Summary: Great workout for all levels!
Comment: This tape may be from 1987 but it's functional for the future and beyond!
I used to work out with this tape years ago, borrowing it from the library. I absolutely loved how Dan and Jane warned about pain and had alternatives to using weights in certain workouts, because even though you're not using a weight, you still are working out your body. Sometimes they're a little silly in their workout, making noises like, "Woo!" but it makes you laugh and relax, have a good time, and you're not stressed out about having to exercise. Class 1 is a great startup for working out and yes, Class II has the dreaded pushups and squats, but once you start doing them, Jane and Dan make sure your body is your reward! I also enjoyed the music, being upbeat and inspirational, with relaxing piano during the stretch. Both had soothing voices and encouraging messages.
I'm so glad I was able to find this tape, I don't have to borrow it anymore cause I own it! Buy this tape and feel the burn (but make sure it doesn't hurt too much!)

Summary: Fanastic Weight Workout
Comment: I love this weight workout. I used to do this 14 years ago religiously, but then I quit doing it for many years. I just started using it again and it feels like I found a long lost friend. It is a great all around workout. You can get a whole body workout in 45 mins. You can't go wrong because they are always telling you the right way to execute the move. I do the first one, then the second one another day, then rewind the tape and start over again. I love the exercise for the quads where you lift and flex. When you get done with that one, you really feel it. The only thing is I don't have the ankle weights, so I just do them without. Do this tape 2-3 times a week and you will get stronger and shaplier. I LOVE it!!!

Summary: Sufficient workout with weights!
Comment: Jane Fonda's Toning and Shaping video is actually a 1987 workout previously called "Working out with Weights." The package was redesigned in 1993. The trainer is Dan Isaccson. He and Jane repeatedly warn you that if you can't do this or that because of pain, choose an alternative or don't do it. There are sufficient "15 sec. breaks" in between the lifting of weights. Plus there is intermittent stretching, instead of waiting til the end to stretch.
The 85 minute video is structured in two segments, class I , 45- minute beginner intermediate and Class II, a 40 minute intermediate/advanced
A bench is needed. The pamphlet suggests a picnic bench, good idea! Ankle weights and dumbbells are also used. Displayed on the screen are the weight sizes they use. At times you will see one of the people working on the floor as opposed to being on a bench. Each time the trainer or Jane goes into a new exercise, they inform us which muscle you are working.
Focused here are hamstring curls, arm curls, lateral raises, triceps curl, pelvic thrusts, abdominal crunch. The armwork is similar to leg work, work on one arm, shift to the other, back and forth.
Class II focuses on about the same as Class I, but there are those dreaded lunges, squats, and pushups. It is easy to wind your tape to get to the 2nd part of the tape if you need. It is certainly a good workout tape. .....MzRizz
