5-0 out of 5 stars We need this one on DVD!
This is one of my favorite Jane Fonda workouts. It's fun, it's effective, and if you have old injuries as I do, it probably won't aggravate them in the same way a high impact class would.
4-0 out of 5 stars low impact workout for those who need light workout
This workout begins with a eight minute warmup leads into a 35 minute low impact aerobic workout ends with an additional ten minute cool down.I read all the reviews of this workout before I bought a copy and most of the reviews were favorable.This is a steady low impact workout with very little stress to the joints.The video requires optional equipment of wrist weights. I have to say this video had some corny aspects to it, in particular the "new guy".The video could have done without that it was kind of silly.Other than that the guy did not bother me to much. This not one of my favorite workouts it is an okay workout.I like to use it as a warmup to one of my other Jane Fonda Workout tapes like workout with weights, complete workout, new workout or easy going workout.I have to say if I were going to truly reccomend a low impact video that is still a challenge I would recommend the complete workout.The music and chreography is better plus you have the option of really pushing yourself.

5-0 out of 5 stars Can't be exercise, it's fun!
Exercise has always been a dreaded word around me; until recently when I failed a stress test at 45 years old.I knew I had to do something.High impact aerobics always results in shin splints on me, so I was looking for something that would give me a good cardiovascular work-out, hold my interest, and not cause stress injuries.Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars "Disco Sweat" your fat off!
hey everyone!
5-0 out of 5 stars Best Workout Ever!!!
I LOVE this workout series. I have owned Disco Sweat from the first time it hit the TV order circuit when I was a kid and I loved doing it then because it was dance and it was music that I loved to listen to.When I found my OLD VHS version about a week ago I started working it again and was surprised that I remembered most of the moves. I think the wonderful thing about this workout is that there isn't a lot of talking and explaining during the routine. You just dance and have fun. I have videos where the instructor is blabing all the time and they stop to walk around and see what everyone else is doing. Richard gives encouragement, sings, & jokes but he never stops working with you. That's what I think makes a good workout. And to see so many other overweight no-names who are energized and excited just helps me be more determined to continue. I think this tape is the best balance between fun and work to date, and I have more than enough other programs in my own video library to go by. If you are looking for a good way to build your strength and endurance THIS IS IT!!!

2-0 out of 5 stars Changes routines too fast
I've done a lot of dancing, but Richard changes the routines very quickly with very little explanation. This video is confusing and would not be good for your knees if you're doing it on a carpeting living room because there's a lot of twisting.I gave it away after only going half way through it.However, for an excellent strength training video, try his Blast and Tone!It's extremely well done.Good routine, very well explained, appropriate cautions/reforcements suggested.I look forward to using every other day.And, it's working! ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Walk Away 3 mile super fat blaster
I have done the two mile in the past and wanted something more intense.I recently got the 3 mile super fat blaster tape and I love it.It cost a lot less than a gym membership and I can exercise any time of the day, on the spur of the moment even.I recommend Leslie's tapes to anyone, at any fitness level.I am a Diabetes Educator so I even recommend these tapes to my clients to help them improve their blood sugar control.Leslie's program is fabulous!

5-0 out of 5 stars I love this!!!
My delivery of walk away the pounds was recieved way faster then I though it would. Just got it today. I tryed it out and I love it I really needed a progam like this since I am so out of shape.
4-0 out of 5 stars Easy, fun home workout
I love WALK AWAY THE POUNDS!! That's exactly what you'll do if you use the tapes regularly.The set comes with a 1 mile-get up and get started, 2 mile-high calorie burn and 3 mile-super fat burn. This set also includes a pair of weighted balls that make the workouts more challenging. They are easy to hold and are of about 2 lbs each. I would recommend this tape for anyone who wants to get in shape and can't get to the gym. Great, easy to do home workout! ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Great for beginners
This video is okay if don't want something too intense.I prefer a workout where I can really feel the burn and this one just didn't do it for me.I do think, however, that this is a great video for beginners.

4-0 out of 5 stars WoW!
A friend recommended this video to me. I was kind of skeptical to try it. As you know what works for one doesn't necessarily work for another. But, I tried it and it worked for me too!Give it a try, I know I am glad I did.

5-0 out of 5 stars Tough Tape!
I have been a fan of Tami Lee since I purchased the Abs of Steel video (so many years ago I can't remember when!). I have had the I Want Those Abs video for over 5 years and have been using it faithfully.

