Some things to know: On the low impact routine, Jane Fonda isn't even there, it's led by three other ladies. The Basic workout is good, it's short and includes lots of squats. I was a complete mess trying to keep up with the steps and really just wanted to get down to doing more strenuous work, which happens in the "Abs, Buns and Thighs" sculpting workout. This one uses simple hand weights and easy moves and leaves out the silly "step-step-kick-step-aaaaaand again". There's a full body stretch with Jane that pales in comparison to all the popular
Pilates and Yoga DVD's. One other thing that bothers me with exercise DVD's is the lack of concern for repeat watching. So that 5 minute lecture from Jane Fonda on how I should strech, drink more water and get rid of my body ideals before the workout gets annoying to have to FFwd through. Every. Time. They should construct these so that you only need to push 2 buttons before the actual exercise starts. Also, my reason for ordering these is the women (though hideous in tan hose with thong leotards complete with belts, big hair and gold jewelry) are real women. I didn't want the current workout look of fake boobs, or a b-list celebrity showing me how to strip as exercise. These ladies made me laugh, but they kicked my ass. I'd take 80's tacky over Carmen Electra sleaze any day.

Some reviewers of the three re-released Jane Fonda exercise videos have used their reviews to support or explain-away Ms. Fonda's behavior during the Vietnam War. That being so, perhaps a comment from the opposite perspective will not be thought inappropriate.
These videos are a lot of fun and they are well done. There is no reason not to buy and enjoy them today. It was a different story when they first came out.
Ms. Fonda enjoyed a huge post-Hanoi Jane success 30 years ago. These exercise videos (and her exercise records and books) reportedly earned her $15 million. Back then America's mothers, wives, girlfriends and sisters elevated and enriched Ms. Fonda in a bit of perfidy that to this day leaves at least one of the happy few wondering about the girls we left behind. The war is long over but that was a stunning personal betrayal to many by the women they loved that still hurts.
Five stars so this comment will not affect the good overall content ratings of these videos.

This is an excellent workout DVD for someone who hasn't exercised for ages because it's easy and fun to follow. Good way to start a workout routine and to boost the energy.

I recently dug up my old workout tapes and found the three pack of Jane Fonda smiling up at me. I figured I would pop one in and give it a try, see if the old girl could still give me a run for my money. You know what? I had a fantastic workout. Here is the deal, three tapes: Low impact aerobics & Stretch, Abs, Buns & Thighs and Total Body Sculpting. Each tape has two different workouts on it. The genius of this trio is that it comes with a workout plan, at least my tapes did and I assume the DVD does too. Because you have two workouts on each tape, if you follow the weekly plan and vary your workouts it keeps the "workout boredom blues" at bay. I assumed that a workout tape from 1995 would not be that great compared to all the "high impact yoga" and Pilates that is so popular now but it was refreshingly simple and fun!

Almost 10 years ago, I got these in video form. As a beginner, who had a total lifestyle change to include my diet, Mrs. Fonda's Personal Trainer series really helped me lose weight, tone up, and be fit. I lost 20 lbs and have kept it off. I also had success after I had my son when I used her videos in combination with a 2 mile run 5 days a week. I also recieved complements on how my body looked, many people would ask me if I was a gymnast!:) Her workouts and fitness philosophy are right on. I highly recommend this series for anyone just starting out. They are easy on the joints, and have three women who demonstrate basic, intermediate, and advanced levels in each workout, as well as lead some of the workouts, so its not all Jane. The workouts really have some great basic moves for learning about the body in toning and stretch. The aerobics get the heart rate up, and the moves are simple. The aerobics section does require a little bit of space, enough to walk about 5 paces in each direction. I've moved up in my fitness level, but I still use this series for toning, stretch and when I just want to burn a few extra calories. I alternate my workouts with other videos like Gilad, Kaehler, and the 8min(ABS/BUNS)etc series, and I recommend these too.
