When released in 1987, Start up was sold as " Limited Edition" with $7.00 worth of rebates in side the video box. Though a wonderful workout and very popular, few people today remember it.
Start up was heavily promoted and was the only workout to be advertised on the back of a cereal box.

This brief workout is more than a warm-up but less than a full workout. It has no aerobics, but has segments to tone the arms, waist, hips, thighs, stomach, and buttocks. There is a strong emphasis on exercising with proper posture and there is a lot of stretching.






You will see to Jane's right is Peter Dudly, the loud-speaking aerobics choreographer from "Workout Challenge." Also, Kim Blank, the woman to the far left in the front row with the blue body suit with pink top in "Low Impact Aerobic Workout" is in the same spot in this program with the teal leotard and red tights/leg warmers.



This tape was originally going to be released as "Jane Fonda's Stretch Workout" in 1985 and then planned for a 1986 release titled "Jane Fonda's Stretch and Tone workout." The video was finally issued in 1987 as a shortened workout class. That is why there is a lot of weird editing. And notice at the end credits, there are scenes that were not in the video. This tape was issued on VHS and Beta video cassette.






This was originally intended to be a limited time release, but was re-released when A*Vision acquired rights to Jane's videos. Two cover editions were released for the VHS and one for the Beta. Both contain stereo sound.
The music is a wonderfully classical with an 80's electronic twist by Dean Correa. I personally use this workout every morning before doing any other of Jane's workouts and truly recommend it.