5-0 out of 5 stars Just in time for Winter!
This is my first WATP video, but I started at the highest mile because I am an intermediate/advanced exerciser so I knew I needed something high intensity to get my heart rate going, but mostly I was looking for variety in my workout.And I must say, I just love this video.It is the only video I own that MAKES me want to do it.I truly enjoy working out, but when I find a workout that makes it fun and mixes things up, I know I hit the jackpot.This workout can be perfect for most exercisers, although beginners probably want to start with her starter videos and gradually work up to the Super Challenge.Leslie is a good instructor, but as most have mentioned, she does talk quite a bit and has a very annoying laugh.But its about the workout, not the sound of her voice, and in that, WATP Super Challenge accomplishes alot.I hope to buy more of her videos in the future.

5-0 out of 5 stars Awesome
The 4 mile super challenge is great! I did it for the first time with my mother today and we both agreed it went by so fast.Leslie lets you know when you've reached each mile.There is so much energy in the whole group.They really keep you motivated.One thing that annoyed me is the music in the warmup and beginning of the workout.You can fix that by muting your television, though.My mother and I totally recommend this workout! We are going to do it twice a week :o) and the other days alternate with her other dvds that we own (1-3 mile walk, Walk and Jog, Walk and Kick, and Power Mile). I hope to lose weight doing this and eating better.After reading the previous reviews on how people lost weight doing this I'm convinced it will help me too!

4-0 out of 5 stars Intense workout
Very good, very intense workout. I've got about 8 of Leslie Sansone's DVDs now. I use this one about once a week because it is longer than the others (60 min) and because I'm usually drenched with sweat at the end of it. It's got her core moves (marching, kicks, side steps, knee lifts), but she has jazzed things up a bit.It's a good pace and a great workout.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great video!!
Denise does it again.Hard to top her when it comes to spot toning.I like her chatter as it gets you through the workout
5-0 out of 5 stars I love this ab video!
I will still swear that Denise's "Super Stomachs" is my favorite ab video of all time but Get Fit Fast Abs is my number two.This video has three short 10-15 minute levels which is great for those who don't have a lot of time to devote to working out.The excercises are slow and controlled which makes them challenging.Denise spends a lot of time with her back ups demonstrating the correct form and is very motivating in all the right parts when you feel like giving up.I highly recommend this video if you want to see fast results from a short period of excercise time.

2-0 out of 5 stars Denise is no longer allowed in my house
my husband has heard enough about me complaining that Denise Austin makes videos that seem to put the body at risk, and these ab workouts might help some, but they are very hard on the lower back and caused my intense pain, i will not keep using this video, and think many people will agree that this video is not the best ab video for all levels, it is a typical Denise Austin video that will allow you and grate on your nerves, as she does so easily...try something else! ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Great! Definately does the Job
I think this tape is really great and 8 min is short enough that you can work it into your routine 3-4 times a week. I have a tendency to gain weight on my upper body, after doing this video for about a month I have noticed a difference!

5-0 out of 5 stars The most practical way to tone up
This is an exellent way to trim and tone up your body in only 8 minutes time. My parents got this tape back when I was younger [I'm only 14] and I watched my mom do it all the time. But when I got older I started doing it and it was awesome my abs were actully harder and tighter then before! But unfortunitly the tape was recently eaten by my vcr, but of course I loved this so much I went on good ol Amazon and orderd the dvd package which includes 8 minute abs, buns, thighs, and arms, but I havent recieved it yet.But if your concidering getting this I highly recommend getting the whole 8 minute workout pack which I mentioned above because it's around the same price of this one tape but you get all the workouts on 2 dvds. Bottom line this 8 minute abs is a practical way to trim and shape up your body in no time.

5-0 out of 5 stars Worth the money and your time
If you don't have 8 minutes every day to devote to doing these simple, low impact, user friendly exercises, let's face it, you're probably not motivated to do ANY exercises.

"Remember what Joseph Pilates said," instructor Ana Caban says. "'Youwill feel better in 10 sessions, look better in 20 sessions, and have a completely new body in 30 sessions.'" Pilates has become very popular and for good reason. By working the core muscles (the abdominal and back muscles in the center of your body) you improve strength and posture and developa lean, long line.Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Great rehab workout
I took a two-year hiatus from rigorous workouts after seriously injuring both legs from knee down--shins, achilles, ankles (don't ask). This workout not only enhances flexibility the length of my legs and into my ankles without stressing the ankles like an elastic band Pilates workout would, but also effectively works the muscles in my thighs, buns and abs, where I need it. This workout is an all around safe and effective choice for a true beginner or someone in need of rehab, like me.
5-0 out of 5 stars Not intimidating or condescending
How many times have you watched an exercise video hosted by a bouncy, perky blonde with a plastic smile making you feel like a fat, lazy slob? Or maybe it was an arrogant Hollywood trainer with that "fitter than thou" sneer... these instructors just don't seem like real people with real lives outside the gym, do they?
5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent workout
My piano teacher first introduced me to Pilates and I do some kind of pilates workout almost every day now. I absolutely love to do pilates, unlike regular exercise. (I do NOT love to exercise. NO running, no weight lifting, no biking, ect.)

