«Love It!»
I love this work out! The step aerobics are great for any level, for you can adjust difficulty by arm movements, or higher step. I have been stepping for years and found this in a thrift store for only $1. Well yes it was well worth it. The moves are fun, and the ab routine at the end is really great!

«Better instructions would have been helpful»
I am totally new to aerobics and was looking forward to this video tape as a refreshing change from Pilates. But after having done the exercises several times, I would not recommend this tape to a beginner like myself.
Positives first: Jane Fonda's instructions to the abdominal workout are terrific. She has a natural talent for this and is therefore very easy to follow and listen to. I will continue to do these exercises, as I can feel and see them working. If only I could say the same about the aerobic workout....The aerobic workout simply doesn't work for me, due to lack of proper instructions. I wish the instructors would spend less time exclaiming "Give it to me!" and "All right!" and more time explaining the actual moves. Like another reviewer mentions, it is sometimes hard to follow the moves as you see the instructors almost exclusively from the front. It would have made a big difference if they would have stood in front of mirrors. Again, I am new to this, and I am sure the video works well for more experienced people. I, on the other hand, find myself just following the moves the best I can, and I am sure glad there is no one to video-tape me -- especially since my three-year-old daughter, upon seeing me doing the aerobic steps in a rather uncordinated manner and swinging my arms at random, said: "Mommy, you're no good at this!"

«Intermediate Level Stepper»
You can get an excellent workout and have fun doing it. The level of difficulty can be adjusted for your fitnesss level. Good music and easy to follow steps. Even though this is an old tape, it still gets the job done.
