 A solid traditional tough workout! January 29, 2005

Before Jane Fonda got America to its feet with exercise-in-your- home videotape series, the only serious participants were dancers, athletes or the very experienced exercisers.
In this video, her core exercise group seems to be those very fit and trim people who had exercised to sustain their body for their profession.
It is very clear to say that Jane Fonda's early videos, like this one, Complete Workout, Easy Workout, Prime Time Fitness, Workout With Weights, and the tough Jane Fonda Challenge Workout are all very good workouts. These were done prior to the massive surge of competition that flooded the market, where everybody sold an exercise video.
Hence, Fonda's later videos suffered in quality! Those being: Lean Routine, Step Workout, Lower Body Solution, etc.
The Baby of 'em All
This 1982 classic video is the baby of 'em all. The video comes in two sections, Beginners - 30 minutes and Advanced - 60 minutes.
In her warm-up, she even does jumping jacks also with great stretching routines, and you will see movements that today's exercise gurus don't do anymore. If you are new to exercising, you will feel the pain.
The basis of this workout is certain repetitive movements that focus on single muscle groups against the resistence of your own body weight.
Fonda works with every part of the body, from deep stretching to great waist work, grueling crunches, tendon stretches and serious deep lunges. She uses repetitive counts for each segment. At times, her voice overdubs the program to give advice and offer proper techniques while working out.
This is a tough workout, and if you are serious for strenuous workouts, and if you desire to improving your fitness regime, do this workout. And get the companion book "Jane Fonda Workout Book"
Then, try the Jane Fonda Challenge Workout, it has a very challenging aerobic section that is even tougher. .....MzRizz
GREAT FULL BODY WORKOUT July 14, 2005

I had been trying to get this video for a long time and I finally found a copy at a fair price in good condition. I have read all the reviews of JANE FONDA WORKOUTS and I felt I just had to have this to add to my other tapes(NEW WORKOUT, EASY GOING,COMPLETE,CHALLENGE AND START UP).
This video has two workouts, beginner and advanced. The beginner is 30 minutes and the advanced is 55 minutes. Each workout begins with a vigourous warmup followed immediatey by arms,waist,cardio exercises. Then follows with a substantial abs, hip ,leg ,and butt exercises plus a cooldown.
The beginner workout is good and really warms and streches your body, for me it is not enough I would follow with weights or more cardio. However the advanced workout is still a challenge and I like that one best. I have found that one of the really good factors to this and other JANE FONDA WORKOUTS is the streching, it really limbers you up and helps to create long lean muscles. And the exercises are done in a way to maxamize your calorie buring potential.
However a word of note, do not expect a full cardio workout like that of other tapes. This cardio workout is really short. It is more about toning using your body as resistance. Becareful with some of the moves and streches it is possible to injure yourself if anything feels wrong just modify it to something you are accustomed to. One of the things I really like about these workouts are that they really keep you coming back. As an instructer Jane Fonda is really positive and upbeat but not in an annoying way. I have really improved my cardiovascular health doing Jane Fonda videos something I was never abel to do with other newer tapes, I do not know what it is, but I love these tapes. I wish they were all on DVD!
The Best Jane Fonda Workout EVER!!! December 26, 2004

This video includes two different workouts: Beginners: 30 minutes and Advanced: 60 minutes.
The back of the video reads:
"My workout is designed to build strength, develop flexibility and increase endurance. To get the full benefit from the workout you must do it with me from beginning to end without stopping. It is this vigorous and sustained use of your entire body that will not only tone your muscles but will burn up calories, improve your circulation, eliminate toxins and strengthen your heart and lungs.
"The basis of the workout is the repitition of certain movements that use a single muscle group against the resistance of your own body weight. The repititions are followed by stretches to develop flexibility and keep your muscles long...."
Jane Fonda Workouts are the BEST!!!!!!!!! April 16, 2005

I did this workout in the 80's. I purchased the book (which I still have) and the cassette (which is worn out). I am so glad that I've found the video. I have most of her workout videos and the ones I don't have I'm looking to purchase. I've tried lots of other workout videos and I always go back to Jane's. For me, they are far better in quality, technique, and instruction. Jane is engaging, she makes me feel like she really cares how I'm doing. Whether it's true or not is irrelevant, it makes me want to work harder and finish. That, to me, is a powerful motivator. When she says, "talk to me" I do! lol
For my money there's nothing out there better.
P.S. When are they going to be available on DVD!!!!!
 Not a SAFE tape to do October 28, 2004

Janes does many streches and she BOUNCES. Thats a no-no these days. Now a days, its static stretches that are in. The aerobics portion is maybe 3 minutes, in beginner and advanced classes. The arm work uses no weights and mainly works your shoulders. The ab routine is probly the only good part of the tape. Dont waste your time trying to find this tape.
there are many better tapes out there.