5-0 out of 5 stars Love it - wish it were on DVD!!!
I have owned this tape for 10 years - bought it from a Newport News catalogfor $10 at the time. MAN do I wish I had been doing it for the past 10 years!! Now 38, I am really feeling the "approaching 40" expansion of my hips & thighs; and was devastated when I measured and found that my THIGHS were the size my WAIST was when I was 23. Boy does that suck.
4-0 out of 5 stars Solid workout for thighs and hips
This workout burns the side thighs and hips very nicely! The rhythm of the counting was off way too frequently, and that was distracting, but I now just turn down the volume so I follow the visual and count on my own. Three sets of ten for most exercises, easy enough. Doing the hamstring lifts are so much more efficient with added ankle weights, as they suggest. And I am sorry the stretching is so brief. I pause the tape to do a deeper stretch while I'm heated up so I can keep my muscles long.
4-0 out of 5 stars Get sleek, sexy, and shapely legs! I did!
I am a big fan of this tape. The moves are simple but effective and you will feel the burn. Doing these exercises along with cardio will get you results. My previously chunky legs are so beautiful. There is no chatty instructor.Kathy Kaehler, the trainer, will briefly show you how to do the exercises, and then you just hear counting, brief tips from Kathy and Claudia is shown in several different frames doing the exercise. The style of the video is kind of artsy, but nothing is too distracting not even the music.

4-0 out of 5 stars You Won't Feel Like a Dummy -- You Will Get Into Shape
Although I generally don't like thinking of myself as a "dummy," I take good information from wherever I can get it. This regimen depicts step-by-step instructions for 12 weight training exercises. The instructor, Tracy York, is no dummy, and makes the work out easy to understand, without talking down. The video incorporates both upper and lower body exercises to help tone muscles and burn more calories per day - which can lead to weight loss. Don't be surprised if you gain weight. Fat weighs less than muscle, and you will be adding muscle.
4-0 out of 5 stars Weight Training for Gentle Rehabilitation
Having waited several years for permission from my doctor to work my upper body, this DVD was an excellent beginning.I was a strong walker, but the lower body exercises (without dumbbells as your own weight is enough to start with) gave me a pleasant burn.I was very pleased with the slow pace of the video, and the perfect form of the instructor.I began with 1-pound weights to get my muscles used to the movement, then cautiously increased to 2-pound weights.I could feel the weight yet be comfortable that I was safely building a foundation.
5-0 out of 5 stars Good for a dummy/beginner
This tape is excellent for dummies. I bought it on the amazon website. I never did anykind of excercise before. So, this tape is a good start for me. But, I intend to try out more tapes for intermediate workouts. But, I'm glad i started out with this tape. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Something for everyone
If you can get past the dated outfits and nondescript music of the eighties, you will probably enjoy this workout, no matter what your level. The premise of this workout is that a longer, lighter workout burns more fat than a quick, intense one. So the goal here is to keep your heart rate at the lower end to allow a longer workout, thus more fat-burning. But if you are advanced, there's no reason you can't add more range of motion (or strap on wrist and ankle weights) for more rewarding results; if you're a beginner, just turn the tape off when you've had enough but DON'T forget to cool down a little with a little walking around the house). Enclosed in the video is a "Fat Burning Nutritional Tips" booklet, which pretty much advocates high carbs, low fat - she doesn't differentiate between good and bad fats, but she DOES recommend your carbs be the quality kind - whole grains, fresh fruits and veggies, etc.
5-0 out of 5 stars Fun low-impact workout
This is a 40 minute, mostly low-impact workout.It is divided into 6 sections.There are form pointers and modifiers, even basic human anatomy lessons on the names of the muscles worked - such as the quadriceps, latissimus (sp?) dorsi, deltoids, etc.I like these lessons; I, for one, have heard of the names but don't know where they are located, and after doing this workout, I can finally put a "face to a name."This workout burns fat AND educates you!There are also two places to check your pulse and two places to check your exertion rate.
5-0 out of 5 stars Best Energizing Workout Video
This video is awesome.I feel so energized after I do it and it keeps my energy up for the rest of the day.I have been doing the video for 2 weeks now and have lost 5 pounds! It really works your behind and hips. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars perfect for beginners to intermediate
This is a great workout.I was a rank beginner when i started and i could manage the first workout right away.Doing it daily I built up strength to do the second workout, which was my first introduction to yoga.I alternated the two at first; later I began to doboth workouts together, a total of 40 minutes.After using this dvd for about 4 months I had dropped two sizes (of course also radically changing my diet).

