the middle of the workout.
Maybe it's because I'm not really into aerobic workouts, but I only gave this video 3 stars because it recycled the moves alot. There was variation in the beginning, but the same moves get used later with a different song, and yet again with another different song.
Jane's cues were okay. I didn't get how to do some moves the first time, but pretty much knew them by the third time. However, sometimes she misses cues. For example, when you do the grapevine, she doesn't tell you whether to kick or heel everytime; instead, she just nods her head and smiles at you, as if you're supposed to just know.
Overall, I give this video a C+
 The very best low impact but fat burning workout! August 16, 2002

This is the best workout for people who want to lose weight, feel good and want a workout that works! Remember consistency is important. This workout helps you workout without straining your muscles. You like it so much that you want to do the workout 4-5 times a week. This in turn helps you lose weight. I lost the weight I added on after I had my baby. I love it.
I really, really love this video! August 9, 2002

I've tried a bunch of tapes, and I keep coming back to this one. For a good, whole-body aerobic workout that really is low-impact (but HIGH intensity!), you just cannot beat it. And, if you actually DO it with some regularity, the results are there. Nothing works if you don't do it enough -- but I've seen the difference in my shape when I actually stick to a workout, and this video is the ONLY one that I've seen that kind of results from.I've tried other Jane Fonda workouts, too -- my other favorites would be the Complete Workout and the Yoga Workout. I'm looking forward to trying Stress Reduction Workout in the near future, too, as something to add to my 'rotation'. But I'll ALWAYS rotate back to this old favorite!
Won't soon tire of this one! January 15, 2002

I am new to aerobics, and of the videos I have tried this is my favorite. I have problems with my joints some and this tape never causes me any discomfort but is still a great workout. The music changes throughout and there is great variety to the moves. It tooks me a few times to get all the different moves down...but that is one of the things I like best about this video. It is not boring! Jane does a great job giving cues, so once you've done the video a few times it is great fun. There is also a relaxing stretch segment at the end!
Good Upper Body Workout September 27, 2001

Great workout because of adding wrist weights. Gives the upper body a real workout. Very easy to keep up with and a great workout in its own right.
