A solid traditional tough
workout!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 |