I used this video along with short walks almost exclusively to lose weight and the pounds and inches melted away. I couldn't believe how well it toned my whole body, not just one area. After a year of doing it and finally looking like a swimsuit model, I starting using the morning excercise programs on alternating days and had phenominal results. I lost 25 lbs in all. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars the perfect introduction to yoga
This tape was given to me by a mother of a child in my daughter's dance class.Learning she did yoga and noticing she looked phenomenal while chasing 3 children aged 5 and younger just like I was, I asked her for her opinion on yoga for a beginner and this is the tape she gave me.(Giving videos to the interested is now my "philanthropy" in her honor!)It took a little while for me to even try it, but when I did, I was completely blown away by yoga and have done it almost every day since Feb 1, 2006 because it feels so good!To me it is like a massage from the inside out.As a mother with 3 small children, I really appreciated the slow, and should I call it, sensual movements, that require surprising strength.For me with my young kids, I think I relished the thought of having the TIME to do such slow and sensual poses, but I have learned to fit it in.From this video, I got good solid instruction on basic yoga and learned how yoga enhances my life instead of being yet another obligation.I have since purchased many new videos and do yoga every day and feel like I have found the ultimate mind/body answer for the rest of my life.And by the way, I didn't even know I was searching for a "mind/body" answer until discovering yoga.Yoga is really good stuff and this video is an ideal place to begin!

5-0 out of 5 stars great video
One of my favorites.I seem to almost always grab this one out of my library of dvds when I have the time for it.Its about 50 minutes long but seems shorter, time flies.Its a great well rounded video and is great even for a beginner (which would be me). I don't know about helping you lose weight but its really an enjoyable practice.Beautiful scenery also.

1-0 out of 5 stars Sleeping Pill!Not a workout!
This is the most boring, unmotivating, uninteresting workout I have ever owned, yoga or other.I am exceptionally disappointed, as it was voted best workout DVD of 2005 by Self magazine. I have only been practicing for a few weeks, having fallen in love with Fit Tv's Namaste workouts, I expected the same great music, flowing rhythm, and steady pace.Instead, this is an incredibly slow-moving, dull workout that doesn't even challenge me, a true beginner.I adore yoga, and wanted a longer, challenging workout--this is not it.I'm back to my FREE FitTv Namaste workouts, until I can find somethng better! ...

Editorial Review

Do you envy ballet dancers their long, lean bodies and graceful, elegant movements? This beautifully produced exercise video was developed by Peter Martins and the New York City Ballet with the New York Sports Club. First you watch the rippling muscles of four gorgeous ballet dancers (two men and two women) performing warm-up moves to classical ballet music. Martins uses ballet terminology in his cuing and no technique is taught, so it's look-and-follow if you have no previous ballet training. Next you get down on a mat for slow lower-body stretches. A difficult abdominal series is next, followed by "floor barre" exercises to tone the thighs and buttocks while still using the abdominals. After introducing moves to strengthen the back and upper body, Martins runs through a series of standing exercise segments using various ballet movements to strengthen the legs and postural muscles. The workout is divided into 17 short sections, which may give it a disjointed feeling if you're used to more continuity. At the end is a bonus sequence with profiles of the four performers, all dancers with the New York City Ballet. We get to watch them performing, practicing, and eating. One dancer makes the point that ballet is very athletic, but because it's supposed to look ethereal, the hard work stays hidden from the audience. If you love ballet (even just watching it), you'll enjoy this workout. (By the way, Sarah Jessica Parker introduces the video but does not have any other role in it.) Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Elegant and artistic--definitely not your standard workout DVD!
The New York City Ballet Workout has more in common with a film playing at your local art house theatre than the average workout DVD.It is artistically masterful--a work of art in light and shadow and movement of the human body.But is it a good workout?
5-0 out of 5 stars love it!
I love this workout. It is so relaxing and has increased my flexibility. Even when I am tired, I can do this workout and feel energized and relaxed at the same time. At first I had a difficult time, because I had not done any ballet before. However, after about two weeks of doing the workout three times of week, my balance and flexibility were beginning to improve, and my legs became more familiar with the positions.

This is a very well-produced, entertaining, visually pleasing video. I haven't yet worked out with it, as it looks a bit difficult for a complete novice like myself, however, I am inspired to try. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars My Favourite Workout
I love this workout.The look of the tape changed, and I had lost my first copy and thought I wouldn't find it again, but here it is.I have lost wieght, and gained muscle and slim shape with this workout.For graduation from university, I wanted to wear a tight lycra dress and this tape gave me the shape to wear my dress with nothing dragging behind!Thank you Tamilee!

5-0 out of 5 stars THE BEST!!
I have at least 20 exercise videos and not too much time to work out, and this one is TOPS.This video is short, intense, SAFE for my bad knees, and extremely effective.Be ready to have to increase your protein intake after doing this one a few times, because it'll really work your muscles.I just wore out my original video and have ordered two more before it's no longer available.You'll feel ALOT stronger and have better posture for having done it.I can't recommend it enough.Good luck!Nita ...

4-0 out of 5 stars Humor Your Stress
This tape is an outstanding reminder about not taking life too seriously.She has excellent suggestions for dealing with common stressors and how to lighten up.I recommend it for anyone in a stressful situation at work or in their personal life.

5-0 out of 5 stars Loretta Does It Again
I work out to Loretta's "Joy of Stress" video and now I iron while watching "Humor Your Stress" when I need to lighten up and refocus my attitude. Loretta's insights are profound, yet she delivers in such a funny way they are remarkably effective in inspiring change. And everyone around me benefits when I get that adjustment in my "happymeter".

5-0 out of 5 stars Helpful and hilarious
I'm not very high on self-help or motivational videos of any kind, so I wasn't overly excited about having to watch a video about stress during a recent workshop meant to reenergize me for the coming months.I have to say that I did heartily enjoy this video, though.Actually, when I first saw a video by L. LaRoche on the agenda, I was trying to figure out why in the world Lyndon LaRouche was making a video about stress.Of course, this is actually Loretta LaRoche, and she turned out to be one of the funniest speakers I have ever heard.She does present some useful ideas for handling stress, from common sense notions to such interesting ideas as giving yourself a big "ta da" every so often and twirling while delivering bad news.These more audacious suggestions are not things one would really want to do in real life, particularly Negative Neds such as myself, but the general idea of her message is what matters.LaRoche does encourage positive thinking and suggests way in which you can get more joy and less stress out of both work and life in general.Even if you get absolutely nothing from this video in terms of lowering your stress level, it's still worth watching for the laughs LaRoche provides; she is hilarious, much funnier than most comedians. ...

Editorial Review

Four of Jane Fonda's instructors take turns presenting an energetic 45-minute, moderate-intensity step workout. The frequent switching of instructors adds variety and interest, and the different teaching styles keep the workout feeling fresh. The choreography starts out very simple, and as the workout progresses, so do the moves, although the patterns never get terribly complicated. Each pattern is taught clearly, practicing the base moves before adding on arms, styling, or intensity. The cueing is excellent. Occasionally one of the participants demonstrates lower-intensity modifications in case you get tired or need to adapt a move for your fitness level; another shows how to raise the intensity for more experienced steppers. After the step workout, Fonda herself leads a relaxing 15-minute stretch--no extreme flexibility required. She repeats stretches, because you can take a stretch deeper if you do it more than once. This is an excellent tape for an intermediate exerciser with some step experience who wants an effective, enjoyable workout and a nice, long stretch. Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Awesome Workout Tape!
I purchased this tape on ebay earlier this year. It has become my favorite step aerobic tape. The music is great. The tempo is excellent. The instructors give great cues. This tape is great for a person new to step aerobics. However, the instructors provide modifications for the intermediate or advanced stepper. I agree with the other reviewer that I am drenched in sweat and have to head to the showers right after! The stretch segment is great also. Worth the purchase. I keep crossing my fingers that it will be released on dvd eventually.

5-0 out of 5 stars One of the Best There Is
I love this video as much as Jane's first step video (Step & Abs).This one has an intermediate music tempo - around 124 beats per minute.To me this is wonderful.Too many modern step videos have tempos as fast as 134 beats per minute!I just don't believe that's safe.I love everything about this video, even the music.I love warming up WITHOUT a step.You do not stretch before this workout, but you get such an excellent stretch afterwards that I think it's fine.The stretch portion is excellent!The whole tape is a perfect length.As soon as this one comes out on DVD, I will buy it immediately.It is one of my top 5 favorite step videos that has withstood the test of time.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent Workout Tape
I bought this tape a few years ago in a discount bin. I love it. I am at about an intermediate fitness level and I found the tape to be both challenging and fun. I love the fact that the instructions rotate every few minutes. It keeps my attention and makes the workout seem much faster than it is. I also really enjoy the stretching at the end of the tape. ...
